On the rare occasions when our internet observer clicks on a celebrity link, the first thing he notices -- long before the few milliseconds to load the page are over -- is this: Regret.
The inevitable knowledge that he has just wasted some fresh neuron cycles on something abject, on reading about a person he will never know, never have any useful dealing with, never run into at a bar.
The dumb curiosity about the troubled young woman and about Bieber's monkey.
While the web page renders in all its cheerfully perverted glory, he feels just a little stupid.
Who knows, there may come a day when knowing that you don't pack a monkey for an international trip without paperwork becomes important.
The K-landnews team had to make a decision regarding treatment of the pope, and after an "open and frank exchange", the pope was put into the celebrity category.
The former altar boy (FAB) was nominated as an ad-hoc spokesperson to explain the decision to our fellow journalist readers.
FAB's performance was unremarkable, and while we did not like his description of the Catholic Church as "the longest running running reality show in human history", we declined to censor him and suggested a confession and three Hail Marys.
