On Nick Nolte's Online Diary

It's been around a while, and is updated only sporadically, but
this parody of Nick Nolte's diary is pretty brilliant, as much for its low-fi design and "good 19th century engravings of the South Pacific islands" as the prose itself. Sample: "Point:
I had long ago overheard an expression, was a few months
back at
the opening of a friend's hibiscus farm, and today I've come to
find I've misunderstood the expression entirely.
It seems 'lift music'
isn't necessarily inspirational music as I understood it, but rather
what the English refer to as elevator music. Appears I owe a few emails
to Neil. All my insistence of him writing more lift music is without
question embarrassing."
And yes,
it appears Nolte himself heard about the blog, was none too amused (
unlike Kevin Costner), and sought various injunctions against it and what not. That's why there's the amply-displayed parody tag in the top left-hand corner.
