After many iterations and a few years of near silence, the Davenetics* Newsletter is about to make its deeply awaited and much heralded return. This time, it’s not just me providing the content. I will be getting an assist from the top headlines from more that 30 news and entertainment sources all delivered to your email once daily.

Long timers will recognize some Davenetics, a bit of NextDraft and a hint of new, new stuff. It’s old school with a post modern twist. Ah, the hell with it, Just sign up and please pass the word...

If you can watch this up to and through the comments about the attire being worn by members of the White House press crew without puking, you are amazing.

Two questions and a statement about PR companies and bloggers.

1. Why do PR companies think they have the right to bulk mail bloggers unsolicited messages that contain no unsubscribe links?

2. Has any blogger ever written anything even slightly related to the contents of an unsolicited message that came from a PR firm?

3. People are essentially paying PR firms to damage their reputations. Seems bad.

One minute we were having a great time joking around about the Foley scandal (the guy, afterall, did the impossible by actually lowering our opinion of Congress ) and then along comes Kim Jong-il with his nuclear test.

I say we fire back by asking Brad and Angelina to have another kid. This nuke stuff is a total bore.

I don’t know, you?

No I don’t know either.

I’ll let the kids over at Wonkette handle this one…
