After the Emmy nominations were announced recently, I decided to check out a couple shows.
First, Mad Men. I had watched it once before, but it seemed to be all about sex. And not in a Sex and the City kind of way where the real story was about relationships and life - and not really [...]

I love to give money to strangers…
Posted by Cat in July 28th 2008
Especially idiots. In fact, I love giving out money to people who gamble it away stupidly. Or better yet, whenever I see someone drunk or on drugs, I give some of my hard earned money to do with it as they please. Do you like doing this too? I thought so! I bet you love [...]
