CNN: ‘We Dropped the Ball’
Networks criticized for lack of Anna Nicole Smith coverage. I think that goes hand-in-hand with CNN’s entertainment coverage Who is Prince Frederic von Anhalt? and (very important!) story about how New photos show Smith in bed with Bahamian immigration minister.
I’ve tried to get off their list …
I have little to report today. It was my “day off” — a Tuesday, no teaching, just dissertation work … supposedly. February 13, the day before my least favorite Hallmark Holiday of the year. My colleagues and I have discussed … Continue reading
Smooth and aromatic with a hint of light citrus

Take me to the other side …
I not only finished “G” but I also got through “H,” which only had one entry: Hole. This is not to say that I do not have any other music by performers starting with “H,” merely that if I do, … Continue reading

I’ll start with an L.M. Montgomery quote that I “stole” from Jasmine: “I’d like to add some beauty to life. I don’t exactly want to make people know more…though I understand that is the noblest ambition…but I’d love to make … Continue reading
Let’s talk about two things that suck
1) the NY Times article on Lost and Heroes (among other TV shows): “The Unseen and Unexplained, Inching Closer to the Truth” by Alessandra Stanley. To quote the author and article: “‘Lost,’ on ABC tonight, is the most intriguing of … Continue reading
I’ll begin a lot of sentences with “I”
A quick summary of the day. It started with a giant “FUCK!” The exclamation, not an enjoyable encounter.

I’ve got imitation ice cream. Yum.
I finished 23 hours of so of “E” this afternoon when I made it through two albums of Evanescence. Here’s the thing, it’s just light nu-metal with a female vocalist, and it accomplishes the same thing as those generic-world-music-female-vocalist tracks … Continue reading
