RUMORS: Ithaca Mayor dating a Kardashian?

Oh and don't worry it's not Khloe...she and Lamar are like a rock. Sturdy and round. Some people have been trying to throw viewers off course by saying that Kim Kardashian is dating Jeremy Lin of the New York Knicks. But we all know she is trying to steer clear of athletes and singers due to her past failed relationships. And really...Jeremy Lin? Well all know Harvard sucks. Oh and he's ugly. Really really ugly. Kim's shallow...we all know that too. It seems that now she has decided to enter into politics, but word on the street is Svante Myrick played intramural football for three years at Cornell. The couple was seen canoodling in the Wegman's "prepared foods" section. We think that Kim is intrigued by Myrick's background and his giant, well endowed, Cornell degree.
