One person from here I know is in mourning is Sidd. After all, it was George Plimpton in 1985 who, in a Sports Illustrated article, introduced the world to Sidd Finch.

Well, it looks like they edited the title to swap in his home # with his office #. But, if you want to see the original title of the article that has, what appears to be, Mr. Carlson's home #, click on Leagl's link, and, in the search box on the Fox News page, type in "Carlson" and you'll get the remnants of some sloppy website administration.

If, by this time, someone at Fox purged the website of the offending number, here is a screendump of my search:

Something I learned today
 
So this college friend of mine calls from way out of the blue to tell me he is spending twelve weeks in the City and would i like to visit him (hello!) and we get on the subject of hair. Apparnetly, our good friend Jerry, who was quite hairy , and quite isnt strong enough a word,. had lost all of his hair. which is not a shock consiering the fur level, which I unfortuntaley got to feel when one day, while I crashed at their place when between apartments, he decided to take his clothes off and crawl into bed and spoon me (shiver, so nasty), is on rogaine and has regrown his hair into "a gay hairstyle".

I did not know that stuff owrked. Glad to hear it does.

CArry on.

Those services suck, incidentally. Partner I work with has one, and I've given up and just started calling his cell when he's working from home. He's getting it disconnected because he's discovered that callers like emergency services (calling about a gas leak) and his kids' schools can't get through.

I dunno, he was in NYC, wasn't he? Those labs and stuff on L&O seem relatively well-lit. NYPD Blue also has good lighting.

However, if he died on a trip to Miami or Vegas I fear for the investigation.

Here's my line-up:

8:00 p.m: The Lottery - a reality show based on the Shirley Jackson story.
8:30 p.m.: The Miller Lite Cat-Fight Girls disrobe very slowly
9:00 p.m: Live Executions of Criminals (1 hour)

The poop report (if you click on it) is hysterical. Sounds like something right off the FB.

Sphincterine: Ass Altoids By Hairy Pooter...Sphincterine Personal Refresher is pretty much spearmint mouthwash for your butt. It's an "all-natural" liquid that you wipe around the rings of Uranus with toilet paper (or a wash cloth, according to the directions... eww!), leaving a cool, tingly sensation down there that will instill confidence in even my horrible post-bathing suit underwear swampy ass.

When I first tried Sphincterine, it almost hurt, like my rectum was in the first stages of freezer burn. But the intense minty pain quickly subsided, and I was left with a wonderfully cool cornhole. It was the same feeling I get when I put sliced cucumbers on my eyelids, or aloe on sun-burned shoulders. Sphincterine is truly soothing and delightful.

Though I haven't tried them yet, Sphincterine also comes in travel-sized single use packets -- wetnaps, essentially. I am a regular user of wetnaps -- I keep them in my golf bag, just in case I need to I need to freshen up or clean some leakage down there in the middle of a particularly sweaty round.

And you can order a thong....

More E-Bay stuff
 
Weirdness on E-Bay...
INTERNET auction site eBay has been hit by a bizarre craze where people appear naked in reflections on goods they are selling.

Reflectoporn - the way exhibitionists get their nude bodies seen by millions around the world - swept America and has now spread to the UK.
Buyers browsing eBay have found busty naked women and fat nude men reflected in kettles, TVs, toasters, guitars and even knives and forks.
One regular eBay user said: "I was totally shocked when I realised what was in the reflection of a kettle I was looking at.
"At first it appeared to be an obscure shape, but then I realised it was the reflection of a naked woman holding a camera. It's hard to believe what some kinky people will get up to."

Kind of like breasticle day - only different.

Oh, come on.

When the batteries on the devices begin to run low, according to an announcement from Segway and the CPSC, there may not be enough power to keep the machine upright. Falls could happen if the rider speeds up abruptly, encounters an obstacle or continues to ride after receiving a low-battery alert.
Link. It's some kind of newsflash that when they run out of electricity, they're gonna fall over?

This is probably just a difference between the CPSC and NHTSA, because I don't see NHTSA recalling all motorcycles for identical reasons.

Another article suggested natural causes, as Robert apparently wasn't "into the excesses of the rock 'n roll lifestyle."

Speaking of, I was amused (and therefore must share) this NYTimes magazinearticle on the Starship--the shag-carpeted plane chartered by rock bands in the 70s to enjoy lobster dinners in towns other than the one they were playing. It came equipped with a fireplace and waterbed, as well.

Excerpt:

''The girls would get on the plane and fly to wherever the next show was,'' recalls Bruce Payne, the group's manager. ''Fathers two states over were calling the cops.''

It depends on the strength of your 9:00 content. Lethal injections? Yawn. Firing squad? Boring. If this is a sweeps period, electrocutions and hangings are the way to go. If you include Al Jazeera as a partner, you may even get some beheadings. Give the people what they want.

So can we win a day-time time slot with a sort of National Geographic "Executions from Around" the World Slot. More fun than seeing L'l Simba reduce bambi to burger!

(Edited to add: can we do a show right before hand, too, called "Amputations without Anethesia", perhaps with filming in Kabul)
