What happened to common sense?

Here's an interesting excerpt from Girls Gone Mild, a book about how it's not helping girls and women to cram it down their throats that being a slut is super cool.

It's very disturbing to me that people have to write books about this. You should read the excerpt. The author discusses a lot of really crazy sounding shit that's going down right now.

For example, apparently there's a fancy new term, PSD, which stands for "pre-sex discussion". As in, you should at least have some conversations with a person before you have sex with them.

Maybe I'm glad I grew up in tiny towns in PA and OH and am not about 10 years younger right now. It sounds like a totally ridiculous message everyone is getting now, in some cases even from parents.

And apparently the author of this book got death threats. All she seems to be saying is there's nothing wrong with you if you don't want to have casual sex.

Add this to the list of things that are really fucked up about the world today.

Why must I live in a world with High School Musical?

Seriously, can someone explain that to me? Why is it such a phenomenon? And now there's a stage show. High School Musical: The Musical?

Thank God I don't have a 9 year old daughter I'd have to lose all respect for if she liked this crapola.

Me with Hester Willa

Here I am this past weekend visiting with Hester at her house. Look what a big girl she is getting to be! We had lots of fun even though she tried to rip my hair out at the roots a few times. Maybe those photos will come later.

Really?

Thanks, very nice of you.

First, check my

Amazon.com wishlist

and there's no need to worry that I already have it or won't use it.

Tip: Check around for better pricing. Amazon's pricing is usually good, but not always the best available.

A quick Froogle search can't hurt.
