Bail-Out Bill gets Pwned!

As of a little over an hour ago, the Bail-Out plan that was to evolve into a trillion dollar rescue for investors and banks who intentionally sank their own ship- was DENIED. The house struck it down with force- a bipartisan effort that spanned the entire length of both parties. Apparently, morality still has clout [...]

The Bail Out “Bill” in all it’s crookedness!

Looks like the New York Times got ahold of the fated Bailout rhetoric. I’m interested in reading it…

The midnight rider rides on…

Like a Hedge Fund Cowboy: Riding Out on a Bailout in a Star-Spangled Market Crash

Like many of the 300 some odd million Americans out there, my family is one of those who may lose a house because of the impending market doom. It’s my sister- her house burned down a few years back, and the return she got from the insurance agency gave her the idea of building a [...]

Toasting the Muffin- Sex For One: Why is Female Masturbation Still Taboo?

Let me first start off this blog (as you’ve read the title and already understand what it’s going to be about) by saying that I was raised by a guilty Catholic mother. And, in such households, there are certain things you don’t talk about. Masturbating would be at the very top of that list. You [...]

The hipster wears no clothes.

After coming across an interesting article out of Mexico D.F. (the capital of Mexico for those of you who are geographically challenged), by Time Magazine: Mexico’s Emo-Bashing Problem… I’ve become kind of interested in the phenomenon of “urban tribalism”. I felt pretty ridiculous reading about urban tribalism, realizing that for much of my life, I’d [...]

UTI’s- and why they royally suck.

See…my husband doesn’t understand why my patience suddenly becomes zero, the moment symptoms crop up. After all, men nearly never get the damn things. But, it’s just another on the list of painful and irritating things women suffer from, simply by virtue of having a vagina: yep…a urinary tract infection. They’re hardly pleasant, and exceedingly [...]
