She has amazing toes. Mine have been slammed into so many things (not to mention that one bunion).

I found the bit about Michelle Obama a little confusing. So there was a makeup artist who made himself (or herself) look like Michelle Obama and then Figueroa compared the makeup artist who was supposed to look like Michelle Obama to a Planet of the Apes character? And then because this was an official event of some…

What did you do about that situation?

Pro-tip for travellers, normally you give the credit card number when you check in and they only run it when you check out. There is absolutely no reason anyone would be calling you in the middle of the night. Good on you for not handing it over.

Damn straight. I would have been calling my scheduler :)

Too lazy to google, but a duchess ranks lower than a countess?

You guys, I have one important question..Where was the Dowager Countess of Grantham? Kate didn't get the full experience if she didn't take the brunt of at least one cutting remark. Or perhaps did the countess not attend because she didn't want to be outranked by a princess? We need to know these things!

Testosterone aside, you really think that if one of your nearest and dearest (your mom, dad, sibling, whomever) had a devastating illness and needed your help in order to survive, you'd abandon them? It's one thing to think you'd be bad at it—being a caregiver is hard on many levels, but we're talking about actually…

I think you've made an incredibly insightful comment. It seems less likely to me that men are just discarding sick women they loved enough to marry, than that they have no idea how to aid or contribute to her. After all, if you've been raised to protect and provide but the enemy is devastating illness, you don't…

I'm also mixed and have been to the Deva salon several times. They are a bit ridiculous with the lectures about not brushing your hair, but I have been brushing mine for 30+ years and it's in great shape. I just do it when completely wet and saturated with conditioner. For me, the best tip was not to shampoo with…

I'm counting on that and my rack.

I feel certain that I could buy love with for much less.

My trick is to pay the big bucks to the professional bra-fitters every few years but then to go on ebay to search for replacements. My favorite bra right now retails for $85, but on ebay I never spend more than $30 for brand-new, never worn items. Just write down the name or style number and search away.

Co-signing on the bra-fitting. It really is life-changing, your clothing will fit much better and you will feel more supported and comfortable. You may actually find you have a different body than you thought.

They actually shut down the west side highway and a couple of blocks in all directions surrounding the Freedom Tower due to falling ice last year. NYC is serious about keeping the traffic flow moving, so I agree that it must have been very damned serious. At the time I assumed the problem would remedy itself once…

That is entirely possible. I really love London, by the way.

Maybe it's just my experience, but I've had some wankers. Sorry to hear about your Goldman bro (not our best export). :)

Personal experience. I've worked in the field for 10 years, both in the US and London and with English and American management. It's not like things are fab here, but there seems to be more concern and awareness around the idea of sexual harassment, whereas abroad it's not really on the radar.

I looked up their management team and as I suspected, most of them are English. This is more controversial than I usually get on-line, but in my professional experience, the combination of being male, British and and in finance, is not a great one when it comes to understanding the components sexual harassment or…

I was one of those people and it's because in her break-out songs, she sounded exactly like Madonna, as in I thought Madonna had come out with some new pieces and then realized they were sung by this new person. She then marketed herself in a way to make herself seem shocking (not unlike Madonna). I wasn't a huge…
