Christina Hendricks wins. Christina Hendricks always wins.

I think this is why I have pretty much given up on cinema and tend to watch more television. I'm in my late 40s and find myself completely bored by yet another story told by men, to men, about how awesome or awful men are. It all becomes much a muchness after a while. At least on television you get some female…

Hmmm, must make Rush Limbaugh happy to finally have a real life "femi-nazi" to point to.

I live in Queens. I was chatting with my doctor about which subway line I take and when I told her she said, "ah, in the medical community, we call that line the Tuberculator." Because we have a high rate of undocumented residents who may not seek out or have access to medical care, combined with the presence of two…

YES! Even if you want your own children to die, allowing them to become vectors when there is an easy prevention is a criminal act. Go live on a desert island somewhere, not down the street from me, riding my subway line jackass.

I think a big part of the problem is that because of the success of vaccination programs, most people in developed countries today have never seen what these diseases can do. I am old enough to have had a teacher whose arm was crippled by polio and an uncle who died as an infant in the hospital after contracting…

I love iced coffee any time of the year, so: ice-brew in French press overnight in refrigerator, no burn, no bitterness. Transfer to pitcher, coffee for two to three days. Yumm.

Did you stick around for the slow loris videos? They don't even look real!

Going to? Darlin' that boat sailed about 10,000,000 years ago. We are here as guests, at their pleasure.

Are One Million Moms really a marketing device? Seems like every time they call a boycott, sales of said boycotted items go up.

Poor Werner Herzog, trying to fill the Kinski shaped hole in his heart with bears. Chickens just won't do.

Starbucks will still charge four dollars for it.

aliens.

That was my issue with this case. A woman accused him of a crime and it is up to law enforcement to see if there is evidence that the crime took place. They could not do so and he was neither arrested, nor charged with a crime. The publicity around the mere accusation sat really poorly with me. Once an arrest had…

Which is weird because seen way off in the distance, mountains can appear to be blue.

I didn't think it was possible to snort soup out of your nose, but no, it is entirely possible.

I propose we all just call each other "comrade" and call it a day.

I find it annoying to be called "mami" by strangers and it particularly creeps me out when it is used in a sexualized way, but then I'll hear parents calling their small children mami or papi and it kind of cracks me up.
