    I'm blaming the media!

    Having to fill the 24/7 on-line-all-the-time constant newsstream they've been desperately casting about for anybody who can string a couple of sentences together and be some kind of a "correspondent". Local TV is so full of dipsy media school wanna-be's acting as "experts"...if you're on TV or have a blog, then you're an authority. Remind anybody of the movie "Network"?

    They'll believe you.

    Why?

    Because you're on TELEVISION, idiot!

    This has gotten so bad that my seventeen year old daughter has printed up business cards for herself that state that she's a "Lifestyle Correspondent". After seeing the ding-dongs that appear on TV and tell you what's "in", she figgered that her opinion was as good as anybody else's so why not?

    I'm guessing that this idiot is actually in the UK. If you click on the link in the US it takes you to the nearest syndicated paper that carries it, I assume by using your IP address, but he supports the same English soccer club that I do (I wish it was a different one).

    What he is doing isn't really a fashion column atall. Instead of featuring all the neat latest stuff, he devotes all his energy to being a fashion dictator. Style is not about looking a clone of other people, as he seems to think. Ignore him.
