Making The Big Time
Fausta was quoted by the
New York Sun today.
Go over and read all about it.
Way to go, girl!
UPDATE: Bill at INDC Journal, also mentioned in the article, damns Fausta with faint praise:
"And someone beat my commenter to the Paris Hilton analogy!"
C'mon, Bill. Get with the program and give credit where credit is due. Her name's right up there in the article. You can't hardly miss it. While I consider them to be above average, INDC Journal's commenters aren't the only people in the world who can come up with witty ripostes.
You can find the Bad Hair Blog right here.

Not sure I follow you. The context to my comment was that the Paris Hilton joke was bandied about on my site the previous day with a commenter demanding "trademark" for the idea.
So the idea that I have special love for my commenters is off, especially considering the fact that I typically enjoy abusing them mercilessly.
And you are right - the name
is "right up there in the article. You can't hardly miss it." Conveniently, the article, and hence her name, is published in full, right before my aside.
And indefinite pronoun use is common, particularly after the name has been mentioned, but when you don't actually know the person.
That being said, next time I promise I'll sprinkle rose petals at her feet and use a Ricki Lakism by way of congrats.

I love the rose petals idea, Rick!
(A pair of Manolo Blahniks would be so much more Paris-like though!)
For what it's worth, I was talking to the NYSun reporter at noon EST of Feb 3. Take a look at the commenter's entry.
