Like Joanna, you hit the point. When I first heard about this story and it’s quote it did not surprise me. I am well schooled in evangelical culture, and even to this day know women that will not be alone in the house with any kind of workman if their husbands are not there. In the 60's it was called “the Billy…

OK then, you and Ashley are on fire. Jez is getting it’s spirit back. May your tribe increase.

unfortunately, there are always those that are lost, and will always join in. It’s horrible that people like this take advantage of a sometimes a true spiritual event and turn it into a following for their own profit.

This. There are a whole bunch of people that actually voted for Trump thinking this. They don’t care about earthly things, only that they think they are the bunch that will be spared all the suffering. Weird doctrine, if you ask me.

Thanks for remembering her, honestly. It’s easy to discount women like this, and I will always remember the mock parody of her in All That Jazz. Rona was the last of the gossip queens, but did it with a lot of style, in spite of the garbage thrown her way. Barbara Walters had to earn her chops as a journalist first to…

Sorry, children, but there really is a way to drop that bass. Perhaps it is because I can’t imagine going to a concert like this so self-conscious and worried about what everyone was wearing. Maybe it was the drugs.

I will tell you without apology that the movie in the 90's rocked my world and I will tell you why. When Robert Duvall went from ritual conception to giving her his moves told me everything Ms. Atwood was trying to tell us about this world as a female.

Big breasts=More Sexual and can not be associated with anything except desire, sex, death. Have you all not learned anything about female sexuality in advertising in the last 2,000 years???

I miss hats. I also miss my glove collection from the 80's. There is a turquoise wrist length random one laying on my floor that will probably never see it’s mate again. Same for a white and black polka dot elbow length. From who knows where, fell out of some random drawer or packed up box. Still makes me happy to see…

In all honesty, I wish PP had not made a political endorsement. In these days I see how it might seem necessary, but it makes me uneasy for a couple of reasons: it gives the GOP more leverage on the issue than it deserves and handicaps any message one might hope to give those sold out to the idea that PP is only for…

“Jamoke” just doesn’t have a punch quite like ‘Ya’ll Qaeda” or if you want to quibble about it being a Western state “VanillaIsis”. I’ve been a little obsessed with the #yallqeada twitter feed since it started. I think it’s genius. Especially because when trying to rebut it or make a lame comparison or false…

Usually, in my life at least, good ideas happen in California and drifts eastward. And this is a very good idea, in my opinion. The whole “quotient” factor worries me a little as far as value is assigned to an an actor. It evidently is now a negotiating tool how many followers you have on social media. Or maybe that’s…

I don’t get You Tube stars. There were a whole slew of them at some awards show and I didn’t recognize one of them. Is this really a thing that is likely to keep going? I like to think I keep up with pop culture cause I’m a teacher and I like to surprise my students, but this one got me. But then again, sometimes it’s…

This is a horrific story, for woman and child. Who was there for this woman before she became so desperate? No. One. And the end result is so much worse than any political posturing could ever justify. Coat hanger abortions like this should have ended forever when Roe v Wade was decided. We have sat idle for too long…

Human bodies next to each each other most the time equals good. Morning sex after a one night stand equals even better. Good / Bad sex after a raging drunken hook up just to make yourself feel alive on the planet equals OK. No shame in your walks after, people. Be safe, be honest, use protection and go out and make…

I like the way you think.
