I have been having arguments with my friend’s sixteen year old daughter about this for weeks. She has bought this BS hook, line, and sinker and thinks she needs this special wash for when she is on her period. No matter what I say to try to convince her that the only “person” that thinks her vagina needs special soap…

And I think most people probably didn’t click on the story, because they don’t know who she is, but honestly, it is the most interesting story on DB today!

If there was blood coming out of her eyes it was because they were bleeding having to look at his anus face.

Off the main topic, but if you are a Parker Posey fan, she was on WTF with Marc Maron about a month and a half ago and it was a great interview. She’s awesome.

The “I Don’t Like Mondays” girl is American. That shooting occurred in a San Diego school in 1979.

I read this book in the early 80’s while living in Ohio near an Amish settlement. I worked at the local KMart which still sold menstrual belts (aka sanitary belts) because the Amish women, who came in en masse once a week, would buy them.

I hate seeing a post from, say Turner Classic Movies, at the top of my Pages feed this morning, that they posted yesterday, letting me know they aired North By Northwest last fucking night! Sure would have liked to have seen that post yesterday, it would…

“I am a good person, I like this good show, and last time I checked, good plus good does not equal guilty,”

Guy Oseary is also Madonna’s long time manager and just recently became U2’s manager.

You know she was in Sid & Nancy? Not as Nancy, that role was played by Chloe Webb, but she was one of the minor hanger-on characters. Maybe even her first movie role?

What are “nude courts”?

Ah but yesterday was beautiful! This is actually my 5th time here, I’m a bit obssessed. Spent the morning at Park Frankendel for the Pure Markt and now, because of the rain, I’m heading to the Rijksmuseum to see those doll houses I’ve been reading about. Then maybe the library...

Well, we may have passed each other on the sidewalk, but certainly not in the street! ;)

...wearing high heels, with a couple of kids in a bucket in front of the bike, and a dog on a leash running alongside? God, I love this town!!

Hi, current Amsterdam tourist here! I was walking around the 9 Streets today silently cursing stupid tourists left and right!
