Anyone not under a rock today knows that McCain chose Alaska Governor, Sarah Palin, as his running mate. Rich is impressed that she is a lifetime member of the NRA, she hunts, eats moose, plays basketball and was a runner up in the Miss Alaska pageant 25 years ago. I am impressed that she got […]

Hooray for Hollywood
My best friend, Eva, has a role in the new Samuel L. Jackson movie, Lakeview Terrace. This looks really good… I’d see this even if Eva wasn’t in it. I believe she plays an Internal Affairs officer who looks into the complaints about Jackson’s character. It opens September 19th.So, um, go see it.
We already know it weighs more than she does.
A solid gold sculpture of Kate Moss? Worth 2.8 million? Think of its worth, had the crazy artist sculpted it from cocaine! And then it truly would be representative of Ms. Moss.
Shampoo bottle avalanche? Not in my shower.
Dad Gone Mad is a blog I check every morning. The guy who writes it is really funny, and what I find interesting is that even though it is written from the male point of view, I find myself connecting with the Dad as much or more than I connect with the Mom. Case in […]
Tonight’s secret ingredient is….!
Conner is getting braces. He got the brackets, spaces and a bite plate last week and has had trouble speaking and eating ever since. (Well, to be honest, he’s always had trouble speaking and eating, it’s just that now he has a good excuse.) I made pulled pork sandwiches for dinner. I warned that there […]

If you know someone who collects crap like this, perhaps you should consider ending the relationship. If you can’t end the relationship for some reason (for example, your grandma collects them) here are some alternative gift ideas, so that you don’t become an enabler: A feather duster A straight jacket A gift certificate to The […]
There’s a girl in my breakfast cereal.
My good friend Chris and her daughter, Lauren, spent the night at my house last night. Chris works nearby and needs to take Lauren to a dental appointment (wisdom teeth – bummer) this afternoon. It makes total sense that they spent the night because that way Chris has a 4 mile commute instead of a […]
Well, then that’s different.
We went to the cabin this weekend. Rich was working on a project outside, tools scattered all around. Grant picked up one of the tools. “Put that down Grant. It’s not a toy.”“I’m not using it as a toy.”
Still in mourning, sorry.
I guess there is a new video game , where the object is to defend the WTC Twin Towers from space aliens. It’s attached to an art exhibit of some kind, but it is still a game that is using 9/11 as a premise. Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too soon to be making games like that. I’m not […]
Goodwill my ass.
Instead of Spring Cleaning, I’m doing End of Summer cleaning. Going through kids’ closets and seeing what can be passed down to another brother, what is for Goodwill, what’s only good enough for the rag bag, etc… I’m also clearing out just a lot of Stuff. Vases, picture frames, old linens, and things that I’m […]
