WTW crisis fading… I’m liking this plainess… I’ve been trying to figure what instigated the ‘crisis’ and I think it has to do with all my favorite ‘gawkermedia’ sites getting a face-lift… keeping up with the JONESes as they say, eh? EH???? YEAH!!

I have a favorite Simpsons quote that’s been running through my head lately:

Luigi (to Krusty): “You come-a with me, come-a with Luigi. You don’t want to sit with the rest of these scum.”
[People in restaurant grumble]
Luigi: “I only consider you scum compared to krusty.”
[People in restaurant approve]
Luigi: “Yeah, you see how you scum.”

Yeah, you see you how you scum.

Love it.

After gathering all empirical evidence from last weeks vacation I’ve established my brother-in-law Ed has THE best Mayor Quimby impression… only someone from N. England can truly master the greatness of the Massachusetts area accent.

I’ve spoke little of my vacation, here are some juicy factoids about it:

We walked around Edgartown and Menemsha — both very quaint little seaside towns AND were used as the backdrop for “Amity” in 1975’s “Jaws”. Last year they had a 30 year - JawsFest, commemorating the DVD release. They released a 1,000 great white sharks in the surrounding waters and let them have there way at the beach goers.

We had three different pies in the 5 days we were there: Blueberry, Fruit Harvest and Strawberry Rhubarb.
Blueberry won.

People still call it Gay Head, even though it was renamed to it’s original “Indian” name Aquinnah.

From Mike W. — poor, poor, Hoff.

From Mike A. — that is so NOT cool.

Dave Chapelle is coming to the Warner Theatre on August 24 — tickets go on sale TODAY at 10AM. I have no doubt they’ll sell out in about 15 seconds, so I urge all of you to buy me a pair of tickets and I’ll pay you back. Fuh real.
