In high school, I took a French 2 class in the 12th grade. The teacher was from Argentina, I think. How the connection (and why she was in small-town Rocky Mount, NC), I will never know. She let us do a show and tell every friday, but it had to be presented in French. I …

In 2006, I was given a VIP tour of Parrot Jungle in Miami (now it’s called Jungle Island). I got to get in the cage with a Komodo Dragon, a private viewing of a weird Australian bird, and feeding of the twin orangutans. During the tour, the people in charge saw that the animals were …
I was disappointed with this season’s contestants up front, but I am now unhappy with the results. One of the things that I love about RuPaul is his attitude and happy aura. I would think that this would be one of the requirements he would have for this competition. I was sure that RuPaul would …
