		<description>Rachel--if she were a man, she&#039;d probably be dead by now, because I can just picture what would happen to any man who dared open his mouth and say &quot;You don&#039;t have to be such a bitch about it&quot; to a woman in a Starbucks or whatever it was. Dead dead dead.

See-Dub, you hear that? &lt;em&gt;Rachel is cooler.&lt;/em&gt; Also sprach Mrs. Peel! But the really important thing is you&#039;re both cool enough to comment *here*.</description>

		<description>Wow, Rachel Lucas comments on your blog!!  I am in awe.  The coolest person who comments on mine is See-Dubya.

Seriously, thanks for pointing her site out.  I read several of her posts and enjoyed them, despite some philosophical differences.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been reading VA for a long long time and surprise!  I love her and she needs to have babies with me.  Not to mention, she has good advice about money and real estate.  Since she&#039;s completely anonymous, I actually like to think she&#039;s a man because then my crush isn&#039;t so confusing.</description>

		<description>It boggles the mind that anyone can be seriously bothered to hear someone say, &quot;I&#039;ll pray for you.&quot; I don&#039;t believe in God so, from my perspective, the prayers themselves have no supernatural efficacy. However, when I hear someone tell me that they&#039;ll pray for me (and if I happen to know that they are devout and sincere in their belief), I thank him or her. That is no less or more &quot;offensive&quot; to me than the phrase, &quot;I&#039;ll be thinking good thoughts&quot; or &quot;best wishes.&quot;  How can that not have at least a therapeutic value?

Sigh.

&quot;I&#039;ll be praying for you&quot; -&gt; Rabid Atheists Freakout
&quot;Happy Holidays&quot; -&gt; Rabid Christians Freakout

I&#039;m just praying that we all have happy holidays this year.</description>
