    Yes! Clear English. Understood most of it!

    I used to love Encyclopedia Brown books when I was little and I never solved those mysteries either.


    I'll guess though - the critic basically figures that any hip-hop artist who's achieved some success isn't relevant any more?


    I enjoyed the image of Ja Rule as pint-sized with the voice of Cookie Monster though. Now I'll always hear Cookie Monster if I have to hear his voice ever again.


    By the way, I figured that Jay-Z was already into his 40s. Whoops. I'm off to consult Wikipedia Brown to find out how old he actually is. See, this is what happens when you marry a woman who's way younger than you - she makes you look old, dude.

    @son of spam: She was in love with a midget. But Hollywood wouldn't let them have sex, so they just decided to stay home and smoke herb and watch porn on the Internet.


    I think I have to go back and read the post more carefully.

    @nightlawyer: Dare I say, Harry is the more beautiful of the two in this particular picture? Dorothy seems distracted, not into it. Who knows what their dynamic was that day. He seems beautifully and sensually into it, she seems.. elsewhere. Not particularly happy.

    @Baroness: But, late idea, maybe that's the idea of "Carmen Jones"- in character, even as a handsome soldier is kissing her, she's already looking elsewhere like a femme fatale does.

    awww, we lost my personal outro to tech difficulties...


    But yes, thanks for the warm reception and tuning into WTAN. We should have an interview with your favorite Late Show band The Roots next week, amongst other surprises. So stay tuned ... same TAN time, same TAN channel.

    @T.A.N.: oh, also backstory on this graphic:


    this was from the last series I was supposed to run on Gawker, "Inside the Commenter's Studio". It fell through the fault lines of staff turmoil etc, but it was a labor of love from myself and Richard Blakeley, who shot the video and designed the graphic, with the noble agenda of digging deep into the dark souls of all you lovely gold-starred free-content providers.


    The videos have been lost, but the spirit of a Gawker commenter never dies. Or something. Right?


    Well, see you next week!

    "Axe" for "ask" is a common colloquialism that isn't exclusively black or white but goes back to medieval England.

    @Mike Jahn: Axe for ask is a common colloquialism here... I'm slightly relieved to hear that it is elsewhere, too.
