Ramble, Ramble, Ramble. I forgot to refill my ADD meds. Just joking - or am I? There are 150 different beers to try, all singles for under $3, at MSM Deli on Sixth Avenue. Get a killer sammy and drink your beer on the patio in broad daylight. Whoa. Thanks, hot-tippers Joe and

Has anyone else noticed the clown face kids? The first one I saw I was like, whoa, lay off the Ritalin. After seeing a couple more of these kids in different areas of town, I was like, ohhhh this is bad. One thin pre-teen looking boy was giving attitude to

Took Taylor to lunch at Wild Orchid for her birthday this week and did a little Halloween shopping. I am always amazed at how early stores get the jump on holidays. Christmas stuff sold in September. Easter decorations sold in February. Fourth of July in March. It kinda makes it

Hello, boys and girls, lusty lads and horny hotties, diddlers and donut doers. Depeche Mode has let me down, just not as badly as NIN or Duran Duran let me down. Call it artistic growth, necessary change or refer to musical evolution. I don't care. I am convinced that some of

Two things First, where is the good looking Carson Daly from 1997? Why has he been replaced with the too tan, too thin buzz-cut hair having, suit-wearing Carson? That's bad. Quit it. I want the T-shirt wearing Carson back. Second, why is everybody freaking out that Kate Moss does nose candy? Yes, I

Thursday, May 19 Lincoln Bowl off East 38th has some of the finest Southern food around. DO IT, his friend, THIS FINE RAG'S EDITOR and I ate big platefuls of ribs, barbecue chicken, and corn bread. The lounge provided one of the strongest vodka 7's I have had in forever. I

I must share a little story of a fashion show from about two weeks ago at 21 Commerce. I'd spent Friday night at an after party till 4:30 a.m., and yet, somehow I managed to get to the IN BLOOM FASHION SHOW AT 21 COMMERCE at 11 a.m. Saturday (I

Once again, I had too much fun the night before the party holiday and was not about to go play the next night. No more Surfer On Acid, Wiseman or Liquid Cocaine. Did I think it was my 17th birthday? Nope, just a good Wednesday. Why my purple leather heels

Today is Cinco de Mayo. Almost none of the clubs or bars are doing anything special. Is it because they've all gotten wise to the fact that the South Sound doesn't really need a reason to party? Wednesday, April 27 Ahhhh, COLLEGE PARTIES. No matter how old you get, they're the same.

Tuesday, March 22 Feels like a month ago, but just last week I kicked it with GOAT BOY, BADASS BRIA AND HER BEAT BOXING BOY TOY. We hit WILD ORCHID for their tasty lamb with lychee fruit. She and I decided it was a holiday and therefore ordered champagne. The server

You know the feeling that you have forgotten something that lingers on and on for no reason sometimes? Well, I've had it now for 10 days. I think it stems from being slightly hungover, living out of boxes and wading in pathways through said boxes in my new abode. I

Wednesday, Feb. 23 MS. DANI YELL and I tried out the newest installment of EAST WEST CAFE in Proctor District. The wine was good if a little spendy, but the flavor of the food made up for it. The décor is well thought out too. Across the street, I spotted ALFREDO,

Myspace, Myspace, Myspace. Everybody's on Myspace. Besides straight-up porn, I can't think of any other Web site to which you can lose whole hours of your life. There are cool peeps on the site to meet and all. Heck, half the South Sound is on there. Mostly, I like jumping

Thursday, July 14 GG met me at the Boneyard in time to catch Sea Jayne Trip do a killer version of beloved Afghan Whigs' song "My Curse," originally sung by Scrawl's Marcy Mays in '93, but Tiffany handled the vocals well. I hope there'll be more of that. GG and I

Sunday night dinners with my urban family are sensational. It's so chill. Rose made the most incredible spaghetti sauce and Unkie Troy supplied the meat (doesn't he always). Seven of us crowded into the living room to watch "VH1's Least Metal Moments" and howled with laughter. Images of Celine Dion

After spending the weekend feeling like A SINGLE MOM OF ADD TEEN-AGERS, I have a profound respect for the real moms out there. I had no idea how tough it was. My 17-year-old sister Sara Tess flew out for our father's wedding. He left on his honeymoon, so I had
