Snip Snip!
A friend of mine had a baby boy last week. Nico wrote me yesterday to tell me the news. I couldn’t be happier for them. After Nico forwarded me the email, we got to talking and the whole circumcision thing came up. I must say, the whole “to snip or not to snip” question hadn’t…

Sometimes Bigger Really Is Better.
Seriously, Jen Hunter’s right, who would you rather snuggle up to?. Marianne Berglund looks like she was recently released from a concentration camp. Here is another article. “Ms Hunter’s rival Marianne Berglund, 18, is clinically underweight. The judges have told her she has a ‘great’ body.” I’m not even sure what to say about this…

Kramer Pulls a Mel. Freaks Out Entirely.
Michael Richards, aka Kramer, lost it on Friday during a stand up comedy routine. He began screaming racial slurs after a two members from the audience began to heckle him.

Narcissism? Let's Be Honest.
Immediately following the news about the Crocodile Hunter, a chorus of dramatic comments and stories rode in on a tidal wave of narcissism. Have you ever noticed, that no matter what the news story many bloggers will find whatever way possible to talk about him or herself? We’re so thoughtful and creative and amazing and…

Our Hole.
By now everyone has heard what Mr. Nagin said to 60 Minutes reporter, Byron Pitts. If you haven’t, I’ll repeat it. Byron Pitts confronted him about how he’s taking too long to clean up after Hurricane Katrina. To which Nagin replied, “You guys in New York can’t get a hole in the ground fixed and…
