Her:  If you’re getting up early, don’t wake me up, okay?

Cynics Corner: Idiot

Chris Brown is an idiot.  You never hit a woman.

It’s much better to leave emotional bruises.  That’s something both of you can do as a couple.

Cynics Corner: You Know When You Know

WED LIVE! Should you jump rope?

Google is a clever little company.  One day, I’m sure it’ll be a big player on the world wide web.  It does great, fun things with its logo for various holidays and events and I regularly enjoy its work.  But today is not one of those days.  There’s a big problem with Google’s Valentine’s Day video.

Love Story: The Simple Energy of Marie

Marie came out of nowhere. She was just some artsy girl I knew and we were friendly. The fact that she was the prettiest girl I’d ever been friendly with didn’t matter. Because the little crush I had on Marie was harmless, more flirtatious and amusing than anything else.

Cynic’s Corner: History Isn’t Pretty

Saint Valentine. A man jailed, beaten and beheaded because he was a Roman priest marrying Christians, which was illegal. My word! I hate to think what would have happened if Saint V. tried to marry the gays. Make him Pope?

Cynics Corner: A Man & His Dog

I only want to be loved without the worry that one day it will surprisingly just end.  So I bought a dog.  I figure this way, I know without question that I’ve got 13 years before it dies and I’m alone again.
