Sadly another month without regular internet at home. No matter. I’ve been on a book-buying binge ever since I found a Salvation Army and a used book store within walking distance of my flat; this is dangerous for a bibliophile like me. I knew I hit rock-bottom when I bought an obscure Umberto Ecco novel from a dodgy man in Union Square. Who knows what I could have caught!

So, Michael Phelps is in hot water for allegedly smoking pot in North Carolina and now some of his friends have been arrested because of the infamous photo. What’s worse is that he’s even lost sponsorships because of this “despicable” behavior. What truly saddens me is that he didn’t lose any sponsorships when he was busted for DUI at age 19. So very telling about our government and society’s current attitudes on drugs.
Now if only Michael Phelps had the cojones to stand up and say “I smoke. So what?” As annoying as Bill Maher is, he spoke the truth last night on Larry King. Take a look.
