At first I thought that basketball was covered with bees, and was looking forward to some kind of heartwarming nature crap.

Dillene, I hated that story too.

I do brag, though I try to avoid it, but I have to say I’m a pretty darn good parallel parker. It’s all about the first cut.

I love to parallel park in front of dudes. All I need is an inch on the front and back of the vehicle.

Two dudes watched my (wo)maneuvering and their jaws kept dropping. They stopped walking and stared. I exited the vehicle and said, ‘OK, where’s the applause?’ And they actually clapped!

I learned parallel parking in hilly Athens, Ohio and then perfected the skill in San Fran.

Too bad there isn’t a high-paying job for parallel parkers.

“Most women are integral to your daily routine? How come I’m not part of it, then?”

Ha! Good catch! I can’t believe I wrote that appalling sentence.

“Gaffa (black cloth tape, used in music industry, with which you’d be familiar, Jill.)”

You must have me confused with Celine Dion. None of the dirt poor bands I was in, or any of the seedy joints I ever played, could afford gaffer tape. I still have mics and cables that are largely held together with ducktape residue.

Like most women, bobbleheads and duct tape are integral to my daily routine.

I couldn’t live without duct tape. Or its sister, Gaffa (black cloth tape, used in music industry, with which you’d be familiar, Jill.)

Feral: Yes! Exactly! Not to mention the fact that corporations are dumping metric butt-tons of waste into the environment and we puny consumers are admonished to reduce, reuse, recycle, blah blah blah, lather rinse repeat.

In our collection of bobbleheads is a William Hung.

And less than half a roll of duct tape, for shame.
