    Now I feel a little cheap and mean for saying this but WTF.... I'm from SC and even I look at that English cracker and say damn, he's a creepy squirrel chip eating nut job. And as a gay I would also toss in veneers, a chin implant and one hell of a face cream!!

    @ChuffedLittleMuffin: This video is not an incisive, oblique commentary on this past week, but rather a testament to my belief that Bowie should be posted on Gawker on Friday nights.

    @i'm_a_bottle: I will stay on Gawker every Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday for Richard, Ryan and Hamilton, who are awesome.


    But I will leave Gawker every Wednesday for Owen, who is a little too tiresome and mean.


    I will spend only one half-day each here on Saturdays for Pareene, who I'm not sure about at this point .. the Jury's out. He's funny, but I don't always agree with this politics.


    Sundays I can't make it cuz I'm hungover in the morning, have Yoga in the afternoon and then spend evenings having dinner with my sister and her family.

    I'm in CST so it seemed I was typically a cocktail or two behind in the FNFF. But I miss them and wonder what new elements of Gawker culture will replace them.

    For all the ruckus people were raising about how tasteless and tacky the Travolta coverage was, and that they were never coming back to this site again, they keep coming back. Good week all in all.

    It's hard to see how such threats can be viewed as dire ones from Gawker's perspective. I doubt that Nick Denton or Gabriel Snyder ever storms through the Gawker office shouting: "Do something, quick — that commenter's about to leave us for good!"
