A year ago, Jill and Pamela each approached me and asked if I wanted to write for their newest venture: The Silicon Valley Moms Blog. Today is the one year anniversary/birthday/blogaversary of Jill & Pam's Excellent Adventure, so please go over and wish them well. I have a post up there describing what it has meant to me to be part of that group. Maybe Sanjaya will come by the party and sing Happy Birthday to you, along with that dude from Justin.tv.
Thanks to Grace Davis, I am now totally hooked on the Twitter Web 2.0 crack. I'm by no-stretch of the imagination a real-time blogger or one who can economize on words, so it is somewhat freeing to write a sentence or two about what is going on right now. Plus, I like getting the messages on my phone when I'm at work. It's cheap entertainment, if nothing else.
Speaking of entertainment, the funniest news story I have read in a looong time was yesterday's story on Keith Richards snorting his dad. How does one ingest one's father? By grinding up his ashes and mixing with a little blow, evidently. I was simultaneously horrified and wracked with laughter at this news. Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately for Keith), his publicist is now saying that it was a hoax, according to the very reliable news source, MTV. If you ask me, that makes it even funnier. I don't think that Keith Richards will need to be cremated, since I'm convinced that one day he will just spontaneously combust. If it is a joke, maybe he got the idea from the episode of Nip/Tuck where Catherine Deneuve's character had the ashes of her dead lover put into her silicone breast implants just to piss off the wife. Or maybe he actually did it. Who the hell knows?
