Unrelated to sfaxing, but we hire teenagers in the summer to help with filing and one girl asked me if I knew who Eminem was. I feigned ignorance and she proceeded to play me some of his songs. I told her that he sounded a lot like Slim Shady. She had no idea who that was. I then told her that he sounded a lot like a…

Here's a link to an article about what was stricken and what wasn't.

Is there anyway that private people can raise money that would go directly to research like your lab? Or does it have to come through grants?

I'm really sorry. One of my closest friends just went through that at 18 weeks and it's been so hard. I'm nearly 20 weeks now and terrified that's going to happen (I have a history of repetitive miscarriages due to a genetic problem).

Worse...no cats, only cat hair. Don't worry though, I recently saw a book of crafts you can make using cat hair.

We like to use the old-fashioned and distinctly Southern Baptist sounding "helpmeet" at our house. It gives both of us the goosebumps (the bad kind) so we like to spring it on each other out of nowhere. It keeps the passion in our relationship alive.

That's awful. I'm pretty sure cheating was involved with both the people I mentioned too, but nothing as drastic. I think they were just more estranged, but my memory is a little fuzzy.

It seems unlikely that you've been happily married for 25 years, given that your refusal to take his name means that you put yourself above the relationship, you challenge his masculinity on a daily basis, you probably have a terrible sex life, and you're still hanging onto your single life.* Given that, I'm not sure…

My aunt kept her ex-husband's name when she divorced...20 years later, she got remarried to a man with the same last name. She teases him that she actually kept her first husband's name, because she never filed any name change paperwork.

I know a couple who both had issues with their fathers and made their own last name. It was ten years ago and I had never heard of anything like it. I remember being shocked!

That's sweet and made me tear up a little.

You should maybe just auction that thing off. It doesn't sound like you are getting $800 per month enjoyment out of it. Owning a boat is one of my nightmares, but I like having friends with boats.

They can scrap, but they should follow the rules for fighting like girls: wrists should be limp at all times; eyes should be closed and head should be turned while hands are blindly swatting at anything in reach; hair pulling is acceptable. /s

Me too. Except that I couldn't get an IUD because my cervix wasn't big enough to accommodate it. That probably wouldn't have been a problem with a vaginal birth.

I think you mean Kate Middleton.

I don't know. My pregnant ass would probably look pretty hot in some of the ones with floating fish in them at my law office!

I'm not saying I never owned a pair (Jr. Prom!), just in retrospect they were maybe not the best look.

May I suggest "a whiter shade of pale"?

I've gotten two pairs of Tory Burch flats for my birthdays and they are by far the most expensive shoes I've ever owned (they are just over $100 I think). I don't mind spending money on purses, briefcases, or wallets because I use the mess out of them, but shoes just get scuffed and fall out of style way too fast to…

He should have billed himself as a ghost whisperer!
