Seems nearly impossible to lose a medical license, let alone bring criminal charges. This guy even got acquitted, which boggles the mind...

My dad took me to see JAWS in a drive-in when I was about 7 - I’m 50 now and have never gotten over it!

Sleestaks from the original “Land of the Lost.” *shudder*

Happy to say that I would not have even remotely ventured into that territory! But even my relatively benign stupidity would have looked even worse if paraded across the national stage.

I was a fan of Bill (voted for him twice!) until the Lewinsky situation. I’ve never forgiven him for it because it was just so tacky and stupid. I’ve never bought the infantilization of Monica - she was an adult, but Jesus, he’s the leader of the free world who was also living his childhood dream of becoming the…

And...he just got married!!!! I was irrationally happy for him when I read this. Irrational because it’s not like I know him personally or anything...

Immediately Zillowed his childhood home and it was much more modest than I had expected...

I knew someone was eavesdropping! I often say my entire relationship with my husband is based on discussions of toilet habits.

My daughter is 10, and she cannot get enough of “The Andy Griffith Show.” That program absolutely stands the test of time and is as touching and hilarious today as it was in the early 1960s. If you have any doubts, just check out “The Pickle Story” from Season 2 or “Opie the Birdman” from Season 4. Be sure to have…

“It is discrimination against white teachers who are making great sacrifices to be there.”

My heart is broken! Ellie has been my favorite writer on this site since her adorable piece on the Pittsburgh Aviary sloth. I still go back and read that piece when I’m feeling low, BTW.

What a heartbreaking profile. Between the show-biz childhood and the alcoholic mom, no wonder this is what she was like at 25. I would like to think that life has gotten better for her and her self-esteem.

This looks like the kind of ring people end up with when the groom proposes with his late grandma’s diamond, but the bride has her heart set on wearing HER late grandma’s diamond.

I plan to show a troubled young man that life is worth living by fucking him to Cat Stevens songs, and then off myself at 80, a la “Harold and Maude.”

I’m turning 50 next week, and my motto for the rest of my life is “Fuck that noise.” From now on, I call the shots. I’m not intimidated anymore, and I’m also mad as hell and not going to do anything I don’t want to do. Work late? Only if I want to. Put up with a shitty boss? Hell no. I’m not worried that quitting…

I wept through the whole thing, and my 10 year old laughed at me. “It’s about a bun!” she chided me. No it’s not, I thought, and if she has children some day, she will understand.

Oh good, another baby named Jayden.

Best admissions advice I ever heard was given to my dad’s best friend at a college counseling seminar for parents in Greenwich, CT.

It doesn’t seem like it would be any good, but I promise it will blow your mind!

Donna Reed. Rhymes with “Loves to mow and weed.” One of the things Iove best about that show is the complete lack of false rhymes. Also, a great reference to a fairly forgotten 50's sitcom, when the more obvious reference would be to June Cleaver (though that’s harder to rhyme with!)
