Grab your pup and go sidewalk surfing with me. No animals were harmed in the making of this video. Don’t harm animals, dummy.

True Romance
March 25, 2011 – 3:35 pm
My first awareness of Elizabeth Taylor was in the 80′s. She had perfumes. She was friends with Michael Jackson. She had been married a lot. Sometimes she was on talk shows. She had that over-tucked, over-dyed, plastic look that makes older celebrities look really scary. I didn’t really know who she was beyond that. It wasn’t [...]

My Favorite Commercial
January 7, 2011 – 10:34 am
This Aiwa commercial ran in the 90′s and every time I hear the Queen song “Another One Bites the Dust” I think of it. It’s so patently offensive that I can’t imagine that it ran for very long. I’m also guessing that because whenever the song comes on, I can’t help but mention the commercial, [...]
Lady Luck
December 14, 2010 – 10:34 pm
Living in New York for the last fourteen years, I have amassed a really wonderful group of smart, talented, and supportive female friends. Unfortunately, our varied professions and scattered personal lives make it difficult to get together (as a group) on a regular basis. In fact, I think we talk about it more over emails, [...]
From Birth to Age Ten in 85 Seconds
December 6, 2010 – 10:53 pm
One of the things I love about the internet is the weirdness of it. It offers so many peeks into the odd behavior of other human beings, which can often be cringe-inducing, but when it isn’t, can just be fascinating to look at. Seeing all the strangeness that’s out there tends to have the effect [...]
