What polls? Who? That’s not true. You’re lying.
Laura Bush was asked to talk about her husband having the third lowest approval rating of any president in 50 years. When she was asked why she believes that the American people are losing confidence in President Bush, she said, “Well, I don’t think they are. And I don’t really believe those polls.” OK, then.…

An Incurable and Necessary Sorrow.
I woke up at 3:30 AM to the distant sound of cats fighting. We have three cats. And although one might immediately assume that the sound was coming from inside the apartment, I can assure you, the sound was not. Earlier that day, we had ordered a bottle of wine while sitting outdoors at a…

Racist DJ Gets the Axe
Many years ago, when I first moved to DC, a very popular morning DJ was fired from his job for saying something inappropriate on the air. He was discussing Lauren Hill’s booming success album. She had just been nominated for 10 Grammys and I guess he couldn’t understand why. Around that same time, a Texas…

Elvis Costello, Chinatown, and Three Ladies Drinking.
Besides the fact that it’s supposed to rain for three days straight here in the Big Apple, my weekend plans look promising.

Who’s Magic Now, Bitch?
My first love was George Burns. I was no more than 6. There was a bit of an age difference and so I decided that it was time to find a new crush. And while my brother and I used to sit on padded bar stools in our living room and crank up the hit…

Turn and Face the Strange
We’re in the process of moving (and changing) mihow.com. You may have noticed. During the transition, the last two days are no longer with us (awwww). Sometimes, that happens. (They still exist, so if you would like to see them for whatever reason, let me know.) Anyway, if there is anything buggy or weird about…

R.I.P.
As of this afternoon, our beloved sky-bridges have been destroyed. For those who aren’t from Brooklyn, or who haven’t ever even been here before, the waterfront has been featured in numerous films throughout the years. Its architecture looks like something out of a train set. Its buildings have served as inspiration for many, many artists…
