Fun reads for Monday

I have nothing to say to you people. But other people do.

Here are my favorite reads throughout my work day.

Politics for people with dirty minds and cynical attitudes



My new favorite Web site: The Superficial, Because You're Ugly
An excerpt from a posting about the Olsen twins

Here are Mary-Kate & Ashley Olsen, wandering through the halls of the Overlook Hotel. They're supposedly modeling something. Perhaps anorexia. Definitely not breast implants. Remember that big countdown to their eighteenth birthday, when everyone thought they were going to be so gorgeous? And then the birthday came and the world collectively scratched their heads, because screwing them seems about as pleasant as screwing the vacuum cleaner. At least the vacuum doesn't complain when you use a marker to draw boobs on it.

Finally, for the journalism disciples Poynter's Romensko. Check out today's stuff about the Mohammed cartoons and Dana Milbank's hunting costume.
