Advice & Consent

Came across this gem while looking through the latest online version of the American Psychological Associations "Monitor on Psychology".

The "test" was developed in the late 1930s by George W. Crane, MD, PhD, of Northwestern University, who ran a counseling practice, wrote a syndicated national newspaper column called "The Worry Clinic" and started his own matchmaking service. The test was designed to give couples feedback on their marriages. Either husbands or wives could take the test, which rated wives in a variety of areas.

Put Some Iron Into Your Diet


Despite having had a somewhat meager lunch at Joeys (3 miniburgers) I managed to chow down most of a large popcorn and pop at today's 1:10 pm screening of Iron Man. Worth the wait, excellent movie. However, DRo's recommendation/commandment to stay 'til the end of the credits was time that would have been better spent visiting the closest urinal (what with all the liquids consumed). Sam Jackson as Nick Fury in the Avenger's Movie -- WTF -- as Therzo repeatedly pointed out, Nick Fury is an angry white man (much like I was waiting for the credits to end).



And BTW, what's wrong with recasting the Hoff?
