Apparently when you switch networks and move from morning TV news to night, one of the perks is that your publicity photo gets doctored to make you look skinnier. Score! And we thought Katie jumped ship just for the money and prestige.
Wow, the mind just boggles. Instead of that contract provision […]
Oh, how the mighty child-molesting, child-pimping, wife-and-children-reaassigning have fallen.
I especially like this:
“Warren Steed Jeffs told his lieutenants he was invincible, protected by God from capture, investigators say. According to Utah’s attorney general, bodyguards for the polygamist sect leader had promised a gunfight and said they would die for him.
Those vows, fortunately, amounted to nothing Monday […]
Last night, while I was happily enjoying Meg Cabot’s latest adult novel The Queen of Babble, a particularly cruel friend of mine called to force me to watch Celebrity Duets.

As always, whenever my friends hear that I’m going to New York, they instantly panic. Because they feel I can’t […]
Apparently while I was gone, evolutionary biology was eliminated by the federal government as an acceptable field of study.
Read the whole article for all the spine-tingling intrigue, but here’s a taste:
Nassirian said people at the Education Department had described the omission as “a clerical mistake.” But it is “odd,” he said, because applying […]
It’s a mark of how relaxing a backpacking trip can be when you spend two hours sitting in camp watching the cow channel.
That was what was on last night as we sat across from a hillside coated with about a hundred head of cattle. We had soup and ate trail mix and peanut butter […]
