...butter-soaked Julia Child meals for a year. Her lover and S&M partner was Damian, a former college fling with "Mick Jagger lips, and a weak chin." I am saddened that I have a clearer vision of Damian's masturbatory methods than of his actual appeal, and sadder still at the mental images Powell provides of herself tied up, awaiting his next "R-owwr." (Since when is talking like Austin Powers sexy?) This recipe for marital disaster comes with scattered recipes you'd hesitate to trust, given the horrific disorder of Powell's upstairs kitchen...

As fate would also have it, “ER”—the primetime TV medical drama Crichton created, wrote, and produced—is in the midst of its 15th and final season, ending after February sweeps in 2009. As can already be seen in other medical dramas like...
...ballot for the McCain-Palin ticket last week, I understood why undecided voters would find the Obama-Biden train more appealing. Somewhere along the campaign trail, John McCain lost his ability to inspire voters. I’m sad he’s lost, but I’m sadder that he played such a deliberate role in the reason for his defeat...
