Am I Right Ladies: Jonesing For More Samantha
Darren Star has yet to return any of my letters to get Sex and the City back on the air- he won’t even have the decency to give me a restraining order- but someone in the advertising universe clearly heard my prayers for more Samantha Jones.

Men’s Health: Older Women Have Sex Sooner Than 20-Year-Olds
Attention males: your ageist attempts to have sex with 20-year old women may be misguided. A fantastic new Men’s Health study says that 40-year old women are more likely than 20-year olds to have sex on the first date.

Rue McClanahan’s Blanche Was The Original Samantha
Today’s news of the passing of former Golden Girls’ Rue McClanhan was a blow to everybody who grew up loving that show. And if the recent surge in Betty White’s popularity is any indication, everyone in our generation grew up watching The Golden Girls: either while home sick or after school, or during late-night college munchie sessions when our roommates bought the box set.
