since april 4th, david sugarman has written 589 letters to salon, ranging from poorly-edited to incoherent to completely bonkers. 589 letters in 30(ish) days is nearly twenty letters a day. if we assume that he sleeps eight hours a day, that's more than a letter an hour from the time he rises to the time he goes to bed. this brings new meaning to the word CRANK.
i can't tell if he's being sarcastic or not when he accuses another letter-writer of falsifying blackness because his syntax "doesn't have that 'knock' to it!" but either way this is not a person to be taken seriously.
and no, mr sugarman, i am not the real peggy lipton.
will heather be writing ms. paglia's column this week?
fyi to scavok: i'm not a huge tennis fan, and his request for blurbs is certainly unorthodox. however, his method will probably yield blurbs MORE honest than those procured the normal way. at least his readers are actually genuine fans.
here's the thing: those blurbs you see on book covers are hardly ever written out of actual admiration for the book itself. it's almost always a matter of personal friendship, politeness, or to repay a favor to someone. duh!
how can salon name ira glass as sexiest man when salon was the first to reveal to us what a dick he is, in Lynda Barry's "My Worst Boyfriend"? (clearly about mr. glass.)
also everyone knows owen wilson is not tortured, just a junkie. junkiies are not sexy!
john hamm IS sexy though.
