GODDAMIT MONDAY, YOU LITTLE BITCH!

Just heard the news on the radio on my way home. VERY UPSET BECAUSE:

a.) I was just saving up to buy a subscription for myself as a birthday present, and

b.) That magazine is a fucking INSTITUTION and the fucking VOGUE of food magazines. WTF?!

3.) I WANTED TO WORK THERE SOMEDAY, DAMMIT.

If I could go back in time I'd club Rachael Ray like a goddamn baby seal and run fucking Guy Fieri over with the Nissan if it would mean saving this magazine. DAMMIT.DAMMIT. DAMMIT.

I have to go and eat a pint of Ben&Jerry's now, will you excuse me?

They mentioned the Harry Potter Lexicon case this morning on Today, but I didn't have time to wait for the segment. Basically, it sounds like some fan!guy (who publicized fake spoilers, by the way) wants to publish his version of a lexicon and Rowling has filed a restraining order and is upset because she was planning to publish an encyclopedia based on the books.

I have to say, after reading a bit about this online, that I am absolutely baffled at Vander Ark's audacity. He claims to love the series, and respect the author according to the open letter on his site, yet he is pretty much dicking Rowling out of her right to publish the definitive work based on her own ideas. And since it's unauthorized (ie being done without Rowling's approval), that should pretty much put the kibosh on it, I'd think.

Am I missing something?

If so, could someone explain it to me, using nice language and small words that won't hurt my brain?

Thank you. :)
