And I thought it was disgusting that young boys were playing video games that encourages them to kill women in order to receive “health points”. Then my friend showed me an article about this website game called Miss Bimbo. Described as a “fashion” game, this game encourages young girls (the majority between the ages of […]

March 22nd, 2008 · 1 Comment
If I were to add up all my “unnecessary” expenditures over the past three years, I’m positive that I could account my general lack of funding for getting my nails done on one expense: concerts. I absolutely love concerts- the lack of personal space, the sense of community among the audience, the buzz […]

Spitzer Shame
March 21st, 2008 · 1 Comment
Thanks Hollis for your post on the Spitzer scandal. I thought I would weigh in as well. First, I am completely outraged by Cindy Adams’ female chauvanist piece in her gossip column advising Spitzer’s wife to stay with the grimy hypocrite. I don’t think it is anyone’s place to decide what this woman does, however […]

I don’t have much time, but I did want to post this “article” regarding Silda Spitzer reaction to her husband’s (the now ex governor of New York) sex scandal.
Now I do realize that People.com is not even remotely considered to be reliable, but people read it. I cannot believe that this publication […]

My newest girl crush: Diablo Cody
March 5th, 2008 · No Comments
So I saw Juno last month and I LOVED it. I thought it was funny, sarcastic and extremely well-written. It gave a unique insight into our generation that only a talented screenwriter could accomplish. I became instantly smitten with the mysterious person behind such a great indie movie.
Imagine my delight when I […]

Across The Universe
March 2nd, 2008 · 1 Comment
I just started watching one of the best movies, Across The Universe. To be honest, when I first saw the trailer I thought that it might look a little bit lame, but when I actually went and saw the movie, I cried, laughed, and smiled. You can relate to all of the characters in different […]
