I’ve been dying to point that out too – but I didn’t want to spoil it for the reviewer who’s obviously behind by a few episodes. But yeah – get your box of tissues and a stiff drink ready because Mozart’s death was the saddest thing that’s ever happened to a personified weasel on a reality TV show.

I call in sick on that day 3 or 4 times a year. Add that to the few days a year I really am sick with the flu or a bad cold and I do use up all of my sick time.

But I always check my email and take those few important phone calls when I’m at home sick. I know I accomplish more at home on a sick day then someone who really is sick accomplishes when they come in and try to fake it (that person fools no one).

Also – I work in HR and we don’t keep a record of unused sick days. I’ve never worked in an environment where anyone was punished or rewarded for taking or not taking their allotted sick days. It’s the people who are always sick and late beyond their sick days who draw attention to themselves.

“If a child can be taken from the womb in the seventh month and kept alive, that same child, if aborted in the seventh month, ought to be considered a MURDER VICTIM.”

If I found out that the child I carried had some sort of terrible disease that was going to mean pain and suffering I would want an abortion. And at 7 months I wouldn’t want to have to wait a second longer – I’d want it done just as quickly as it could be done.

But you would what? Give me some time to ‘think’ about it only to insist that my child be forcibly taken from my womb (perhaps leaving it in further pain and struggling for life) while I’m up on attempted murder charges?

You don’t care about children (this is the same guy who called pre-pubescent girls roaches). You care about YOU and some imagined woman who’s just waiting to wrong you.

It sounds so forced, un-cool and oddly sexist. It’s not good. I'd never use it.

I don’t like the idea of having ‘the talk’ with him before he’s really ready for the talk. I think ‘the talk’ is best saved for the next morning over coffee when you’ve both got that question burning in your heads. I’m in favor of stealing him away overseas, planning a night that he’ll love (cater to his soft spots in a low key sort of way), catching him at just the right moment and leaning in on him. Part your lips, lower your lashes, touch your hair – if he hasn’t thought about it before make him think about it now. I seriously doubt that plan dosen’t work – but on the off chance it dosen’t you can blame it on the booze, the local and the moment and at least you know where you stand.

But don’t over talk this before there is anything to really talk about. Intellectually it might sound like the thing to do but you’ve got intellectual down – its physical you need to work on. Get him wanting you as bad as you want him and then there’s something to talk about.

Because I’m completely over having 4 different devices that could easily be reduced to one. I figure in a year or two the new iPhone is going to come with an iBook feature built in and that’s when this technology is going to take off: when it’s there to use or not with no pressure and no additional hardware to buy.

Yikes – a few thousand drunk guys at a sporting event is NOT the thing that’s going to inspire me to take my top off no matter how excited I am over the game. I don’t really appreciate men doing it either – it seems like an aggressive move (as if they’re preparing for battle and need to show of their manliness).

At the beach or a swimming hole it’s normal to be topless (or naked even) but there is a time and a place. At a public arena I think the best choice is for everyone to stay clothed.
