Thursday Update
Everyone welcome Jennifer Bednarek to Team TGO. Late Tuesday night, she accepted my offer to become my (first!) lead researcher. Jennifer is a graduate of Indiana University and a resident of New Orleans; she’s also two of the three brightest women I’ve ever known, so I’m delighted to have her on board.
Details: “lead researcher” will not be one of those empty titles people bestow on others to make them feel good about themselves (e.g., air waitresses became stewardesses; secretaries became administrative assistants, et cetera). Sometime soon – I keep pushing it back; I’m thinking late February or early March – I will get around to announcing the details of my next book. In April, when the formal research process for this mystery book begins, I will be doing my share, but Jennifer will be leading the charge. This will leave me time to research and write the twice-weekly opinion column (both longer processes than you would think).
Jennifer has yet to accept my financial terms – i.e., she won’t take my money – but I’ll talk her into it.
Update on The End of Civilization: Watch CNBC (and you should), you’ll see they have two crawls at the bottom of their screen. The top crawl is for stock prices, the bottom crawl is for news … it must mean something when CNBC reported that Brad Pitt has planted a bastard inside Angelina Jolie, but for the life of me, I can’t figure out what that thing is. Let me just say this: I won’t believe it until I see a DNA test. You won’t convince me that baby isn’t actually her brother’s …

An Egyptian cleric has said that if Arabs are naked during sex, the marriage is null and void. “According to the religious edict is issued by Rashad Hassan Khalil … ‘being completely naked during the act of coitus annuls the marriage.’ “

You Can Still Stun Gun Kids in Florida. Goddamn! If I had an assistant I’d say, Pack my bags! But since I don’t, I say, I’m hitting the showers.
