For fun, I punched in my ex-in-laws, who are 88 and 93. They moved in to our house and now my ex-wife is their primary caretaker. She sees them every day, except for the odd day when she might be out of town, so 360 times a year.

When I saw my mother last year, she did not know who I was when we met, and she frequently forgot who I was throughout our two-hour lunch. She repeatedly asked my son, her only grandson, who he was and whether he went to college. She didn't know who my sister was, either when we met or at certain points during lunch.

Maybe they chose the owl because of Bryn Mawr.

I know her as a black actress who is attractive to me, and I read about the sexual assault history. Good for her to come out and say what she did.

I'm an atheist, but I attend (the 7:30 a.m.) Catholic mass at our local parish from time to time. It is really soothing, and it is heartening to see these mostly little old ladies getting such satisfaction out of the service. Even though I lapsed as a Jew in 5th grade in 1973, I went to mass all the time when my…

Shit. We sent both of our kids to Brown's summer program. Neither ended up going there for college, but they had a good time there for those few weeks. If they want to go to an Ivy, they can keep going to their mom's reunions in New Haven. That's the only way I ever got close.

Thank you. I saw them in the photo, but people sometimes go to events together when they aren't "together." I also haven't followed their personal lives, other than basics, which are obviously several years out of date.

She's in a relationship with Dwayne Wade? She must like athletes.

Not vegan, whether that is a plus or a minus to you.

Do college young republicans have sex lives? I thought that was the main reason they were republicans in the first place, because either no one wants to have sex with them, or they are too conflicted/indoctrinated/damaged to want to have sex with someone else. Hurting others who have happier, more satisfying, or…

My step-mother and sister went to Bryn Mawr ('60, '81, respectively), and they never had one ounce of respect for the men at Penn. Of course, they didn't really respect the men at Haverford, either, but that was where my sister's boyfriends came from. (I don't know when Penn began to admit women. Yale's first full…

Couldn't the gub just get a PFA (or whatever a domestic restraining order is called in Florida)?

Mulan already was a superhero in her own right, until Disney decided to Princess-ize her.

First, I saw her in a movie recently (set at the Beach), and it sure looked as if she had had plenty of dance lessons as a kid. She played an aimless woman wasting time in the winter in Rehoboth, where (I can testify) it can be really cold.

Oh, shit! Do you mean people noticed?

Pull down your dress here's a kick in the ass
Let's beat you blue 'til you shit in your pants
Don't move, child got a big black stick
There's six of us babe, so suck on my dick!

Gosh, I just thought of how unhealthy her deep tan is. According to my doctors, a tan like that would be a death sentence for me (because of my meds).

If this got any closer, perhaps we could create Oklahoma-specific "sporting" events. I'll go first. How about "The most inventive excuses to avoid being fired while you have to miss work due to a 24-hour waiting period between first seeing a doctor and being able to obtain an abortion."

I think they are missing the issue. If the problem is that reporting of sexual assaults is high, then they should just ban reporting of sexual assaults.

I just got back from the (upstate) celebration of Equality Delaware, which managed to get civil unions passed a couple of years ago and to get a law passed last month that will convert them to marriage on this coming Monday. Certainly a bunch of happy people.
