The show jumped the shark when Jim and Pam got married, but short of Ricky Gervais stepping in, Will Ferrell is the only one that can save The Office with Steve Carell leaving.

When I read it, I thought it was going to be traumatic haircutting experiences from childhood. My mother never could cut in a straight line.

THIS.

I was going to say: Because there is no such thing as "deserving poor."

Stealing Kate's style? Really? Better tell anybody that shops at NY&Co or Target. I have each of those items in my closet, too. My stuff may not be from big labels, but I'm pretty sure most women have jeans, a black cardigan and/or jacket, a camel colored coat, and a white tshirt.

It would be awesome because they wouldn't hear you coming. Let's go with your idea.

Yes, Lee Thomas is the guy in question, and he does have vitiligo. He only wears the makeup when he's on the news. He's done a great one-man show and speaks openly about living with vitiligo. He says without makeup, he thinks he looks like a superhero, which I think is awesome. [www.leethomas.com]

Rather than make maxi-pads that are pretty looking, how about maxi-pads that reveal secret messages once used? Like, "Don't worry! I PROMISE you won't bleed forever!" or tips on how to get reluctant guys into period sex.

On the one hand, I see a wonderfully matched couple on the adventure of a lifetime.

Agreed. I hate to be cynical about it, but her parents will probably take issue with it. I hope not, but it would be the same tired poor parenting that we often see in cases like this. "Not my baby!" "That girl started it!" Yada, yada, barf.

Gross.

I'm still just trying to figure out what "smanging" is exactly. From what I can tell from a good, ol'-fashioned Google search, I want no part of it. Apparently, non-smanging is my relationship tendency.

I second that emotion.

But what about the illiterate strip club patrons??? How will they know where the strip clubs are without pictures of boobies??

Meh. It's not so bad. And it's all part of finding our best ways of communication. We'll have only been married for two years this year, and it's always a work in progress! How can you find the best ways to communicate when you don't have a worst to compare it to? But thanks!

Ghad, my husband does that to me sometimes (well, not exactly - but the sad face is there), and boy, let me tell you, guilt is no way to get somebody hot.

Ditto.

And it just so happens to be available on a website called ThinkGeek! [www.thinkgeek.com]

I zinc that's brilliant!
