From my Gender and Society reading: “…Probably a whole continuum of sexual desire exists, with some people no more able to sexualize same-sex people than they can a bowling ball and some people no more able to sexualize other-sex people than they can a basketball. Still others can be turned on to either–and even to ...
I need to get new earplugs. I initially got them because the Smashing Pumpkins nearly deafened me on the Adore tour. I had great seats, but it was at Constitution Hall in DC, which has the most atrocious acoustics I’ve heard, ever. They had the subwoofers (low frequency, like the bass) jacked way up, and ...

I think those types of weblogs that address serious political issues should all go sit in one little corner of the web and fight and spit at ...
I went to White Hen on the way back from a midnight IHOP run for the second time in about a month, and for the second time in about a month, White Hen was closed for cleaning. Employees were shooing people away, even as I looked down the door to the sign that says “Open ...
It has occured to me that either the TA or the prof of my News and New Media course may get bored with reading fake AP stories and click on my weblog link when they hit my index page, and thereby end up reading my last post, thereby leading them to strongly consider failing me ...
