I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

He fell and pulled something in the semi, I think.

Art Crawl!!!

Okay - the article says he's been having knee problems since last year's Wimbledon - no wonder his Uncle Tony wants him to play less.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Anybody got any cool new blogs or websites to share?

I just found Coilhouse which has a goth/horror/fetish/style/cyberpunk slant. It's not an insular scene-oriented site, but covers a broad range of cultural artifacts like: Fritz Lang's Metropolis, the dilapidated Electric Park Pavilion in Oklahooma, encomiums to Don S. Davis and Cyd Charisse, reflecting on the best uses of Ian Curtis' stolen headstone, eulogizing the closed Nova Express Cafe in Los Angeles (how could this place not have been Miracleman's ultimate haunt? A cthulu/science fiction themed bar/cafe open late into the night), a review of Fashion in 2008 ("Good so far, still needs more lace"), Daily Drag Queen affirmations. And that's just the first page.

So what have you found online lately?

eta: A valentine to Jaye Davidson with some gorgeous, not entirely work appropriate photos.

A few weeks ago, I saw that the London Times now has its entire archive available for free online. Of course, I've got it bookmarked on my home computer, not here, so I can't provide the link right now.

Because you didn't start a post like this ages ago saying, "Hey check out this site Coilhouse."

I blame you. Still, you have to love that fashion review. I might have to start appending that line to all of my critiques: "This salad is good, but it needs more lace."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I had to add Coilhouse to my Bloglines feeds. That makes 67. Time to do some pruning. Or maybe organizing into folders.

A role model for LA? Chicago

Chicago has smarter corruption than L.A., Kaye said, because it's a strain of graft that gets things done rather than just lining pockets.

I did in LJ! When they first started up!

I'm tempted to use it in documentation reviews.
