What television show stands the test of time?

Three's Comany - No Doubt.

Who could ever forget the beloved, Jack Tripper?

Not I !!!

You have $100 to spend online in the next hour.  How are you going to spend it?

easy- either at amazon.com/ ebay or sephora. one hundred doesn't go very far so that sort of limits me, based on my designer tastes.

What will you remember most about this summer?

our first apt/home together, our first summer living together as a couple.

What celebrity do you most often get told you resemble? 
Submitted by Leets.  

 

I don't know. It's hard to pinpoint anyone since I have a fairly unique ethnicity which most do not guess, (part caucasian and part filipino)...In the past- I was told Christina Ricci, Asia Argento, Lead singer of Lush Miki, and more recently, Shalom Harlow. I can't think of anyone else at this time...   

What are five things that most people don't know about you? 
Submitted by mika.  

i am not a very private or hidden person- so there isn't much, but i'll try to come up with something here...

1- i am high energy but i crash easily.

2- i obsess over details, words and connections- i love puzzles but i enjoy making the pieces fit, more than anything else. i look for reason in things that don't make sense, i suppose. maybe it makes me feel more grounded or maybe it's just that mystery is seductive. whatever the case, i guess that i like to find meaning (or purpose) in everything surrounding me - even in the most unexplainable things.

3- i am complex therefore usually misunderstood. or so it seems..

4- i derive "life" or find vitality through passion.

5- inconsistencies drive me crazy. 

What clothing item do you wish could be banned?
Submitted by Mike E.

Crocs, no doubt. and women should NOT be allowed to wear clothing that is like three sizes smaller than their real size, where everything from their huge breasts to ass and privates are popping out, revealing everything. I think it shows that the person has a lack of respect for themselves as a woman and it makes me really sad and irritated.  Not only does it look low-class, disgusting, hoochie, and slutty, but it looks painfully uncomfortable to the wearer as well. It makes me cringe everytime.

What are three things you want to learn, and three things you can teach others to do? 
Submitted by bookishbiker.

3 things i'd love to learn:

1- how to be in control of my emotions/fears/anxiety, basically, how to "relax" and feel at peace

2- fashion merchandizing, fashion photography editing in a magazine/ graphic design tied to fashion/art

3- how to publish a memoir or artsy writing book

 

three things i can teach others to do:

1- how to understand and analyze one's dreams [how to be more in touch with your inner self] thru keeping a dream journal.

2- how to scrap book, write, or keep a journal [my best skill is in writing and expressing self thru words/sharing]

3- how to dress with style and how to be fashionable.

Who's the most annoying person on TV?

So many that I may have to revise this list later and add more at a later date, but for now, I'd have to nominate: George Bush, Rachel Ray, Giada on the food network, + Nancy Grace, annoying Target Lady character on Saturday Night Live.

What set you apart from the rest of the kids at school? 
Submitted by jks.

i wore black far too often, and resorted to books, journal writing, poetry, and listening to my music rather than speaking to others or eating lunch . i was painfully shy and i was a loner.

i never felt i fit in. i felt i was far too complicated for most to understand. 

but, i always craved the kind of attention where i would be understood and where i would feel i belonged, somewhere, in the world.

looking back, i haven't changed all that much.

i guess in many ways i am a walking contradiction. what i crave- what i want and need so much- connection- is what i lack the most in life.

growing up, my life and my family were full of dysfunction, alcoholism, abuse, blame, secrets/lies, and isolation.

you learn what you live.

i was not allowed normal social contact as a child/teenager that most normal children are rightfully given, therefore i learned to fear everything outside of myself, and to confine-  myself.

isolation. it is still something i know so well. but how do you get past "that", when it's all you've ever known?

it seems funny to me that even though my home [childhood/upbringing] was a "prison" most of my life,  the idea of venturing past "that" or escaping seemed much more daunting, terrifying and impossible than the abusive/painful home itself. 

but when you are taught to fear the world or anything outside-- what you think, what you feel, what you believe- becomes distorted. somehow twisted.

yes, those days are over, but everyday is still a challenge - to me. i constantly strive to break the barriers of an oppressive past but it is not without struggle.

somedays, it just seems never ending and i think, where am i? have i made any progress, or am i just driving around in circles?

it seems i am always in transition, metamorphosis--- the caterpillar that never quite becomes the butterfly.
