This makes me insanely happy. Everyday when I was a kid my neighbor Ginny would come over in the morning before school and we would watch Jem together and then run for the bus. I have fond memories of this show. I loved Jem. I have vivid memories of playing with her and my Kimber doll (who came with a keytar, of…

Either they sign a waiver afterwards (people with blurry faces didn't sign the waiver) or there is a sign before they enter the area or building indicating that something is filming and by entering the area they are giving permission for their likeness to be used. Both are common.

Well now I'm bummed that I wasn't in this, cuz they totally were looking for random Jez commentators to participate. . .

I took mine with a digital camera in my dad's hall bathroom. The State Department website has a feature where you can size down the photo to their specifications. As long as you have a way to print it you can control it.

Since that sound once ended with my cat depositing three perfectly formed, yet disgusting, mouse carcasses under my legs while I sat on the couch I have lived in fear of it. Seth speaks the truth.

Unfortunately, yes.

The judge didn't say that the defendants weren't racist so much as the First Amendment protected their rights to cast whomever they wanted.

Butterfly exhibitions are hardly novel, science museums do them all the time. I wonder what the difference was here that made it inhospitable to the butterflies. I'm wondering what the installation was like, since the science museum try to recreate some aspect of the insect's habitat. Were they even feeding the…

I really hate makeup and think I look worse with it on, so I just don't wear it unless I have to. I'm also terrible at doing hair and the ponytail is my only trick. I would clearly do terrible at this company.

I don't mind them, but don't understand why they have become ubiquitous as day bags. They are designed to be rolled up and fit into another bag. In other words, they are supposed to be overflow bags. I have a knockoff that I throw into a suitcase when I'm traveling in case I buy something. It's perfect for that…

I don't remember having a specific talk with my parents other than tid bits here or there. They were always open with me, but I honestly don't remember it coming up. We did have an excellent sex-ed unit in my fifth grade science class (right after we finished "The Voyage of the Mimi"). The book was used was really…

For reals. I have a family friend who's a theater actress who has been on three different times in three different roles. I also have a friend who's a wardrobe person who was Vincent D'nafrio's dresser on CI.

It's funny, I still go in from time to time because I like their jeans, and you can occasionally find gems hidden among the teeny-bopper-baiting crap. A hot pink blazer I picked up last month has gotten me a lot of compliments, and even more so when I tell people where it is from.

Shortly after the convention I painted my nails with the Essie Chinchilly color, just because I like the color. I was getting questions left and right about whether or not I was copying the First Lady. Not copying, inspired.

I hadn't noticed, but I will admit that it's been a few month since I made a batch. But even if you sub out the Toll House morsels for a different brand, the recipe itself it still one of the best.

Both my mom and I would be in so much trouble with this thing. I have never found a recipe that beat the Toll House cookie in my estimation. It's still the best cookie recipe I've found in terms of ease and deliciousness, and I'm sure it would be instantly disqualified for being unoriginal. Oh Well. I'm really…

I've been rocking the Puma Zandy flat all summer (they even got me through a trip to London), I can't recommend them enough and I always get compliments.

Exactly. I'm always curious about the answer, but learned a long time ago that's none of my business and certainly none of my business when I first meet someone. If it comes up in the course of conversation then I will be truly interested in the answer, because I'm interested in genealogy and history. But it is not…

I came back from London last month on a flight that had a lot of Canadian Olympians on it. They all had the same standard-issue red and white luggage. I was amazed no one seemed to walk away with the wrong bag.

Maija Isola (the designer of the Unikko pattern, and most of the iconic Marimekko fabrics) was a genius.
