Superman II was the best of the Christopher Reeve Superman movies because it had three hot villains. Okay, it had two hot villains. The dude on the right was just some kind of Wookiee with slightly reduced body hair. But on the far left, we have Ursa. Behold the beauteousness of Ursa! Behold her fabulous…

We Tag the World. We Tag the Children.
If you weren’t sentient in the ’80s, you missed some interesting fashion. You also missed the moment when wealthy musicians from the U.S. and U.K. first started tormenting innocent African people with insipid charity songs. It’s bad enough to be starving. It’s worse to be starving while some craptastic song generates large amounts of money…
Google Hates Wendy Brandes
Google “Wendy Brandes” right now and you’ll find my soon-to-be-updated jewelry website, my 2001 wedding announcement, a nice interview that Jennine of The Coveted did with me, and don’t forget my all-important, highly relevant and immensely popular 1998 book reviews. But where oh where has my blog gone? Why has the main link gone from…
Stay Away. 150 Yards Away.
I need a restraining order, y’all. I’m not just worried about whoever Googled “Wendy Brandes home address.” (By the way, it is 123 Main Street, Noway, Nohow. The zip code is Get The Hell Out Of Here.) I need a restraining order to keep Dr. Phil away from my favorite sticky-fingered client, Britney Spears. I…

Thanks to The Clothes Horse for tagging me with the Thinking Blogger Award and simultaneously making me feel deeply guilty about my recent lack of Book Club posts. To steal a paragraph directly from TCH: “If you get tagged you have to write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think and…
Help Me! Mashed Potatoes!
As you may have noticed, I really love Geico car insurance commercials. Geico Mention #1 Geico Mention #2 But nothing beats the Little Richard ad. Well, maybe this beats it. UPDATED TO ADD: The story behind the ads, plus a tribute to real-life customer Denise Bazik where Denise commented back. I think Denise may be…
The Week in Review
Special correspondent PPIEW has taken it upon herself to sum up this week’s posts in pictures, as a courtesy for those people who are reading-impaired. Big head. Little arms. Boob bow. Coco. Boob bow. Argyle. Rings that are so big you can wear them as necklaces. There. Now you’re all caught up.
A Rose Is a Rose Is a Rose Is a Rose
Photo source: Uber Desi I enjoyed this story about Rose, India’s first transgendered late-night TV talk show host. Go on with your bad self, Rose! As I recently mentioned, one of my 15 personalities is three-year-old boy who is really a girl trapped in a boy’s body. Sweet’ums, as he likes to be called, was…
Boob Bow Redux at Luxx
Yep! The boob bow is the new hot thing. First it was the butt bow. Now it’s the boob bow. This boob bow was brought to you by Luxx Magazine, published by the Times of London, part of the Murdock/h MegaEmpire. Speaking of MegaEmpires, did I not tell you that Google was going to punish…
