A note to our readers. No news review this week. We attempted it and had the problems of people falling off the call repeatedly. The fourth time, we just scrapped it for this week. The feature is popular and it's not being cancelled, we just weren't in the mood for the hassle this Sunday.

We have some things we think you'll enjoy. Benji e-mailed with a question and in preperation of a feature on e-mails next edition, we thought we'd seriously answer Benji's question. We also have an essay on Guantanamo Bay, a "Five Books, Five Minutes," an editorial and a humorous look at the wacky web. All of those features were written by the following:

The Third Estate Sunday Review's Dona, Jess, Ty, Ava and Jim,
Rebecca of Sex and Politics and Screeds and Attitude,
Betty Thomas Friedman Is a Great Man,
C.I. of The Common Ills and The Third Estate Sunday Review,
Kat of Kat's Korner (of The Common Ills),
Cedric of Cedric's Big Mix,
Mike of Mikey Likes It!,
Elaine of Like Maria Said Paz
and Wally of The Daily Jot.

Keep your panties and briefs dry, we also have the latest TV review from Ava and C.I. On that, Ava and C.I. want to say a special hello/shout out to Randy and Angie who are too of their biggest fans. They both wrote at least twice in the last week to let Ava and C.I. know the impression their TV reviews left. We think Randy's got a crush on Ava and C.I. because he's twice written asking where they live. Ava and C.I. really don't have the time to read the e-mails to this site so we pass on your enthusiastic responses. Angie was so thrilled to get a reply (we fear she may be a shut in) that she had to immediately write back to note her gratitude. Angie, we'd try to fix you up with Randy if it weren't the fact that he has an unhealthy focus on Wentworth Miller which makes us fear that you may not be able to offer what he's looking for.

Hopefully, you found something in here that you were looking for, something in this edition to make you laugh or piss you off.

-- Jim, Dona, Jess, Ty, Ava and C.I.
