I'm just a sucker for a good rock anthem, so Refugee and Don't Back Down always get me right where I live. My husband and his jam buddies play Breakdown, and even though I've heard it 76,854 times and counting, I agree that it's a winner.

Who is Tom Petty? WHO IS TOM PETTY???? How can you even ask. Listen to Like a Refugee immediately and never ask again.

He's enjoying this whole situation.

Having raised two boys (now men), I can tell you that I sympathized with their pain. I was hoping that they learned to master their own impulses with respect to their sex drive, based on the moral outlook they had developed, which they did (as far as I know).

She's about the same age as my granddaughter, and I'm now a dead person. Dead from cuteness.

You might enjoy Bigfoot Dreams by Francine Prose. The main character has that job and it's hilarious.

Mine has practically disappeared, and I'm quite a hairy person. My hairiness has shifted, and not in a good way.

After many failures, I finally found a good toaster. The maker is Russell Hobbs. I highly recommend the model I got from Vermont Country Store. I love toast as only a toaster can make it!

I like Chelsea, too. As a curly haired person, I hope she returns to a naturally curly hair style some day.

In Boston, they also won't let the veterans for peace march with them. They march behind the 'main' parade.

Where is nicotine? Popular, addictive, and definitely psychoactive.

The Show Your Vagina link no longer shows vaginas.

Taylor Swift, I don't think "meme" means what you think it means.

Love you, Bette, you look great!

Oh, too bad. I was hoping I'd found a solution for you.

Try looking for boot cut. That's what they call it now and I have absolutely no trouble finding them, - the Gap even has them.

I'll bet you do fine. XML is a markup language, like HTML, so you already have a foundation. You might want to brush up on the basics of XML (ie how it differs from HTML). But I think you could also pick it up as you go along.

OK, I'll take your word for it.

Sorry, although I got as far as calculus in HS and scored well on the math portion of the SAT, years of living with no need to do more than basic arithmetic has made me a number ignoramus. I had no idea I was making a math joke.

The way this was written made me think Kesha had swapped the dollar sign for an exclamation mark. Wishing Kesha! the best of luck.
