There's Plenty Of Liz Smith To Go Around
Perhaps the saddest example of not going gently into that good night comes from today's Liz Smith column in the Post. Smith, recently reduced to three days of meandering on about celebrities of the fifties by that paper, at least, ends today's ruminations with the following:
IF PERHAPS you miss your daily "fix" of Liz - on Monday, Wednesday, Friday - click on Internet entertainment search sites. Try iwon, MyWay or Excite, and you'll find me every day except Saturday.
Well, sure. We'd feel kind of desperate if they cut back on our schedule in advance of the inevitable termination too. [Ed. Note: I told you not to talk about this in public until we restructured your contract.] Still, the oddity of the suggested sites: Have the biz folk never heard of Google or Yahoo? Is this some kind of a plant? From 1998? Anyway, here's what a focused iWon search turns up. We'd be more than willing to read that kind of stuff six days a week! Lez it up, Liz!
