    Will Dallas Morning New reporters now be told not to advertorialize in their stories?

    I don't normally like blogs like this, but Maira Kalman's blog is something that I'm adding to my list.

    I think one a month is enough. There is a lot there to digest.

    No joke: The F1 blog is my favorite NYT blog. It would be a shame if they pulled the plug.

    Pogue's videos are awesome, one of the best uses of video on a newspaper website.

    That said his "I am not a journalist" thing is total bullshit.

    If you ever want your heart to break, head over to the Times' migraine blog. It is called Migraine: Perspectives on a Headache. The comments section is consistently devastating.

    Also, remember when the Gawker tag "The New York Times is just a fancy blog" was like, a futuristic neg?

    I'm not old either, but the typos drive me fucking nuts. Nuts!

    - Calendar. Not calender.
    - Strunk and White wrote "The Elements of Style," not "Element of Styles."
    - Hillary Clinton is not a dude. Her first name has two Ls, not one.

    I'm not old, but I want that cane. Who'd fuck with you when you were carrying that thing?

    Also, the CBC would probably buy the blog about hockey.

    My BFF and his boyfriend of 6 years agreed to split up. It was fairly amicable. They toughed it out while the boyfriend looked for a new apartment, taking turns sleeping on the sofa.

    I was surprised they lasted that long. The sexin' was infrequent and lousy, the boyfriend was the slob half of the Odd Couple, and they wanted different things out of life. Plus, the boyfriend cheated (and ultimately got what he deserved, as you will see.) But it seemed to work ok for a month or two.

    Until! The boyfriend returned home early one night and was surprised to find candles, a used ashtray and two empty wineglasses in the sink.

    My buddy (whom I still call "Helium Heels") was abed with a rather goodlooking Craigslist hookup, sexin' away with Hard Mechanics 2 on DVD a-playin'. Fortunately he was able to 'fess up, get the boyfriend to take a walk, and kick the craggy Craiggy to the curb without them actually seeing eachother.

    He remains defiant. And I got him a gift certificate to The Red Roof Inn for Christmas.

    Don't we have some old semi-pro Penthouse Forum writers around here somewhere? This sounds like the perfect gig for them.
