  • Here's a bad idea, if ever I saw one: If you can explain to me how having a loaded weapon at 30,000 feet is supposed to help anyone, I'd love to hear about it.
  • I have been blessed with a head cold, and when I say "blessed", I mean cursed. This evening it was suggested to me that this has been visited upon me because I refused to celebrate Christmas. I scoffed at the notion, o…
  • Did I ever mention the guy I went on a date with, who spent half the time telling me about his ex and how they could not be together, even though they both knew they were "soul mates"? Of course, being the inquisitive b…
  • If you find that you have too much emotional baggage left over, after the holidays, then drag yourself to Cold Mountain. This film is the most tedious and emotionally exhausting I have seen in recent memory. Now I know…
  • MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS I try not to swear in print. It diminishes one's words and is so base and barbaric, but I think it captures this moment, for me, perfectly. I am not a fan of the holidays. I find much of it to…
  • P.S. If any of you are feeling low about having troubles at work, or being out of work, check out Michael Moore's early work, Roger & Me. It'll make you thankful for what you've got, and for not living in Flint, Mic…

  • The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced the nominees for the 2004 Golden Globes today. Of course, there was the requisite big studio-hyped nods to such pieces of dreck as The Last Samurai, and Master and Comma…
  • I must preface this rant - I am not one of those people who thinks the CIA is responsible for the drug problems in the ghettos around this country, I believed that Reagan was telling the truth when he said he didn't reme…
  • What I find most alarming about recent developments in the world: While GW's approval rating are up for the capture of Homeless Saddam (and Americans are loathe to admit it, but we love a good lynchin'), no one is tal…
  • I've realized, in my advanced age, that I am obsessed with economy. In my constant quest to economize, I have determined the following: If I could find a boyfriend, and move in with him, we could save money on rent …
  • Here's what's got to be the best review Winona's had in years. Poor girl. I wish I had more to say, but I can't breathe because I live with 2 cats (whom I hate), and I am in hell looking for a new place to live. …
  • There's nothing like Christmas to bring out the spirit of giving in people, especially when it means giving it to the Catholic Church. Lauryn Hill decided tis the season to unload on his holiness, et al, at the Vatican …
  • Hey, congratulations to us. We caught a homeless man hiding in a hole in his own hometown. For the $25 million reward, I should have phoned that one in. Now if we could only find those pesky weapons. Were't they the …

  • Who knew a photo from the bathroom at my work would receive so much attention? I marvel at what garners reactions from people. I was actually just remarking to my dear friend Andrea Marcovicci, at the Algonquin, that I…
  • This sign appears in my workplace's restroom. At first, I thought it was a no-brainer. Later, I realized that the company who makes this sign would not be doing such a robust business, had there not been a need for s…

  • I'm sick and depressed, neither of which is fun on it's own, and together they really suck.
  • Do you ever feel that all that you do, all that goes on in your daily life is all just meaningless crap? Does it ever feel that if you dropped out of existence, that there would be no ripple on the pool of life? I'm st…
  • WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS PHOTO? Sadly, it's a real AP photo of presidential wannabe Dick Gephardt at a rally in Iowa. Who knows, maybe this will give his campaign a lift?
  • Pet Peeve #562: Some people know how to clean. Some people know how to tidy up. Some people just accept that they are messy, and that's alright, as long as I don't have to live with them or visit too often. Then ther…
