This weekend I had the distinct pleasure of attending the first annual Blanche Devereaux Appreciation Night. Not exactly a Buena Vista Home Entertainment sanctioned event, but more like an amazing alternative to the usual bachelorette party tedium of penis straws and matching hot pink bridal party t-shirts. Who knew hanging out with a bunch of gals wearing satin pj's and eating midnight cheesecake could be so awesomely fun and debaucherous? *Said debauchery will not be outlined in detail to protect our *ahem* "reputations".
I wanted to do a Monday blog round-up, but hadn't quite come down off of my Golden Girls "Lanai High". The links below are bursting with fruit flavour:
- The Juggalos are coming! The Juggalos are coming! (and we're still in the tub!). Never heard of the Juggalos? Allow me to enlighten you: Remember that god-awful band The Insane Clown Posse?

Really I just wanted to post this because the first pic is of Uncle Rico from Napoleon Dynamite. Jezebel
- Courtney Love has a fashion blog. Yeah, I know. So far it looks like it consists mainly of photos of her from various fashion shoots and a couple of super-creepy grainy self portraits of her standing in front of a mirror in her gitch.

- Remember that urban legend about Bill Murray running up to a dude on the street, hugging the guy and then whispering in his ear "No one will ever believe you"? No? Well I do because it's one of the items on my Bucket List: "Get a hug from each Ghostbuster". GQ interviewed Bill Murray in this month's issue and this is what he had to say about it: Gawker
