How a raunchy comedy struck a blow for Sisterhood: Sex and the City, 10 Years Later
This is an important date in history – for some of us. Ten years ago on this date, Sex and the City, HBO’s “raunch-com,” ended and Carrie finally got her happy ending with “Mr. Big.” And we finally found out his real first name. I began watching the show around Season 3. Once I got […]
Not Nominated, Arby’s Wins on Grammy Night
Amidst the 33 marriages and Madonna scrutiny at this year’s Grammy’s, Arby’s managed to arguably win the best Tweet award.
