Hey Guys! By the time you read this, I’ll probably be knee-deep in diapers and baby care reference books, but hopefully you’ll be just about ready to stop pretending to work and procrastinate on this instead. 1. I know this fraud story is supposed to make me hate “artist” Thomas Kinkade more, but … if [...]

It’s been an epic week to be a guest editor: Star Wars, LOTR, 4th of July Embarrassments, and Baby Betty was born! A truly momentous week for FaN. HELLO FRIDAY re: Fierce OR Nerdy, in which slpc asked us to choose between Cupcakes and Brownies. AlysiaNichole: In my opinion, blondies are simply fat cookies cut [...]

Kudos to Keldoo for at least guessing the correct artist yesterday — Mary J. Blige. And she came SO close to getting the title, “Be Without You.” I would have totally given her the full point, but of course ETC had to chime in and say we had to split it. Ernessa, don’t you have [...]

My first thought would be, “Hey, nerd boys, do you actually know women intimately [...]

As a public health professional in training, to me the practice of chowing on mayo on a hot day is akin to eating from a petri dish of [...]

Words cannot express the joy I felt when BabySmiling guessed correctly that yesterday’s lyric was from Coal Miner’s Daughter by Loretta Lynn. We’ve tied things up. Now let’s sweep the next two days and keep Ernessa from winning the week. That’s the goal, people. I believe in us. From Ernessa:  Okay, Black Artist Thursday, and [...]

What, you thought just b/c I’m on maternity leave, I would let a week go by without a Star Wars reference? Well, just for underestimating me, you’re gonna get TWO. Come back at 2:30 for the other one, and right now enjoy, Donny and Marie Osmond plus Redd Foxx in “Star Wars – The Musical.” [...]
