Amazon discontinued the ability to create images using their SiteStripe feature and in their infinite wisdom broke all previously created images on 12/31/23. Many blogs used this feature, including this one. Expect my archives to be a hot mess of broken book cover images until I can slowly comb through 20 years of archives to make corrections.

I'm Pretty Sure I've Read This Book

Even with it's tendency towards rambling asides that poorly mask the minuscule story arcs, I still like me some Family Guy. This clip is from last Sunday's episode and I literally laughed so hard I snorted. My first thought after I recovered was that every romance reader has read more than a few bad novels with this sort of plot. Enjoy the clip while you can, cuz I'm not sure how long it will be up on YouTube before someone cries copyright infringement!



Added 5/7/08: Well that didn't take long. The clip is gone and I can't find another one on YouTube. Bugger. Copyright, Smopyright. Don't these people "get" the power of viral marketing? Ah well, if you go the Family Guy web site, you can watch the full episode, Long John Peter. That's assuming of course that you want to watch a full episode to see the 30 second clip I originally posted about "The Busy Business Woman."
