those kids missed a serious opportunity to live out the boxcar children dreams of my youth.

Rebecca, I attempted to get vodka on my first Thanksgiving spent in Texas, and to my dismay, TABC law prohibits the sale of liquor on Thanksgiving. I am not thankful for the TABC. I am thankful for my secret stash of vodka, and drug stores selling wine and beer.

Christians were smart enough to remove all of the Christ-like qualities from Christ. It opens up a whole new world of making shit up.

Now, OK, I'm not Christian and I don't know a WHOLE lot about Jesus. I do know a few things, though: The followers during his lifetime gave away their possessions to follow him. He gave away his healing for free as an affront to the temple priests who charged for the same "miraculous" works. Also, he trashed the…

I'm not sure why there seems to be this false dichotomy being set up where dolls looking "realistic" has to mean "having every single possible flaw known to man." "Oh well she's got zits and stretch marks but she still doesn't have bushy brows and bad hair!!!"

First, I think there's nothing wrong with looking at all kinds of things. I mean, I look at dresses online at night. It's my "night cheese" that I like to work on.

I'm guessing that if you aren't willing to answer questions about a divorce, maybe you don't write and publish an article about said divorce? If I were discussing underwear with a stranger, I certainly wouldn't begrudge them their curiosity about the color of my own. But what a wonderfully condescending response.…

Yes, fuck science. Lets just imagine things are the way we want them to be and let that be that.

I took it as they're grown men, so they should know better?

Maybe Camille Cosby is standing by Bill for a reason entirely different than one considered out here. Maybe she believes him. Not because it's rational, but because it's easier to believe the word of a person you know and love than it is to believe the word of a stranger, or 15.

Years ago, I was driving a client to court for something dealing with custody— she was a client at the domestic violence shelter I worked at. On the long drive, we happened to pass the place where she married her husband, and she started quietly sobbing. After a couple of minutes, she said, "You don't marry someone…

"I'm not perfect, but at 42 years old I can say that I've never even been drunk. I've never smoked or done any drugs. I'm as pure as pure can be."

He's just citing the well-known fact that one attractive woman is all any man would ever want.

I had to disqualify myself for this year's competition. So, congratulations to the "winner".

If it ain't broke..
