    You know what? If I found myself in a subway car with a lunatic like the one described in the NYC incident, I would hope like hell that it was being operated by someone as on her game as Adeline Bayne-Goody. This "gross misconduct" charge sounds like bullshit.

    I'd buy a picture with me standing next to Sarah Palin -- with the credit card I swiped from her purse on the way out.

    I would pay 15 bucks for a photo of Sarah Palin standing next to me.

    I'll be the one wearing the "I'm With Stupid" t-shirt.

    I almost went to see Palin "for shts and giggles" yesterday, but the images on the TV news of many people camped out at the Costco discouraged me. Strike that, they depressed the hell out of me.

    Please, Jezebel.com. I beg of you, I love the Round-Up but it's impossible to read in this style. Why can't it be published like the Dirtbag? I have to skim through comments to find out half of what's in there then use the "Find" shortcut to the actual posting you've made.

    I'll come up there and make gumbo for everyone at the office if you stop this. I got somewhere to stay in Midtown with a former Louisianan -- I'll just saunter in with his gumbo pot. I can't help the vegetarians, though. This isn't that type of affair.

    @curiousgeorgiana: Cajun food is god in my mouth. When I visited Louisiana for the first time (I think I was 8), my dad bought me a huge soup bowl that had a gumbo recipe on it. I still use that recipe today and everyone loves my gumbo.

    I will take him to NOLA soon and show him how good it can be. Cajun and creole--Food of the gods, surely.

    @curiousgeorgiana: For the record, Creole food is New Orleans-style and has tomatoes. Cajun is Acadiana (8-parish area two hours west of NOLA) and we do not do that. Tomatoes in gumbo or etoufee are a scourge from the devil himself and an insult to rice. Love you, NOLA, but you know we part ways there!

    You don't want to know how much I paid to have my picture taken with William Shatner and Leonard Nimoy. But I'd still pay twice that before I gave SarahPalinPAC a dime.

    Does anyone have positive stories about experiences with a doula? My only interactions have been negative (a close friend had her doula leave midway through the delivery because there were complication and "she couldn't take it"; the woman I nannied for had one that could not provide lactation help because she had never had a child not latch on right away), and I think it is potentially such a great thing for a woman to have that kind of support, but it seems like sometimes it ends up being more trouble than its worth.

    @Spike49: I had a doula and she was great. She wasn't there to provide medical advice or anything like that. We met with her before the labor to talk about what we hoped it would be like and what it probably would be like. She was there with us in the delivery room and helped my husband stay calm, explaining what was happening when the medical staff was too busy to talk to us. She stayed with me while my husband took breaks. She came in with my husband while I was in the emergency c-section and he was crying and helped him cope with it. Loved her.

    @mommy_dearest: That is awesome! It seems like such a great idea when it works out as it should, like in your case, since you are able to have someone with you the whole time if your partner needs a break or emotional support. Also, just to have someone who knows what's going on seems like it would be such a relief. Thank you for sharing.

    @Spike49: My mom was a doula for 8 years (our local hospital provides them free of charge if you want one) and still stays in touch with many of the women she helped in the delivery process. Just like in any profession you are going to have people that are really good at what they do and really bad at what they do, but I would have a doula in a heartbeat if one was offered to me.

    Of course the police don't think foul play was involved. Black women don't get abducted, they simply go missing, indefinitely. Just like the little girl who was murdered in Chicago was "not a priority" because the police assumed she ran away. [www.suntimes.com]

    Sarah Palin . . . charging for photos at events, just like such stellar, current media figures as Lou Ferrigno. Although, last I checked, getting your photo with the Hulk cost $20.

    @BuffySummers: I like this one:
    Text messaging isn't the easiest thing in the world to do.

    Telephone keyboard only have a dozen or so keys, and since there's 26 possible letters plus punctuation marks, one usualy has to strike a key several times in order to produce a single letter.

    It takes a minute ot two to type and send a short message.


    Yeah, you can get these new-fangled phones with a full keyboard now. It would take me less than a minute and a half to type out that message and some people could do it a lot faster.

    @bananaballs: Okay, despite your wise advise, I looked anyway. Very uncool. But what baffled me was some comment about how hard it is to text and how it takes so much time. Texting is unbelievably easy, especially if you have a lot of practice and predictive text. I just tried entering that message on my phone with one hand, barely looking, and it took less than fifteen seconds. A more skilled texter could probably do it even faster. That woman was smart. She got help without pissing off her attacker and making him escalate. She has my respect.

    @Zombie Ms. Skittles: God, I saw that too. Plus, it seems like the average teen can probably type out a text in about 15 seconds.

    Two other particularly awful themes:

    "So she was being raped and could text at the same time? Sure..."

    "She must have had a part in this...

    A huge F off to everyone in that comment section.
