KM, I hope you aren't up because Peanut or Cashew are sick. Everyone in the cold (until yesterday) mid-Atlantic states has been sick for months, but you Californians should be immune from all the winter crud.
I've got a suggestion for the Rumpus blog. How about appointing a Rumpus writer each week to give the vast reading audience a celeb update of the week? You know, the latest on the celeb: in rehab, who offended a protected group, had a wardrobe malfunction, got busted for DUI, etc. That way we can stay up on the "news" without having to plow through a lot of gossip columns and supermarket rags.
Hi CIV,
Thankfully, Cashew and Peanut are fine, but I appreciate your trying to ascribe a selfless motive to my wakefulness.
The real reason I was up so late was that I was watching the movie Quiz Show on, um . . . television.
I like your celebrity update idea, CIV. Wonderdog, Stewdog, Temp, or Darryl Ann would be naturals for the job, because they're all funnier than I am. But then the person who took the job would actually have to pay a modicum of attention to celebrity "news," which might discourage potential Rumpus Celebrity Watch bloggers. On the other hand, I can't even get e-mail without having to endure *some* headline about She Whose Corpse Must Not Be Named or Stupid Racist Spoiled Wh*** or Twitney, so I might as well make use of it, right?
