I remember. I think there was one at Potomac Mills in Northern Va. I know this whole article was to kinda, gently mock L.V. but I loved those catalogs in the pre-web days and would buy stuff from them. There was a trend in the early 90’s of lots of baskets and “homey” touches in homes and we had just married and moved…

A long article to basically say that the internet and technology has changed everything including glossy profile pieces about stars. Now the writers basically have to completely fluff the subject or they get no interview and no exclusive photos.

Needless to say you are still a fan. Anyone could tell from reading that article. If she does it again will you be just a teensy weensy bit more harsh with her?

Kara you worked so hard to not call her out that you must have gotten constipated after writing all that. I am afraid that she is not the hero that you had hoped. I think despite all the lip service she gives and you point to, she is not so concerned with “women” getting money as she is with “Her “getting money. Any…

I got this same camera for Christmas around 1982. Technology didn’t change so quickly then. The same product could be sold exactly the same way for a decade!

You guys are just too cool for school. You should feature the dated I-phone 5 next.

But Ariana pulls it off better. She is a sexy baby. Miley is a baby who smokes cigarettes and needs her diaper changed constantly.

Who does she appeal to per se? The adult baby fetishers will love this but who exactly else?

Exactly. These are not our Father’s Republicans. Only the name remains the same. They should just change it to Teaparty.

You are not an asshole, at least on this point. I totally agree with you. I wonder if my kids will have any contact with me after they leave. They might or they might not. I expect it will probably take a few years to happen. Or maybe it won’t. Tracy is completely on point here. Children do not have to have a close…

As an introvert who has always struggled when going for a long visit anywhere, a car that you can just hop into and get going is the BEST escape hatch!

I appreciate what you said. Those words were earned. I haven’t had the same experience but I wish I had put more distance between myself and my parents. I did physically but I had so internalized all their values that it really affected the way I led my early life.

...adjust your expectations.

“Family is Fuckery” I shall embroider that on a pillow. Perfect.

I think that at the time of a third marriage, the couple should probably just go ahead and pre-sign the divorce papers and have them filed at the Lawyers just to make it more efficient when the inevitable happens.

I doubt my sister would bail me out for something like this. I don’t think “family” is that reliable. This dude is lucky to have a rich sister who loves him.

This is why I probably won’t watch it. I actually come from an area not so unlike where she grew up and it is a little more earthy and dirty and not so well lit. From this trailer, this looks like a producer’s fantasy of what that kind of like is like. Dolly is probably a producer but she understands selling her image…

Of course they are sexual beings. We are sexual beings from birth. Any human development text will explain that clearly. I would think that a generation that grew up on Brit Brit and Xtina would be a little more liberal in their views on teenage sexuality and adult themes. But yet I get the vibe from some of my nieces…

Ted Cruz = Frank Burns (from MASH) Old reference I know but I think fairly correct.

Why does every snippet of background music nowadays have to be so overproduced? Sawing violins and cellos, chorus effects? A little mandolin or banjo on this would have been authentic and made the overly slick looking movie a little more down homey.
