“You might say, as I have on numerous occasions, ‘Looking good,’ ‘Wow, what a great dress,’ ‘Great legs,’ ‘I love your hair.’”

I read the article in People magazine and I have to say that what really hit me was her saying that they met in this penthouse above Central Park but that she never got to see the view. Beside everything else of course.

Funny, my hay fever seems to be flaring up right now.

Please, please, please can I be your internet friend? You can take Ginger as BFF.

Are you still talking to your mother?

I have never received really insulting gifts, but there was the time when I was still a teenager and my sister-in-law’s family came over. My mom said that she had been too busy to get me a proper gift and she sent me out to buy an extra gift for myself - so I bought my own Christmas present for me to discover under…

I would not be surprised if CPS kept a close eye on her.

The woman has all of her 14 kids in her custody, 8 of which are the same age (so forget the Duggar parenting style called “raise your sibling”)? 

Now that is cool. Almost as cool as driving a slightly battered, utterly reliable Geo metro.

OK Michelle, we miss you. No need to rub it in by being awesome any time you get the chance.

I am very happy for you, but please do not say anything against Geo metros.

I think it was John Grisham (not sure) that I heard not too long ago explain that he never ever wrote sex scenes because once he wrote a scene that he was really proud of and had his wife read it. He said that the sound of her laugh convinced him never to try again.

That makes me so happy. Because I love Bill Clinton, despite all the sleaze (and also despite the fact that I have never met him).

I love it!!!

Hugs from this internet stranger, who is also the baby of the family. For many reasons I rarely see my siblings - including over the holidays (!) - but I love them dearly.

Thank you for articulating so many things that are wrong with this movie. I have never understood the appeal of this deeply offensive work. So many amazing actors in it (Knightley, Grant, Freeman, Firth, Rickman, Neeson, Thompson), and one appalling storyline after another. I would say that Grant’s is the least…

Garlic is the best. From infection to vascular problems, not to mention intestinal parasites, it is incredibly helpful.

Hang in there then. And please take care of yourself.

And this goes for you too. Suicide takes a toll on all of us.

My heart goes out to you. Is there any way you can keep them away?
