Pssst. Hey, you. Come a little closer because I have a secret to tell you. I fucking hate Amy Tan. Shocking, I know, but I cannot stand the bitch. OK, OK, to be fair, that’s not exactly true. I don’t hate Amy Tan herself (partly because I don’t even know her), but I hate the [...]

Hello. I have not blogged for the past few days for several reasons. One, I am fucking sick and tired of political bullshit, and it’s one of my bailiwicks. Two, I’ve been busy with work and shit, damn it. Three, I’m mulling something over in my mind that I don’t really want to blog about, [...]

We lost a good man today. Well, yesterday, but I woke up to the news today. Senator Ted Kennedy, the last of the fabled Kennedy boys, has left this world. He has been in serious decline for the last year or so, so I can’t say it was a shock to wake up to the [...]

I am blogging tipsy again, and I have reached my limit with the sheer stupidity that is the GOP party right now (as well as the asswipes from the so-called liberal media who are nothing but a bunch of apologetic whores for the right). The birthers, the deathers (or, as Keith Olbermann calls them, the [...]

Sorry. You get no blog today. I am feeling shitty, and I don’t feel like talking about it, so you get some videos instead.
Video Number One is from TiredMom. She said she thought of me when she heard it. Besides the fact that I DO want it all the time, I agree with the rest [...]

When we left your intrepid blogger, I was waxing poetic about sex. What? I was talking about god? Little matter. My blog, my spin. Anyway, we were talking about words and how much I adore them. They intoxicate me and fill me with a swooning glee. I savor the taste of a new word as [...]

Words are funny things. In and of themselves, they are pretty neutral. It’s only because of the meaning we imbue them with that they become charged. Take, for example, the word faggot or fag. In America, it’s a derogatory term for a homosexual man. In England, it’s a cigarette. Originally, it meant a stick.

First of all, this is the best political thread of the day, bar none. It’s classic Balloon Juice snark–very high quality. I start out with that because I need all the laughs I can get these days, and that entire thread gave me hearty guffaws for several minutes. I go to BJ for the [...]

I have many things going on right now, so why do I feel as if I’m going nowhere, and fast? As I mentioned yesterday, I have a new blogging gig. In addition, I have my mom’s magnum opus to type (around 250 pages), and another editing job on the backburner. In addition, I’m blogging every [...]

I just found out some news that really pisses me off, but since it’s of the least importance, I will save it for later.
First of all, I have added Yellow Menace to my blogroll to the left. Please check it out when you have a moment because it’s a rollicking good site filled with all [...]
