That Nancy O'Dell dress was very much like a babydoll negligee, IMO. The color was nice, but the rest of it--bleah.

I wish that they had a family chart with that article. I love "frugal displays of affection" -- although that doesn't really describe my Ivan.
With each migration, evolutionary forces morphed the pantherlike patriarch of all cats into a rainbow of species, from ocelots and lynxes to leopards, lions and the lineage that led to the most successful cat of all, even though it has mostly forsaken its predatory heritage: the cat that has induced people to pay for its board and lodging in return for frugal displays of affection.
(Bold mine)
Is the PR finale during fashion week or after?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The Bf and I have NPR names, due ot the un-yoooo-sual names of all NPR correspondents. I'm Tondelayo Miller and He's Satirious Fogelson. We figure there's some sort of rule that people have to change their names from, say, "Kevin Halligan" to "Cormac LongChamps" when they get hired.

Color Test: the old left/right brain struggle
This is a Stroop test, used to measure attention and distractability. As far as I know, it has nothing to do with left-right brain differences. Odd that they would imply that it does.
