The "mommy not moving" blurb kind of kills the mood, unfortunately. :(

This one was up earlier in the week, and while reading it and chuckling, I thought, "I bet Ann Althouse would have something good to say about this."

"Area Woman Didn't Say That, You Said That" is my favorite, right behind "Women Now Liberated By Everything A Woman Does."

I went to that link and just got completely fascinated by the Corona parrot. My favorite web ad ever, and I usually hate when the advertising blocks the text.

Love the article too. Perfect.
