Actually, she was formally charged and processed. I am a victim of her ex-husband’s, so I know the case inside and out. From what I have learned from others associated with the proceedings, Homolka goes by her new/legal name, Leanne Bourdelais, which may account for her skipping around the police check she undoubtedly…

Oooooh, I love the heel. Nice and high but also chunky enough that they must be quite comfortable. Very nice!

Her plus-size clothing is also primo. I have a really pretty shirt and one of the nicest-cut skirts ever. I paid under a hundred bucks for the outfit and I love it. I kind of love her.

I think Sean Spicer has a big ol’ boo-hoo session in his office before each press briefings. I mean, he has to know by now that he’s a laughing stock, and a poorly-versed one at that.

Seconded!

Yes! The Matthew element is way off. Richard Farnsworth made that role his own forever and then some. His sweetness, wisdom, gentle good humour and true love for Anne are the story’s collective beating heart.

It blows. It’s an atrocity. Did I mention that it blows?

What you said times 1000. Like you, I think that the original CBC series is, without the slightest doubt, amazing, but I was okay with the thought of a new kick at the can. My open mind slammed shut after the first 20 minutes or so. I actually gave myself a headache from rolling my eyes so much.

I have yet to read Lionel Shriver and, based on your words, I am missing out. I have a library run scheduled for this week and I will go in search of her. I love a good, gritty, primal read.

Ooooh, you’re a dream! My panties just dropped to the floor. Are you single?  

I think there’s one candidate, and one candidate only, for Justin Trudeau’s punch in the face: Anne Murray. You can’t get more Canadian than that.

No, I didn’t think for a second that you were yelling at me!

Fair enough. You’ve made some good points about Didion.

I love to read Didion but I find it difficult to read about her. I, too, find that she can be ingenuous when speaking about her own life and losses. But there is no arguing about her ability or thoroughness or grace with words. It’s rare that a contemporary author has created such divisive feelings in me.

I. Am. DEAD. How could he keep that inside for months?! Damn.

You know that Chancellor Merkel quoted policy and NATO restrictions chapter and verse, and he had nooooooo idea what the fuck she was talking about. Plus, she’s clearly unafraid of anyone or anything which got under his orange skin like you wouldn’t believe.

I think this very thing pretty much every time I look at him. And he doesn’t even try to plaster on a neutral or halfway-pleasant expression. He’s just revolting in every way.

You. Nailed. It. Those back of the cab things are both irritating and vaguely sad which is perfect for an ex-Bachelor that struck out four times (as we all know this “engagement” will hit the dirt by Easter).

You’re exactly right. The JH faith forbids any testing or procedures that might interfere with “God’s will” regarding the fetus.

And I loooooved James Gandolfini — still not over losing him, five years on. Goodman, Gandolfini, Dennehy. I guess I got a type!
