Neil Gaiman's latest work,
The Graveyard Book, is a kind of undead Jungle Book, with a man-child being raised by various ghosts and ghouls rather than animals. He's been the whole thing a chapter at a time on each stop of his American promotional
tour, and posting the
videos online (and
blogging about it of course), which means that with tonights reading the entire thing will be available online.

Fans of
Hollywood Squares may remember
Wayland Flowers and his homely, tiara- and rhinestone-bedecked puppet
Madame (they replaced the similarly bitchy
Paul Lynde as center square.) Madame also briefly enjoyed her own show
Madame's Place (
1982, with Corey Feldman!), and also, incomprehensibly, hosted
Solid Gold. It's not easy to find video of Madame nowadays -- YouTube, as an example, only has
one. Her public visibility has decreased since the 1988
death of her puppeteer. (The rumor -- untrue -- is that she was buried with Flowers.)
But even if a puppeteer dies, it's possible for the puppet to
live on.
