Tonight, Barack Obama will appear on your television screen for 30 minutes in order to convince you to vote for him next week. He'll be on CBS, NBC, Univision, Fox, MSNBC, and BET. (But not ABC! Tune...

I have finally accepted that, although I can enjoy the Wonder Woman comic, I have no interest in Wonder Woman as a character. It feels like I should block myself from every feminist site on the internet, burn my copy of Backlash and turn in my ovaries. I’m also probably not allowed to [...]

After THE EXORCIST, Linda Blair's first theatrical film was AIRPORT 1975 in which she was lost in an all-star cast while waiting for a kidney transplant and having Helen Reddy serenade her (as a nun). Perhaps not a good career choice. Our favorite lady fared a bit better on television not long afterwards when she starred in BORN INNOCENT, a tough and controversial TV-movie that presented what was arguably...

At the core of everything I do, from brushing my teeth (while I gaze at my early morning face and wonder when THAT age spot appeared') to driving a car (no, I do not care to inch my way into the far left lane just to turn left, and yes, that makes me a scaredy-cat, I guess), to watching television (I LIKE the commercials - many of them are better than the shows!), I am a woman. I am female. Hear me...

In the summer of 1973, I presume I played baseball, went to summer band rehearsals, spent a week with my cousin and another with my grandparents, and drove a tractor on the farm to earn some spending money, but I’ll be damned if I can remember. That summer, unlike the rest of the summers when [...]

I enjoyed the following read from Marcia Oddi at the Indiana Law Blog on how her stories and objections (as well as from others) may have had an impact on keeping certain materials available on the Indiana Legislative web site, eg., Previous acts of the Legislature!. What comes to mind at first is "I am blawger, hear me roar!" Yes, I know I have used that Helen Reddy aliteration before, but what do...
