Some may call it wasting time.  I call it, well, not working.   To help you meet your daily quota:

** Season 5 of Lost on ABC kicked off Wednesday, and my wife Jill’s Lost Blog 2009 is now online @ my page of US99.com.  You’ll also find the previous seasons’ blogs – everything we Lost addicts need for our weekly fix.

** All Access Week 84 is now posted at US99.com … it highlights all the interviews from last weekend’s Winterfest in St. Charles.  My TMZ conversation with Kellie Pickler, plus Jason Aldean and Jimmy Wayne with L&R.  Perfect for that mid-afternoon non-smoke break.

What’s the best way you waste a few minutes every day?  Your favorite indulgence?

312.591.US99, text 287-995, or e-mail me.

Let’s talk about it, today after 3pm.

Can you tell how close and crowded her fans were, in front of our table?  Crazy!

I’m curious if you’ve ever had a TMZ / paparazzi experience, good or bad.

Let’s chat about it, today after 3pm.
