I remember having people over one night in 1983. I remember telling them I had to turn the TV on and watch Michael Jackson on the Motown 25th Anniversary Special. And I remember them looking at me like I was the funniest idiot in the world. But I had read about the taping in that week's Village Voice. The reporter said that Michael lip-synched Billie Jean and the crowd went absolutely nuts. I had

When I was on the West Coast, I subscribed to a daily email news update from Syracuse's WTVH-Channel 5, just in case something hugely important happened back home. After awhile I hardly ever looked at it, and when I returned last fall it never crossed my mind to cancel it.A couple of months ago WTVH fired 40 staffers, basically closed its news operation, and started running local newscasts

A comment from Sproing on io9 reminds us (and I forgot):Fun fact: [Voyager actress] Jeri Ryan dumped her husband to be with [Voyager producer Brannon] Braga, which led to the divorce filing that destroyed her husband's Illinois senate candidacy -- paving the way for Obama to become a senator, and then president. Thanks, Brannon Braga!

Van Johnson (The Minstrel) died today at 92, cutting the number of surviving Bat-villains to 10: Julie Newmar, Eartha Kitt, Lee Meriweather, Joan Collins, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Glynis Johns, Cliff Robertson, Barbara Rush, Malachi Throne and Eli Wallach. This is the first time the Very Slow Batman Curse (1966 model) has struck since the death of Shelley Winters (Ma Parker), nearly three years ago.

Questions for FEMA's future fake news conferences, by el duque's friend Seely. [Link] I'm a veteran reporter, and I hate positive stories. I'd much rather destroy people, especially with no facts to get in my way. So, my question is this: What minor tidbit should I gin up into a scandal?

He's about nineteen, and is just getting his first real worries.

It's called Pensive Mischief, and it's designed to serve as a guide to my work both as writer and editor...but there will be much commentary, news, and previews as well.I'm not abandoning the Beer and the Meat, though.
