The Hazards of Unawareness

Posted on November 5, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

Few things make you feel more like an oaf than bandaging your finger and then scraping your knuckle while putting away the pack of Band-Aids, requiring you to bandage another finger.

Are You Thinking What I’m Thinking, B2?

Posted on October 31, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

I called up my Aussie friend Suzanne Tuesday afternoon (Wednesday morning for her). I used two calling cards and we ended up talking for about an hour and twenty minutes. Not bad for our first vocal conversation in five months. I met her this summer on my trip to Europe…she was in my tour group….

Don’t Knock it Until You See an Episode

Posted on October 27, 2002February 25, 2022 by KZ

Okay, I admit, I love that show She Spies. It’s a series about three beautiful female ex-convicts gone good who now work for a clandestine secret organization trying to rid the world of evildoers. The show’s a farce, and it’s brilliant. It’s everything that VIP wasn’t, and yet the female leads are still really hot….

I Don’t Mean to Brag, But…

Sometimes I can be pretty damn charming when I’m not even trying. Today is national self-affirmation day. Yay me.

On Casting the First Stone

Posted on October 23, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

I don’t believe in Hell, but I’d sure like to believe in a kind of public Purgatory in which all of the deceased assholes of the world are set on display in medieval stocks. On our way to Heaven, all of us decent folk would get the chance to walk by and kick each of…

Like, That’s So High School

Posted on October 21, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

Why do females feel the need to play so many games? I wish I were the type that could just turn away, say “screw it,” and mean it. But I’m not, and this so-called friend of mine should know that….whoever she is. This chick and her friend “Sarah” should also be reminded that mind games…

Movie Titles

Posted on October 18, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

I admit, I feel giddy every time I’m watching a movie and one of the characters says the title of the film. When Clint Eastwood’s doctor told him that she’d need to run his blood work, I smiled to myself. When Tom Cruise was told to look for the minority report, I wanted to stand…

The Lighter Side of International Affairs

Posted on October 16, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

Am I the only one that pictures a sassy blond woman every time I read a news article that refers to Ariel Sharon as simply “Sharon?”

Good Morning Heartache

Posted on October 14, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

Supposedly you dream every time you fall asleep. That’s a shame, since I never seem to remember my dreams when I wake up. Last night, though, I dreamed something that was worth remembering. I didn’t dream of giants and towering beanstalks, nor of witches and scores of little people who break out into spontaneous fits…

And Speaking of Obesity…

Posted on October 11, 2002February 23, 2022 by KZ

According to a recent study, roughly a third of all Americans are obese. That’s really good to know…too bad that story first broke like 20 years ago. It’s become something of a cliché now for news publications and news broadcasters to wag their admonishing finger at the fat people of America. If you watch the…

That's the way today changes history. All contemporaries do not inhabit the same time. The past is always changing, but few realize it.~Frank HerbertSource: God Emperor of Dune
