If They Called It Piggy Flu People Would Be Much Less Freaked Out

F that. Kitty flu.

Now we’re talkin’.

Thank You For Being A Friend, Bea

Golden Girl Bea Arthur left us today for the Golden Gates. Sigh!
Most of us think of the Golden Girls when we hear the name Bea Arthur, but this woman brought so much talent and raw gutsiness to the stage and screen. With her deep voice & dead pan delivery, Bea was known as a wonderfully [...]

My Myspace Man: Take 1

I love lame pick up attempts on Myspace. I can’t even say pick up lines, because in many cases, these suitors are lucky if they can formulate a complete sentence, never mind something one might consider a “line.”
I’ve decided that it’s just no fun keeping all of their talk about looking for a “good woman” [...]

Wanted: Children’s Musician

I keep seeing an ad for a Children’s Musician on Craigslist. I imagine going to this audition wearing a tuxedo, one of the super fancy ones with the tail in the back. I’d take a seat at a luxurious grand piano set upon a large stages. Upon my interviewer’s cue, I’d crack my knuckles, take [...]

One month ago, Congress approved an incredible expansion of the program, with the number of federally [...]

Man’s Best (Goat Eatin’) Friend

This story is ridiculous, although I’d like to see the footage of the dog in the cage transforming back into their lovable pet. That’d be more compelling than watching it dance around a pool, Today Show.
Anyway, eat your heart out, Lassie: Dog eats baby goats, survives on remote island

Not the Breast Choice

So I think perhaps one of the simplest things that annoys me is inappropriate breast placement. Now, I’m not talking giant breast on cartoon characters or anything like that. I’m talking about the girl at your work that didn’t seem to get the memo on what flatters her body and what definitely does not.
We’ve all [...]

Funky: Good for the Disco, Not So Much for the Fridge

Perhaps one of the easiest ways to feel productive is to clean out the fridge. No matter when you’ve tackled this task last, there always seems to be some salad dressing or tupperware container that somehow made its way through the your last dissection. Oh it’s back there alright, working on some community planning and [...]
