Growing up in a Jewish matriarchal world inside the patriarchal paradise of Salt Lake City, Utah, gave me increased perspective on gender issues, as it also did my gay brother and my lesbian sister. Our younger sister is the perfect Jewish-American wife and mother, and is fiercely proud of that fact.

Humanity is a failed experiment, but I think I'm God and I'd like to start over. I don't want to die, I just want everyone else to. I certainly would not be lonely. It would be exciting never having to listen to another person again but just my own self droning on and on. That's why I write a blog. And I read it, too.

I want to be the girl in Indiana Jones. I would love to do an adventure movie where I was saving the world. It might be cool if I used a lot of kitchen tools to fight off the enemy.

I meditate so I know how to find a peaceful place within to be calm and peaceful.

A lot of men are impotent and it's very sad. How many of you are impotent? I see. Can't get your arms up either?

And, you know, I liked writing humor. Well, I should say, I wanted to write seriously, but it kept turning funny.

I am a woman, therefore I am a problem solver.
