Mmmmm, I’m really diggin your lips
but be careful where you walkin when you’re swing them hips.
I’m kinda concerned you’ll be causin a crash
with your traffic jam booty, heads pausin so fast

-Ludacris, “Pimping All Over The World”

Victories

Ciuin’s author friend has suggested she become a professional author harasser. They are considering an SBA loan which will be reinvested to make Ciuin 10% more distressing.

Kelly actually wrote the piece we’re going to review this week. I am considering having Ciuin give her a stern look.

News

From Nina D’Angelo, A Writer’s Perspective on Writers.

Geoffrey Pullum, head of Linguistics and English at the University of Edinburgh, writes about why The Elements of Style is dumb. Okay, this isn’t really news, because it was written in August of 2009. However, it’s a good read, and well worth your time.
