It is a fact of life that women are more physically able to have children at a younger age - hence the biological clock talk. However, today's women are less likely to fall into the role of Donna Reed and take on the homemaker tasks in their early 20s. Instead young ladies are out getting degrees, making a name for themselves in the corporate world and taking the time to enjoy a jaunt or two around...

I like it hot. Whether I'm dining on Indian, Thai or Italian, I tend to veer toward something with a little zip. Garam masala, a #9 Pad Thai or puttanesca - I like to dine on something with some kick. Thankfully, the Junior League of Cincinnati's latest cookbook is nothing short of flavorful. Confession: I developed and designed Cincinnati Seasoned for the JLC. The development was a 18 month labor...

Steven Rigolosi (Guest Blogger) As society gets more complicated and technology opens up new frontiers, nothing can be taken for granted any longer. Truths seen as self-evident by previous generations come under fire, new knowledge is created, and definitions are expanded. Among the concepts being expanded are constructs like gender and sexuality. (For the record, The Penguin Dictionary of Sociology...

Who’s dressing up for Halloween? In past years I’ve been a dead stewardess, handed out candy dressed as the Ghost of Donna Reed (white makeup, early sixties flip hairdo, Salvation Army polyester dress, and an empty casserole dish) and joined the Husband as a member of the Dead Altar Boys (the world’s only All Ghoul [...]

Just watched Harold and Maude again, classic film. Bud Cort as Harold with his banjo dancing along the California cliffs made me think about my favorite dance scenes in movies (exluding musicals). For your consideration: 1. Some Like It Hot - Jack Lemon in drag and Joe E. Brown, as funny as it gets. Watch it and try not to laugh. 2. Witness - Harrison Ford and Kelly McGillis dancing and romancing to...

Every Tuesday I post five questions relating to television or film, and the first person who sends me the correct answers wins the highly coveted Auntie Mame Award (for excellence in trivia). Thirty-five years ago tomorrow on October 28, 1974, Rhoda Morgenstern married Joe Gerard in a special hour-long episode of Rhoda that was watched by more than 50 million people. So in honor of this groovy 1970s...

Should you gently sift through your memories of early summer, you might recall some talk about a politician and his affair with a woman from South America. I never wrote about it, although the particulars of that episode were not devoid of humor-- largely unintended, to be sure, but then politicians as a class are remarkable asses, approaching frighteningly close to perfect incompetence and total blindness...

Here's a relatively new blog to take the mickey out of those councillors including myself (surely not!?) who take themselves a little too seriously at times. It is called Glum Councillors and... ".....will doggedly collate images of councillors looking glum whilst pointing at holes in the road, wearing hard hats or presenting oversized cheques. Lets celebrate the work of our local elected representatives!"...

I had not planned to comment on the ongoing Roman Polanski mess. That's because for me, the story was over long ago. The man raped a 13 year-old girl. He even pled guilty to it in court. The fact that he then ran and avoided justice for many years changes nothing. He is a rapist and probably a pedophile. But then a few idiots in Hollywood signed a letter supporting Polanski and asking for his release....

During his 20-year reign at Disney, Michael Eisner’s commitment to family values was viewed with suspicion by many. The worries apparently were well-founded. His animation studio, Tornante, has a new clay-animated cartoon on Nick at Nite called "Glenn Martin, DDS." Eisner and Nick at Nite executive Cyra Zarghami claim it’s a show for the entire family. Even TV critics –...
