The new New York, weighing in at 168 pages, arrived this week with an almost Vanity Fair-like heft. We were planning to congratulate the mag on this achievement — actually, we were waiting for the inevitable press release touting the accomplishment — but then we actually gave the cover a look. And we're not sure we'll ever be able to quite get past the Platon-shooting-Clinton-for-Esquire shot of Woody Allen's crotch we'll have to spend the next two weeks looking at. (It's a double issue.) Yuck.

If you manage to make it past that cover photo, there's an amazing item in the "Intelligencer" section: Jessica Simpson is making it possible for listeners to insert their own names in place of "baby" when they download her new song from the Internet. As in, "Hey, Woody, I saw you looking over here, Woody." There's a list of 500 names to choose from, each sung specially by Jess for all the common-named stalkers -- I mean fans -- out there. But I wonder if they have "Bort"?
I wonder if they have "Pedophile"?
Double issue my ass, half of it is a "special advertising section."
Scarlett, look behind you!!!
They don't call him The Woodsman for nothing. This cover is sadder than Natasha Lyonne.
