Maybe me (and a lot of folks) on a Sunday, but I'm not getting why you are being taken to task or why I am either. Commenters seem a bit twitchy today. Think I'll just lay low.

Maybe you haven’t been keeping up with Jez’s latest features on Amy and the comments that have followed. They have not very ‘balanced’, to say the least. I made a fairly general observation, and your reply seems disproportionately aggressive. You might want to wait until a commenter actually insults Amy outright…

It's certainly the only way I could have survived back then:/ We are renting a very old house, and I hope to someday find a loose board somewhere concealing a small fortune in something.

I remember when Amy was Jezebel's darling. Seems like we are being encouraged to pillory her now.

;D

I thought that was an acknowledged fact :/

After one of my great aunts passed, my mother showed me a beautifully styled little glass she carried around with her on trips from home. So lovely -all cut and sparkly. My mom said "she must have kept sewing pins in here or something." Me: "Mom, it's a SHOT GLASS." Mom: "Ooooooh...."

Mmmmm OTC codeine. How I loved ye. We kids didn't even know what we were getting then. But it was good.

Thank you for your story. I wish Jez would do more pieces like this.

Wow. I thought women, like Jolie, had artificial implants placed. I mean, how could they have 'harvested' enough fat tissue from her body to have created such a prominent bosom? And that wasn't meant to be snark. My boobs are so tiny I tell myself I wouldn't miss them, but after reading a few comments here, I'm…

I have never seen this reality show (or any others except the British Nanny one). Commenters are piling onto her like mad, but something tells me that the producer of this program found an opportunity for televising and perhaps exacerbating a family crisis that centers on a woman who was probably 'damaged' long before…

Could never stand this lady. Could never stand this program. There is annoying and then there is incredibly obnoxious. The latter.

“WUT" What? I watched that awful hour and something of self adoration and saw this scene. Re-watch: all of it maybe.

Thank you for your reply. I have checked our local meeting schedules and have seen nothing for women only. I live in a very Republican and straight-up "backwards" town. Things never change here and they never will. There are outpatient psych groups that have their own addiction sections, but I want nothing to do with…

I need to believe that somehow we could get along without it. But dreaming is wonderful. I have had many "weightless" dreams. Try it , you'll like it. By the way, I stole that phrase from an old poet buddy who probably published it somewhere.

I have heard of this, but despite my "city's" size we have nothing like this. And people in this town drink ALOT. They just don' tell their doctors (it's very political town/state capitol.....everyone works for the gov. and they hate their lives and each other). I have seen links to SMART on the internet. If they have…

Haha. No snark taken. TV just wasn't as ubiquitous when I was growing up. And there wasn't much to watch, especially for anyone under 16. I was a reader and a movie lover. It just never caught on with me. And, seriously, I mean no snark when I say "I just had other things to do" (you know, like worry and stuff:)

You honor me with that . Thank you. It came from a place like this (which I'm still trying to figure out).

Haha. The one time I did Tequila ('Gritas and shots), I rode my bicycle straight into the rear of a parked car. And yet..... so good, so good. Sigh.

Oh darl'in. You talking to a gal who lost her taste buds a couple years ago. Really it happens. I grew up on a farm. Bland, bland and extra helpings of bland. It does something to your DNA, I think. Yes it's weird. Any kind of spice tortures me. But I will live and die by the great TOMATO. * I ate garlic once and…
