Because We Like It?

Egad. Two psychologists from the University of Texas wrote a book entitled Why Women Have Sex. One of the authors is a woman–couldn’t she just have explained why she has sex to her co-author? And then they could have gone off and had sex together, or found some other people and done it with them. [...]
Montana Resists

Crazy Supremes: in the front row–except Ginsburg. Not-crazy Supremes: in the back row, except Alito. Montana has an old law on the books that says corporations can’t give money to candidates running for election. Seems that Montana had a taste of corporate corruption back in the early years of the twentieth-century, when large mining companies [...]

Unluckily Named

I’ve been watching the combine today because the defensive players are up, and all of Nebraska’s NFL candidates play defense. I’ve suffered through hours and hours of Rich Eisen’s beebling and self-promotion in order to watch Nebraska’s guys do their thing. Jared Crick and Lavonte David worked out today, but in different categories (Crick is [...]
Cats and Socks

Inky loves socks. He snatches them off of the dresser and out of the dirty clothes basket. Yesterday he tried to steal one right off my foot! When he captures a sock he races throughout the house with it in his mouth. He tosses it into the air, jumps up to catch it, and races [...]

Been watching the combine. Offensive linemen worked out today. Seems the ESPN guys show their cool by calling these guys “big uglies” or even “big sloppies.” Hmm. I give you Matt Kalil, OL from USC.
They Can’t Dance, Either

By all accounts, the Repug debate last night was a crashing bore. Indeed, the candidates’ remarks and behavior reinforced the impression that is emerging nationwide: these guys are all clowns. One can only hope the the subsequent conclusion will also be drawn: if these guys are the standard bearers of the party, then the entire [...]
Sniffed

I had lunch at Desert’s and Mr. Desert’s this afternoon. They have a pet-friendly house–two dogs, two cats, and a turtle live with them. When I got home, Inky began to sniff at my shoes and my pants. He wouldn’t stop. When I finally sat down, my shirt, my hands, and my face also got [...]

The New Times is reporting that Pinal County sheriff Paul Babeau had an affair with a guy. They broke up, and Babeau threatened to deport his former lover if he told anyone about their relationship. Apparently the threats kept coming, and so the former lover gathered lots of incriminating evidence and lawyered up. I don’t [...]
