Let's just say I really liked Real Genius and leave it at that.
What I'm Reading
Everything by Philippa Gregory, The Salmon Of Doubt (which I will never finish, because if I do I will have read everything Douglas Adams ever wrote, and who wants to live in a world without more Douglas Adams), about 12 magazines, a book on acrylic painting, and a whole lotta zimbio.
Subjects I'd Like to Learn More About
history, art, writing, the internet, and Joss Whedon
Judging by their reactions, Dr. Phil’s audience likes him about as much as we do.
The only people in the world who are bigger douchebags than Dr. Phil himself are the tools he invites on his show. Remember the rapist with the babysitter fetish (aw, how could we forget?) Well, he’s got nothin’ on these two yahoos. Nouveau-feminist website Jezebel, whose comments are way better than their articles, had a few choice words to share on the subject today.

Environmentalists involved in the fight to save Earth’s biodiversity have an unexpected ally this year; Haagen-Dazs, which means “sticks to the thighs” in Dutch or something, is joining the fight to save the American Honey Bee from extinction. The makers of Haagen-Dazs ice cream, who rely on honey bees to pollinate natural ingredients like almonds, raspberries, cherries, and pears, have launched a campaign complete with flashy website and sizable donations to university entomology programs...

Those of you who have followed our series on New Orleans City Council’s wildly misguided war on homelessness will not be shocked to learn that the city’s illustrious leaders are now considering a proposal which would literally criminalize homelessness. Under the proposed measure, members of the homeless population would have a choice: go to... Read Full Story
How quickly they forget. Just last year, the congressional witch hunt for steroids in professional sports whipped into a frenzied climax when professional wrestler Chris Benoit brutally murdered his wife and child before committing suicide in what was assumed to be a steroid-induced mania. This week, they celebrated the career of wrestling icon “Nature Boy” Ric Flair, who recently retired. I guess. U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick, R-N.C., gave a brief speech on the floor of the House this week...
