How to Contact Me: Please don't ever use any e-mail address involving the domain "mattwelch.com"; in transferring my site to a new hosting service, I lost the ability to block out most mattwelch.com addresses, so there's a backlog of at least 100,000 spam messages.

Also, ever since that traumatic and technologically daunting Daylight Savings Change episode, I've no longer been able to receive my latimes.com e-mails at home. So if you need to get ahold of me for any reason -- and this weekend, I can think of many interesting reasons -- please use mleewelch-at-gmail.com.

Remembering Cathy Seipp: My inadequate contribution is here. Public funeral Friday at 10; I hope all of you who read this site and know her and live in Southern California consider attending.

Never Mind the Boo-Hooing ... Here's Cathy Seipp! Our great pal is leaving us soon, but while she fights (and oh god, I've never seen someone fight like her), there's nothing much to do on a site like this except to show some of her excellent babe-tastic photographs. Like this one, interviewing Bill Blass:

Or how about the smokin' hot teen from 1970s Los Alamitos:

Here's one I just love: it's Cathy yukking it up at her own roast last fall, where -- even though she was well over four years into a cancer that's supposed to kill you after two -- she still manages to look a helluva lot better than Basart, Breitbart, and Roman Genn:

Here she is last summer with Emmanuelle on Goleta Beach:

This probably says more about her than anything, despite my game attempts to ruin the moment with terrible photography:

OK, good night.
