way to alienate the the last vestiges of people actually attending Catholic Church. Good job, pops. I'm a super super lapsed catholic. My grandparents, of which there is only 1 left (and nearly 90 years old), are the last of true believers, if you will. Some of my family goes on the major holidays, but the rest of us…

I realize this is an incredibly stupid question, but where does all the money that the IOC brings in via licensing go? I know it's non-profit, but that's a blatant lie, so besides paying members (probably?) where does the rest go? Why isn't some of it being used in the form of grants to host cities? Maybe I'm just…

I couldnt wait to get my mirena. Couldn't. Wait. I had been on and off birth control since 17 - mostly do to lack of follow through- and came to the decision to get this IUD, which was obviously the best thing ever in the whole wide big great world.

I have been trying to figure out how this "smart home" technology is truly beneficial, but all I can really see is small, negligible kind-of-ok-but-eh sort of benefits that sound like they would probably take a long while to pay for themselves, and are maybe kind of cool to have if you've got the dough to burn.…

I read a few commenters mention an article awhile back on gawker media that was really great regarding cleanses and diets and bears, and since I lost my place in the comments upon switching tabs to find it - in my bookmarks, because they were twos fantastic articles that should be saved and shared - I'm posting the…

I just wanted to say, that this is the most well-written and entertaining recipe I have ever read. Kudos, Albert. I'm sure it doesn't mean much, and since I rarely comment it is doubtful you will even see this, but I thoroughly enjoyed every word.

I think - or perhaps hope is the more accurate word - that the avail.ability of HBO Go as a standalone service will prove to be very successful, and will be the catalyst needed for the market to change, finally forcing the entertainment industry to truly explore digital options..fingercrossed..

I loved the callback to that in the series finale in the slam poetry bar. Words cannot express how much I miss that show..
