What good is it going to do to flag a name when there’s only about 15 names in Boston. “Hey, we gawt a hit on Patrick Sullivan! He’s on the list.” “Nice try, Kathleen O’Brian, nawt this time!”

Oh, wow. It really hurts to know that millionaire athletes in town for 2 nights can’t find anywhere to party, because that’s one thing that is really important to a city and state. The less SLC is like LA—that world capital of culture—the better.

Goddamn, I’ve never gotten “cute” before. I am blushing so hard right now I think my brain is being deprived of oxygen . . .

I just want you to be happy. And call your bubbie, she keeps asking about you.

I’ll pass on any comment regarding video game documentaries because I was unaware that such a thing existed. Sports, as entertainment, at least has the drama of an unknown (sometimes spectacularly exciting) outcome, as well as the aesthetically pleasing performance of highly skilled athletes performing physical feats…

I wouldn’t personally put fibromyalgia in a category with R. Arthritis (due to the pronounced correlation between fibromyalgia and a somatic overlay) but I agree with you otherwise.

I work in the medical field and one of the frustrations of care-givers is that people believe that identification of a condition means that there is a solution to the problem. There are numerous conditions (e.g., Crohn’s disease, IBS, fibromyalgia) that can be diagnosed but don’t have any real, widely successful…

It is so much easier to conclude “yeah, that sounds like it make sense” than to conduct the inquiry that demonstrates that it can’t possibly be true (AKA all religion forever).

I had a similar experience (regular, severe suicidal depression rather than PPD) but addressed it in the time-honored fashion of my Scandanavian ancestors by drinking lots and lots of booze. Oh, God, so much booze. Like, bottles of wine starting as soon as I woke up at 6:30 a.m. and checking every bottle from the…

Fair enough, that a good point. I’ve had persistent depression issues that have been resistant to the supposedly miraculous mental health drugs currently on the market. But finding solace in Paltrow (she of the $10,000 golden dildo) and making a multi-millionaire even richer in the process? I just can’t, fuck her to…

I work in the medical field and I’m the first to admit its short-comings, but compared to the idiot copper-bracelet, put-a-crystal-in-your-pussy, juice clense, New Age nonsense from the likes of Paltrow, we’re talking Galieo vs. the Catholic church. Scientific inquiry vs. stuff that just sounds like it makes…

My favorite Goop is putting a crystal in your pussy . . . for some reason, followed closely by steaming your pussy . . . for some reason. In the name of . . . well, something. Gwyneth won’t return my phone calls

I’m not sure who said it but “the bigger the lie the more people want to believe it”. Doubt and uncertainty are too much to bear. A reassuring lie is preferable.

Are there seriously adult humans out there who care enough about a snooty party for rich folks that they’d actually spend a few precious hours of their time on Earth to watch a documentary about who gets to go to the party and who doesn’t? That is absolutely mind-boggling to me.

Probably the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen in baseball. FOUR homers in a row to tie it in the ninth, then Nomar hit a walk off in the tenth. Absolute bedlam in the bleachers. Youtube it, right now.

It’s hard to gin up too much sympathy for the people who buy this stuff. There is plentiful, freely available information showing that Gwyneth and her ilk are completely full of shit. If you’re still falling for it, that’s on you. It’s like joining Scientology and being shocked that it’s a scam.

I think the only way my mistaken “there” works is if I had written “Pick your massive ethics breach. There, all around you!” But I was too deep into my second glass of wine to attempt anything remotely poetic.

I gotcha. In other news, it’s only 6:30 p.m. but I’m drinking a bottle of wine and going to bed. The sun is still up! Doggies are suspicious. I hope the world doesn’t end tonight because I’m going skiing in the morning.

GOING to have a massive ethics breach?! As in, something that is going to happen in the future but hasn’t happened yet? Pick your massive ethics breach, there all around you.

Aretha, like Prince and Bob Dylan, gets a pass for nearly everything short of murder due to, you know, being one of the most talented musicians this country has ever produced. She’s Aretha fucking Franklin.
