OK, I rant and rave about politics and you guys get tired of it, I’m sure.

Why have sex?

Tuesday, July 31st, 2007

A University of Texas (Austin) researcher has catalogued 237 reasons why people have sex, according to the NYTimes.  Feel free to add your own reasons; I was forced to have sex by a vast conspiracy of “smalls”, for example.

Paradox “solved”

This guy thinks he’s figured out why nice guys never win in the dating game.

Oddly, his advice — fahgettaboutit — is strangely similar to the advice I get from MindOverMary.

I’ve reached the conclusion we aren’t meant to understand the other gender.  If we did understand, where would the fun of mystery and challenge go?

The Hills are Alive …

Sunday, July 29th, 2007

Knowing that one of my teenage jobs was at Tower Theater (and that it’s where I learned to absolutely hate “The Sound of Music”), Osager teases me with a montage of photos of the now defunct 23rd Street landmark.

Notice that men wore suits and that even young men wore slacks and ties to go out.  One of the photos stunned me when I realized one of the young ladies was wearing white gloves. 

The hills are alive

with the sound of mucus

ragweed all around

makes me snort and wheeze …
