Jane Mayer has been kicking ass long before anyone heard the name “Ronan Farrow.” ALL the respect for Mr. Farrow, but Mayer reigns SUPREME.

Argh, the “Maya-Maya’s” just made me cry at my desk.

She is perfection.

With a good glue gun, they also can be fashioned into excellent Halloween costumes. I present, my two “Dead Bride” daughters, circa 2002.

This is the perfect description of her smile.

Spoken like an expert in such.

But who else could rock that pink-green turban with ostrich feathers, enormous bling earrings, AND a zebra belt?

This makes me love Janet even more than ever.

Yeah, I was ready to get all pissy over the “as a father of daughters” business, but I’m gonna give him this one. Carry on, sir.

I ran through a sliding glass door when I was 8 years old. Since it was before the advent of safety glass, the entire pane broke into hellish shards and all the adults who were outside having cocktails on the patio were quickly pulling shrapnel from their hair, drinks, etc.

I can’t imagine why this collection of writers couldn’t come up with a better story arc for her character - there’s a hefty 6.25% of women at the table.

There’s a wonderful documentary worth watching - “The September Issue.”

I’ve made this a couple of times but didn’t have any bouillon cubes on hand (of any variety)  so I just substituted chicken broth for the water. This is a miraculously easy meal, as long as you can putter around the house for 4 hours - which is my Saturday specialty.

Agreed - we took our first baby on the subway at under 8 weeks - life had to go on. Two years later, when second baby was about 3 months, we all spent a month in Jamaica - breastfeeding on the beach under a palm tree was better than sitting on a couch in my NYC apartment. My girls are travelling professionals now…

Your first sentence just made me LOL. It’s like retail shade.
