Apparently, Lizzie Grubman has decided that the earth’s furnace is suffering from a bad rap, so she’s agreed to handle PR for the Sun.
Of course, as you know, face-to-face client meetings are essential in PR. She’s apparently had one too many of them with her new client.

Dear Mr. Vick:
It would have been very simple to write a brief mention of you, noting that I hope you get the book thrown at you, hoping you get abused and beaten in prison, tortured and eventually left to die just like the animals on whom you wagered… But what would that accomplish?

Remember the episode of the Simpsons where Homer wants to buy a gun but is told there’s a five-day waiting period? (His response: Five days? But I’m mad now!) Anyhow, that’s the same episode where he mutters an extended period of time…
Homer: (walking out of store to his car) Lousy big shot, thinks he’s so […]
From Bloomberg:
"Kid Counselors Wait By Phone In Case Harry Dies."
July 20 (Bloomberg) — A U.K. children’s charity has brought in extra staff to man its phone lines in expectation of a deluge of calls from distraught youngsters if Harry Potter dies.
“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” the seventh and final book in J.K. Rowling’s […]
Muhlenberg College’s oldest co-ed a cappella group, The Dynamics, singing Come On Eileen (a medley of two versions originally by Dexy’s Midnight Runners and Save Ferris) at their 2006 Winter Concert.
Just made me smile this morning.
