The Prettiest Denny's Waitress » This Wet Banana is not a euphemism, so knock it off
Posted 31 minutes ago
On a day like today, when it's cold enough that my laundry froze solid before I was even done hanging it to dry on the railing outside, it becomes difficult to remember the steamy days of summer, even though they are less than two months behind us. Although the temperature outside has just now climbed above freezing, barely, and the ... [Link]

I can’t express how wonderful it is that C has reached the age of giving hugs. I’ll never forget the first ever hug I got from my now three-year-old niece, A, and what a wonderful feeling it was. Now the Bug is hugging, and for extra cuteness, she tends to pat while hugging! [Link]

B'reisheet/Genesis 25:1-18 So, the story goes that Abram was renamed Abraham and Sarai was renamed Sarah. These two patriarchs of the Jewish faith begot a son, Isaac, only after Sarai gave her husband a maid to create Ishmael. Later, Isaac would be born to be the sole inheritor of Abraham's promises. In the mean time, since Abraham established and built Jerusalem, ... [Link]

After perusing several holiday gift guides, both in magazines and online, I have come to the realization that one of the following three things must be true:1. Other people make a hell of a lot more money than I do;2. Other people are accumulating an inordinate amount of debt during the holidays; or3. People who make gift guides know damn ... [Link]

This morning, I heard from a fairly reliable source that while Frank Niceley's chances of being chosen Speaker Pro Tempore by the Tennessee House Republican Caucus look promising, that "sweetheart deals" are being made to some Middle and West Tennessee Republicans so that they will cast their vote for Steve McDaniel. What is meant by "sweetheart deal?" Very likely, it ... [Link]

The Boy's stage presentation as the authoritative doctor in O. Henry's "The Last Leaf" was a rousing success. He only tripped over one line. His "deep voice of manly authority" carried his character well, as did his melodramatic-sweeping-hand-gesture interpretation of "feeling the patient's forehead to take her temperature." His white lab coat was cool, too.He felt bad that he flubbed ... [Link]

I am completely confident in declaring Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson’s new baby to have THE WORST baby name ever. Bronx Wentz. Just say that out loud. Bronx Wentz. Congrats to the new parents. I’m sure he’s gorgeous. And I’ll bet he’ll insist on being known as “Will” or “David” or “Ben” by about fifth grade. addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fwww.katieallisong~ addthis_title ... [Link]
