postpostpartum roundup

I know, the Last Birthday Party was already 8 days ago, but the visual tributes are still pouring in. And so I am getting around to a reprise of the event. (Who wants to go outside today anyway?)
  And speaking of 98 Riverside, here is the obit of our famous literary forger in the Times.
  Today, Little Amy Silva, our own Fall Rivers, Ma., funeral director is having her first call-in show "The Silva Lining" on the end of life. You can call her TODAY between 2 and 3:00 pm at  (508) 673-1480 or listen to her streaming live on WSAR. Donna Ferrato and I, famously, did documentary "Five Feet Over" for Oxygen about Amy's decision to follow in her forebears' footsteps to become a funeral director rather than pursuing a career as a comic actress.
  Photographer Lynn Johnson's website (with a writing assist from you know who) goes live today just in time for several weeks of honors and speechifying at National Geographic in DC and FotoFusion in Palm Beach.
  This horrifying story in the West Plains Daily Quill about a pseudo terrorist attack in the town of Dora, Mo., population approximately 3.  Just shoot me. No! I don't mean it! Jeez, doesn't anyone have any sense of humor any more???
  And #jesuischarlie  (which we all absolutely are), got the following message from a friend in Brazil: "Today so set about shouting at Paris .i m whact TV and cry .so bad .all smart guy." Yes. So sad.
