1. If that picture doesn't convince Lindsay that she needs serious help, then nothing will. You know it's bad when Dina Lohan looks younger and fresher than you.

No, I know. I thought the exact same thing. :-)

I saw the movie last night, and enjoyed it. Then again, I didn't feel the need to immediately change my entire life to snag a man. I don't know, I must have my own mind or something to not be easily swayed in one way or the other. Sometimes a movie is just supposed to be a form of escape for a couple of hours. I…

I'd be Belle, too! Except the yellow dress version.

WHAT?! Um, not okay. I will totally fly wherever you are and punch that lady out so you don't have to worry about deportation. No one insults a dog and gets away with it on my watch, especially a CAT OWNER.

I'm pretty much a sissy and have never hit anyone, but if someone legitimately insulted or threatened a.) my parents, b.) my best friend or c.) my dog, shit would get real, real quick like.

Worst day ever.

Haha, my dad is a HUGE fan of "No Reservations," but his idea of gourmet is Arby's over Big King. I do sometimes tease him in asking, with mock horror, "What would Anthony Bourdain say?"

You would really be surprised at how easily able-bodied employees are able to adapt to accommodations made for others. In fact, people without disabilities often use accommodations that were originally intended to merely be there for ADA compliance (wheelchair ramps being the most obvious example).

Look, I get Paula Deen's recipes are freakishly unhealthy, and I understand how she may have an irritating persona. But Bourdain is just a jackass ... he seems to get immense pleasure from hating on others simply because he's somehow established himself as the all-knowing Food God. My grandpa used to tell me that…

I agree, but I don't think the disability interfered in this case. She could have been accommodated, and easily so (she simply asked for a stool). I don't know about your former workplace, but the Starbucks restaurants I've frequented certainly have enough space for a stool by the coffee maker and a stool by the cash…

I absolutely agree. Excess fat and sugar, plus the hormones pumped into the animal products we consume.

Has anyone read the "Left Behind" series? I seriously can't decide whether Bachmann or Perry fit the exact description of the devil.

You know, I am not against a children's book that encourages healthy eating habits and exercise. I'm even not really against a book that showcases a 'transformation' ... not necessarily losing weight, but maybe "Maggie" (or whoever) goes from being a couch potato to soccer star through practice and teamwork. Childhood…

Yay, Blanche!

Speak for yourself. My allosaurus had to be muzzled. :-/

They're still trying to court the "moderate" voters, i.e. either the easily gullible or simply practical. Visible hatred doesn't work as well on those two groups.

I have a feeling Jennifer Hudson is that person who always has to "one up" you. You know, that person who is always "You lost 40 pounds? I lost 80." "You moved into a condo? I bought a house." "You won a Golden Globe? I won an Oscar." She's probably a perfectly nice person and you'd invite her to hang out with the…

It's like he heard the etymology behind O-Bam-A-Car-E!, and thought he could do one better.

Yup. I attend two conservative, Christian-based colleges, and the MRS degree was a prominent major.
