Emmett: Yeah, I just feel really confused right now. Michael: Thanks for that. Again, I'm so sorry. Ashley: Thanks very much.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost a dear friend of 35 around this time last year. It's a terrible thing to lose someone so young and so senselessly. I can only try to imagine what all of you, who were truly close to her, must be going through. Be kind to yourselves. It's a boring cliche to say that it takes a lot of time--but that's why it's a boring cliche. God bless.

Hey everyone, It's three in the morning and I just cannot sleep. Last night Star and I were together laying in bed. I was forcing her to watch the director's cut of Miami Vice and we were snacking on cookies. And tonight she's gone. And I don't know what to do without her. So I'm just going to write for a minute, like I've been doing all over the damned internets. She'd like that. Star loved all of you. She adored writing and was commited to bringing all of you guys the fun, pithy posts that you all had grown to love. I got to accompany her on interviews and shows and such and she lit up a little bit every time she got to do soemthing relating to Phillyist, or just some writing in general. I don't really know what to say from here. I want to say more but I'm getting blubbery. So let her writing talk. Go to her websites. Check out sarcasmoscorner.com, or read some of her backlog here at Phillyist. Get to know her. I love you, Star. -michael

Hey, folks. I wrote a piece here. I don't really know what else to do at this point, and I'm a bit shell-shocked.
