Figgle a giggle? What would that sound like, Tom?

I’d like to see enlighten up. Spent a perfectly good hour last night researching yoga studios in Boulder, CO.

The Slumdog Millionaire movie sucks – just stick with the book.

He got me with a book called “Dry”. It’s about being a drunk in NYC. Maybe I just related too much….

Thanks, Kate; I feel validated. Finally. You don’t know how many people I’ve railed to about Burroughs’ hypedness (in same category as Jeanette Walls–and not because of the TMI, either) who have looked at me as if I simply possessed no appreciation for fine writing. Bah.

Although Tom has established that I have no soul and therefore lack credulity as far as reviewing of entertainment goes, I’m with you, Julie. When I read “Running With Scissors,” I was inspired because I thought, “if this guy can get published, surely I can, too.”

I’ll give “Slumdog Millionaire” a chance–still haven’t seen it (I know!), but I’ll leave Augusten Burroughs– I think he’s a mediocre writer who’s overhyped.
