Beyonce announced her pregnancy just over a week ago and already the hype about Babyonce is more than most of us receive in a lifetime … and its life hasn’t even begun.

Back in 2008, Courtney Love claimed that someone had stolen Kurt Cobain’s ashes. A possible explanation for the missing remains may be contained in the pages of Nick Strauss’ book, Everybody Loves You When You Are Dead. The music reporter wrote that Courtney contemplated snorting Kurt’s ashes like cocaine. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? She might have pulled a Keith Richards. He admitted to snorting his late father’s ashes in his autobiography. That can’t be right. [Dlisted, Celebrity Mound]

Ami AngelowiczAugust 29, 2011 //

Hurricanes can really suck. Before Irene stopped by, I was in a state of panic, braving long lines at the grocery store, desperately seeking flashlights, taping up my windows, and generally hunkering down for the worst case scenario. For Irene’s visit to New York City, many people had to evacuate their homes. Some lost power and experienced serious flooding, and I’m truly sorry for them.

But once Irene hit my ‘hood, I realized she wasn’t all that bad once you got to know her. It just so happened that I had fun with her. Is that wrong of me to say? After the jump, eight reasons why I loved Irene. Keep reading »

The 5 Things You Should Never Say To A Job Slut

The GrindstoneAugust 28, 2011 //

I’ve been a full-time freelancer for over a year. It’s been the most stimulating, character-building, nail-bitingly stressful experience of my professional life. And people love to talk about it.

I think it helps that I’m a writer.

The other 15% say something stupid, like “Do you make any money?” or “Seriously, how are you paying your rent?”

Ugh. Read more… Keep reading »
