It's a guy thing. Radio psycho-chatter Dr. Laura has ideas that make many feminists' toes curl. But this WashPost writer finds that -- surprisingly -- she agrees with many points, including "A good man is not a best girlfriend," and, "Many women actually believe they can have it all, and do it all well. Nope." I realize this will raise the rancor of many women, but I'm especially curious as to what the male monkeys think of this article, and Dr. Laura's theories about men.

The Illinois State Fair (my home state) has a cool Web site where you can take a virtual tour of the huge fairgrounds. The Wisconsin State Fair is famous for its cream puffs -- they sold 360,000 this year alone! Overseas monkeys, do you guys have state fairs, or something similar?

It's the weekend, so you might need a 21st Century Drinker Kit.
