QOTD: Are You A Nervous Flyer?

Your friends want to take a week-long vacation to somewhere warm, with a beach and sand and drinks with frilly umbrellas.

You tell your friends that the trip sounds like fun, and then you think, oh, that means getting on a plane. Suddenly you remember you agreed to take care of Aunt Greta’s Weimariner that week, and you tell your friends, so sorry, you can’t go.

Crasstonians, do you get on a commercial flight, even though the very idea fills you with dread? Do you board the plane, plop yourself down and get your drink on while you hit on the stranger sharing your armrest? Or do you prefer to travel by car or bus or train rather than ascending to the troposphere? Continue reading

Shaking Your Money Maker for a Degree

Oh, Doctor! It happens to all of us. Your doctor retires or moves to another state, or they’re no longer covered by your insurance, should you be so lucky to have health insurance.

Resigned to finding a new medical provider, you look through the directory of who is in your plan, and you make an appointment with a new doctor. To your delight and surprise, It’s Doctor McDreamy! Can you imagine?

Well, what if Doctor Hotpants told you how he paid off those crazy big student loans? What do you think he would say? Would you guess that he was making sexytimes for cash? Continue reading

Collected Santorum Dribblings: Volume Two

Hey there happy campers, it’s time for round two of The Santorum Slide, a panty-wrecking skidmark from the likely Republican nominee.

As Newton Leroy “Newt” Gingrich torpedoes his own campaign, and Willard Milton “Mittens” Romney throws his chance to be the Republican nominee down the well, it appears that Richard John Santorum is leaving a slick brown trail everywhere he goes.

Rick has been busy of late! As mentioned recently around here, Santorum’s SuperPac spent about five hundred thousand dollars to sponsor Tony Raines in Sunday’s race in Daytona. That’s a lot of adult diapers, Rick.

Of course Ricky can’t miss an opportunity for a pull quote, and here’s his slippery words for this event: “I like how Tony Raines turned some heads last weekend with his qualifying run and we’d like to keep turning heads too. I think we’re both looking for a win in the end.” Yep, everybody is sure Santorum wants a “win” in “the end.” Take that as you will. We will be turning our heads in any direction but Ricky’s.

Project Runway All Stars: Freak Flag

The United Nations. A place where over one hundred countries come together from around the world to trade recipes and animated cat gifs. Not unlike this very website.

This week, Ke$ha tells the sewtestants they can buy a random flag for a quarter from this table she has setup on the lawn of the United Nations building. Yes, Ke$ha is bringing back the yard sale, so get hip, kids. As always, there are spoilers. There will always be spoilers. So, click at your own risk! Continue reading

Collected Santorum Dribblings: Volume One

Welcome to a new and exciting feature: The Collected Santorum Dribblings.

Rick Santorum, after a greasy slide to the front of the race for the Republican Presidential nomination, is finally being paid some serious attention by the national press.

Is this a good thing? Maybe not for him, maybe not for his campaign, but it’s certainly hilarious to poke fun at the worst Republican public speaker since Dubya ran to his hidey hole a few years back.

Let’s aim to not only make this a fun pursuit, but an educational one as well — it’s our duty as citizens to find a place to absorb all the Santorum dribs and drabs, to help us create a coherent picture of this candidate, made of all the squits and squirts of Santorum we find every day.
