Call Me ...

...or text me, or email me, or IM me, or Tweet me......

Yep, I have the Google phone and so far, for the most part, it truly does rock.

Thanks For The Memories

A nice appreciation of President Bush, and the man he is, as he prepares to leave the White House.

It would have been easy for me to dismiss Ms. Perino as a bright and likable but ultimately Kool-Aid-stricken peddler of talking points, were it not for two things. First, …

Taking It For A Twhirl

Still undecided about Twitter, though I like it much better now that I am using Twhirl

Women's Rights Around The World

A Muslim Uyghur woman who is more than six months pregnant remains under guard in a hospital in China

Like Looking in the Mirror

..or, you know, feeling really in sync with someone I've never met. Either way...

Why do I think Rachel and I may have been seperated at birth? I present the evidence:

Don't get me wrong; I'm not so shallow as to love a certain actor for looks alone. Talent is …

How's That Workin' For Ya?

More Tantrum Throwing

The Sundance Film Festival is known to be extremely supportive of gay & lesbian artists and projects.

Robert Redford's charity depends on the Sundance Film Festival as their main source of fund-raising.

To Tweet or Not To Tweet

Yeah, I am way behind the times. I have a couple of friends who have been pushing Twitter for ages, but I just never saw the point. Like MySpace, which I played with enough to set up a large selection of music friends, but now don't log into often enough to know what …
