Because there's really no limit to ego gratification when you've got a spot to spout with your name on it.

lambie of the week

This is one of my all-time favorite cartoons, by the magnificent Mo Willems. He has written many children's books and wrote for Sesame Street, but the names alone and inside jokes make it worth it even if, heaven forfend, you don't care much about sheep. Tell me it's not so! Hey, how many people do you know who use the word "forfend"? Huh? I thought so. Especially if you're STILL looking up Kyla Ebbert references. For gosh sakes, people, she's not even interesting!

Honestly, people, there are prettier, smarter, more influential, more interesting women around to ogle. Pick one. The woman isn't even on the same planet as Sophia Loren, for instance. Or Glenda Jackson. Or even Maggie Thatcher. OK, maybe she's not what you'd call a looker, but influential? You betcha, whatever you thought of her politics. Let's try thinking with the UPstairs bits, eh what? You know what Frank Zappa said? "What is the dirtiest part of your body? It's your mind!"
