Top Ten Douches of 2011

Yesterday, stark.raving.mad.mommy. and I gave you the Special Douche Categories that we invented for people who were too evil to be mere douches. We know douches and the folks we discussed yesterday are not just your average feminine hygiene accessory.They are more like some sort of torture device and I wouldn’t be sad if all [...]

New Column: Are Legos for girls a big deal?

My latest So Here’s The Thing column is up at the Washington Times Communities page. This week I take on the forthcoming Leg playsets aimed at girls. I like that they’re less slutty than Bratz. Obviously, what the Lego people are doing is trying to get a foothold in a lucrative segment of the market: [...]

I’m afraid the Politically Correct war of the Holiday Greetings may be over and the greetings lost. Since then, [...]

(Amazing that I’m doing any writing at all  given that my son’s desire to be 6 inches from me at all times, including while I clean the bathrooms, is crossing the line into stalker-ish behavior). It’s all about the Elf on the [...]
