OMG I have a necklace that looks almost exactly like this. I’m usually trying to figure out where to buy stuff I see on these pages rather than seeing something that I already own (or close to it).

My dad was required to tell a funny and inappropriate joke as he walked with me and my sisters when we all got married. He accomplished this task every time - including twice for me. I giggled both times, and that was just enough to get past the tears.

Plus, my normally pretty capable husband was unable to figure out…

As I sit here in one of the most gerrymandered states in the country - which includes a district that is 20 yards wide at one point - that must be awesome.

I watch with the lights off - that helps with the dark scenes. And I have the closed captioning on, which can also help me understand what’s happening if I can’t see it clearly.

I am so signing up my mom. She’s really a Republican, but she’s such a political idiot she changed her party affiliation to Democrat because “that John Edwards is so handsome”. If Hillary actually called her, her head would explode. And my libertarian dad would have something to gleefully bitch about at family…

I was born in the late 60s, and it seems half the girls I knew had the middle name “Lynn”, and the other half had the middle name “Marie”.

When it stops being a misdemeanor?

The cops took a lot of heat right after the women escaped, especially after the horrendous case of Anthony Sowell. But the Cleveland Plain Dealer looked at police records and found cops came to the neighborhood a lot but the conclusion was that there wasn’t a whole lot they could have done. Even though there were…

This guy has written about his tragic, world-shaking divorce before. He not only sounds like a tool, but a self-obsessed tool who's defining himself completely by his failed marriage - and is trying to normalize his experience by expanding it to the rest of the world. I don't mean to be heartless, but maybe he should…

I follow this story as a reporter here in Ohio, and one of the most extraordinary things happened during this debate. Democratic state Rep. Teresa Fedor revealed to her colleagues on the floor during the debate that she'd been raped and had an abortion when she was younger. She said later there were only two people…

This is EXACTLY what this is, and one of the sponsors admitted it on the House floor during the debate.

I was married 15 years ago in a fairly low-budget, low maintenance kind of way. I'd been married to an awful, abusive asshole before, and it ended horribly. When I realized I was going to have a second chance not only at marriage but also at a wedding, I promised myself I'd really enjoy the party. And damn, I sure…

"You are not going ANYWHERE, Ride To The Airport."

Me too! My now-best friend and I were in the same program in college, but didn't know each other. We found ourselves walking across campus together and started chatting, and soon realized we had something in common beyond our career ambitions. We then decided to go visit the guy we had just found out was our mutual…

This is a tiny point - but there are 193 STATE REPRESENTATIVES in New Hampshire? For a state with just over a million people? I'm a reporter in Ohio, where we have 11 million people and 132 state lawmakers in both the House AND the Senate. That's a LOT of lawmakers.

Here's a thought - women often struggle with being taken seriously during pregnancy and as mothers, as the original article says. Perhaps this woman didn't ask for help because she genuinely thought she could handle the project and the pregnancy (a lot of first-time moms think it'll be no big deal, which HAHAHAHAHA).…

We actually have a legislator who IS a doctor in Ohio. I'm a reporter here, and I vividly remember him saying at one point of the clearly unconstitutional "heartbeat bill": "Whether this bill when it's a law it will be struck down or not, I could care less."

Yep! Ohio was on that nearly three years ago!
