"I'll wager her new marriage
should suffice as her present charade...
give it three years as well,
with a whimpered Dear John e-mail sent to
hubby when he confronts her with questions
about cheating ;-)"

now - everyone is writing about this
and i find as i type this post.
i'm already losing interest.
yet i too, enjoy a little old-fashioned vindictiveness.
and i'm sure as hell not above this sort of thing,
so i will also take a pass at this.

pokerface is referring to the Vancouver columnist/single
girl-about-town, Angèle Yanor.
seems Yanor's given up both titles rather abruptly.

many would argue that Yanor's contribution to the Sun could hardly be called journalism,
in fact, Yanor herself agrees.
after sloppily plagiarizing the NY Times,
and getting caught,
Yanor defended herself with the following post on angeleyanor.com

"For the record, I have never called myself a journalist.
I write chick lit. My articles have always had
an element of fiction. Most of my readers accepted this.
To make sweeping comparisons of
journalistic plagiarism seems a bit unfair."


the Sun claims they fired Yanor over the debacle,
but Angèle says she quit because of her recent marriage.
it would be dishonest for the blushing bride
to write a singles column.

Yanor rec'd a lot of attention in this town.
she got into all the right parties.
writers everywhere bristled at her name,
but still dropped it whenever they needed to.

her writing was dreck and stolen dreck at that.
let's all do our little victory dance and move on.
i love a happy ending too,
but let's not give old Lucky Strike too much of a send off.

anyone know what Suzy Wall's been up to lately?
