This was a real problem for me and my three year old calico cat Missy-Mittens Paws. My cat is also my (certified by the American Society of House Cat Service Animals Association) service animal as I have been diagnosed with with extreme social anxiety and gluten intolerance. Missy (being a calico) has one black pad on…

This isn’t fun. This is the act of an aggressor (Russia), who probing his opponent to determine just how strong (the United States) that opponent is. Russian incursions into Turkish airspace is really beyond that. Military involvement in Ukraine and Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 was a one of the first probes and our…

The Pentagon has a plan on the President’s desk as we contemplate this shit. Do you want to know what that plan is? It has already been approved by AC, here it is: Next incursion into Turkish airspace we will blow what ever is doing the incursioning into oblivion. We have the technology and the capability to make it…

Do American SUV drivers really need an SUV that can move from 0-60 mph in 4 seconds? I’m sure drivers think they do, but it is not difficult, for us, to imagine one of these things plowing through a storefront as its driver looks for his handicap plaque between the armrest/big cup holder and the front passenger seat.…

This happened recently at a high-end Italian restaurant here in NYC with me and my boyfriend and his born-again, homophobic mother and father. They insisted on taking us out for a nice dinner.

These deals are amazing! People seem to be loving them!

Really, the answer is more education, government funding of education, education debt and colleges building more education infrastructure....or people realizing JOBS NO LONGER EXIST. Find something else to do that doesn’t involve shoving food in your mouth, playing video games, anything to do with murder or killing or…

There seems to be NO limit to the American appetite for this “They Shoot Horses Don’t They?” shit. All the contestants are doing this for their kids, wife, brother, father, mother, neighbors who have no legs, cancer, anorexia, in the Iraq, needs money. Desperate and stupidly motivated they high five their way along…

The flags were flying on that play I’ll tell you.

Correction GE90

Nothing burns better than a poorly maintained RR engine. Though to be honest this looks like something started in the cargo bay or in the landing gear.

I guess you think is some how special. Try taking your 2003 Mini Cooper S (Cooper Works) to a Mini dealer in say Manhattan to have the shade latch (on the moon roof) replaced. That is like eating a bag of magic-shrooms and having someone steal your wallet.

OMG! My heart mind and payer thoughts go out to the Cubs and their fans during this terrible scary event! Having said all that to appease the Gods, who gives a shit.

OMG! These all seem to have been written by the same girl! I picture her to be between 5’ 5” and 5’7” tall, sand blond hair, brown eyes, a little chunky for her size maybe about 145 lbs - 153 lbs, smokes and drinks enough to have a whiskey voice, likes to wear cut off jeans with the pockets exposed and has a BA in…

As someone who routinely rides a fixed gear in midday Manhattan traffic I can completely understand this story. I grew up around water and spent a lot of time on boats and at the beach. Can’t swim. Never could. Tried to learn several times (in many very embarrassing ways) but failed at it. But the fucked up part is…

Not sure a properly trained kitchen staff would be offering anything like a cake batter with raw eggs in it for customers to eat, especially if those eggs had been in contact with flour and sugar for more than 24 hours. Yes some “high end” restaurants will offer raw shellfish, poached eggs, sushi etc., etc. but there…

A shattered bat is not necessarily an item that is defective. A normal wood bat is vulnerable to shattering at certain contact points on the bat. For example a bat that makes contact with a ball on the area of the bat’s label or on certain areas around the handle will will shatter. Some species of tree hickory versus…

Here is a pretty good article on this: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/mlb-big-….

In the 1980’s my dad was involved in a case against the New York Mets who were being sued by woman who was hit by a bat and seriously injured. He told me: 1. This happens a lot, so watch where you sit, anything between home and first or home and third on the field level is statistically the worst place to sit, 2. Read…

Someone should have said to Emma, a long time ago, “That’s a very nice idea dear, with your performance art and all, but you really should take up pottery.”
