Thanks! Happily, I have had foot surgery since that impassioned plea last December, so the stiff-sole requirement isn't as rigid (see what I did there?) as it was before. I'll check it out, though.

I'm curious to know what her other measurements are. 'Cause I gotta say, her hips look huge in comparison to her waist. I know, I know, she's not doing it for looks or vanity and it doesn't matter to her that her hips look huge. I'm just curious. I have always had a fairly small natural waist and big hips, hence my…

I was just telling a similar story today. This happened to me within the last couple of years. A dear friend of mine who has been deceased for three years came to me in a super-vivid dream. We were walking down the street, heading for the office where we used to work together (and where I still work). It was like she…

Oh em gee, that last little smirk = panties dropping all across America.

My now ex and I looked exactly like the illustration that accompanied this story. I remember lying on the bed in my merry widow with the garters, and ready for some sexy times, and just passing out. We were so overtired and keyed up that we didn't even sleep that deeply and felt pretty terrible in the morning. Went on…

Which is terrible. Ugh.

And I'm sure that's exactly why he ended up in prison. (I wasn't suggesting that I believed him, BTW, if that's what you took from my comment.)

This. I know of someone (he formerly worked with someone I know) who didn't even claim to have been looking at porn. He said he had been doing research. (At least, that is what he told my friend.) He was in prison for at least a couple of years.

I've occasionally peed in the shower when the toilet was clogged and I was already naked and the water's running and it's like — I GOTTA GO. I always use the commode before showering, so I would never end up in the shower and be all taken by surprise. I'm the only one who uses my shower, so maybe I should start making…

Agreed.

I had a similar thing happen to me in college. Lots of cray around campuses. I was coming home, unlocking my front door to my apartment which was at the top of the stairs, and a complete stranger started walking up the stairs saying, "I have a gun in my back pocket. Give me all your money," in a dead-serious voice. I…

My God would differ.

Sadly I do not yet have the photo which will need no explanation, but this comment totally reminds me of two political signs which sit side by side on the lawn of a house near me. One says, "Vote Pro-Life" and the other says "Vote for Religious Freedom." The cognitive dissonance is so staggering it almost meets itself…

I read it years ago when the Reagan years were waning, and although it was a chilling message then, it still seemed very distant and dystopian. Shit's getting real now. A tide needs to turn. Women need to fucking VOTE.

The Handmaid's Tale is becoming a reality.

Look like a cardboard cutout of glasses.

Could you have chosen a more unflattering photo of Chelsea? I have seen many very nice shots of her and I think this does her an injustice.

Thank you. There's a relevant fact missing and I hate that.

That. Is. Incredible. I have never heard of any such thing. Were these people from another country (planet??) where this would be considered an appropriate thing to do? I can't even.

"Homecoming" refers to alumni coming back for the football game and festivities, so it's a little mini-reunion. I guess it evolved into a big event because supposedly the former football players, cheerleaders, other campus bigwigs, etc. were coming home. Frankly I don't think that at most schools the alumni come back…
