We're pathologically social. We're professional leisurists. We're burrito lovers, bar flies, art whores and music nerds. We dish the good dirt, and we'll risk a parking ticket for a cheap sample sale. Sometimes, we blog drunk.

Amy Winehouse deathwatch goes live

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Yes, Amy Winehouse is a hopeless addict of the Pete Dougherty variety. It's sad but true. Her stunning voice and open-book songwriting skills (which scored her six Grammy nominations this year, including Best New Artist) have been all but overshadowed by her increasingly cracky public behavior (like wandering the streets of London with cocaine smeared across her face in bare feet and bra). But she cleans up well, pardon the pun:

 

Still, it's tough to find the humor in the new website "When Will Amy Winehouse Die?", which allows browsers to enter a predicted date and time when Ms. Winehouse finally shuffles from this mortal coil. The "winner" receives a free iPod. Hmmm. It sounds like the beginning of a really messed-up horror movie, where the ghost of Amy Winehouse terrorizes the winner until they too are hopeless crack addicts working the corner of Santa Monica and Highland to finance their habit. Or not...
