I do not have a second bedroom. I have a shrine to Jerry Orbach.

"Cook" is that a euphemism for, um, "working". I won't even ask about "second bedroom".

yeah- what is choire paying doug anyway? i mean, is he offering a salary and benefits, or just a place to hide out from the press? b/c jen has a second bedroom, and i've heard she's a better cook than choire.

Yeah, I hear you guys, but this is too juicy and fun not to report on. I mean, if Gothamist had Douglas Faneuil deleting our spam or running to the bodega for our 40's, we'd say something about it.

I'm afraid (very, very afraid) that I agree with Jack on this. Choire is under an obligation to be entertaining, not to spill every single thing he knows about every single thing.

I knew it! Conflict of interest. I still love Choire though.

Also, no mention of Pete Rojas leaving Gizmodo, which, if Gizmodo weren't owned/operated by Gawker Media, would have at least warranted a mention. But we shouldn't make the mistake of thinking of Gawker as a journalistic endeavor or of weblogs as any less biased than anything else.

i don't read rush & molloy enough to know, but is "working" a euphamism for something on their page? like "doug faneuil must be working hard for choire sicha- we saw him leaving choire's east village manse at 4am last night!"
