Congressman Tim Bishop, Dis-Misses Women On His Website!

Dear Congressman Bishop,

I’ve come to your website to send you an email. I am asked to fill out a form telling you who I am and giving you my contact information so that you can respond to my concerns. The first form field asks me  for a “prefix.” The available choices, seen in the screenshot [...]

One For The Ladies!

I just thought I’d try embedding a YouTube video here. Will you look at this guy dance? At around 2:10 minutes, when he dances with the pole, could you just die?!?! Admit it! You WISH you were that pole! And 10 seconds from the end, around 3:20! Oh! Oh! A magnificent heron spreads his wings! [...]

“Lost” Is Lost On Me.

Sam,
Well, I hope you enjoyed the season premiere of “Lost,” last night.
I would have lived through ONE hour. But midway through the SECOND hour… I LOST it. I behaved badly, and did a very loud and gurgly imitation of Said’s death. Of course, flailing about, as if I was drowning, was part of the authenticity [...]
