A tidbit of news caught my attention last week.  It seems that an Italian scientist, named Emmanuele Jannini no less, has finally found the holy grail of orgasms.   Yes, that's right, he’s pinpointed the elusive G spot.

Why doesn’t it surprise me that he’s Italian?

I got my first cell phone for Christmas in 1993. It was approximately the size of my car and it came in a big, black zippered case. It had a cord.

Much like Zack Morris on "Saved by the Bell", I toted my phone with me everywhere and thought I was so awesome.

Seriously. That's how lame I am.

So my husband gets home from work and sniggers as he shows me a catalogue they gave him at work. He's meant to select a gift from it, which will be presented to him at an awards ceremony for five years of service at his company.

"Oh wow," I say, snatching the catalogue out of his hands. "They're giving you a free gift! Is it like something great, like a holiday in the Bahamas?"

"Not quite," he says. 

and I'm not afraid to use it!!

For all intents and purposes, the following is a suicide note.

Okay, I’m not really killing myself (you can stop emailing me the suicide prevention hotline number).  Well, not my physical self at least.   I am however killing off a virtual version of myself, so while it does deal with the ceasing of life it’s in the virtual and not literal sense.  I guess you could call it a WoWicide.

I've often thought it odd how certain foods become normal in our society while others are vanquished to scarcity.  How one culture can revere a food that another holds in righteous contempt.  Some foods are acquired tastes while others are seemingly innate in our diets.  Take for instance, brains and eggs.

I once lived on a nice little tree lined street and I would walk in the mornings to the train station to go to work. One morning in particular, I noticed a squirrel behind me. He was probably a few yards behind me but still, he was there, just lurking – oh yes, squirrels are lurkers. They stake you out before they pounce on you and attack.
