| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. For as long as she lived, she had no idea there was anything sexual or seedy about being called "Lolita". |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| Fun With Dicks & Janes |
| Tuesday, March 07, 2006 |
Let me start first by saying Star Jones Reynolds was beautiful today on The View, and has been becoming more and more gorgeous with each show that passes. She's grown into a stunner.
 Seriously. My pics don't even come close to doing her justice.
Now. Today's Hot Topics segment of the show got a little interesting, as it typically does.
 ...that said "anywhere between two and three million women are married or have been married to men who have sex with men, and in most cases it's not marriages of convenience or a cover that the man is using, these are men who fall in love with women, often have children, then in about seven years, interestingly enough, the gay identity starts emerging. I'm not saying it was never there, but it begins to emerge and they can no longer hide."
 "Was it always just hidden or just not, ah, publicly talked about?"
Barbara was at the table today. She responded with...
 "You see, I'm not sure, Star. I mean, I do have friends who were married to men whom we thought were gay. I don't think the women knew. I think the men felt they had to be married, and somehow (sic) and they had children and somehow or other it seemed to work. It's different now when men feel either more liberated, if that's the right word, to do it, or not ashamed."
The dialogue continued as Star offered a possible explanation for the wives of these guys, particularly if they live in small towns (a la Brokeback Mountain):
 "You wanna just try to hide, you know, your privacy... ...not just for yourself, but for your children and for your husband."
 " Why doesn't the woman get it?"
 " Maybe she doesn't want to get it."
To which Star replied..." Yeah."
The (annoying) Elizabeth, in a rare moment of sane relevance, suggested a woman who suspects her man might be gay should take him to see Brokeback and see how he reacts, and if he seems really into it, that should tell the woman something.
Star, tapping her temple, said...  " That would be 'ding, ding, ding'?"
Elizabeth said, "You can tell. You know, you know him," then, under her breath, said...
 " Well, I hope you do."
Wasn't that a fun hot topics??!! I just love the fact that they talk about everything on The View!!!
