Private Eye Gets Sued More Than I Do

Well, that was bracing: the first of what I'm sure will be many week-long absences.

Unfortunately, I have pledged to make this blog as anonymous, and also tedious, as possible. Any of the events of the past week that I actually want to post things about would do grievous damage to one or both of these goals. So I'll content myself with an inspirational letter concerning libel.

You know things have gotten pretty bad when you're looking to Richard Ingrams for inspirationalisms.

For catharsis, though, there is the new blog Emerald Bile. In their central contention - that people who post on blogs are for the most part cunts - they're basically spot on.
