When Did We Stop Being Allowed To Say What We Want To Say, Regardless Of Whether It Is Nice Or Not?

Alone. He made some mean, [...]

Commercials: Unfriendly to the Unmarried?

My boyfriend brought home a Men’s Health magazine the other day. Now as much as I don’t need to know the latest neck exercise or 109 ways to do a pull up…I still find reading through men’s magazines to be an interesting perspective into the ‘other’ world.  In fact sometimes I want to know why [...]

The iPad …Any Leaks?

Now I understand that the people working for Apple have one too many ‘MBA’ graduates working on their side and with all that ‘advanced’ old-man thinking one might wonder….was it really necessary to title their new invention the ‘iPAD’?

The Art of NOT Shaving

A Young Urbanite’s Wish List

In thinking of Holiday gifts this year, I understand, that in regards to the Naughty or Nice list, I probably should be receiving more than my fair share of coal (Has coal gone up a few cents a barrel? Comparable with gold yet? No? Damnit.). I have been whiny, needy, moody…I complain more than I praise [...]

Oh, Just Out Running Errands

  This is J Lo. Jennifer Lopez for the older crowd here. She is out, running errands.

Oh, right…sweatpants! For the love of all that is holy, where the hell [...]
