Sooooo…. yes, I know I put up the photographic evidence yesterday, but my book LOVE, MOM: POIGNANT, GOOFY, BRILLIANT MESSAGES FROM HOME really, truly is out! And I’m not just saying this because I, uh, wrote it—the book really is the perfect Mother’s Day gift. Or perfect gift for your friend’s bathroom. Or perfect thing to buy if you just want to support Jessica and me!
You can buy it on...
What price glory?

When I tried to speak into my newfangled Twitter device today, the feedback squeal nearly deafened me.
I probably won’t be trying that again any time soon.

Gabe Delahaye’s “History of Fake Rap” series alights on Cop Rock, the 1990 head-scratcher from Steve Bochco. You’ll find the relevant hip hop segment here; it was written by Randy Newman, who also wrote and performed the show’s title song, which, well, the less said about the better. Watch it once and then pretend it never happened. Like I imagine everyone...

How do you learn to trust people when for the past almost 25 years you’ve been screwed over and let down time and time and time again?
Huh. Y’know—and I mean this in a loving, nonjudgmental way, and as empathetically as possible, my dear—I think if someone sees this as a trend in their life, well, it’s like any other situation where you find yourself...

The rhetoric grew so heated yesterday that Sen. Charles E. Grassley (R-Iowa) suggested in a radio interview that AIG executives ought to “follow the Japanese model … resign, or go commit suicide.” An aide later explained he does not actually want executives to kill themselves.
Later that day, the same aide explained to Grassley’s son that his father doesn’t...

These talkers don’t talk, they walk up and smile for a long time, basking in the glow of their own privilege and your low position on the totem pole. This silent shit-eating grin tells you that they know that you’re not going to like what they’re going to tell you or ask of you and that this tickles them in some way.

“The American people remain on his side, but he has to be careful that the gathering judgment of the Bigs doesn’t trickle down to the rest of us.”
I can understand the temptation for pundits to prewrite their “tide has turned against Obama” pieces, because they know they’ll need to pen that political chapter soon, no matter what happens. It’s already in the...
