Links You Must See to Believe

May 17, 2008

I completely admit to spending my entire day online. Most of my time is spent drumming up business for Bloggy Giveaways and writing how-to-blog posts for Blogging Basics 101. I also spend a lot of time reading news online. Since I don’t watch much TV and I’m already plugged in to my computer, I may [...]

Seriously. You Need to Do This.

May 16, 2008

I remember my mother telling me that when she was a little girl people used to burn the clothes of cancer victims so others wouldn’t "catch" it. These days we see the absurdity of that.

Parimps and Their Prostitots

April 3, 2008

On one side we have the pre-tweens trying to attack their teacher. On the other side we have the mothers giving their 8yo daughters a bikini wax. Note to parents: Start parenting and stop trying to be your kid’s friend–you are messing them up big time. Quit trying to re-live your glory days through your [...]

I’m at 5 Minutes for Mom Today

April 3, 2008

In January the funny, hip gals at 5 Minutes for Mom approached me and asked if I’d like to do a monthly column for them on blogging. I’m all about sharing the wealth of knowledge I keep in my head. (Little do they know it’s mostly movie quotes.) This month I’m answering a few blogging [...]
