    This time last year I went on the South Beach Diet. We had just returned from vacationing down in Florida. When I put on my bathing suit, I looked like a big, mid-baked, fluffy ball of cookie dough. If that cookie dough had been tied up and then stuffed in an oven, that would have…

    Yesterday, I was listening to the radio and the hosts were discussing Jon Stewart and how they felt about how he hosted the Oscars the other night.

    Tobyjoe and I really love The L Word. We watch it every Sunday. But Max – the one who’s working toward a sex change – she kind of gives me the willies. Two weeks ago, Max (aka the lesbian in the picture above) put on a strap-on and had Alan Cumming give her a BJ.…

    Mike Rounds signed a bill today intended to ban most abortions unless it’s necessary to save a woman’s life. The quote below explains what Rep.

    Oh dear, the pro-life/pro-family groups are going to freak out over this one. They can’t very well boycott Walmart, can they? Where on Earth will the get their ammunition to gun down the abortion doctors and homosexuals?

    On Friday, Rachel Maddow talked about a nuclear reactor 30 miles from her home. It’s called the Vermont Yankee. The Vermont Yankee is a 30-year-old reactor. When you visit the Entergy Web site, it boasts that the Vermont Yankee has the ability to safely produce a maximum of 535 Megawatts of nuclear power. It produces…

    It’s Sunday and I feel like sharing. First, I’d like to direct you to this woman. She’s not only a wonderful photographer she’s also a really kind person. I just found out that Rion and her husband are moving to Paris. New York City will miss her greatly. My little brother got a new digital…

    I read something today on a very popular personal Web site that hit a nerve and made me feel kind of bad. (I’m menstrual and dieting, what more can I say?) I know that this happens to a lot of people, they’ll read someone’s Web site and something on there makes them feel sad/angry/annoyed—whatever. (I…

    Tobyjoe and I are in dyer need of a vacation. And it needs to happen soon. In the past we’ve confused the word “vacation” with “large move”. Instead of saving our money and flying someplace exotic and relaxing, we just pack everything up and move. While our drive across the U.S. of A. was a…
