OK, whatever. In this era of picky snap judgements, it seemed pretty tame, although there did seem to be a few that veered perhaps [...]
What Planet Are Gays From?
Like most couples, our biggest roadblock is ‘the c word’ … communication.
Take for instance, the great stained vs. dirty fight of 2002.
I’m more specific when it comes to words, insisting that our forefathers didn’t invent entire new words to mean the same thing. Each word is there because it means something else.
Van is more of [...]
Worst Dressed Stars Get Paddled on Red Carpet
Could you imagine? Joan Rivers would be all over this!

Meet the Marriage Judges
Just what makes an expert worthy of giving advice?
That very question pops to mind immediately upon viewing TV’s ‘The Marriage Ref’, a ‘reality’ show where couples videophone in their arguments and a panel of celebrity judges decides who’s in the right.
I know, since when is Hollywood the best judge of successful marriage, right?

OK, Guess We’ll Have to Get This Bucket List Over With
Have you ever met a cranky complainer who, when faced with any potential experience, automatically defaults to doom and gloom scenarios quicker than Cassandra?

Q: How exactly do you defend popular video games that simulate violence toward women?

Texas to Include Teabonics in School Textbooks
I’m sure it’s only a matter of time.
Horribly misspelled messages of hate are sadly a common part of this bilingual country.
If “ecetions” can be made for little brown wetback children to be schooled in a “lanaguage” other than the “offical” language, then why can’t “are” God fearing “daugters” and sons be taught ‘Teabonics’?
