After a week in which we didn't get noticed and only one person entered our interviewer search contest, we've come to the conclusion that you're meh about us. You're really meh about us. Or maybe giving up our psychopharmacolgicals in exchange for Tom Cruise's love wasn't the best thing to do on this fine Sunday.
That said, we're extending our great interviewer search another week. Interview your cool friends or co-workers and maybe win some shwag and a weekly non-paid gig from us. We don't know why you wouldn't jump on that action.
We hope tales told by one of our featured columnists wasn't what got us the Times sleight. Hey, what -isters do with their forearms on their own time is their business.
We consoled ourselves this week with:
- some bad sex.
- a birth and a death.
- The Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers of Music: The Go! Team.
- a Blackbird singing in the dead of night.
- Cookies.
- Korean pastries masquerading as French breads.
- the break-ups of others.
The Week in Full.
