Reading the Vanity Fair Oral History of Disco.
Love the quote from Fran Lebowitz:
Love the quote from Fran Lebowitz:
People want to dance because people want to have sex. Dancing is sex. That's why when people say, "I'm a great dancer," that's not actually what they mean.
So true. Though, in my experience, the guys that boast about being good on the dancefloor are usually severely lacking in the...

iPad: sounds like a high tech device Kotex might produce.
totem:
yes. and it confuses me. it looks like a big iphone? but doesnt make calls...and doesnt apple already produce pretty swish laptops? is it a replacement for a laptop? ARGH my brain *melts*
iLove iPad (even tho the name sucks). Apple have just made all my dreams come true. iWant.
Princess & The Frog; Disney teaching young girls to prostitute themselves. Princess Tiana gives a frog a kiss in exchange for money for her new restaurant. Dubious message me thinks....
the_alpha_jan:
I saw that movie and thought it was awesome. Don't forget the frog really isn't a frog and wants to be human again so will do what it takes to be human again. So both parties are at fault in some way.

I really appreciate that you've taken the time to put some thought into this important issue LOL!
Also, love that fact you still watch childrens films.
To put this in perspective, that day I watched this, I also went shopping with my 8-year old BFF Riley and spent quality time playing with her rad new Play-Doh Magic Swirl Ice Cream Shoppe set.

Sounds like a good time. Makes me miss living near LA.

Nicely Done To Everyone.
As someone who was never a huge fan of Leno or Conan (Craig Ferguson and Chelsea Lately are more my style), I still backed Team Coco when the shit hit the fan. When a David is battling a Goliath, I'll support the little guy (or girl) every time. However, now that it looks like Conan has settled his differences with NBC, and Leno is getting...

Tori Black is pretty. Never seen her before but I've burned out of porn decades ago (literally). Patrick I know though. She's cool. You had a pretty good interview with her.

It's a German board game where you buy shares of 6 of the European powers right before WWI. The playability is great and I prefer games that have no luck element (no dice rolling, no random cards, etc).
Several things I really like about it. It's for one very good looking. It's best with 4-6 players.
If you're interested, a few pointers. Mainly, don't get attached to one country. I'd sometime build up a country only to steal its money or use their armies to sack someone else then let it rot. The other thing, you can win the game by riding someone else's coattails. If you see someone else successfully build a country, buy into it.

In Wonderful World, Matthew Broderick's character Ben Singer may think he's fighting "the man," the soulless god of faceless corporations, but in reality he's his own worst enemy. With his folk music career behind him, having lost his family and his copywriting job, he may be down on his luck, but it's his inability to see the light at the end of the tunnel, even...

Is it more a case of:
A. You secretly like dancing but don't feel you're very good? (Which, following my logic above, is actually a good thing -- trust me.)
or
B. You really don't like dancing no matter how good or bad you feel you are at it. (In which case, if you were honest with yourself, are there other things you really don't like even though society -- and Fran Lebowitz -- says you should?)
or
C: You like watching dancing but don't like to do it yourself. (in which case, SG has a group for that.)
