Thought this one up the other day: Menopause means never having to say, “Is it cold in here?” (Actually, it’s perimenopause. I have to have no cyle for 12 months to be in full-blown menopause. And may I say: Not. … Continue reading

My snarky briefs, not yours
Biased AP headline of the month: Parents say Israel abandoned son held in Gaza. Apparently, the headline was too long. So instead of writing, say, “Parents say Israel abandoned soldier abducted by Hamas,” we have the pap above, which does … Continue reading
