So, I’m pretty much addicted (at least until The Hills comes back) to a “reality” show on MTV called From G’s to Gents. It’s exactly like it sounds. Fourteen real-life gangstas including D-Boy, E6, Shotta, J Boogie, The Truth and my own personal fave, Creepa try to prove that they can leave their gangbanging ways […]

Of course, everyone knows WAVE has the opening ceremonies of the Olympics tonight. So, I thought I’d check out what the other stations are offering in opposition. WLKY is running “Ghost Whisperer” – the typical Friday night program, so nothing too crazy there. WDRB is showing “Hellboy.” Okay, I can see that too. They are

Since my maternity leave is officially over, I thought I’d reprise my role of the Roger Ebert of As Seen On TV (and other similar) products. Today, I’ve chosen a selection of 11 items, all of which I’m sure have been on Price is Right in some way, shape or form at some time in

Last night I had the misfortune of walking into a TV switchback in my living room. By TV switchback, I mean one of those situations when someone else has the remote and is watching 2 programs simultaneously, switching back and forth at the most inopportune moments. Normally, around our house, the programs are usually something
They say that 80% of Advertising-related RFP’s (Request For Proposal) are fixed. In other words, the folks at the organization already know which agency they are going with. And often they are staying with their current agency and are just conducting the RFP to satisfy some corporate rule. This pisses me off because folks on

Having been on maternity leave for five weeks, I’ve had a lot of time (while my wee one sleeps) to watch some solid daytime TV. I could go on and on about daytime TV in and of itself, but that wouldn’t really advance the cause of this blog, which is supposed to address issues of

I think Facebook, Amazon and TiVo are triplets separated at birth. Okay, so they’re fraternal… but they’re multiples of the same genes. Let me explain. All three tools have been taught and molded into useful and gratifying weapons in our every day arsenals. But, they have the same personality flaw — they presume a lot

I visited my parents’ house a few weeks ago and smashed my toe on a piece of furniture. I really crunched it and pretty much broke my little toe. I’m not much of a complainer when infirm and it was fairly painful to walk on, even after I taped it up, so I basically tried
I have a female friend who once told me that she had a HUGE crush on Abraham Lincoln when she was a kid. Her room was adorned with pictures of good old Honest Abe instead of tear out posters from Teen Bop or the latest movie star craze. I found this absolutely fascinating and strangely

She grabbed me. Then I heard it. The buzz. I freaked. What is she doing to me??? This wasn’t a brush she was running through my coat. Oh my, I’m all over the floor. And suddenly I feel a cool breeze on my side. Now I feel it on top. This is weird. My hair
