I've been quitely following the news of Whitney Houston's divorce and latest attempt at recovery. Now this latest news of George Michael found passed out in his car and in possession of drugs has me wondering, given his previous antics, whether he's not on his way to becoming a Whitney-esque story of a great talent gone awry.

    • You discover all sorts of things, when you check out your incoming links. Like the fact that Matthew Yglesias is apparently all moved in to his new home at Think Progress, and has added me to his blogroll. I've returned the favor, which reminds me that it's probably time I updated the blogroll again...

    • I probably shouldn't say this, but I work on K Street. I've even bumped into Robert Novak once, when we were both pedestrians, crossing the street in opposite directions. Now, I'll have remember to keep an eye out, and look both ways before I cross the street, lest Robert Novak run into me.

    • I don't really care about the Madonna/Alex Rodriguez affair story, because I'm not married to either of them.

    • Gimmick or no gimmick, I would so dance with Lance. Hey, I took ballroom dancing in college, and was pretty good at it. Later, I learned to two-step in a gay C&W bar, and was pretty popular because I was a good follower. Not like dragging around a sack of potatoes. So, Lance, you can lead if you want to...

    • I knew there was a reason I'm not buying an iPhone today. (Besides the fact that I don't "need" one, and the reality that I don't need to spend that much on a tech purchase. It looks like Apple's having a pretty bad day, along with people who did buy iPhones that currently don't work due to server problems.
