"So You Think You Can Dance?"
Finale time…can you handle this? Please excuse poor sentence structure, bad spelling, etc. It’s pretty late, and I’m pretty tired. Though, as Nigel Lythgoe would put it, “No one cares if you’re tired.” (More about that comment later.) I still can’t believe Courtney’s up in the mix. This week, everyone dances with everyone. It’s a dance orgy, if [...]
Well, we’re at the eight week mark, gang! Typically when a host or a judge says, “This is our best season, yet” I scoff, because they always say that.

Review of Fifty Shades of Grey
A couple of weeks ago, my husband asked me if I had heard of the book, Fifty Shades of Grey. I hadn’t. I must have had my head stuck in the sand, because apparently, it’s the greatest thing since “sliced bread.” Rated Five Stars by hundreds of readers, I was intrigued by its popularity. After [...]
