Dear Medicare,

Lemme get something straight. According to a late night TV commercial your company is willing to cover the cost for “Pos-T-Vac” so that an 80 year-old man can still get a hard-on.

Would You Ever Consider Cosmetic Surgery?

It’s no secret that I’ve undergone plastic surgery. In fact, I wrote about it here.

Broke Box Mountain

Once upon a time, there was a girl named Melody. She has reddish-brown hair and big brown eyes. She lives at home with her parents and her fifteen-year-old son.

Happy New Year MoFo’s – Wrapping up 2011

What…a crazy year I had. Let’s recap. Shall we? January started off with a mean case of writers block that ultimately ended with the purchase of a pair of Pajama Jeans.

The Results Are In

The last few weeks of my life have been incredibly difficult, to say the least. Let’s recap. Shall, we? First, I almost died. Like for real. Then, after seeing my allergist – per ‘Medical Instructions’ I survived on a steady diet of cheese, and chicken broth, for thirteen days, in a row. My doctor, determined [...]

Waiting…

“The doctor will see you now,” a stout, redheaded, nurse called out from behind the glass partition. I put down the gossip magazine and kept replaying the events of my Near Death Experience over and over in my mind. Still hoping it was all a bad dream, I slowly made my way back to the [...]

Woman Verses Food: Attack Of The Killer Lettuce.

When the police arrived, my throat had already swollen shut. “She’s going into Anaphylaxis shock,” the Officer radioed the paramedics while strapping a cold, plastic, oxygen mask to my face. “What did you have to eat?” He asked.
