Lost in this clip from the 1958 movie "Teacher's Pet" is the class war embedded in the plot. Clark Gable (right) plays a newspaper editor who considers journalism a trade, Doris Day a journalism professor who considers it a profession. In the end Gable's boss is flattered and the two sides compromis...

Hello.  You know me.  I’m Joi, your chatty and happy blogger.  I have one husband, three daughters, three cats, an invisible bulldog named Duchess (don’t judge me), and I love animals beyond all reason. I possess a happy addiction to coffee, tea, Diet Dr. Pepper, and chocolate. I love...

Si ustedes piensan que aman profundamente a sus consolas de videojuegos, no tienen la más mínima idea de nada.
