The National Enquirer: Son of a Mill Worker fornicates

July 23rd, 2008 · No Comments

It looks like a political figure has once again been caught (or appears to have been caught) in a scandalous situation.  This scandal is bigger than the Spitzer scandal in the scandal matrix, because Edwards has not only been unfaithful to his wife, who is battling breast cancer, but he also has fathered a love […]

Satire? Irony? WTFing the New Yorker cover

July 14th, 2008 · No Comments

 
It’s not that I am upset by the cover, it’s just that a lot of other people seem to be.  The cover is clearly not meant to say Obama’s a terrorist or whatever, but it does kind of seem cartoonish and innappropriate from the standpoint of someone who gets easily offended- which I don’t.  But it […]

Gender specific INSOLES

July 11th, 2008 · No Comments

 
Yesterday I bought insoles, today they’re in my shoes.  I have been wearing these shoes, insoles inside, for approximately one hour and a half and they are vastly improved.  My walk to work used to hurt a little, just from my shoes, and today I walked faster, and yes, even bouncier.  One thing that was […]

Target is the best store.

June 27th, 2008 · No Comments

 
Whenever I visit my parents, I make sure to visit Target before returning to stupid target-less NYC.  I mean, targets exist here, but not in the wonderful, stocked, convenient glory of the suburbs.  Last weekend, my mom bought me this great lime/mustard green sweater dress with a drawstring.  I secretly suspect that my mom bought […]

Slavery still happens.

June 27th, 2008 · 1 Comment

 
Just read this story about a modern day case of slavery.  This woman “employed” two Indonesian woman.  And by employed I mean she beat them and abused them while they worked for her; after she had confiscated their passports and visas.  The family paid the “housekeepers’” families 100 dollars a month.  Besides, doesn’t she just LOOK […]

7up

June 24th, 2008 · 1 Comment

 
7up is the best of the clear liquid sodas.  Not only is it refreshing and bubbly, but it’s not too sweet like sierra mist and sprite are.  Sierra mist and sprite are clear but go down like a syrupy sweet cola whereas 7up tastes like lemony seltzer.  I love 7up.

Tim Russert: Dead

June 13th, 2008 · No Comments

 
Tim Russert died today of a heart attack.   And while I know this is a sad thing and that heart disease is horrible, I just can’t believe how quick the internet is.  I found out like half an hour ago, and look-
Wikipedia already has his death on his page.  Russert was born in Buffalo, and […]

McCain

June 11th, 2008 · 1 Comment

 
I love this picture.  John McCain is hugging President Bush.  Former rivals, this picture shows their reconcilation- and Bush even ran a horribly negative campaign against McCain in 2000!  But whatever, bygones!
If you know someone who is deciding who to vote for in November, don’t get mad when HE says he might vote for John McCain.  That whole “war hero” thing […]

Lesbianism and fame

June 6th, 2008 · No Comments

 
When Ellen came out, it was such a big deal.  For some reason, I feel like she was one of the first famous lesbians; at least that I can remember.  Ellen is now dating Portia de Rossi, who is wicked awesome.  But aside from Ellen, there has been a kind of bump in the amount […]
