    For her sake, I hope it does better than my 8-track, book-on-tape ode to the telex.

    She needs to do something that will let Renee Zellweger portray her in a cutesy movie with a subtle message that tanks after one terribly disappointing week in the theaters.

    And if you pick up a copy expecting "The Best of Fleshbot," the publisher is truly sorry.

    I do not know which to prefer,
    The beauty of inflections
    Or the beauty of innuendoes,
    The blackbird pecking at
    Ginny Heffernan's one good eye,
    Or the sound thereof.

    "a poetics, a scale, a palette, a rhythm, a sensibility, a set of rituals and spectacles, a system of metaphors and an emotional range."

    I've never heard Porn described in such flowery terms.

    @raincoaster: I should explain: that video is real porn, pixillated beyond recognition, and hooked up to some sound synth program that responds to changes in light. It's dead cool.
