| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.) |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| Bite Me. |

...which is what everyone seems to be doing, because I can hardly turn the TV channel without coming across something with Sex, Lies, and Murder in the title.
To wit, a little over a week ago, my dear friend Juan sent me an e-mail telling me about a commercial he'd seen for Footballers Wives (a BBC America show that I happen to love; it's waaaaaaay better, smarter, and much more wicked, IMHO, than the Housewives). So Juan tells me about the ad for the show's new season, and guess what the angle of their campaign is?
 How about that?
And then I was watching HBO, and I see a commercial for a new installment of their documentary series, Autopsy. And just what are they calling this particular episode? Yup, you guessed it...
 Biters, all of 'em. That's right, I said it. BBC America and HBO are straight-up biting my shizz.
That's okay. We like being originators. Soon everybody's going to be slapping Sex, Lies, and Murder on their stuff. Let's just see who's going to be bad enough to throw in some Fame.
Amazon.com: Sex.Lies.Murder.Fame.
BBC America.com: Footballers Wives
HBO.com: Autopsy |

Hey Lo! You are so right - I have heard numerous radio adds and thought it was for your book and film, only to discover it was something else!!! Take is as a trailblazing complement. AS we (readers) all know that they are immitating the greatness that is "sex.lies. murder. fame." Since they can't fade you they are trying to get on the LOLITA BANDWAGAON!
