The Lo Zone

A groovy place in cyberspace run by author Lolita Files. Come on in. Bring some Pepsi.

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 (although obviously I can't eat fried chicken nearly as much as I'd like). If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Church's (that's right, I said Church's) and a pair of Christian Louboutins.

Lo Fun Fact #3

Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi. Better yet, how about not showing up at all?

Lo Fun Fact #4

I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you or take a long time to return your calls. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? (Exception: I will happily take all calls related to business or to share fun/exciting/major news. I'm just not one for jawing on the phone just to be jawing.)

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. I'm always on my laptop and connected to the internet as I work and when IM's pop into my screen out of nowhere, they break my concentration and often startle the sh*t out of me in the process. So don't do it. 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 and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. I had a bird (a Roller pigeon that I rescued in LA on New Year's Day in 2004) named B-Bird (what? that's a good name!) who passed away in February 2009, which broke my widdle heart in half. He loved me so, as I did him. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs and cat, we'll be instant friends, and if you ask about B-Bird, I'll probably hug you (unless you smell...wash first). If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have ~~four~~ ~~five~~ six dogs and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond.

Coming out swinging

Monday, January 29, 2007

It looks like Hillary is making her intentions known right out the gate.

"This was his decision to go to war with an ill-conceived plan and an incompetently executed strategy,"

She further stated:

"I am going to level with you, the president has said this is going to be left to his successor," Clinton said. "I think it is the height of irresponsibility and I really resent it."

Not only does she do a good job of distancing herself from Bush but she also made it clear that she's in it to win it by opening herself up to foreign policy issues early on. Some are concerned that she wouldn't be able to stand up to the challenge of dealing with evil men as it relates to foreign affairs, but I think she's pretty tough.

I guess I have to keep my options open and watch this race pretty closely.

she's definitely going to have to come out swinging...but with a bat!

and there's nuthin' bush can say but "ouch!" *** but she also has shown support for the war also, which side of the fence is she's own??? ***

tackling foreign policy from the jumpstreet is a good move, if she's elected president, guess whose probably going to be her chief of staff.

bill baby!!!! (no interns please!)

The good news is that she's already bruising folks left and right. I couldn't bring myself to vote for another wet noodle like Kerry who let them slime him to death without a word. I think 2008 is going to be a different kinda year.
