It takes a special kind of evil to be able to mock the recently deceased but Fox News radio host John Gibson proved he was just such a troll with his Jan. 22 radio show in which he mocked actor Heath Ledger’s passing with lame Brokeback Mountain jokes. Really? This is what passes as professional…
Or just another whimsical, quirky rom-com? Anyone have thoughts they’d like to share? Here are mine: I really really enjoyed it. To be honest, I was moved by it… Almost to tears. And I’m not a sap. There’s nothing more fem than pregnancy. It’s an experience that a man will never be able to drag…
I’ve got to dash. (In fact, late already.) But wanted to add two more bits … Today’s Dem Prez e-mail tally — Clinton: 7, Obama: 0. Check that. I mean Clinton: 8, Obama: 1. Can’t sum up the media’s chatter about Nevada’s CaucusFest better than The Gleaner, so I won’t even try. — Emmily
The humble Sin City Siren gets a mention in Morra Aaron‘s (you might know her from CNN punditry) political post on BlogHer! Here’s what I said: Even as close as we are to the caucus, I still can’t get a sense of who will be going to this thing. As in, from the masses, regular…
Buried under a pile of paperwork (government forms make me itch), I dig myself out momentarily to offer you these news bits. Enjoy and remember to chew thoroughly.

My high school friend Monika Thomas, of Sexploration with Monika fame, got a sweet write-up in the San Francisco Gate. Ironically, it wasn’t the sex that got the writer going. It was Monika’s gig as a professional housesitter. Classic! — Emmily
I admit that during most of December I traded my normal media gluttony for actual gluttony. It being a shiny New Year and all, I thought it was time to pull my head out of the cookie jar and start paying attention to the world around me — or at least what the media’s covering…
Interesting take by Salon commentators on an Internet rumor that a certain film studio won’t be spitting out movies starring a woman, because supposedly women can’t carry a movie. Or something. Anyway here it is. I think Salon does a good job of pointing out the BS in this ‘theory’. Here’s the link since apparently…
Sometimes the universe reaches out and gives you a nudge. I can take a hint, usually. A few weeks back a reporter from a local paper that shall go unnamed sent me an e-mail with a survey of questions about my role as a “political blogger” in Nevada. Why did you start your blog? What…
