@badmutha: It wasn't over a few months, but a few hours according to the source article.

Fun fact of the day: The first woman to climb Pikes Peak was Amelia Earhart's mother. True.

The way the doctors talk to you when you are pregnant, you start to feel like you are going to kill the baby if you gain more than 20 pounds. Every time you go in, the nurse weighs you, puts it on the little graph, tells you to stop gaining so much weight, looks at you like you are the most pathetic thing she has…

@sheistolerable: That is interesting. I wonder if it is a power in numbers kind of thing. I think when you feel like you are on a team and are working for a greater good, it doesn't feel so selfish, while negotiating for yourself can be portrayed as selfish and egotistical.

I think the piece that people are missing is that although twitter is in theory a personal form of communication, for Penelope Trunk it isn't. She has well over 15,000 people following her tweets, and she uses it to build her business persona.

@Sorcha: That is the quote that is killing me. I am tired of people saying she doesn't want this to continue as if it were because she ENJOYED and CONSENTED to the rape. That is what everyone is implying. And it is driving me crazy!

I just went through and promoted a couple comments that were pro-Conan. I would like to make sure that Conan knows that I would gladly do him.

@JennaW: Yeah, I agree. I really think he didn't know what he was getting into. Several studios turned it down because they thought it wouldn't sell. Why should he think it would be huge when they didn't?

I'm not fat, just optimistically-boned.

@smallc: For some reason, the simple way you phrased that has me laughing out loud. Jumpsuits are funny.

@morninggloria: I think so. There is no way they would all do it if they could wear heels.

@whothewhatnow: Would.you.like.to.play.a.game?

@AEchinoderm: I miss the Commodore 64. We had one for the whole elementary school (which was a luxury, we knew) with a cassette drive so we could play the Pac Man knock off, Gobbler. Oh, the days...

@andBegorrah: Does that one have negative connotations? Who knew?

@bluebears: Um, I've been meaning to tell you something...

@badmutha: The other thing is that the title may be something some girls can handle because they have popularity or a certain kind of confidence, but the same word can be turned into a weapon against girls who don't have those strong social skills and confidence. I'm with you both. Is that a mom thing?

@MizJenkins: When I was in high school, a friend of mine asked a more popular boy out. The popular girls decided to teach her a lesson by scrawling "slut" on her locker every day and in every bathroom. They also recruited the boys to whisper the word "slut" every time they passed her in the hall. Then the boys…

@sweetnsassy2: Who is this? My brain keeps almost figuring it out and then I lose it.

@Scout: Have you ever tried actually playing yourself while acting? It is harder than it would seem, and even Courtney Love did a good job, imo.

@Flackette Goes Retro: Good point. From a pure evolution standpoint, older men should be less likely to want a younger woman because they are past their prime for baby making.
