Understanding Japan

Posted on June 18, 2009 by Ginger Mayerson

I don’t think we’re supposed to understand Japan. “It’s Japan Day here on Bitterwallet, which means we’ve got this story and possibly another one later on that heralds from the alien world of Pachinko, the original Hole In The Wall … Continue reading →

Michelle on Vogue’s cover

Posted on February 16, 2009 by Ginger Mayerson

This is about as close as I ever get to Vogue. It weighs too much for me to read. Take it away, David E! But she does look pretty cool on this cover.

This doesn’t surprise me

Posted on December 15, 2008 by Ginger Mayerson

Becoming obsessed with “The Music Man”

Posted on September 15, 2008 by Ginger Mayerson

is probably better than becoming obsessed with the Republicans right now. Probably more American, too. This is such a goofy show. I love it. Strange, though, how Robert Preston can be hot without being sexy. Very strange.
