Howard Zinn was my kind of guy: a humanitarian activist historian. He changed the way we look at history—not from a prospective of the establishment, but through the eyes of those who struggled against it. He was anti-war and pro-people—the average kind, not the wealthy and powerful. He railed against the dark side of capitalism—the [...]
I never thought I would be singing that tune—being that I love to rag on France (don’t get me started on the eating of ortolans!). But I am SO PLEASED the French have taken a stand against something that has rankled me for years: the dreaded burqa. Almost nothing gets me more riled than seeing [...]

A year ago I completed my Juliana Jewelry collection (after several years collecting) by purchasing a brooch and matching earrings that were the color of what I called “Obama Blue.” I remember telling Debrah (the Seller from RubyLane.com, who was from Canada) that I was so excited for the regime change with a new leader [...]
Dear Martha: Girlfriend to girlfriend: You blew it. Not that I wanted you to win the election against that other guy, the Republican. Not with the Democrats’ totally boneheaded joke of a Health Care SO NOT Reform legislation looming on the horizon. But I like to see women succeed in any professional endeavor they undertake [...]
