A Million Little Pieces becomes A Million Little Lies. This article is long, but what it reveals is as disturbing as it is damning to the author, James Frey. I'm not expert on human psychology or anything, but this guy just sounds like the classic nobody. He was unspectacular in high school, college, and adult life, so he fabricates this whole-world-is-out-to-get-me-'cause-I'm-such-a-bad-ass back story that has no basis in fact. Now if he wants to fictionalize his own life to fool a publisher and a few million people and make a fast buck, he would just be another mediocre fiction writer. The creepy part is his insertion of himself into the tragic deaths of two teenage girls. Sorry, but that's just over-the-line. Some people have tragic lives. Frey isn't one of them. His life was just insignificant, then slid into pathetic.

What surprises me is that Oprah is clinging to this sinking ship. As long as she has been in the Business, you would think that a) she would have better instincts than to hitch her wagon to such a loser; and b) that she would have good enough PR instincts to cut Frey's lifeline the instant the accusations started. There is no upside for her in any of this; only downside.

Other than that, I have nothing. Such a life of glamour I lead....
