My tiara selection is the Greville Tiara. The geometric nature pleases my nerdy heart. I need to have a chat with QEII, because this tiara is so not right for Camilla - the tiara-hair is all wrong, and she doesn't strike me as a squashed-honeycomb sort of woman.

Fun Fact: Tracy Morgan was very insistent that the EMTs trying to save his life and remove him from the wreck know that he is Tracy Morgan. "I am Tracy Morgan! I am Tracy Morgan!"

It's essentially brick red, which I don't even like on actual bricks.

Synesthesia is so fascinating. I'm curious about your color/number pairing. I'm assuming it works in both directions (see a number, perceive a color:: see a color, perceive a number)? Also, can you tell me more about the type of perception you get (see Marsala, also 'see' 5, hear 'five'?)? Does it only relate to the…

I'm not even remotely excited about this color. I was hoping for something in the blue family - maybe a cobalt? Also, Marsala is a hideous color when you look at the actual swatch instead of the flotsam in the photos:

I went to Eckerd for a year - it was in 2001 when Eastman had just become president. The administration essentially sponsored drinking events - Nu Mardi Gras (Nu is one of the dorms) and Kappa Carnival (also a dorm), and Eastman could be found drinking with the students. It was also pretty well known around campus…

Every time I see a penguin or hear someone say penguin, my brain automatically flips it to Pengwing, because that is clearly the far superior (and bizarrely sexy) way of pronouncing that particular flightless bird's name.

I was speaking in general about many places in the US, not about Montgomery specifically. There are places in the US that are desperately trying to ban what they perceive as a threat (Sharia), while openly claiming that laws in the US should be biblically based. I'm highlighting the epic hypocrisy that occurs across a…

I would just like to use this opportunity to mention that the very same people who trying to pass laws banning the supposed threat of Sharia Law, are also trying to force "Christian Law" into actual law..... Because in America you are free to practice your religion as long as it's Christianity, you are free to carry a…

Those heels that Whoopi is wearing are by Julian Hakes, and are called Mojito. They are actually a pretty fantastic feet of engineering (please don't kill me).

This is further demonstrated by the data in an article in Pediatrics showing over a 2 year period there were over 17,000 calls to Poison Control about children under the age of 6 EATING LAUNDRY PODS. They may look like shiny gummy candies, but they cannot possibly taste yummy. Still little kids are EATING them.…

Nope. No wine and no high-grav beer in grocery stores in TN... we finally got a referendum on the ballot this year to allow it, and will go into effect in 2016. Until then we still have to make a separate trip to the liquor store if we want to make chicken marsala.

The only upside to the election in Tennessee is that we can now have wine in grocery stores. 70% of people voted for access to their cab sauv in the same place as their aluminum foil.... Maybe my fellow TN women can just drink away our unwanted (even in cases of rape or life of the mother) fetuses... Aaaaah! Fuck this…

These are all taken from a really weird angle - I know these women are all petite, and built like lollypops, but this really just exaggerates it.

We have a pair of those crazies in our homebrew club... they also think Ferguson is a dry-run for said martial law.... Ugh, the crazies!

YES!!! I saw that and was all "ZOMG! Where can I binge on Noozles?!?!"

Nope. Only 47% of Ww voted R.

I would love to see any data on how women (or men) self-identify. Voting stats are not going to give an accurate indicator of that, so could you provide some research to back up your claim?

Actually... the numbers from 2012 show 44% Ww voted D and 47% voted R.... 47% is still LESS THAN HALF of voting Ww.

Whoa whoa whoa there Lala.... If you are saying you are part of the Ecologist Party you should have capitalized 'ecologist' so we knew you were talking about political affiliation and not a profession. Or you could have called it the Green Party, which is what it is in the US (where we are not very bright apparently),…
