- Online shoppers got sweet revenge on online camera seller(s) ... in Brooklyn. It's almost common knowledge that plenty of online camera dealers are not what they claim to be. And we thought New York Attorney General Office would get involved, no, not likely as Mr. Spitzer spokesman, Brad Maione says, "It's just not something we have the resources to pursue." Right there, Mr. Spitzer won't get my vote if he's running for New York Governor. Mr. Spitzer's office is going after Wall Street, that I am aware of. Online camera dealers, no, not likely.
- "In a Filmmakers' Debut, The Day of the Virus Bombs." And I thought a movie by the name "The Day of the Virus" bombs at the box office. I really need to work on my English. Instead, I believe (don't believe a word I say) the article gives pretty good review on the soon to be released on Sundance film by first time director Chris Gorek. And the film is not called "The Day of the Virus," it's called "Right at Your Door."
- After the JT Leroy expose from yesterday, todays' Times follows with another article, the alleged fabrication of events passed as real life events by James Frey on his autobiograhy, "A Million Little Pieces."
Look like some people would do anything to get published on dead tree. Or one can just blog for the sheer pleasure of writing garbage.
Non-fiction means non-fiction. The publishers should've sold Frey's new book as a novel, which is a good one in its own right.
