Let’s go Rome! For those of you who don’t know, I am off to England and Italy tomorrow for three weeks of social and quasi-religious fulfilment. (Read: seeing friends, drinking cider, and buying ...
Backbeat, the word is on the street
Another one of my Weekly Scoop stories hit newsstands this week. It’s about Paris Hilton and how she’s, like, so totally over, you know? The issue is dated Feb. 6, 2006 and features the ...
And my destination, makes it worth the while
Considering my job (and maybe for all writers), it’s extremely bizarre to experience a week in which you are both prolific and totally unproductive at the very same time. I spent the past few ...
Don’t worry about me, I’ll be fine
Well, colour me surprised. Whereas most of my blog entries go relatively unnoticed (and certainly un-commented on), yesterday’s ridiculous rant caused an absolute avalanche of commentary. I’ve ...

Reeeeeeee wind
Halloween is the best, isn’t it? News of the day? The site’s being redesigned. Sorta. During the next week or so I’ll be reorganizing like a mofo, resetting the hit counter and ...
