Relationship talk


Coming from long-term relationships I know what it's like to be stuck in a situation that you feel you can't get out of. But the thing about being with someone, is that you should never feel trapped. You should never feel like you have no other options if the relationship were to go sour. The beautiful thing about finding another person, is the ability to have two independent people with their own set of thoughts, feelings, and dreams, come together and create an unstoppable duo. You should always be stronger with the support of your partner...not weaker.

A love like this

10 Really Strange Sex Laws

1. In Bakersfield, California, if you’re going to have sex with Satan, you’ve gotta use a condom. And definitely come up with a safe word!

2. Poking a porcupine is illegal in Florida. But apparently that law didn’t go far enough. Just a couple weeks ago, State Senator Nan Rich submitted a bill that would ban peeps in the Sunshine State from being able to stick it in where the sun don’t shine on any animal.

3. In Minnesota, it’s illegal for any slime bucket to hook up with a live fish. Don’t worry disinterested wives, a cold fish is still a-okay!

4. In Dyersburg, Tennessee, it is illegal for a lady to call a gentleman for a date. Clearly no one in that town is getting laid!

5. In Merryville, Missouri, no woman can waste her natural waist. Wearing a corset is illegal because “the privilege of admiring the curvaceous, unencumbered body of a young woman should not be denied to the normal, red-blooded American male.” No wonder it’s called the “Show Me State!”

6. It’s illegal to purchase sex toys in Alabama. This law can beat it!

7. In Washington State, it’s totally legal to eff an animal like an animal, as long as it weighs less than 40 lbs. What, fatty farm pets don’t deserve some love?

8. While most would argue that this is place where the people get screwed many different ways, in Washington D.C., engaging in any sexual position other than missionary is illegal.

9. In Massachusetts, you cannot recklessly consummate your love with a rodeo clown while the horses are still around. But seriously, there’s a reason for the expression “hung like a horse.” I doubt the animal would get jealous!

10. The biggest internet porn consuming state, Utah, gets freaky in their laws too. Sex with an animal is totally cool, unless you’re doing it for cold hard cash! Hey, why buy the cow when you can have the milk for free!

I'm finding way too much funny shit today

This is just ridiculous. Just hang them on your shower rod or something...shit!

"Laundering your lingerie can really get your panties in a twist, especially when they get ruined in the wash. The new Bra Dryer claims to take care of this by individually drying bras without messing with the fabric or wiring. The device uses infrared heat to evaporate water and a boob-shaped frame so that your underthings keep their form. There are different settings for every possible kind of brassiere (padded, soft cup, silk, etc.) and accommodation for a range of cup sizes. The downside—you can only dry one garment at a time, which is sure to wear on your patience as much as conventional drying does on your bras."

Oh dear!

Dsquared2 collaborated with Britney Spears for the costumes for her upcoming tour Circus...one word: horrendus. Two more words: BIG disappointment.




Vanity Fair April 2009: Comedy's New Legends


This Picture was shot for Vanity Fair's March 2006 cover. THE following picture was shot for April 2009 cover story (all shot by Annie Leibovitz) LMAO

Here are the rest of the pics:







For your daily WTF?


Charter boat captain Erik Rue, 42, photographed the animal, which is actually an albino, when he began studying it after the mammal first surfaced in Lake Calcasieu, an inland saltwater estuary, north of the Gulf of Mexico in southwestern USA.

Capt Rue originally saw the dolphin, which also has reddish eyes, swimming with a pod of four other dolphins, with one appearing to be its mother which never left its side.

He said: "I just happened to see a little pod of dolphins, and I noticed one that was a little lighter.

"It was absolutely stunningly pink.

"I had never seen anything like it. It's the same color throughout the whole body and it looks like it just came out of a paint booth.

"The dolphin appears to be healthy and normal other than its coloration, which is quite beautiful and stunningly pink.

"The mammal is entirely pink from tip to tail and has reddish eyes indicating it's albinism. The skin appears smooth, glossy pink and without flaws.

"I have personally spotted the pink dolphin 40 to 50 times in the time since the original sighting as it has apparently taken up residence with its family in the Calcasieu ship channel.

"As time has passed the young mammal has grown and sometimes ventures away from its mother to feed and play but always remains in the vicinity of the pod.

"Surprisingly, it does not appear to be drastically affected by the environment or sunlight as might be expected considering its condition, although it tends to remain below the surface a little more than the others in the pod."

Regina Asmutis-Silvia, senior biologist with the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society, said: "I have never seen a dolphin coloured in this way in all my career.

"It is a truly beautiful dolphin but people should be careful, as with any dolphins, to respect it - observe from a distance, limit their time watching, don't chase or harass it

"While this animal looks pink, it is an albino which you can notice in the pink eyes.

"Albinism is a genetic trait and it unclear as to the type of albinism this animal inherited."

A close relation of dolphins, the Amazon River Botos, called pink dolphins, live in South America in the Amazon.

This cracked me up!

Epitaph of John Laird McCaffery (1940-1995), who lies in Montreal's Mount Royal Cemetery:

John:

Free your body
Unfold your powerful wings
Climb up the highest mountains
Kick your feet up in the air
You may now live forever
Or return to this earth
Unless you feel good where you are!

It was composed jointly by his ex-wife and mistress.

Some Quotes to Kick Off March

“Being single used to mean that nobody wanted you. Now it means you’re pretty sexy, and you’re taking your time deciding how you want your life to be and who you want to spend it with.”
“I wondered what happened when you offered yourself to someone, and they opened you, only to discover you were not the gift they expected and they had to smile and nod and say thank you all the same.”
“To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don’t want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.”
“In the movies, we have leading ladies and we have the best friend. You, I can tell, are a leading lady, but for some reason, you’re behaving like the best friend.”
“Hate is baggage. Life’s too short to be pissed off all the time. It’s just not worth it.”

Apple vs. Blackberry

Creatively, this advertisement is pretty on point.
The following quote cracks me up. It reminds me of all those girls in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco too, who wear that stupid tight (possibly even spandex) satin tube dress that was apparently made in every color at the club.
“Besides, clubwear is the kind of thing you want to be disposable so you can dance, drink, and leave it in a ball on your bedroom floor at the end of the night. Which means you might as well buy Bebe.” - Booth Moore, on why she thinks Gucci continues to look much cheaper than it costs.

these heels were made for walking

So after all the years we women have crammed our feet into heels, cloaked our toes in band-aids, lusted over those 6 inch patent leather platforms, and made even the most impossible-to-wear heels possible; Alexander McQueen has ironically designed a heel that for once tries to seduce our feet, by mirror image. I present to you the $1,865 leather toe detail pump. Behold a new revelation.. one I feel I must see in person before making judgement. Does this mean the new question is: Will it work with my toes?
spring fashion trends

I'm Baaaaacckkkkkkk ;-)

So my blogging hiatus has come to a much awaited halt. No need to go into the reasons behind my absence..the point is I'm back and bloggier than ever. Some new things are going on the life of Kate Starr, and yes 2009 is continuing its highly productive trend (as we proceed). Well folks, I guess thats my own little personal update...back to secret keeping/sharing, shall we? oh hush.
