Have you had your daily allowance of crazy today? If not, here’s a little something to meet your needs — and then some. It’s a clip of Pat Robertson on The 700 Club explaining why liberals are so intent on killing babies: apparently, it’s all part of a vast evil lesbian conspiracy. The clip was […]

A teen Carrie Bradshaw is back in Candace Bushnell’s second Y.A. novel, “Summer and the City.” Obese teens may not have more sex, but the sex they do have is riskier (according to one survey). HBO’s “Game of Thrones”: Feminist or not? A “Don’t […]

Be honest, how many times have you actually massaged your partner for longer than a few minutes of shoulder squeezing in front of the TV, or a half-hearted swish over their back with your palms? Anything more […]
