Yet a little more surfaced today on John McCain and his fine respect for women from his first wife, Carol:
‘My marriage ended because John McCain didn’t want to be 40, he wanted to be 25. You know that happens…it just does.’
Yep… It does happen. But, some would say that McCain is “a self-centred womaniser who [...]

For those of you unfamiliar with the 60s in France, Brigitte Bardot was a HUGE movie star and singer. She became a sex symbol especially through Roger Vadim’s film And God Created Woman (am I showing my age??) and the best songwriters composed for her. After the “refrigerator stars” of the 40s and 50s in [...]

I woke up to a real case of the blues today, hearing the news about Ted Kennedy. Needless to say, the day is done and I “Still Got The Blues“:

Good gracious the wingnuts have lost it. That large turnout for Obama in Oregon the other day wasn’t about him… it was about a local indie band. That’s even more far-fetched than the meme that folks turned out for Springsteen and not Kerry in ‘04 when Springsteen performed at rallies for Kerry. I can’t help [...]

Because I need a break from writing. Lest you think I am a total slacker, my computer hard drive died on me and there is only one lab computer I can use which has the software I need for certain things. See, it’s not all my fault.

This great song by James Brown (sung by Christina Aguilera at the 2007 Grammy’s) has been running through my head all day today. You know… “It’s A Man’s World… But It Don’t Mean Nothing Without A Woman”:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rh2Yxp6q2h0
Which leads me and many other women in America to wonder… “If not now, when can a woman be president?”

I remember the days when I used to enjoy staying up late or even finding a place to go that was Open All Night. These days, I’m happy to turn in a lot earlier than I used to. But for those looking a for a place that’s Open All Night… Here’s the ticket from Bruce [...]

Following up on my rant below, I want to remind readers how freakin important it is to keep your “eyes on the prize.” From Bruce Springsteen’s Live In Dublin, The Seeger Sessions:

The outcome of this presidental election is far to important to take your ball and go home if the nominee of your choice isn’t [...]
