She's my age (I'm 51).

This isn't such a small deal, in the overall scheme of things. I was taught in law school, and for the 27 years I've been romantically involved with my Fed Courts professor I've discussed, that the standard of review is what it's all about.

This whole thread just makes me cry. My ex-wife drank, and when menopause hit, she drank a lot more. And more, and more, and more. I don't know when she ever hit rock bottom, because she lied about drinking, and she lied about quitting. She lied about being in AA. She may still lie about all or some of it, but at…

Kouldn't Kare Less West, says this curmudgeon.

I'm just glad A-Rod wasn't running past and yelled out "drop it!" as she was reaching for it.

I feel like I need a cigarette.

Another result of the Alabama law: all of the migrant farmworkers left the state en masse, and crops rotted in the fields. Farmers were crying out for the law to be repealed so that they could get the crops in.

There is a website, baremaidens[dot]com with a WoW, DnD theme. It's mainly stills of women models in themed sets and in and out of themed costumes, but there are some videos, maybe some actual sex.

I had a couple of friends at this event, supporters of Marriage Equality in my state, and they posted photos on FaceBook. They sure never expected it to happen and were tickled as heck.

My friend was in "Arachnaphobia," in scenes with lots and lots of real (and not-real) spiders. Whatever she got paid, it wasn't enough.

So, this means that I shouldn't propose to Kate Upton at a Heat game, because she'll just reject me? Good to know.

Maybe it isn't your memory that's wrong. Maybe it's just your ethics.

If it's a bad MF, woman-protagonist, buddy flick you are looking for, look no farther than "The Long Kiss Goodnight."

I have a friend who wrote a series of chick-lit mystery-romance novels about 10-15 years ago, written in the first person. The male hero's (should they or shouldn't they? I said they shouldn't, was outvoted) looks were often compared to Mel Gibson, especially his eyes.

This is cool, but it has to segue to this:

Don't you know who Edith Jones is? This is no surprise.

He's already got a big case of "the condemns."

Yes. That side of the record references many, many Beatles' songs.
