Fame is an effort to outwit death...and a deep desire for the love of strangers. 

"It's never too late to be what you might have been."

-- George Eliot

Sensationalist journalism is common enough nowadays, but rarely does it soar to the height of art form. In the April 23rd edition of the National Enquirer a masterpiece was hatched with opening sentence of this "Don Gentile" article on Whitney Houston:

"WHEN WHITNEY HOUSTON IS HIGH ON CRACK SHE WILL TRY ALMOST ANYTHING IN HER DEPRAVED BID FOR SEXUAL SATISFACTION."

The next sentence delivered a lurid follow up punch!

"FUELED BY DRUGS, SHE TAKES PART IN LESBIAN SEX, CHASES ANY MAN WHO COMES INTO HER HOUSE AND LOCKS HERSELF FOR HOURS ON END IN HER BATHROOM TO USE HER VAST COLLECTION OF SEX TOYS."

Genius!
