My mom has always adopted rescue pooches, whose stories are heartbreaking but who perk right up once they're in a loving home. They've all been a little bit different because of the way they grew up. One never learned to play with other dogs — she just never understood what they were up to — but was the happiest, most…

Nope. The 2nd Amendment received its current interpretation in a 2008 Supreme Court ruling. Sorry, gentlemen.

I'm just replying because I like what you're saying here and don't want to see it buried. I mean, those are not nice words. But let's not let this get pushed downstream too quickly, shall we?

Even better, they've shut down most of their (many) Facebook accounts. It's not just that they're not responding, they're hiding. Gross. And yes, they do have an obligation here: the NRA is the lobbying arm of the handgun industry, and they're the loudest voice in a discourse that they created. The 2nd Amendment…

Or Matie and Molly from Self Serve ABQ! They're the best!

I love Lil Bub. LOVE. Also, I see that there's an awful lot of all-caps here. That's just what Bub does to us. She's the best.

Okay, but listen: Mr. Depp was almost in a Don Quixote by Terry Gilliam. I just wanted to point that out. There's a doc about it: Lost in La Mancha.

This makes me feel less alone. Way too much.

That makes me so happy. Thanks for the contact info! Here's another group that's doing good stuff out there: https://www.facebook.com/awwproject

This is, in fact, a not-very-good score.

Hand washing means that is doesn't matter whether you have laundry at home or not. The ladies at Hollywood's Trashy Lingerie told me years ago to hand wash in Suave shampoo, rinse three times, and hang to dry. I alternate between two primary bras and wash each every 3-4 days. Special bras get washed every time, but…

I read that as "Always Be Posting" and will be stealing it for my social media class.

How is it even POSSIBLE that Madame doesn't have a star? Yes, yes, those Henson creatures all deserve it. But really, where's Madame?

My allergenist got me started with Visene eye wipes and they're surprisingly good. I wear contacts, waterproof mascara, and once I week I spackle on the makeup for a TV appearance. The wipes are very soothing and work well with getting all that makeup off.

I agree that being gay and having an abortion are not the same thing. Oddly, though, the evangelicals who are our common antagonists do think that gay is a choice. Plenty of straight women support the LGBT movement — why can't that support work both ways?

I guess I think that the analogy to gays, lesbians, and transgendered people coming out of the closet is somewhat apt. Let's take it a bit further: while you, personally, are not in any way required to speak out about your own abortion, especially not in a public forum, we all benefit from those brave souls who do.

Of course, I found him on Craigslist, which is supposed to be creepy but turned out to be not. And I didn't have to fill out any awful questionnaires.

Before we met, Mr. Maguire saw exactly zero photos; knew from my ad that I was somewhat bossy and very, very busy; and was only allowed one email and one phone call before he had to meet me in public. It wasn't a problem — he's a grownup. Isn't that what we're looking for?

Have you checked SkyMall?

Is every one of these women just impossibly beautiful too, or is that just what happens when you work with a great photographer?
