It's almost impossible to think of a day when Facebook won't be part of our lives. And yet, like everything else, it probably has a life span and eventually will reach an end, a day when it's no longer current, or interesting or useful. Or it's too abusive. And something else will take its place. . . .

The concept of polyamory as depicted on Showtime is a wonder to behold. What is polyamory? It's being in love or romantically involved with more than one person, with the agreement of all parties. Conceptually, it's about more than sex. It's about love. And Showtime got in on the game with a . . .

If you're around my age you remember those "Calgon, take me away!" TV ads. Yes, that is a live link. But how often have I wished something could transport me away from the horrors of the world today? You, too, probably. So here's a beach reading list full of excellent distractions to take you away . . .

I'm not even sure he understands what New Age means. But when he was told he had to have surgery that would mean a painful recovery, I . . .
Or, as I call it: Senior, Stoned and So Over It What happens when an 80-something year old woman tries weed for the first time? She's going to tell you about it below. Oh, and don't let her kid you: she ASKED for the edible. I did NOT suggest it. For the record, I think her exact words were "bring . . .
After the Golden Globes, I saw sporadic criticism of the movie, La La Land from people who didn't think the actors merited the award. "They couldn't sing or dance well." "The story was unrealistic."
