Thumbs up Tuktuk's new job: LA Times Entertainment Blogger!!!


I am going to shamelessly promote tuktuk's (aka Christie) new job: She is the online editor and blogger for the Los Angeles Times website called "Ministry Of Gossip." This is big folks. She is competing with other entertainment websites for page views, so if this is your thing, please click away (even if it's not your thing...click away...page views are everything!).

She also does a really great job writing and editing, so I think you'll all enjoy it.

Oh and by the way...she'll tell you that I am one of the few people who do NOT follow celebrity gossip at all. However, I click constantly because the idea of me living in some hostel and having cat food for dinner in my old age is really unappealing (notice I said cat food...not puzzy.)

Here's the link...and thank you kindly!

Good for her, she deserves it, and this seems like her niche too.

not sure what a celebrity is, but I'll toss in some clicks!

Ah - those celebrities.

Nice layout, easy to read.

Good luck with the new job, Tuktuk!

50 or so clicks here, and I don't really give a flip about celebs.

I did have to ask my wife who the majority of those people were. But I recognized the military guy from the Transformers movie, I just didn't know he had married the Duchess of York.

I'll click in when I get home, although I admit I am somewhat conflicted by the thought I might be perpetuating the notion that I care about celebrities by doing so, but since it is going to help Christie and your retirement I will do it.
