Greetings, fellow Time Magazine People of the Year! While the rest of this year's honorees are out tobogganing on picturesque hillsides or sliding their toes between the white sands of an all-inclusive resort, we keepers of the cyber community flame hold steadfast at our posts, lest a single Paris Hilton assflap photograph or trailer mash-up risk slipping through the cracks. Mark is away on vacation, but I shall see you through the next few days—a time of year I have previously referred to as the "taint between Christmas and New Year's," but which I will now amend to include certain neighboring orifices, if you, like me, will spend the majority of it sitting at a computer. Of course, in these dead news days, your individual sightings and tip contributions are required more than ever, and will go directly to help feed and clothe a content-needy associate editor. God bless.
