If it wasn't for your first sentence, I would be wondering which one was the boy and which one was the girl.

You got me on that one, I thought they were both women.

Taylor is a guy and proof that attractive people have an easier go at it. He initially got an internship with his current employer when he was working as a lifeguard at a resort in South Florida and a partner at a consulting firm asked him to entertain his 17-year old daughter. Once, when Taylor was looking through my dvd collection, he asked if Pollack was a comedy "because, you know, of all the jokes and everything." When Dallas (who is neither a dancer nor an escort) said she was attracted to his intelligence, I realized that this could be a good match.

Drinking caffeine in large amounts as coffee over a short period of time has been shown to raise blood sugar. Caffeine does this by enhancing the effect of two hormones (adrenaline and glucagon). These two hormones release stored sugar from the liver resulting in high blood sugar.

Which is odd because...Drinking more coffee may reduce the risk of developing the most common form of diabetes, a study found. Compared to non-coffee drinkers, men who drank more than six eight-ounce cups of caffeinated coffee per day lowered their risk of type 2 diabetes by about half, and women reduced their risk by nearly 30 percent, according to the study in Tuesday's issue of Annals of Internal Medicine.

I thought it was weird that this was on the news on the same day that I heard about the caffeine/sugar link for the first time.

OK, I know this is Wonking to the nth degree, but I just had to chime in so that everyone could appreciate the fact that one of the guys from Sha Na Na was in my class in law school.

(I know you're all envious, but, really, get a hold of yourselves...)

Jocko? Screamin' Scott? Bowser? Did he regale you with tales of opening for Hendrix at Woodstock?

It took me a second to get this, but it's definitely a classic that bears repeating!

Just because he finds shitty pop art/anti-art and alcoholism funny doesn't make him dumb.

You said that women generally don't shop out of their league, and I'm saying that that's exactly the kind of out-of-their-league shopping that they do. Remember back when you were younger, say under 30. Back in the 80's, when you went to a club with your Jordache jeans on and bopped to Oingo Boingo, are you telling me that there weren't a bunch of hot little floozies who worked at Spencer's Gift going after the bankers and stockbrokers?

Your logic chain called- it said to stop adding links that dont belong. I said women dont usually shop out of their league. I didnt say that dumb uneduacated women often shop for rich genius types (or whateve ryou said I said). Please pay attentino.

We didn't wear Jordache jeans. We wore Guess pegged jeans with the zippers at the ankles tucked into our EG socks, with our Reebok hightops and neon colored Firenze sweaters.

And the bankers and the stockbrokers only got laid if they had coke...

and mostly working at Spencer's Gift disqualifies you for dating anyone over the age of, say, 16...

I hope "we" means you and RP and the rest of the gang from the Land of Buttafuoco because not only would I never have been caught dead in a pair of Reeboks, high top, black, or whatever (how Masshole!) I mocked those that wore them as "cheapies" (my sister's term that she invented). really just the dressdown version of capezios.

I would keep trying to explain my point, but it's just getting me hot arguing with you. What time are you coming over tonight?

Congratulations, Bety and Conde.

My two cents on the croc guy: lousy parent, but a great pet owner. He can dangle his appetizers over my pen any time.

Speaking of which, Bobby Hatfield (the Righteous Brother) died of an apparent cocaine-related death.

There has to be "You've lost that lovin' feeling" joke in there somewhere.

We had a stripper that no one knew was a stripper. Until someone found out and 20 guys showed up at the club. She started bawling and ran off the stage.

I gotta know: Was the Bloodhound Gang on the money? {Spree: lyrics site.}

Very true. They would have looked oh-so-out-of-place in the tent, next to the Birks, the pancho, the veggie sandwiches, the hash brownies, the hemp blanket, the "Miracle" cardboard sign and the "1245 days since last Dark Star" banner.
