As many of you have heard, either because I’ve been coughing down the hall or because you’ve emailed, I have been sick. We all got through the big charity event on Saturday (which turned out well, I think), and then promptly collapsed. I’ve been philosophical about it. I’m going home for the holidays next week,
Periodically, I get asked to check out other bloggers, and I thought this site might intrigue you guys. If you are interested in hearing from a number of different perspectives on the dating scene outside of Los Angeles, you should check out this blog: http://www.kizmeet.com/blog. The blog is an aggregate blog of sorts – it
http://www.wlwt.com/news/18196466/detail.html I saw this headline, and I thought of you guys: “Man Says Wife Was Accidentally Shot During Sex”. Well, who hasn’t that happened to? I mean, if I had a dime for every time a gun went off when I was having an intimate moment, I’d…um…yeah, I’d still be broke because this doesn’t ever
I was wandering through my usual set of AOL alerts, and somehow, I ended up on an article that claims that there are 12 kinds of sex that every couple should have. What can I tell you; you can’t put a headline like that in front of me without me clicking on it. Plus, I

Are there two words that make you groan more often than “jury duty”? It’s not that I don’t understand my civic obligations. I do. But I appear to be the State of California’s favorite juror. This is my fifth summons in seven years. I think we can all agree that this is a tad excessive.
I’m confident when I say that none of us are perfect beings. I’m relatively sure that most of us can say that there have been incidents in our lives that we look back upon with chagrin. Some of us have probably had close calls, and somehow the whims of the universe managed not to slap
Little did I know that I had stumbled on to the new hot topic in dating: the affair. Check out this TMZ article: http://www.tmz.com/2008/11/06/dating-site-for-cheaters-scores/ That’s right; the tag line is “Life is Short. Have an Affair.” That lovely ad, complete with sentiment, will be running in Super Bowl programs – I guess we can at
