In honor of Mother’s Day, I would like to share some of the many
lessons I have learned from my wonderful mother. Although my mother is
a remarkable and accomplished woman, I had no idea of this as a child.

Hearing about the upcoming divorce of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Anniston upset me far more than I ever would have guessed.

Last
week I had the interesting experience of attending two red carpet
events in Los Angeles. I was at the first event as a guest and the
second as one of the hosts. The experience gave me a lot of insight
into the workings of Hollywood. First of all, let me make it clear that

Thank God the elections are over and we can get back to an issue

As the clock ticks closer towards noon, my heart fills with dread, for the whore is coming. Taking a deep, cleansing breath, I try to let the negative energy out of my body.
