Honoring those who honor the dishonorable

TMZ.com, dedicated to the noble cause of standing by and pointing while celebrities humiliate themselves, is throwing itself a little 1-year birthday bash on Nov. 8. They're trotting out the big guns for this one: Amongst those attending are The Barbi Twins, Shanna Moakler, Tera Patrick, Morgan Fairchild, Cheryl Burke, Samantha Harris - I had to Google most of the above to find out who they are.

Two names I recognized: Cuttino Mobley and Paul Davis of the L.A. Clippers. Hmm. I have Clippers tickets for Nov. 8. I wonder what Coach Mike Dunleavy thinks of having players who're going to play hooky so they can pay homage to a website whose main accomplishments are inspiring weeks of Mel Gibson jokes and filling the Internets with more images of Paris Hilton than one planet can possibly need and graphically demonstrating what a jerk Brandon Davis is - well, and for letting us know that Brandon Davis exists in the first place.
