LADLES AND GENTLESPOONS:

This report is comin' atcha LIVE from SOUTHAMPTON'S ROGER'S MEMORIAL LIBRARY. There are lots of dudes and dudettes strutting around in their expensive clothes taking out books for free. Oh boy, is this a nice library, offering Wi-Fi at no cost to patrons, both official (like the man sitting next to me in brown loafers and plaid shorts), and unofficial (like me - oh I fully intend to mooch).

The town I'm currently residing in - Water Mill - (according to Wikipedia) is ranked 6th as the nation's most expensive zip code. Do you sometimes wonder if these people somehow get rich by taking out books for free at the library rather than Barnes&Nobling it for moneys and keepers? In any case, this library is most definitely not funded much through late fees.

I have no great word to add to my list today, and my sister is bugging me to scoot. Off to Panera for more free 'net!

Ta!

IS IT OKAY TO JOKE ABOUT A DEAD MAN?

Ever say something you think is funny only to find out that someone else already said it? God. This happens to me all the time. So Heath Ledger, having kicked the bucket and all, might be appropriately referred to as Heath Deadger. I chuckled a bit when I thought of it one day while driving around in my convertibeetle (another word I thought I created), and felt the need to google the dead celeb's amended moniker. What! It rhymes! Of course, to my dismay, somebody else had already thought of it.

FUM!
