Am I the only one who finds it particularly chilling that they were arrested before they could testify?  Was that timing coincidental?  It doesn’t seem that likely to me.

I work for a publicly traded multinational company. The head of HR routinely lowers our ratings because “if everyone was that good, the division would have made its numbers.” No, the numbers are unrealistic, and final performance would have been much worse if we weren’t all that good.,

I love Goddess bras.

There’s also a red-footed variety...

I have a friend who is a professional skater and he says that Tonya Harding is the best skater that he’s ever seen, and that she was always better in practice than at performance. He also blamed her for the laces thing and says that sabotage of equipment is very common at competitions. He says that rule one is never…

I’m really curious how the bride is supposed to know what style suits her BEFORE trying anything on. Who has experience in this area? It’s not like shopping for jeans.

Join a dating service. Seriously. Everyone I know that got married in the last 15 years (including a couple in their fifties) all met using a dating service. If you’re not happy being single, it isn’t too late for you. I know three women who all married for the first time in their fifties.

When I was about 35, a guy at work asked me about the then recently-published study about how hard it supposedly was for women over 35 to find partners and asked me if I was lowering my standards. (This sounds worse than it was - it was smack talk, which we engaged in frequently at that office). I told him the truth -…

I am not leftover. I never put myself on the table.

I was always told to cheat to lose any game I played against a guy, including my brothers and my dad. My mom taught me this because she had learned that the only way to play a game with males was to make sure that they won. Since she loved playing games, this was her strategy.

Hollywood is much worse because the power differential will always be greatest there. Harvey Weinstein could, and did, blackball people who annoyed him so that they could never work in the industry at all. It’s very hard to see that happening in other industries.

I can’t give you enough stars. I have nevet understood why this film is so beloved

Man, I saw a whole bunch of more attractive handbags when I was in KMart this weekend, and they were made out of plastic. Not one of these is as attractive as the ugliest Mary Frances bag.

I disagree that the new hair and makeup are an improvement. I think the earlier look is much more professional. The hair for the second look is more for a special occasion than work, and the makeup is terrible. I don’t mind the heavier eye makeup, but the stuff on her skin looks glopped on with a trowel, not…

We keep our cats indoors just in case. We live in town, but I see coyotes whenever I walk the dog in the evenings.

My neighbor has lost two of her cats from being hit by cars.

Wisconsin was the first state that granted women the right to vote.

Well, all those states in the U.S. are passing laws that you can only use the restroom that corresponds to the one on your birth certificate.

You’re wrong. Everyone I know who hasn’t bailed on the show watches for Daniel Dae Kim. I like Grace Park but hate the subplot they’ve saddled her character with.

See, to my mind the last paragraph is the only reason that this was an assault. They weren’t two people in a private situation. They are two people who were plied with alcohol and encouraged to engage in sexual activity by sober employees of a for-profit company hoping to gain greater profit.
