Some inappropriate jokes and banter here but still interesting to see wrestlers dropping their characters and joking around…
“I did not put anything into the book that had not happened [to women] at some time or in some place in history or was not happening when I was writing the book. So it was all reality-based and one reason I did that is I did not want to hear ‘You’ve got a warped, […]
Got home and Shea said “Why did you post the word ‘Mark’ on your Facebook today?” Huh? So I look: My boss’s name is Mark but I don’t even have him on Facebook. I have another work colleague I interact with fairly regularly named Mark but same thing – not on my Facebook. I […]
Sasha had her ninth birthday today and though we had a pretty mellow art/painting/Bob Ross theme for our budding artist, as most pre-teens have for years, someone ended up suggesting they do “Bloody Mary” in our bathroom.

Around two weeks after the attacks, one of the first big comedy events held in New York City was the Friar’s Club Roast of Hugh Hefner. Throughout the night, as funny as it was, there was also an […]
As Ramadan begins, it’s got me thinking about how (or if?) I balance my views about religion as an atheist with my desire to (try to) be kind and respectful and inclusive as a human being? I mean, you’re reading a recurring theme post I do most weeks called “Secular Sunday” that regulary pokes fun […]
It’s funny how the most simple, brief exchange can stick with you forever and maybe even help remind you of what’s ultimately important in life. Many years ago, a former co-worker showed up and saw that she would be working with myself, another staff member who’s arguably about as universally loved as you can get […]
One of our neighbours occasionally texts “You up for a pint?” Most of the time he means beer but the other night, he showed up with a pint jar of homemade moonshine his co-worker had given him. (Apparently the secret is to dissolve Jolly Rancher candies in the mixture?!?)
