So, there's going to be a lot less wink, wink, nudge, nudge when it comes to purchasing certain devices formerly known as "novelty items" around here.

Read the AP report here.

Fun with Glamour

11:35 AM Wed, Sep 05, 2007 |
Pam Harris

So, Ugly Betty's America Ferrera is Glamour's latest cover girl -- you know, the "curvy" or "nontraditional" beauty that they can tout as showcasing something different. (Even if the styling seems to be trying hard to make her look like every other skinny Hollywood star out there. Remember Queen Latifah all smoothed out from the Sept issue?)

I haven't read the issue yet, but I did enjoy a hilarious translation of the ...



Miss New Jersey isn't exactly a girl gone wild

2:01 PM Fri, Jul 13, 2007 |
Pam Harris

So I checked out the pics released by Miss New Jersey (and good for her for not giving in to the blackmail attempt) and found them less than shocking. Somewhat tacky in a few cases, and something best kept around friends, sure, but certainly not worth all the hoo-hah this woman has been put through.

Thank goodness I have no aspirations to the crown. These blackmail photos mostly reminded me of pics from my college days, frankly. I'll ...



Fashion line to benefit single moms

Single moms: Ever think you’re alone in the world? That you’re not only lacking help, but you’re missing out on the respect you deserve?

Well, a news release crossed my desk that caught my attention. I can’t do a story on it, because actress and designer Christina Fulton is in Los Angeles, but I can certainly pass it along to you, our Web viewers.

Christina launched an accessory and clothing line that allows women to proudly w...



Mark Cuban sniffs at controversy

What is that Mark Cuban doing now? Well Grandma, he's pretending to
snort cocaine, but it's actually performance art. You know … irony.

For out-of-context, cold-blooded glimpses at the lives of celebrities,
the sang doesn't get any more froid than on the gossip
site TMZ.com.

While approaching a gaggle of photographers at the LA hot...



Release your inner Wonder Woman

Wow. Wonder Woman-style bracelets, that's a bold and funky accessory.

I probably wouldn't have the nerve to wear something like that. But it would be ...



Oh joy - even more Girls Gone Wild

3:37 PM Tue, Apr 03, 2007 |
Pam Harris

Blogger MamaPop shares her personal disgust at the news that the man who brought us the Girls Gone Wild video phenom is now expanding his oh-so-tasteful product line to include restaurants and clothing. Not clothing I'm going to be encouraging my own girls to wear, here's betting.

Ouch!

jackie.jpg I hope you all had a nice weekend.

Mine was a little crazy.

On Sunday, I was sitting outside enjoying our lovely weather and reading (one of my favorite pastimes). I was deeply engrossed in my book, which happens to be about ghosts!

Suddenly, something flew by my face. Without thinking I reached up, while ...



One card to rule them all

2:33 PM Mon, Mar 12, 2007 |
Pam Harris

With every other store in town pushing its loyalty/reward card, it doesn't take long to get overwhelmed by card clutter.

So I was intrigued when a friend pointed me to a do-it-yourself site where you can input various cards' barcode numbers in order to print out a single card accepted most anywhere. Laminate that bad boy and you should be good to go.

Alas, I don't even have the ti...



All she wants to do is dance

jackie.jpgI hope you are enjoying our new website.

Look around, there is so much great information here!

For the last week or so I have been working on two Irish dancing stories. I am really excited about this.

Once upon a time, when I was a wee lass, I took Irish step dancing classes. To be honest I wasn’t crazy abo...
