Almost three years ago, I lost a friend to a flesh-eating bacteria, which the CDC felt she may have contracted at her gym. I'm so, so glad to hear this young woman's was caught before she succumbed. I'm also glad to see light being shed on an infection that is not near as rare as Westerners may think.

Kama Sutra, Man! There is a variation of 'missionary/man on top' for everyone...Sex FTW.

Get 'em Andrea!

"It's too perfect. Too beautiful. Too...right."

I don't do McDonald's when I want fast food burgers, but who am I to judge? I just had four big handfuls of Dorito's for breakfast...

I highly recommend the writer of this piece try the new, updated versions of 'low-cal/healthy/diet' frozen meals! The ones in the bags are nice and so are the Top Chef line of, I think, Healthy Choice? I'll admit a few of those noted here used to be in heavy rotation with me, but dang, the portions are just too…

I have to disagree with the last paragraph of this piece. From what I can tell, the footage of the show gives us a glimpse into lots of things wrong with their marriage, starting with they didn't know each other very well. They had serious communication problems and couldn't even have a discussion about where to…

I don't think they asked her because she's a woman per se, I think they asked her because her success has lead to a life of privilege. *shrug* I have been single foreva and have always lived alone, so if I don't do it, it doesn't get done, so my answer is 'yes, I gotta do that too' to whatever it is. *again shrug*

As a violinist myself, Hahn-bin enchants me. Expressive, talented and exquisite violinist, he is...*dreamy sighs*

That was exactly my question. I mean, does an artist now have to be totally educated on what the director is 'selling' her? Or the record company? Seems someone should have caught this before it went down.

I agree with you both, but pump your brakes: nothing justifies not searching for young black girls. It just goes to show, in my opinion, how even us black folks can pull the race card. Ticks me off...

*hand shot up into the air*

I'm sorry to share this sentiment, but Herman Cain is the kind of Black Man that, as a Black Woman, I just can't stand. He creeps me out, and takes pride in his persona as an Uncle Tom and truly thinks he's better than others. There is something backwards about him to me. Of all the contrasts of Black Manhood that…

Isn't this a common game called 'Christmas Capers'? I played in college once and the object was to pass the abducted lawn decorations from each other's living rooms! LOL Nothing like coming home to find your roomie let your boyfriend and his buddies hook up a Santa and four lighted reindeer across your bed! Even…

Bwhaahaa. Exactly.

What does 'gays openly serving in the military' have to do with 'our children openly celebrating Christmas'? What is the thread that makes these opposite yet equal? Sick of Republicans jumbling their own incendiary phrases together to say a bunch of nothing, outside of saying something to make other Republicans…

Totally agree.

Dang, I feel for people whose attraction to the opposite sex is confined by these 'categories' of age. I'm 40 (about to be 41) and I likes what I likes! Since my 30s I've been attracted to and in relationships with younger men (up to nine years), men my own age, and now find myself being attracted to a 'certain…

Agreed. We have to remember, in 'reality' television as in our own real lives, there is NO one way of perceiving, interpreting or communicating anything. And, as I have said before, you need not be committed to an institution to be suffering from even a tinge of a mental illness or disorder that tangibly affects…

Bruce Willis: is he Demi's DAD or EX? I'm all for him defending his children and all, but long ago I felt he'd crossed the line of being to omnipresent in Demi's marriage to Ashton. Remember all the hooplah because they were always hanging out and then Bruce 'gave his approval' of Ashton, and then he never faded…
