Welcome to Hiroshima
Mary Jo Salter is what you first see, stepping off the train: a billboard brought to you in living English by Toshiba Electric. While a channel silent in the TV of the brain projects those flickering re-runs of a cloud that brims its risen columnful like beer and, spilling over, hangs its foamy head, you feel a thirst for history: what year it started to be safe to breathe the air, and...

Why is it called a flea market?
“This is a jocular term for an open-air or street market for mainly secondhand merchandise, which would be the type of items that might be infested with fleas. The first flea markets were in Paris and they were called marché aux puces which translates to ‘market with fleas’. Flea market first appeared in English in 1922 as a translation of the French market’s name. ...

I’m sick and TIRED of people telling me what to do, particularly if you ain’t my mommy or daddy. What kind of nonsense is this? I know such idiocy has been in the works for some time now, but if there...

In memory of the recent suicides due to gay abuse,...
This is a reminder, or update for those who don’t know, that due to the recent epidemic of suicides and deaths sweeping homosexuals across our nation, tomorrow is Wear Purple Day to honor the many lives lost at an all too young age due to the intolerance of homosexuality by some very insecure cowards in this world.
Just as millions of people wear pink ribbons in honor of breast cancer...

Sooo, a lot of people have gone hyphy over this chick’s song. I really love and respect Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, but I think this whole, erm, thing, for lack of a better word, is kind of weird. The song is likely really fun for kids her age, and she’s really cute and what not, but I just think it’s a weird song and she’s acting too wayyy too big for her britches and...

Because of you, in gardens of blossoming flowers I ache from the perfumes of spring. I have forgotten your face, I no longer remember your hands; how did your lips feel on mine? Because of you, I love the white statues drowsing in the parks, the white statues that have neither voice nor sight. I have forgotten your voice, your happy voice; I have forgotten ...

I could not be happier for these folks. Thank GOD they made it out okay. I don’t even what to begin to imagine the stress and fear that must’ve mounted within them for the last little over two months that they have been stuck in that mine, just awaiting death in what they assumed to be their soon-to-be coffin. YIKES!

Girls are like apples on trees
Girls are like apples on trees. The best ones are at the top of the tree. The boys don’t want to reach for the good ones because they are afraid of falling and getting hurt. Instead, they just get the rotten apples from the ground that aren’t as good, but easy. So the apples at the top think something is wrong with them, when in reality, they’re amazing. They just have...
