Column: Two points for honesty

September 21, 2004

Yeah, I'll admit to it. I actually took a page out of Britney Spears' relationship guide. God, if there's one chemically-colored pop star I dislike, it's that ex-Mouseketeer, but that's besides the point. Outside of her 55 hours of wedded bliss, before yesterday that is,...
