So someone wrote to the Observer suggesting–in the nicest, possible way, really. really–that maybe it’s your “yucky” outfit. Maybe the expensively groomed people you’re covering aren’t recoiling at your little tape recorders, dear Observers, but at your obvious lack of style. Why not dress like the people you report on? It can only help loosen their finely lined lips. “Or, you know, you could bring back Candace B. :)”
Whoever wrote that, I hope you meet George Gurley after too many mojitos. Because in Choire’s now-Daily Transom, not only have they brought back Candace B., but this time, she can actually write.
