C is for Cookie
Any cookie with a crunch is gross. Cookies should be soft, moist, and magically delicious. No need to dunk....— March 10, 2009 7:22 p.m.

Who could find Anna NS (it pains me to even type her entire name)attractive? That cartoonish stereotype of feminine form is achieved through plastic surgery and is the atypical form preferred by adolescent boys who adore comic books, old farts. and "gentlemen" like the PB millionaire (I refuse to capitalize his name). It is available in its live form to men with money, because no sane woman would do that to herself in order to attract weird men with bucks.— March 10, 2009 6:48 p.m.

That was not what I expected - thanks, Fred! I have a wonderful husband. I met him in an elevator, and it was, indeed, love at first sight. To this day, I cannot explain it, but this video came close!— March 9, 2009 9:31 a.m.
Die Doing What You Love -- And Criminals that Die Trying
Why wait until you're dying? Lots of heroes survive. You know, it's difficult to be philanthropic in Southern California, as most are busy just earning a living in order to afford being here. One day I just said "to hell with it". I can stay late at work and resent it, or I can go help out somewhere. Guess which one made me feel really happy? I don't care about money much anymore. Sure, it sucks not to have it, but I think about those that REALLY need it and it makes me look like a millionaire in comparison. I am not some do-gooder sitting on my pious throne, though. I really dislike that some need an event in order to give. Why must I read in Burl Stiff's column about all the money being wasted on fois gras when it can just go to the cause? And who gives a damn about who made whose dress? Uh-oh, gettin' bitter. Gotta go.— March 9, 2009 8:51 a.m.

Whaa..ghaa...huhhh....WTF!??!? I am speechless. As usual, you go all logical when you sense us getting the upper hand. And you drag out the poor disabled guys as proof? Come on! I have to gather my wits about me and look at this Fisher clip. I hope I have the stomach for it.— March 9, 2009 8:28 a.m.

Die Doing What You Love -- And Criminals that Die Trying
"Screw old age. Hallucinogenics, sleeping pills and alcohol in a gorgeous $5000 a night hotel suite in some exotic locale." Love the "anti"dote - to old age!! I'll take a trip to Fiji when I'm 90, armed with LSD, ludes and vodka. JB - thanks again for your donation to the SD Humane Society. I turned in your pledge during a sponsor match, so Ralphs doubled it. The telethon is still going on, so for anyone who loves animals and wants to help out, tune in to Channel 8 and give the Humane Society a call.— March 8, 2009 3:15 p.m.

That's because everyone died before they turned 40 thousands of years ago! They had to breed to proliferate the human race. To be leering at teenage girls when you are an old guy now just makes no sense, because as a male your breeding days are over as well. Sure, you have the occasional old fart knocking up the young chick (Mick Jagger) but for the most part it is just an excuse men have been tossing around for years in order to get away with looking at girls who are young and pretty. Don't think women don't do the same thing. We just are not so obvious about it. And if men think that only men want to breed with younger girls, pulleeze! Why do so many older women have relationships with younger men nowadays? Because it is becoming more socially acceptable. Not because of some "biological" response. Although, when I think about it, hot, ripped, young guy vs. older, balding, paunchy middle-aged guy? Mmmmm, you guys might be on to something.....— March 8, 2009 3:02 p.m.

and the women they like always go after the "bad boys" - that's because they like young girls. Women typically get over that "bad boy" thing as they get a little more mature. Most women in their 20's don't want an older, boring guy, but most older, boring guys want a hot, twenty-something girl!! And she has to be "a nice girl" as well.— March 7, 2009 3:26 p.m.

True, JulieParrots. Money tends to bring bigger problems than it solves. I have a friend that moved to Oklahoma with her husband and bought a small farm. They just birthed their first calf, and she sent pictures of her riding a tractor. She loves "the simple life". I just wanted to make a point that women don't need to marry rich to be happy. Most that do are miserable puppets that have no say in their lives because they are too addicted to the lifestyle. "Miss Right doesn´t smoke, drink or do drugs or have children of her own." Children of her own? That's like saying that any children she ever has with him are his. What an a**hat!— March 7, 2009 8:01 a.m.
