    Why go visit your parents on Easter or Passover when you know they were out all Thursday night celebrating the legal drinking age of Randy Harris?

    At a party hosted by Jay and Anne McInerney at the 21 Club, younger and older generations of the big names– Rockefellers, the Bushes (not the Texas bunch, though), Koonings– raised a glass of champagne that could only taste like Madison and 5th Avenue champagne could and toasted Randy Harris.

    Mr. Harris is tied up in the world of Hearsts, Kings, Shaws, and McInerneys, which makes him automatically interesting enough to dedicate a whole book about. Mr. Harris has taken the “Hearst” part out of his name, though his mother, Anne Randolph Hearst McInerney, kept it and passed it down to her daughter Amanda, who was also in attendance. We’re still not how close Mr. McInerney’s relation is to his stepson..but apparently enough so to throw him a lavish party.

    It's worthless trying to Google these two: all you get are results from conspiracy theory sites about the Illuminati.

    So Ms. McInerney is the mother of Randy Harris from her son King Harris. It's like a confusing episode of Gossip Girl.

    No disrespect to Lydia, but we'd pick drinking with her mom and the SNL producer over her anytime.

    Did you know how many Rockefellers there still are in New York? It's like they own the whole city.
