When even that failed, I went back to blogging. You can also catch my musings [...]

She very resourceful and knowledgeable in multiple fields. Here is a good example of her creativity-- [...]
Above is the new President of the US of A . Behind him is the Man of Steel . To US citizens, I hope you voted. I don't give a fuck who you voted for, but if you did. There are millions of people who are still without that honor, so we should take advantage of it like a drunken male/female whore at your friend's booze-filled party. To non-US citizens, uhh, sorry. I don't think I've discussed the new url yet. [...]
