@BAngieB: Heh. I love how you've drawn this circle around LL that we're all afraid to cross.

@Jessica Hussein Lovejoy: Amen! This just warmed up leftovers.

@Lymed: What really, really broke my heart in that movie was when he started working at the counter in the supermarket, the performer came out and actually made him good at that job! But it the end he couldn't let the past go. Not that Estelle had that problem. She was genuinely ill and lacked the money that could…

@TakeADeepBreath: Well, given how he was raised, a lot of their behavior is self-evident. It didn't start with his brother's death.

Gonna show my age here: it reminds me of what Details was before it became a men's (and subsequently gay men's) magazine.

Laws need to change for police to do more, because until that time they're being asked to put as much effort into a crime that's actually been committed as one that might be. That's not really a choice to an overworked cop. The law needs to be changed so that this behavior in itself is a crime worthy of arrest and…

@lalaland13: Can you imagine Bush named a pet after an author, much less a poet?

His next book is going to be advice to girls on how to dress.

@Raspberry Swirl: Now with more yruppls!: As you can see I have no such problems.

Um, yeah. He's really going to date a lot girls. The girls he'll meet in Drama Club and when he's a Theater major in college.

Whoa. I refreshed the page and got a serious headline revision.

@PilgrimSoul: Oh, I meant for it to be simplistic to show why it seems so often to be on the side of the criminal. Because according to the system, they technically aren't criminals. They're "the accused."

...and not to be dismissive of anyone's pain, but the reason our justice system is the way it is, is that every person is innocent until proven guilty. The "burden of proof" is literally that: a burden. The way the law sees it the accused is an innocent man that you, cop or victim, are trying to take down and so is…

@SmallbutMighty: @Mkp-braaaains-NYC: I'm not surprised. Money talks and everything else walks.

@Bunson.: That's one of their rules (no interracial or inter-faith dating) and their biggest flaw. You're not going to get someone who's interesting because they're different. Like those SNL satires, they're trying to get you an opposite sex version of yourself.

Say what you want about Sex & The City but it actually had two of the four women in the group reveal to have had abortions, including the main character, Carrie (though I still say they wussed out about Miranda not getting one).

"Pimp My Vadge" was one of the first things that ever made me fall in love with Jezebel.

I have something I like to rock called "Panda Style"...which is to say like a panda's mother, mine hopes in vain for a successful coupling and grandchildren.
