I used to wake up every morning and my little cat Noodles would be sleeping in the middle of my pillow, while I was at the edge of my bed, up against the wall. One night I pretended to be asleep so I could see how that happened. Sure enough, as soon as I started breathing slowly, Noodles came to bed and started…

Second opinion: He’s ugly, too.

The Shape of Water was OK, although I liked the very ripped off original, The Creature of the Black Lagoon, better. But how could you not love this? Maybe not serious, but fun and entertaining artistry.  

Have we so quickly forgotten about bedbugs? Vertoe, especially, sounds like a bedbug vector.

Have you tried Dr. Elsey’s Cat Attract litter? It got our cat using the box. Bonus — it seems to really absorb litter odor. And tip- It clumps like wet cement, so is easier to use if you mix in about 25% of another litter, like World’s Best.

Jinni, once again I am intrigued by your posting and like your attitude. Can you tell more about your lemon peel tea? Anything in it besides lemon peel and water? Lemon juice? Some sweetener?

I lived alone for about 35 years and cooked just for myself, on a low budget. My favorite recipe, which I had once or twice a week: 1. Steam a lot of broccoli. 2. While it is steaming, grate some cheddar cheese onto a paper towel. 3. When it is done steaming, put broccoli in a shallow bowl, pour the grated cheese…

What is this clip from? Is there more where you get to see Bill Bixby’s butt?

While is it very brave for the woman with the speech impediment to make a video, I found it very annoying to listen to.

This reminds me of the part in Jack Finney’s Time and Again (LOVE that book!) where the time traveler is shown reproductions of the clothes in bright colors and reminded that they won’t be faded like the old ones in museums.

People who refer to themselves in the third person are usually assholes.

Monique needs some money so she can invest in a full length mirror. That makeup, that outfit — seriously?

I’ve got to admit, I’ve wondered about Brendan’s junk. have you ever noticed the size of his fingers?

Some years back, I had a friend who used the kind of accounting firm that caters to the rich and makes their life easier by taking care of bill paying. The accountants were always screwing up, doing things like paying bills late so that there were late fees, even though the money was available. When my friend moved…

OK, I’ll say it. I would automatically disrespect anyone named “Derren.” Yes, I know his parents did that to him. Still, Derren?

OK,

Or if they’d built a wall across the Queensboro Bridge...

Whenever I hear of the Doner Kebab, I think of the Donner Family. Ewwww...

The KFC in my hometown used to sell original style fried chicken livers. Haven’t had them since I was a kid. I’ve thought about befriending someone working at a KFC and bringing in my own chicken livers to be fried that way.

Best pizza I ever had was about 18 years ago in Ollantaytambo, Peru. A little patio style restaurant run by Greek woman who made her crust from filo dough because she couldn’t get regular crust to rise at that altitude. Loaded with something she called “tree tomatoes” — rings of rich, tomatoey sweetness that I’ve…
