Ha. I'm an older Jennifer. It was always funny, cause there were so many Jennifers & I have a very difficult, for English speakers, last name and they always had to try to say it.

Yeah I thought it was so misguided when H & the Dems kept going on with, "How can we be losing to this guy (Trump)" when I thought T was the only Repub that she could lose to. Any of the other R candidates would not have been able beat H on the issues, but this was not a normal election and the Ds never seemed to be…

Do you live NYCarea? I'd meet you for late afternoon-evening alcohol or pasta-related event if you want to chat.

I agree with everyone else, you don't have anything to apologize for. It may even be you took her rejection a little too personally. You may have just surprised her & she responded awkwardly. We woman sometimes get awkward & confused too. I think you should be proud of yourself, you took a chance & now she knows that…

I always thought it was See My Hell. But I guess that just shows my state of mind.

I was thinking the same thing.

Everybody here is making me feel old. I read them in my 30's…. mostly as they came out.

Yeah, I have this issue. I've moved often, take public transport & travel a lot, so the last few years, I have almost completely stopped buying paper books & been selling the ones I have. Almost all my new reading (and some favorites that I have re-bought) are on my Nook app on my phone. At this point I don't miss my…

Not to mention, how nice it is to see some damn diversity. I really do want to hear from all kinds of peoples perspectives!!!

That really sucks, for so many reasons.

Yeah it's pretty surreal working there too. Surreal and completely monotonous - a weird combination.

Good points. I was just re-watching the Bilquis episode of American Gods, and it reminded me, that to me, my job has that element of adoration that had been part of temple worship in the past, before it was pushed aside by patriarchal monotheism. It's an important part of my way of approaching my job. And in a good…

I've been a stripper for many years & you have the wrong idea of what a strip club is. You are thinking of a brothel/escort. Not trying to be rude, but this confusion is something I see mostly in younger men & foreigners. A strip club is a social event really. Most men are there to establish a connection, for the…

I agree with PET, I travel with my mom on these month long trips overseas & I have to make all the decisions, where we're going, staying, eating. And overall, I don't mind. But once in a while I wish she would make the choice (she always says she's less picky than me & she's happy with the places I choose) to take…

I am myself & spend almost all my time alone. It's very depressing. I am fairly attractive & have a pleasant demeanor, so I have had to conclude that I am just not that likable.

It was a minor detail, but the way he kept jerking the phone away from a desperate Bilquis was so perfectly played. What a little turd!!

Lol. I saw Glass Spider too…. Luckily I caught him again on the Sound & Vision which was much better. But, oh, to have been at a Ziggy show. The film of that concert changed my life…

Saw R.E.M. multiple shows in 86, 87, 89 & 04! The 04 MSG show was the day Bush2 got re-elected, I'll never forget that one. Or any of them really! The 89 Green shows were the weakest. And i was heartbroken that they didn't tour for final album cause I was traveling during the Accelerate shows.

I had a similar exchange with my right wing brother about Obama's refreshing lack of scandals. And got the same lolololol - and when i asked him to enlighten me about all the scandals- no response.

I'm not sure of it's the worst movie I've ever seen, but it is the only one I walked out on. Drop Dead Fred. Walked right into the next screen showing Thelma & Louise. Good decision.
