There's something I find especially sexy about Lita Ford during the Runaways era. She's the one on the left in the picture above (followed by Joan Jett , Jackie Fox , Sandy West and Cherie Currie , for the curious and unaware). Oddly, I'm able to find very few pictures of her by herself from this era and none quite capture the quality as well as the group pictures. She looked, at that point, a lot...

Life is hard when you are a cryer. You have to bring extra Kleenex to movies. You have to be extra vigilant at weddings, graduations, and funerals that you don't look like Joan Jett in the rain. You have to contemplate whether to wear mascara. You have to endure condescending terms for your tendency to cry: "She's emotional." "She really feels things." "She's that way." You have to constantly explain...

Not sure what's up with SCEE this week, but the Store's update is non-existent. It's a big letdown given that last week's included a couple of decent demos. If you're itching for something to keep you entertained for a couple of minutes, your best bet is to hit up the US Store.

The moment Dino walked in, Carrie saw him look at her and do a double-take. She thought he was cute, too. But he was holding hands with another woman.
