everytime I need a listening

midnightbliss — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 14:04:59 -0600

everytime I need a listening ear, words of wisdom, advice on minor and major decisions, I always feel comfortable to ask it from my bestfriend. I don't know how long we've been bestfriends but we've known each other almost 8 years ago and both of us has been a part of each other's choices and decisions in life. The most important thing is to have trust, honesty and acceptance of the consequences.

It does indeed relate

This quote from you being an example:

But, there was no Will and Grace, no L Word and certainly no Kevin and Scotty trying to find a surrogate mother and egg donor for their soon-to-be baby on “Brothers and Sisters.” You may take these characters and television shows for granted, perhaps not even choose to tune in, but at least they are represented in popular culture today.

Fascinating analysis

Kim Pearson — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:28:32 -0600

I've only seen parts of a couple of episodes of the L word, never having been a Showtime subscriber, but I have been aware of some of the cultural impact that you describe. I know that there is (or was) an L world island in Second Life as well. This is a great analysis of the way that one can leverage "legacy" and "new" media to market a brand.

The characters

were just so likeable. (Well, okay: Jenny.)

A Great Thing For the Women in the World

MiaSarai — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 08:46:05 -0600

I've watched The L Word religiously since it premiered on Showtime. I watched it because it was real, you saw the cast going through real issues that we all experience at some point in our life. I watched during their ups and downs, when they were in love and when they weren't and there was always one of the ladies you could connect with and you see yourself in that person.

The L Word was a great thing for the women in the world, gay or straight you enjoyed it because they dealt with issues that we all were having.

You fell in love with each character because they all had a certian je ne sais quoi that you couldn't help but fall in love with.

Ready to take the lead

A guy my daughter is seeing...

Denise — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:21:50 -0500

is apparently working on a book that includes his status updates, random tweets, etc... I have no idea how he's pulling this together or what it's going to develop into, but I'm fascinated by it.

I often tweet and status update obscure stuff that only a few people really understand. It's intentional, I don't want to give the details behind that because there are consequences to that. Someday... five years from now, seven years from now - when all of the kids are really grown, then I'd consider spilling the beans (and giving the real dirt behind what I meant...)

I confess so much and yet

avflox — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 17:02:23 -0500

I confess so much and yet say so very, very little in my FB statuses. Spelling out the truth would be fascinating.

I think this is a really interesting idea

sassymonkey — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 15:54:39 -0500

Very interesting. I often feel like I have a hard time actually blogging these days...but I update Chatter and Twitter almost daily. Every status has a story. Hmm NaBloPoMo is next month...this might be just the kind of idea I need to kick start personal blogging again. Hmmm...

Excellent

I went through to Women's Voices for Change and read your most excellent article, then tweeted and stumbled it.
