I ask every year whilst watching Westminster- where do the lady handlers get those god-awful clothes? I know they gotta sparkle and they gotta have pockets for treats. But omg they are bad.

I know a woman who, on a vacation to Colorado several years ago, took a cab to the JonBenet Ramsey house in order to take pictures. Ewwwww

Oooh, I visited Skye a couple of years ago so yeah!

Yesterday I was hate-listening to Fox News radio on my way home from work (it’s like biting down on a bad tooth) and at that time of day there is this guy , Charlie Butts, who’s apparently their anti-abortion commentator. So Charlie’s anti-choice report yesterday was about this child (who is adorable, don’t get me…

I’m a nice person. I don’t hate people. This baboon is truly the first time in my life I have ever really, truly hated someone. It’s not a good feeling.

Prof. Gothick had a family member who won $9 million in a state lottery one time. It went for 2 houses, 9 motorcycles, a whole lot of crack, and a Hummer, which she drove off into a lake while high and then wandered home, having forgotten what she did with the Hummer. One year later she was broke all over again.

I remember my sainted granny using one when I was a kid. Very old-fashioned, probably made in the 1940s, with a separate valve on top that would rattle and blow steam. Weighed about 20 pounds. She told me about people she knew that had been killed by exploding pressure cookers. I was terrified of the damn thing then…

I’m neither black nor a kid, but I can’t wait to see it! Those badass women warriors, wow!

Just how in the blue hell do you “refuse to speak to investigators” in a murder investigation?

Thank you for your response and your kind words. As I say, it was long ago - 1979 - perhaps the terminology has changed? At any rate, until the eclampsia came on, there was no indication that the baby was in any trouble. I’m glad to hear there are so many advances in diagnostics nowadays, maybe saving women from what…

Sort of OT but I want to ask you this: In 1979, my second baby was born with an enormous spongioblastoma in his brain. He lived for 3 days and it wasn’t until the autopsy that it was found. Can this condition be diagnosed during the pregnancy nowadays? I had pre-eclampsia to boot and he was delivered at 32 weeks…

I rejoice to hear this! And- does anyone recall a TV miniseries back in the 80s about Peter the Great? Would love to see it again, but can’t find it (or any other made-for-TV movies from back then) on Youtube or anywhere. There was one about Marco Polo that was divine!

I get my shot every October, without fail. Last year I got flu type B in March, BUT my doc said thanks to said shot, it would not be as rough. It was not so bad, AND it got me out of the dreaded annual Staff Retreat at work! Win-win!

Me too. I read that story many many years ago and have never forgotten it.

My sainted granny used to say that she did not care what people did with their little pink private parts, long as they didn’t do it in the street and frighten the horses.

Can we just say M.A. as shorthand for it?

Distraction. I’d bet the rent that something is about to drop. If Trump is trying to attract our attention, turn and look 180 degrees.

I know, right? Also I fear that everyone running for high office in this country from now on will take a page from his playbook because being a vile, vulgar, moronic asshole got him into the Oval Office, so why not?

Okay I’m trying not to body- or feature-shame here, but I’ve always wondered: what is wrong with Paris’ eye? She’s what my dad would have called gotch-eyed; they don’t seem to track together. Kate Moss has kind of got the same thing. Is it some sort of ocular condition?

he took a polygraph test, and it purportedly demonstrated that he did not know his accusers.
