Wonder What the Retirement Plan is Like...

So, here's something depressing: Radar crunched some numbers on what Gawker Media is paying its bloggers after a recent pay cut, and the money those potty-penned kids bring in might surprise you. In fact, I'm not sure what's more depressing: that Gawker bloggers get paid so much, or that there's so much moaning over how little Gawker bloggers are now getting paid.

It's amazing that the neanderthals at Deadspin make money writing like they do and then move on to positions like editor-in-chief of New York magazine. I am a huge fan, but don't read any other Gawker sites.

Ack, no, not EIC, only a "contributing editor"...that can mean anything! And you can certainly do it as a neanderthal.

On a TOTALLY UNRELATED NOTE, are you a Twins/Vikings fan yet?

I've been to a handful of twins games, but really looking forward to year two of A. Peterson, aka Purple Jesus, with the Vikes.
