“Pool reporter” Amy Jacobson
Amy Jacobson is a not bad looking newscaster with Chicago’s WMAQ-Channel 5. However at some point she decided that frolicking with Craig Stebic, who’d she met while covering the mysterious disappearance of his estranged wife, was worth risking her job for.

In today’s Business section, the Los Angeles Times had a technology article wondering if the Nintendo Wii could “prolong it’s winning streak” and whether it was “little more than a fad.” It’s okay, even admirable, for a newspaper to be skeptical even in the face of a runaway hit like the Wii that has sold […]

April DuBoise was one of the friendlier servers at the westside Hamburger Hamlet that I patronize every week. It was fun to talk to her and she was good at her job. I hope she doesn’t get the crap beaten […]
Good god!
Flier found in abundance posted around West Los Angeles near the Independent Sources corporate offices.
Not sure which of the following this flier is an indictment on:
1. Los Angeles and how shallow we are (i.e., people will say/do anything to be on TV)
2. MTV and how shallow and uncreative they are (40 Year-Old Virgin rip-off?)
3. […]
