Wellington Leg: To the consternation of the nation this blog, this realm, this ethereal wisp was launched into outer space late last week and is currently orbiting the planet Jupiter. While that’s okay for the short term many worry about the future of this thing of ours. Will deep space influence the content? Will a parallax view of literature emerge? At the risk of degrading popular culture toward a tipping point I fear the answer is yes. The content of this blog will be worse than ever due to the effects of zero gravity’s rainbow and a foggy film on the windshield.
Chronicles of 43: From its humble roots as the diary of the 43rd earl this blog has evolved over time to offer the history of Wellington Leg, a towne populated by exiled writers, wannabees, shouldabeens, and hasbeens. Ruled with an iron fist by the Dowager Princess this tiny feudal state is ground zero for the credit crisis thanks to Ms. Fran Wycomb of Clutchingstraws Close. Fran borrowed one thousand dollars for beauty supplies in 2007; her loan, sliced and diced into tranches, brought down the financial system. This enabled a ten year old local student to build her show and tell project My Hedge Fund into the fourth largest financial institution in the world.
Our Pledge to You: Despite the vagaries of space travel the entire staff of One More Bite of the Apple pledges to expose corruption whenever we see it; to be relentless in our search for the eye of Newt that has eluded the mainstream media. But first we must get the defroster working or we won’t be able to see anything. We’re flying blind.
