How is it possible that people who Google pressure cookers get checked out by the feds, people with Arabic names get grilled by airport security, all sorts of normal behavior raises suspicions of the new world order of super paranoia because terrorism, etc. bla bla .... but a freak like this can skip around the world…

Variety is overrated. Lie down, y'all. What's the oooo oooo big deal about positions? Do people decide it would be better to eat dinner while hanging from one hand from a chandelier? Sleep on the kitchen counter? "Let's try X, it's different!" Let's not.

I LOOOOVED 200 cigarettes, and as someone who was that age at that time, it is so spot on re NYC and how we were then. I recommend it highly. Perfect for Saturday night viewing!

Shows what an enormous amount of self-respect and common sense will do to keep you alive and well.

Don't miss this TED talk by her father.

I remember day one on Jez, and I've been a fan ever since. You guys really made something important and different. I look forward to seeing your next challenges. Congratulations, and lots of love and respect.

Major shark-jumping in the last few (oh, hell, 8 years). Also, Elliot just started to piss me off. Daddy Fists.

But if she had cut her losses and used all that time and energy she used for the scams to look for another perfect home, I'm sure she would have found one. Or bought a less "perfect" home and used tha t100K to make some changes. This woman is a stalker; it's just that the house was her love object and the new owners…

Suppose we sent a bunch of people out to "converse" with people having cosmetic surgery, in the name of believing in a god that created beauty in every person, so why should we interfere with that? Or try to stop transplants, because if god decides your kidneys are going to fail, why should we stop that? I think we'd…

When you feel freaked out that someone you grew up watching is looking older, that means it's time to look in the mirror and admit you are a bit older yourself. I'm 59, which means that men who are now too young for me are the same age as the "older men" I dated in my 20s. Sheesh.

What is this "making the bed" she speaks of? My sheets didn't come with any instructions on how to "make a bed". Sheets are to be left piled and scrunched on the bed because cat.

Polly gives good advice because the obviously thinks things through and puts a lot of work into her answers. So does Carolyn Hax. Prudence is bloody lazy. She's been phoning it in for years.
