my CPA/Corporate tax specialist-ex engineer-high math and science achiever-bread winner of a wife (who majored in Physics and CS at Northwestern) spends a great deal of her limited spare time obsessively playing farming and fishing games on the DS. She's got, like, a million of them and claims they're all different, and are apparently more stimulating company after 10-12 hours of slogging through tax codes than I am. Before you know it she's gonna chuck it all in and we'll be off to work on the Palin's salmon fishery. Or a chicken farm in Belize. Cuz girls are just like that, no? I mean, sure, we can trust boys to come to grips with complex decisions, like not climbing up the side of a building and shooting at people after doing in a video game, but girls... Jeez, we'd better just go back to giving them baby dolls that alternately nurse and poop, or Barbie play sets that come complete with little plastic vacuum cleaners and pots and pans, or EZ Bake ovens... Cuz none of those things could give young girls very specific ideas about what the world expects of them.

Those pictures seem to be almost a perfect reflection of how most of us feel airlines treat their customers. All I can hope is that those snapshots came from Ryanair, after they decided to slap a surprise surcharge on my friend's wheelchair... post boarding. My heart bleeds.

If she keeps on participating in MMA fights it wont be a problem anymore. After having her nose broken multiple times, or after she's had her cauliflower ears drained for the about the hundredth time, she WONT be uhh, hold on a minute... an "Ass-kicking sex symbol" and "totally marketable" besides.

Honestly, if you've ever spent much time around fighters, and particularly wrestlers, you'll quickly come to the realization that they've had to let go of any fantasies about simultaneously receiving "Grisly battle wounds" and maintaining any kind of physical beauty standard.

Having someone repeatedly pound your face in lightweight gloves is just about the most efficient way I can think of to get one's pretty face into a state that even the most desperate and virginal of the frat boy retards who read Maxim couldn't love.

I would have rather seen Barney Frank host that episode.

the ads for 'the Mormons' running the length of this article. I'm going to follow Joan's advice and stand up for my liberal values and call bullshit on that little bit of obvious hypocrisy between an article about how Obama's opportunistic betrayals of liberals is biting him on the ass, and its obvious sponsorship on a liberal media outlet by a group that attacks a segment of that same population.

I understand that advertising dollars are at a premium these days, but if we're going to discuss sticking to our political guns, let's do it by making sure the people who seek to oppress the freedoms of some in our midst (remember prop 8?) have no official voice in one of our own media outlets.
