The Mad Ones
I walked into the theater where Sam was sitting and it was empty. No one else wanted to see On The Road in the West Village. The seats were old and they made squeaks when you took them back.
After a minute two girls walked in. They had good hair. They had no idea what they were walking into. It was a second after they sat coats-off a row behind me and Sam when I talked loud so they could hear.

Guest Editorial
One of the more ridiculous types of news that seems to be prevalent in society these days is celebrity image. There was a time when movie stars and models were just movie stars and models. People saw beautiful people in movies and in magazines, and that was about it. Now, however, it seems we can’t go ten seconds without being presented with pictures of celebrities on tv screens, in magazines, on...

Web/Print integration clunkiness
spiers:
I read the New York Times in print and also subscribe to it on the web. I have professional reasons to do so and I’m not the typical subscriber on either basis.
So today, I get both versions, and the lead photo for the print version is a beautiful scarlet-saturated photo of bank notes destined for Libya. Here’s what it looks like: THIS HERE.
Because there’s no info in the print...

So, I’ve just stepped into the big, bad corporate world. It’s been about three months and guess what, I’m already craaaazy about my boss. It started out as a little crush, and now it’s this full blown romance-but-not-romance thing. Ahem! After one night of staying back a little too late, we ended up making out. A LOT. And, it was so good. I mean, the kind of mad kisses...

Lulz The Daily
fimoculous:
So wait, was I actually right about The Daily? Is it really not getting a homepage? The articles exist, but they’re not collected in any single place, it seems. (The robots.txt isn’t blocking searching engines yet though. You can see stories on Google.)
Since I never executed on this idea, I’ll give it to someone else: Go buy a similar domain, like TheDailyLinks.com or whatever, and...

There is thy gold, worse poison to men’s souls, Doing more murders in this loathsome world, Than these poor compounds that thou mayst not sell. I sell thee poison; thou hast sold me none. Farewell: buy food, and get thyself in flesh. Come, cordial and not poison, go with me To Juliet’s grave; for there must I use thee.
