Whenever this subject comes up, I always get some disappointed by commenters arguing that casting a woman would be "stunt casting" because the Doctor just "feels" male. I'm sorry, we're talking about a character who travels through time and space in a spaceship disguised as a 1960s Police Call Box whose species…

Seriously! I'm from the region and was really curious where this Patomac River was...

Do people not do money dances any more? It's how my parents were able to put a down payment on their first place. And if this tradition can survive in CT (granted Italian-American family living in the non-NY suburbs part of CT) I'm unclear why it wouldn't be found elsewhere around the US...

I have two bank accounts - an old local bank account and a BoA account. My paycheck is deposited into the BoA account and I use that account to pay for all my day-to-day expenses. Because I'm no longer local to the other account, it's a great place to store money that you don't want to be able to access easily. So I…

I just use Excel spreadsheets to track budgeting and tend to break stuff into the categories (i.e. Rent, Groceries, Cable bill, Electricity, Netflix, and Personal). I figure out how much I want to spend per month, divide that money into each category (pretty easy to anticipate for 5/6 of the categories) and subtract…

This video confuses me - how is she going to be taking over the world while in prison? That poor car :*(

Yup! I specifically save up so I can treat myself every few months for something fun. Because if I don't, I'll probably blow the money anyway in a fit of 'WHY CAN'T I HAVE NICE THING?!?!" and then be up shit creek. Much more fun to save up and know you can afford the splurge (makes those other months of penny pinching…

There has definitely been a CSI episode where a roller coaster was used to kill someone! Season 4 - a car ran off the track.

From my experience (so far):

I LOVE their No 2 Pencil skirts - and apparently so does the rest of DC (especially the mid- to late- twenties crowd). I have 2 skirts from that line - one wool, one cotton - and both have held up really well. I think I wear the cotton one every two weeks and the wool one just as frequently in the winter.

To get wonky here for a moment, does anyone live in a state where they're implementing All Payer Claims Databases (APCD)? The idea behind these are that you create a state database of insurance costs so you (the consumer) can make more informed choices. They're still pretty fledgling, but it seems like maternity…

Check out Ohsheglows for vegan blizzard recipes. This one is a favorite: http://ohsheglows.com/2011/07/07/pea…

Have you ever tried making ice cream with a frozen banana? Peel, cut into 1-inch coins and freeze for a couple hours. Use a really strong blender or food processor and it gets thick and creamy remarkably quickly! I sometimes add some almond milk to make it a bit more of a milkshake consistency. Doesn't taste like…

Strange how people who believe this never try to outlaw bacon, polyester, or shrimp po'boys...

Have you seen "Salt"? Pretty fun spy drama starring Angelina Jolie (in a role originally supposed to go to Tom Cruise as Edwin Salt as opposed to Evelyn Salt).

As a 27 year old Millenial women, I'd say the majority of my friends just want to be employed, let alone run a company. Of course, I "joke" when people ask me what my 5-year plan is by responding "finding a job that gives me a couple months off per year and pays me well enough to travel." That's it. Ideally it'll give…

Maybe she heard my friend's talk about the Millenials rise in public transportation and decline in car ownership? It was called "Ladies be Walkin' (in heels!)"

So her name is $Ke$ha?

The movie was a stinker, but I did enjoy watching Henry Cavill in spandex with his chest hair peaking out from his super suit
