This seems too good to be true. link via the mini-wetlog

Hot Skirt

Hot Skirt April 27th, 2001 @ 10:30 am PDT

Matthew Paul Schofield reached under a toilet cubicle during an office Christmas party and lit colleague Gareth MacFadyen’s Hawaiian skirt on fire. MacFadyen was killed and his girlfriend was seriously burned by the “prank.” A judge sent Schofield to jail for two years and told him: “I believe you were drunk and out of control.” […]

Bada Bing Sopranos

Bada Bing Sopranos April 26th, 2001 @ 8:44 am PDT

James Gandolfini, on the family: “When you meet people, you don’t know if they’re Mafia or not – they’re just gentlemen who dress nice.” Buy Sopranos stuff: HBO store – official site SopranoLand.com – fan site link via haha – no, serious

Sex, Lies, and Monogamy

Sex, Lies, and Monogamy April 26th, 2001 @ 8:26 am PDT

Women only stay with men for security, and men only stay with women for sex. It’s a cynical view of human relationships, but researchers now say it is the driving force behind the evolution of monogamy — and women started it. By offering sex all the time, females in monogamous species disguise whether they are […]

Now with 33% More Sodium!

Now with 33% More Sodium! April 24th, 2001 @ 3:33 pm PDT

You really should be reading Über each and every day. I can’t stress this enough. I’m not kidding. Seriously. I stopped reading for a few weeks and, man, I don’t want to tell you the things that started happening to me. It was bad. Real bad. But now I’m reading Über again and everything is […]

New Words

New Words April 24th, 2001 @ 8:34 am PDT

The Pseudodictionary is full of words (and phrases) that aren’t really words but should be. In the early 80s we used to call these sniglets, a term coined by, I think, Rich Hall of HBO’s Not Necessarily the News. I first found the Psuedodictionary several months ago when there were only a handful of words […]

Soopah High Rise

Soopah High Rise April 23rd, 2001 @ 10:15 am PDT

“If you can send a man to the moon you can certainly build a tower for 100,000 people …” Shanghai plans to build a 3,700 ft skyscraper! Dwarfing Kuala Lumpur’s twin Petronas Towers, the world’s tallest buildings at 1,483ft high, it would be set in a gigantic, wheel-shaped base incorporating shopping malls and car parks.

Bloggy Goodness

Bloggy Goodness April 23rd, 2001 @ 9:05 am PDT

This is why I read Romenesko’s Obscure Store and Reading Room: Sisters Go Bonkers on Plane after Boozing It Up: The twin sisters, who are models, went from shouting to fighting. They smoked in the bathroom and used perfume to mask the odor, says an affidavit. One said to another: “I’ve gotta get out of […]

Pleasure == Surprise

Pleasure == Surprise April 22nd, 2001 @ 8:49 pm PDT

When it comes to having fun, the element of surprise may be more important than most people realise. A great link from Follow Me Here … And in completely unrelated news, I grabbed Dave Egger’s book A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius at Target earlier today. I got a bit of a sunburn, too.

Did I mention that I saw Blow and heartBREAKeRS a few weeks ago? I didn’t think I did. Blow was a good flick … better if you’re in love with Johnny Depp. I’m not. Heartbreakers was a lot of fun, but certainly not amazing … better if you’re in love with Jennifer Love Hewitt. I’m […]
