So...

Evan chose Zora, eh?! (Note how I cleverly manage to link to seemingly unrelated stories which combine aspects of popular culture and timely news information into a synergistic and dynamic bit of confusing gobbledygook!)

On Joe Brain Stem, Zora at least manages to get some money out of the deal, which sounds like a lot until you realize how much moolah FOX made on this steaming pile, and the fact that she will have to give half of it to the gummint, and then will in all likelihood spend the rest of it on someone other than herself. And yes, I could never hear her name without thinking of Zora Arkus-Duntov, so the whole deal sorta gave me the creeps. I mean, who would want to date a dead Belgian engineer. Evan got an even bigger deal when a suitor named Google came knocking and bought him and his five buddies drinks and promised them a big night on the town. Glenn Reynolds mentioned yesterday he wondered if Blogger and Blog*Spot would now have the resources to fix the colony of roaches inhabiting the software. Silly man. They even go so far as to say 'no changes' in all their press about it. The same old crap, but with much higher capacity. ::sigh:: Oh well, at least it's free. As for the teevee dude, I predict his share of the $1M will quickly be spent on bling. One hopes he at least gets a hair cut.
