On 'Cannibal Apocalypse: 2012' and Other Musicals I Have Written
Any producers or benefactors reading the Awl: I am 100% serious, deathly serious, dying of seriousness.

On Understudies! "Carrie": The Worst Musical Ever
This makes "Xanadu" even more popular, relatively, and for that I am glad.

On Sunday Routine | Beeswax Richards: A Laid-Off Editor Who Likes Club Soda in Her Carlo Rossi
This is perfect. Reading The Poughkeepsie Journal in Saugerties sets the grimmest tone.

I happen to think it's fly when bugs stop by for the summer, for the summer

On Maybe We'll Be Remembered for the End of Jobs
But this leaves unemployed people with so much time to think of new websites, which will surely be lucrative and employ lots of freelancers! Everyone knows that the internet will give jobs to everybody with an artist's heart and a smartphone, and then we can form a union and everything will be fine, just fine!
Oh, boy. I'm going to go work on these ideas. I wonder why nobody thought of this before??

On Help Me, For I Have Pine Mouth!
This also happens with Lunesta! I wonder what the carnage would be like if you made a Lunpesto.

On A 'Sex And The City 2' Review By Two Actual Straight Men
So mad impactful.
I have to step in to point out that most women feel about Steve the way that most men feel about Carrie. Douchechills.

On "American Idol": Lee DeWyze Is Just Afraid
Something I find befuddling: why is working at a paint store considered to be the epitome of the blue-collar workaday lifestyle? Can't we assume that all prospective Idols, less the ones who have considerable followings before the start of the show, work kind of lousy jobs that they'd rather leave for the stage? It isn't as if he'd been processing manure. Actually, when Lee revisited his old workplace, I was like, DAMN. Cushy: he doesn't have to carry multiple beverages on a tray.
I second everything you said about Mr. Jackson. His charm has even started to off-set some of my irritation at Ellen's critiques. When they finally put down the old beast American Idol, I'll miss Randy, perhaps, most of all.
Natasha, I seriously hope you bring this kind of investigative reporting to the X Factor.

On Are "Cougars" Unsafe For Children, Or For The Whole Human Race In General?
I like that it opens up the field for even more specific cat-human terms for dating: pink panthers are looking for femmes, snow leopards are those only interested in nordic-looking folk, cheetahs are married and looking for something on the side, clouded leopards are 4/20 friendly...etc...

Excellent Springsteen placement.
