Lit fun in the online world

Gotta love the snarkety snark of this post about the memoirs of Laura Albert (the creator of JT Leroy). But is there anything amusing to say about the three guys who invented LonelyGirl15?

There is funny out there: Ed gives us a taste of Nora Ephron's wit. Could an Ephron/Segundo encounter be on the way?

John Hodgman has been everywhere with the release of Areas of My Expertise in paperback, and I hope you have time to listen to the podcasts of his Little Gray Books Series, now on hiatus, which are ingeniously funny and include music! and a live Galapagos audience!

Maybe this is all over TV (which I gave up for grad school), but watching Audrey Hepburn dance to AC/DC (Via La Gringa) is awfully cute, despite helping to sell stretch pants for the Gap.

And in good-things-come-to-those-who-persevere news, if you get an MFA and wind up proofreading a crappy tax magazine, don't worry, you can still grow up to be Edward P Jones.

Goddam the Gap. I LOVE "Funny Face." I mean, love LOVE love it. One of the greatest musicals of all time. And these fuckers have to diminish it to sell clothes. Bah...
