Another reason to hate the 70′s…

51XTE4Q3F4L._SL300_

Two words: “Love Story “ Now I realize there are tons of people “of a certain age” who adore this movie and that it was nominated for a bunch of Oscars, but clearly the esteemed members of The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences were STONED OUT OF THEIR MINDS at the time. It …

Janice Dickinson needs a biology lesson…

Evidently 70′s modeling superstar Janice Dickinson recently sobered up long enough to realize what every other person on the planet has known for…oh I don’t know, the last couple YEARS. Janice is claiming she’d like to have a love affair with Angelina Jolie, to which I say, "Get in line, Sweetie." But Janice has taken her …

Rainbow Wash-Out, AKA Where are the gay guys when you need them?

Dr. Darling and I used to have occasional pangs of guilt over the fact that we aren’t more actively involved in the local gay community. Not often, but once in awhile. We do have some gay friends (all men, for some reason) but they aren’t plugged into the LGBT scene either. Don’t get me wrong, …

Gettin’ my battle cry on!

Via my pal Drivel from the Middle, this is one of the more amusing "blog quiz things" I’ve seen in awhile.    What Is Your Battle Cry? Running along the plains, cutting down all who dare stand in the way using buzzsaw hand extensions, cometh Shazzer! And she gives an ominous bellow: "I’m going to …

Civic duty, Swedish-style

I voted in Sweden’s national election yesterday. As a fairly new Swedish citizen, this was the first time I was eligible to do so, and let’s just say it was "educational." First off, unlike my homeland (which technically has a two-party system of government but in reality has operated more like a single-party dictatorship in recent years), …
