RIP RomComs
The world bid farewell to a pretty fantastic lady yesterday. Nora Ephron, writer and filmmaker, was the brains behind great films like “Sleepless in Seattle” and “When Harry Met Sally.” It’s the latter, in which two slightly neurotic virtual strangers piled into a car in Chicago and drove halfway across the country together, that I have the … Continue reading »

You know, the one that … Continue reading »

Ok, that’s an exaggeration but I’m totally team chotch when the situation calls for it… like sufferage or paying cover at bars. There’s this commercial. It’s for Folger’s … or as I … Continue reading »
