I'm here all week

The big headlines on the top of Yahoo!’s news page today: Hello Kitty marketing being retargeted at young males! Japanese people are crazy for pen spinning! Hilary or Oprah: which woman do Americans respect most?

Glad to see that the internet is on top of the hard-hitting news, when there’s a country with nuclear weapons that’s seeing its democracy threatened by crazed religious fundamentalists. I hear there was an assassination in Pakistan, too.

Thank you, thank you! That is the kind of biting political satire you only get from a professional comedy writer. Who’s suffering crippling writer’s block at the moment.

    Surely, you could have thought of something funnier to say. I guess writing comedy for a blog is a totally different thing altogether. Perhaps you should go listen to some Mister Mister…

  2. That’s what SHE said!

    No, wait.

    That’s MISTER Mr. Mister to you!

    I saw the same story on Yahoo and I thought they might be giving me targeted news. You may also fit one of their profiles. ;)
