NATIONAL
SINGLES WEEK. Well, this is a fine how-do-you-do. Found out about this
a week late, on account of I've been so busy with my career. Well, there you
go.
MARRIAGE HEALTH MONTH. Oh. While I'm on the subject, it seems that it's
also Marriage Health Month. I guess the folks who released American
Beauty people didn't know that either. After you see it, click here.
"THIS
SEASON, THERE'S STILL A REAL FOCUS ON THE NECK." BG's fave rave vampire
slayer has traded in her cross necklace for Austrian crystal and silver beads
on "illusion wire." Buffycize by visiting jewelry designer Peggy
Li. PS: Did anyone, anyone tape last Tuesday's episode? I was working
late and spaced. See what I mean?
THE
MALE BODY. In what the Times has "a called grand, often hilarious
Baedeker of beefcake and its discontents," Pulitzer nominee Susan Bordo
takes "A New Look at Men in Public and Private," dissecting icons
and images of masculinity such as "the lean, fit body that virtually everyone,
gay and straight, aspires to" (witness the recent pumping-up of concern
about G.I. Joe envy)." Now do you guys know how we feel? (For more
about what men think about what they're accused of thinking with, click
here.)
STIFFED.
Susan Faludi's latest: Men and the feminists who feel their pain.
DOUBLE TALL MOCHA SKIM CHAI T-1. San Francisco's new uber-cyber-Starbucks
is: Circadia, where high-octane cuppas meets high-speed connections -- along
with literature readings and live music. Mark my words: will inspire the locus
of the next "Two Guys, a Girl, and Cyberspace."
MYHELPDESK.COM.
It's no house call from the Geek
Squad, but it does provide access to support, boards, and other tech solutions.
(If your e-lover hasn't "called," that's still a question for
me.)
THE
DIXIE CHICKS. Best
vocal group! Amazing chops, excellent hair. I just good ol'-fashioned adore
them.
