I need to know just how long that slumber party scene on the bed was... it was edited in such a way that Ramona started with no eye makeup whatsoever, then somehow morphed into wearing smeared eye makeup. So either things were shown out of order and at some point she got up and took off the messy face, or she started…

Never watched the show, and I agree that we don’t know the whole story, and I don’t disagree that at a certain age kids should be able to decide whether to see one parent or the other... but it’s not good parenting to put your kids out there speaking their adolescent truths to the world (and posterity). Give the…

There’s a kiss, and there’s making out for an hour or more, which is apparently what was happening (according to Bethenny’s sources). I mean, neither is appropriate when you’re engaged, but there’s a big difference between a 5 second slip followed by horror and remorse and making out in full view of the other patrons…

We’d be treated to multiple episodes of Ramona and Sonja saying the threesome lasted an hour and LuAnn insisting that it only lasted 8 minutes.

The pickup truck was a big feature in his election campaign for Senate. A really, really big thing. Not a slam at people who drive trucks, just a reference to Massachusetts political history.

You need to go to a Wahlburger’s restaurant. Government cheese is on the menu. You can even ask for extra government cheese on your burger.

It doesn’t do anybody any good to freak out, which is why the CDC recommends against it. They also are advocating 6 mos of abstinence or barrier birth control for anybody who’s been infected. The catch, of course, is that people aren’t necessarily going to know they are infected and know to do that. It will be…

I hope at the very least he had to have his DNA in some registry forever. So that when he rapes the next woman but manages to get away before she wakes up, he can be held accountable.

Oh, Happy Birthday to me (9/25)... MINING!

Not Catholic. Episcopal.

Stewart Copeland (from The Police) has a cool version of the silent movie Ben Hur which plays here and there with Symphony orchestras providing his musical score live as the film unfolds before you. Apparently the 1925 version literally contains a cast of thousands and is quite impressive to see in its restored state…

Ooo, flashbacks to Celebrity Apprentice, where this skincare “line” was an actual challenge. The teams had to create an ad campaign, if I recall correctly... and one team spelled her name wrong!

Did she not grow up in this country? Because even as a child in the early 70s, that term was cringe-worthy, and she’s younger than I am.

Scott Baio and Kirstie Alley both need the work.

I’m guessing the women who think sexism is a thing of the past are married to modern, enlightened men who take their daughter to a purity ball on Friday night AND her soccer game on Saturday morning.

I’m fine, thank you. Endometriosis, but I’m one of the phenomenally lucky few that never had any discomfort associated with it — just copious output. They went in laparoscopically for something else and saw it everywhere, cleaned me up, and mostly solved the issue. I just can’t comprehend how Bethenny’s…

You know, I’ve felt for Bethenny and her ladybits issues, having had some myself. The thought of walking around in my scanties on national television when dealing with intermittently opening floodgates boggles my mind. There’s no tampon powerful enough.

Updo! Gstaad!

Okay, a producer gave them to a friend, who gave them to Bethenny.

She’s a pretty 14 year old, seems suited to a teen publication cover. No need to make her out to be any more (or less) than that. Not sure what her parents are thinking — hopefully it’s a one-off under Mom’s close supervision and they’ll let her grow up before exposing her further to the brutality of the modeling…
