Have the J-Fleck rumors run that dry? And Hillary too?

But, come on, you know there must be some great tales of Katie Couric's debauchery at UVa.

There's an anal sex joke to be made here, but it would be disrespectful to America's sweetheart and colon health crusader.

According to this site - http://www.halls.md/chart/women-height-w.htm -

"The average female American womens height is 163 to164 cm,
which is approximately 64.2 to 64.6 inches,

which is approximately 5 foot - 5 inches tall. (for white females*)."

Oddly they don't seem to make it easy to determine the overall average (including those pesky other races). Not sure why. Also, wouldn't 64.something inches be 5 foot 4 (and something)? I'm no math whiz, but something seems sketchy about those conversions.

If I heard a cut on the radio, or in a record store, or someone whose taste I know is comparable to mine said "hey, you should check this guy out," then I might buy the disc. But it wouldn't have anything to do with the fact that he was on a tv show.

I'm assuming barely's mother didn't buy it because he was on the show. I'm assuming she bought it because she heard him perform and liked his voice. The only connection with the show would be that that is where she heard him sing.

It just seemed to me like you were one of those "he doesn't deserve the spotlight because he won that show" types. While I think he is a shitty singer (don't like his boring ballads), I wouldn't avoid his album if I liked his songs simply because he was on the show. That's all.

And I'll help you reach those sausages if you ask nicely.

How about something like, "in honor of your birthday, I'd like to give you the greatest gift a person can give to another: the gift of honesty."

The chart goes on to suggest that 64.2 to 64.6 inches is shorter for Asian females and taller for black and Hispanic females.

As opposed to the average male American woman's height?

Dammit. I was almost nearly "average height" until this stupid chart. Time to go out and get some seriously slutty spike heels.

You should know me better than that. Now, would you please hand me that bratwurst?

And Timmy also sez, what, inches are different for Asians and blacks and hispanics? Isn't that illegal in California?

I thought the greatest gift was a blow job. Or maybe prosciutto.

They've been dating not so long (a couple of months?) and she's just not all that into him. Not unlike the situation presented here recently by another enquiring mind, the dude's birthday is this weekend and she had made plans to cook him birthday dinner. She's prepared to go through with this (the dinner thing), but thinks it's probably better to just call it off beforehand.

The question... (she acknowledges how junior-high-school this is, but whatever -- I told her I knew the perfect place to get the answer to junior-high-type questions) is, what's her "lead-in"? Just launch into "I don't want to date anymore?"

Board, don't fail me now!!!

Oh my God, I think I'm dating your friend! My birthday is this weekend! Oh boy, I'm good at this.

First:

Sweetheart, let's talk.

About what? Well, I don't see this going anywhere.

Why? Because I honestly don't feel as strongly as I should, and its not something I can help. Sorry, really.

Don't worry, I've wanted her to do this for some time, so its all cool.

Wow, whudda thunk it.

Hello

no. it was a tribute CD "Star Search Winners Sing the Hits of the Buzzcocks- SS Singers Going Steady."
besides ruining the table it rocked.
Justin Timberlake and Brittany Spears do a version of "Why Can't I Touch It" that's better than the original. But why they let Ed McMahon do "Orgasm Addict" I do not know.

Prosciutto with melons makes a lovely appetizer.
