Perhaps a subscription to Cosmo? Nah, I'll pass...
So, this is how it’s going to be. Correction — this is clearly how it still is.
I’ll preface everything by saying that I’m an early-life convert to the Democratic Party, but this post has absolutely nothing to do with politics except for the person in question. This is a male-female thing.
I consider myself an avid follower of all things political: local, state and...
This, sir, is not a rum & Coke
This past weekend, I had the great fortune of going out for a girls’ night with a wonderful friend. It’s the first time that either one of us had really gone out for a night on the town in a long, long while.

$1?
There have been several times in my adult life when I’ve been asked to pony up $1 to pay for something. Most of the time it’s been pretty funny — the first time I paid taxes as an employed person, I owed the feds $1.

My morning coffee will occasionally run me a...
