I seem to remember an incident of dolphin bullying several years ago at somewhere like SeaWorld.  Supposedly, a weaker one was killed by a group of males.

This thing about Warren Buffett living in a modest house is BS.  He has a home in Laguna Beach, I believe in Emerald Bay, in one of the priciest spots in the country...and who knows how many other homes he owns in exclusive areas.  A few years ago he had the nerve to claim that the people in California didn't pay enoug...more

Bare shoulders - I really hate the look, but I guess the brides think it's sexy or something.  This trend has been around maybe the last 10 years or so?  I'll be glad when it becomes untrendy.

This was so touching and enjoyable to see for cat lovers/cat owners like I am.  Now I need everyone's help.  Who deserves the more protection in developed urban areas?  People's pets (many of which are our cats)?

The LA City Council is a bad joke!  They're busy passing resolutions for things they have no control over just to sound righteous while the City and the State continue to go down the toilet.  And the really bad thing is that LA County is so large (and so liberal) that they sway results for the whole State.  This State ...more

It was more of a hassle with Social Security when I didn't change to my married name.  I kept getting letters in the mail from the IRS asking who I was.  So, I went in an changed it along with all of my other identities.  It's easier now to have the same last name as my husband than trying to explain why our last names...more
