post pattern
i usually dont bother with this type of toxic thinking but i couldnt pass this one up. its nice to see the pro-dean algorithmically challenged "sponsored" links subverting the text of the op-ed.
auletta time
"The New Yorker's media writer comes out with a new book and talks to mb about the business, his articles, and learning to talk to the bosses."
signal corps
finalists in moveons ad contest.
commie as you are
commie rag commie symp commie nest
traded winded
(un)fortunately im not smart enough not to overrate myself or come up with game theory conundrums.
looking up
"Software now emerging analyzes search results and automatically sorts them into categories that, at a glance, present far more information than the typical textual list."

knicked up
wow. i cant believe im getting a major sports update from matt yglesias. scooped again. i dont even have a joke at my own expense. will talk about the trade once ive checked it out. cant say im a stephon marbury fan though.
smellavent
my new neighbors to the north (aka upstairs) have commenced with the unpardonable sin of cooking non-foul smelling items within noseshot. will their treachery never surcease?
dilly dally
one of the powers of the blogosphere which can be used and abused is a collective hammering down on someone in the media for shoddy misuse of their office. it seems this nedra pickler has been the ire of many for some weeks now. i dont doubt that theyve made her somewhat uncomfortable, or at least one would hope.
willing and alba
sure, 2003 was a breakout year for bloggers but we wont truly have made it into the american collective subconscious until some bloggers are featured on Entertainment Tonight. well, that wont be long now as Oliver Willis has announced his secret marriage to hollywood siren Jessica Alba. no word yet on where the happy couple are spending their honeymoon, or whether Alba has been notified of the preceding nuptials. a toast to The Willises, may the annulment be quick and painless. just dont break her heart, O-Dub.
arresting development
im glad to see that Arrested Development has been picked up for next year. ive found the episode to be hit or miss but its still the only new sitcom thats worth watching. actually, i dont think i could name any other new ones. my one wish for the show would be more David Cross. and props to Liza Minnelli, shes actually funny as an actress when shes not being portrayed as a pathetic old diva in the tabloids.but what inspired this post was the news that AD star portia di rossi is dating ringo starrs step daughter. and look, she has scruples. damn her. heres the girlfriends site.
