I once got in my car and thought about which pedal was the brake and which was the gas. Normally, I don't think about that, just put my foot in the right place. But when I thought about it, I couldn't remember which was which! It was scary!

I have both degrees and that never occurred to me! I bet if I had a PhD I would have thought of that.

I liked VR5 a lot. Good choice.

Oh how I loved that show. Sean Patrick Flannery (high school aged Indie) is still my dream boyfriend. I was once home alone writing a high school paper and I managed to lock myself out of the house while it was on. I watched it silently from outside through the window. No Hulu back then.

I think the police knew who it was. they said it was "he said, she said", so they just didn't care, which is worse than not trying.

I actually have two friends married to men of different races- a white woman married to an Indian man, and a Filipina woman married to a white man. In both cases, the kids are carbon copies of the dads. Strangers assume the white woman's dark skinned daughters are adopted and that the Filipina woman the nanny for the…

Remember the old challenge question about food tasting wrong:

I used to work on a suicide hotline, so I talked with many, many suicidal people. As an impartial outsider (which I was, since I didn't know the suicidal people personally), I can tell you it is incredibly traumatic to help someone who wants to hurt themselves. Suicidal people are scared and angry and they lash out…

Some secret service agent just got a new nickname. He's never going to hear the end of this one.

d'oh! Didn't even think of that!

Camilla al-Fayed, sister of Dodi, who died in the car crash with Princess Diana? Such strange connections.

I know! I actually said to the doctor, "You know I kiss my boyfriend, the guy you diagnosed with strep." It still didn't convince him!

In college (15 years ago), my boyfriend and I both got sick. We both thought we had strep throat, which I had had several times. We went together to a neighborhood clinic. The doctor saw him first and immediately diagnosed strep. Then I went in and he said I was having sympathy pains. Before he examined me AT ALL! I…

For some reason, I really have my fingers crossed that once he settles into Mercedes he will start doing better. I never root for him- always for Button- but I hate to see someone slip the way he has. My husband roots for him. My daughter always roots for Vettel. She always wins.

My friend is dangerously lactose intolerant and regularly ends up in the ER because people say the stuff you say. It can be life threatening to him but everyone dismisses it.

Be kind and gentle to all genders. Implicit in this whole thing is the myth that men don't have feelings that can be hurt.

When you get PPD, it is very hard to self-diagnose. When you are in the middle of depression, you can't always see it. And most people have internalized the stigma against depression and don't want to be "that mom." Plus, you don't lose your personality entirely. If you are an A-type, fix it yourself, stubborn type,…

Me, too. Also Jimmy Fallon.

Can we make a list of other shows we want back? I would also like Amazing Stories and Cleopatra 2525.

I, personally, am not able to find proof in the text of the actual interview that she just wanted attention. So I will take at face value that she had a miscarriage that was emotionally and likely physically painful. I will feel sad that another human being had to suffer that way. I will appreciate that she is…
