Because when you dump a bucket of buzzkill on us, what do we have left to blog about? Eh? I ask you that!

I got a Valentine!
I know, that title is a thrill a minute, isn’t it? But still, I’m very excited.
This is the first Valentine I’ve gotten from someone who isn’t a married man this century!
sulz over at Bloggerdygook made me my very own, hand-written Valentine, accessorized with a lovely bulldozer! And one notes, one does, that in the first draft, she’d neglected a prime blog-pimping opportunity. No doubt inspired by my example, this oversight was immediately corrected and replaced with the above, blog-pimpatory, improvement.
This is part of the massive Hand-Written Valentine project, whose object frankly puzzles us, for lo, we are far too lazy to do anything of the kind if there’s no free Macbook Air, Urban Fare credit card, or black opal bracelet at the end of it.
I want to send you a handwritten, personalised message! I shall write you a special message on a piece of paper (or not? Hehe), take a photo of it, then upload it to one of my posts during the month of February 2008.
Why would you want a handwritten valentine from me?
1. You can have a look at my handwriting. I think handwriting is something very personal, especially in this age of technology! And my handwriting is not consistent, never the same twice!
2. You can receive a personalised message from me. Just for you. Nobody else. How special is that!
3. It will totally make your day. It has to, otherwise I’d be very upset.
If you want to put the poor girl to work again, toiling into the wee hours, feverishly pumping out personalized calligraphic meisterwerk after personalized calligraphic meisterwerk, it’s your conscience, not mine. Pop over to Bloggerdygook and leave her a request in the comments section.
I got mine. Now you get yours.

Nick Denton and Julia Allison: a portrait of the Dark Lord as a young Media Whore
The New York media world is even more incestuous than we imagined.
Can this really be true? Is Nick Denton, the Dark Lord of Gawker Media, really nothing more than the sum of Julia Allison posts? It would explain so much, so very much.
With her shockingly revealing photomontage, Vangroover‘s very own Civixen, in her Gawker alter ego Hez, has dared to open the lid on Pandora’s very box, when most sensible people wouldn’t go near it without a full HAZMAT suit.
Who can we turn to for informed insight on the revolting details of this deal?
- RentYourSoul :
Pierre Ayotte, noted in his press release as a “friendly upcoming Internet opportunist”–i.e. not The Devil Himself, just to be clear–would like to rent your soul for ten bucks a week.
- An esteemed German thought leader :
Johann Faustus was born in Roda in the province of Weimar, of God-fearing parents. Although he often lacked common sense and understanding, at an early age he proved himself a scholar, mastering not only the Holy Scriptures, but also the sciences of medicine, mathematics, astrology, sorcery, prophesy, and necromancy.
- Blues legend Robert Johnson :
Many have dubbed Johnson the father of modern rock and roll. Of all early bluesmen, Robert Johnson can be considered one of the more prolific. Although he did not live long enough to become as popular as many of the other earlier blues artists, his music has influenced a number of musicians who dramatically changed music history.
- Angelyne :
I am everything glamorous and I love HOT PINK! I love pizza, chocolate, angels, and aliens, did you know they talk to me? I have many friends. Ooooh have you seen my art? Did you know I was almost the Governor of California? They would have had to make me a BUST by the Hollywood sign! I have thousands of fans and can’t seem to keep men off of me. You can buy my phenomonal self portraits! Join my fan club!

what time is it?
What a week! And it’s only Wednesday!
Bonus: Guess What Time It Is!
Hacked and hacking, plus super bonus rotten weather meaning I have nothing better to do than sit inside and fret about my poor, dead blogs, the WP.com bug that is replacing all my P tags with DIV tags, and the 1400 people who came to this blog so far today looking for the sex tape of a drug-addled, quite possibly insane woman who is, besides, bloated and criss-crossed with track marks, methface, and surgical scars. Way to go, porn surfers. Your karma must be even more toxic than Britney right about now.
Plus, I’m really, really cranky. If only I could AFFORD some nice brandy, I might calm down. Well, anything’s possible, right?
