(Or four items I saw on the web today and decided to link to in lieu of writing something interesting.)1. A new �3,000-a-night luxury hotel, which will replace useless trees and stuff.2. An RTE drama whose contemporary “cred” resides in the fact that its characters don’t go to mass and “spend their weekends drinking and doing e.” (The six-part Pure Mule from RTE this autumn. )3. Or, for that matter, glossy brochures that mess up basic grammar (again from the RTE schedule PDF):”FAIR CITYIreland�s favourite home-produced drama continues it�s [sic] four times a week run throughout Autumn [why the cap?] with more dramatic and realistic plots effecting [sic] the daily lives of the inhabitants of Dublin�s Carraigstown.” And isn’t the soap(referred to as “Fairly Shitty” in this home) already rather dramatic (i.e. implausible and not realistic) as it is? So how’s it going to ratchet up the tension? With the arrival of the Cosa Nostra amongst the local crims?4. A new novel from Bret Easton Ellis. Not really specific to Ireland, but we still don’t need it…
