quote of the day, y'all

At a BU Q&A with Susan Sarandon last week, this question was posed:

Is Sarah Palin a feminist?

I don’t understand how anyone can claim that she’s a feminist. Is it because she’s cute and feisty and spunky? Is it because she carries a gun and shoots animals from a helicopter? That’s not feminism — that’s the worst aspect of violent male behavior. I think she completely compromises the idea of feminism. And I think it’s a cheap shot to compare her to Hillary Clinton. They don’t have anything in common.

I mean, when you get a woman in government, you want the right woman. You don’t want just any vagina!

read this. since no one else is covering it

thank god for k.p. (and boom boom, i guess). at least she's covering the gas-crisis-that-wasn't. check it out. and report back.

Peanut Butter... and Jelly

for me, it's hard to eat potato chips without craving a juicy orange after... analogy meaning, I like my salty and sweet together.

In the online video world, I guess my equivalent would be combining a debate on taking the veil on blogging heads tv with (what else?) Australia's Next Top Model on youtube. So, here's a taste of viewing, kim-style:




happy watching!

pork and nail polish. together. forever.

you know you can't help yourself. click on the photo to learn why you, as a woman, need both pork and nail polish. please. (it's stuff like this that makes me love salon.com. and stuff like this that makes me cry a little).

only a few more days

to see the BU mfa art exhibit. and it's free. plus there are paintings of naked women, which supposedly is revolutionary. I guess the TV reporters never heard of this work of art. i heard it also caused quite a stir in its day...
