13. Speaking of "People".. on my airplane, to my vacation, I picked up a
celeb gossip magazine from the seat in front of me called "In Touch" or something like that.

The thing literally consisted of almost nothing but blurbs like "Paris Hilton and friends were spotted at trendy bar 'X' last week where they drank Cosmos until 3AM." That's it. Just a celeb pic, and a dutiful recounting of what bar/restaurant they were spotted at.

A magazine FILLED with just that. And about a third to half the blurbs were about Paris Hilton specifically, who is apparently the PERFECT celeb for mags like this since she is nothing more than a rich, photogenic person who has never done anything of note, and likes to be seen at parties and trendy spots.

Seeing the thing about Karr eating his first class dinner on the plane on TV made me think of that magazine.
