If I had any power of concentration, scientific aptitude, and the ability to pronounce multisyllabic words, I might have considered being a scientific researcher. Knowing that I possess none of the above qualities I am content to read about what...

When I am on a roll, I have been known to get on the scale multiple times. That would be multiple times within 2 minutes, not multiple times over the course of the week. “Could that be?” I say aloud,...

"It was 20 years ago today" sang the Beatles, actually over 40 years ago. When also, I might add, Paul wondered if he'd still be loved "when he's 64." Which, Happy Birthday Paul, he turned this August. The summer of...

Not exactly mutterings. Full sentences commenting on something or other, but realizing, that there is no one there to hear what you just said. Except yourself, which, I suppose, must be good enough. Have you experienced this? Would you admit...

Do you read the women's sports pages? The New York Times refers to it as The Sunday Styles Section. Can you imagine that? Anyway, it's the Times' play by play of life in the fast lane. The ultimate scorecard is...

I looked, enthusiastically, to see what was possibly "new" that required an update of the 70's classic, "The Joy of Sex." Not much. Oh, sure, there was the necessary addition about Viagra, Hormone Replacement Therapy and seeking therapy for sexual...

Not. Had I been enlisted to navigate to find land, any land, we'd all still be wandering aimlessly in some large body of water somewhere. The upside would have been a more positive outcome for the Aztecs or the Indians...

I can't wait until next week to read the comments provoked by the modern love article Those aren't fighting words, dear. Let's start with the husband's declaration. "I don't love you anymore." While she felt "sucker punched" she determined that...

It seems to me that if it has taken most of us YEARS to witness the meltdown of our faces. Wouldn't you think that one hour seems like not enough time to devote to fix that issue. One minute of...

Not Oreos, Chips Ahoy or any of the Pepperidge Farm variety. The cookies I am referencing are those that live on your computer. And, just like those of us who might have to hide the chocolate, highly caloric variety and...
