reading is sexy


















Shelfari.com is a website where you can read about what other people are reading. Something nice about the site is that it actually smells like a book.  Maybe try it out.

Britney, 90210


















This is my friend Ashley in front of Britney Spears' Hollywood Hills home, which, as you can see, is protected by a network of sharpened rods. These rods are meant to keep Britney in, much like the spiked rods at the San Francisco Zoo were meant to keep that tiger that chewed a kid's face off in. Unfortunately everyone's favorite Pop Tart occasionally escapes in her Mercedes, its trunk full of progeny and secured with bungee cords. Oh, wait---I think they took her kids away from her, which means, when she's not out flashing her bidness to the paps, or stealing lighters from the local gas station, Brit Brit is all alone in this giant adobe crate, pitching back and forth on a tiny rocking horse with her head in her hands, chanting "Oops, I did it again," or, more likely, "Oopsie." I hope they at least give the girl some chew toys, maybe even something made out of her old hair.

Speaking of hair, if you look closely in the above picture, you can see a somber Britney sitting near a window, her delicate nicotine-stained hands stroking her golden wig tresses, which drape over a single shoulder. She's singing a sad song about a bluebird she sees crushed on her driveway, its viscera glistening, splayed across a delicate pattern of tire tread.
