    What’s the deal with golf, schmoozing and corporate America? Doesn’t it ever bug you that this particular stereotype is so prevalent? It makes me unjustifiably dislike golf and I realize that’s just silly. How come it’s golf and not tennis or croquette or darts or billiards? Why golf? Who set the corporate schmooz standard and…

    One week from today I will be on a beach in Rhode Island. This vacation could not come at a better time. I am having one hell of a painful Monday morning.

    This weekend Toby and I finally saw the critically acclaimed film 9 Songs. It’s a film about a love affair between a 30+ year old man and a 21 year old woman. It’s sexually explicit and, at times, hard to watch. But not for the reasons one might assume. The sex is real. There is…

    It’s 8:58. And I feel a little silly saying so, but I think that this final episode of Six Feet Under might just make me cry (again). And I can’t deny, I will miss these bastards. I really liked getting to know them. Here’s to yet another great show coming to an end.

    Today, I was in the elevator waiting for my stop. I was with a man who was probably about 45 and a woman, age 35. She stood behind me holding a bag in front of her. She was a slender woman, attractive, too. It’s not every day someone speaks in an elevator. I have heard…

    I understand that a family would be devastated after watching their daughter get mauled by a tiger. But will someone please explain to me why the tiger then deserves to be killed? IT’S A TIGER. And somehow I still muster surprise… Please note: If I am ever dumb enough to have my daughter pose with…

    On my 17th birthday, my boyfriend at the time gave me a book. He was 6 years older than me and really liked that fact. I think. He bought me The Complete Stories by Flannery O’Connor. I remember being really excited as no boy prior this had ever gotten me a book before especially one…

    I am not pregnant. I repeat, I am not pregnant. It was a joke. No esta la biba en mi torso. Yo no tengo el biba. No escribe bueno en Espanol, tambien.

    I have a stupid question. Lately, I have been following the BTK case. I read his testimony yesterday and then read today’s article about what the victims’ families had to say. Obviously, this man is beyond twisted. But what I can’t seem to find, is what stopped him in 1991? Did he find God? Did…

    There was a prettty great brief on NPR’s Morning Edition. It’s about how the Democrats often times don’t have a clear message and are losing more and more voters because of it. The part that really has me thinking, however, was an excerpt from a recent speech Clinton gave. He was talking about a close…
