"[L]ittle if any real work to [do]"?  I don't know at which libraries your friends work, but are they accepting applications?  I love my job, but we work our asses off trying to help our patrons despite understaffing, pay freezes, mentally ill folks yelling at us for no reason, and random computer outages.  Also,

Counterpoint: Bonnie Raitt?  Sade?

Yeah, that was an awesome moment.  I just love the unflinching death stare he gave Peverley.

As a Caps fan, I know a little something about choking during a Game 7.  But, miraculously, we didn't do so last night, so maybe you won't either.  Good luck!

At the library where I work, pretty much all the (many) requests for this book are coming from either women with children or middle-aged women who presumably have had sex before.  I really don't understand the "virgin" part of Amelie's snark here.

I try not to be mean, but I was speculating that maybe Christina chose non-waif backup dancers so that she herself would not appear quite so….sturdy?

My father-in-law was born to an unwed teenage mother in Sweden in the late 1920s/early 1930s.  Her plan, until her father intervened and insisted on taking the child into their home, was to send the baby to a notorious orphanage nicknamed "The Angelmaker."  As might be expected from the name, it was apparently
