a great, inspirational and enlightening read
I just finished the book, I Am The Central Park Jogger by Trisha Meili. I vaguely remember hearing about how a woman was viciously beaten, raped and left for dead in Central Park in the Spring of 1989. I was an 8th grader back then and paid little mind to the news, as my attentions …

chivalry isn’t dead…or is it?
the bailer So, this poor girl goes to a baseball game with her boyfriend and sitting in left field, tells him “Baby, I’m gonna get hit.” He assures her she won’t and that if a foul ball is hit into the seats, he’ll catch the ball. Sure enough, foul ball hit, foul ball flies into …
There shouldn’t be “accidents” anymore
There was a blind item on gawker.com today about a Hills star accidentally getting pregnant.
