It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Case against the Designated Hitter. Robin Ventura charged the mound after Nolan Ryan hit him with a pitch in 1993.

Knowing you don't have to face the opposing team's pitcher yourself probably makes you care less about hitting a batter.

Still pretty dumb of Ventura to end up in a headlock, though. Perhaps he shouldn't have dropped his bat.

Hey Cashmere, guess what? J Jill hasn't succumbed to the stupid no-waist trend. Lotsa good stuff. I am a little worried that I am no longer lusting after J Crew and am now looking at J Jill. Does this mean I am officially ready to turn 40 next year?

Attention all youth: do not take it for granted!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have a pair of crappy linen capris from Old Navy, and when someone asked me if they were J Jill, I couldn't decide if I should be pleased or insulted!

Sara, your job is goofy.

WELCOME BACK, SUE!!

Jesse, J Jill makes quality stuff and is known for their linen look, right? I don't think it's an insult.

It's how we keep from flinging ourselves into the ravine.

I'm tired of digging around in the gigantaur purse I bought on vacation.

Should I be shot dead for considering a Purseket? Is it at the top of the aging-dork purchases?

Wow, I am having severe about-to-turn-40 anxieties today.

Oh, I know she was complimenting them, but I have a hard time getting past J Jill = For People Older Than Me.

WELCOME BACK, SUE!!

Thanks Jesse!

I should go to bed. I have had too little sleep all weekend.

I am realizing that that is my demographic, or pretty close to it.

CBC just did a little clip thing on Mark Spitz. Between the mustache and the Speedo, total porn star.

Sigh. I know what you mean.
