In a rare break from form, local WLOS-loathing blogger Ashvegas has posted a tidy essay lamenting the loss of the simple act of sweeping. Sure, it’s hardly breaking news, but when’s the last time you read a blog about a broom?
Here’s a sample:
“Once upon a time, people took pride in their sweeping. Broom-making was a talent. Now it’s become so rare that it’s an art form. People swept, inside and out. Shop-keepers talked over broomsticks. Parents and old ladies threatened with them. Sorrowfully, the broom has been relegated to a cob-webby garage corner.”
Read on to the … ahem … sweeping conclusion.

Thanks for not including the snobby part, Steve!
he is always thoughtful and frequently surprising!
EM: Are you and Ash having some kind of cleaning-gear flame war or something? Oh, you Blogstars and your Paris Hilton/Lindsey Lohan-like rivalries …
Well, Steve, he made fun of my Dyson. Of course, he’s just jealous. Can I be Lindsey?
EM: Only if I get to be Perez Hilton. But straight, of course. Otherwise, my wife would get mad.
what the hell is a Dyson? I’ve never seen anything that would likely be called a “Dyson” when I was at your house…
My Dyson is a high-tech British vacuum cleaner, chall. It actually lives in the basement, most of the time.
Perez Hilton is gay?
Well, i have an iRobot vacuum cleaner, and i guess that makes me a geek who has nothing to do with either Paris or MiniMeParis.
Paris Hilton=Not gay, EM. Barring the standard lezzies in prison joke.
Perez Hilton=gayer than gay. Uber gay. So gay he can’t even sit on the furniture gay. Martha Stewart guest gay.
