Sensations Of A Kiss
Despite the relative tastelessness of kisses, they are usually referred to as sweet. Tasting of wine, strawberries and honey are some of the most common descriptions of lover’s kisses, although some poets are more creative. For example, The Song of Songs says, "Thy lips drip as the honeycomb, my spouse: Honey and milk are under thy tongue."The feel...  more...

Why women marry
It’s always a wonder to me as to why women marry. Don’t get me wrong, but mostly I find that women marry the wrong sort of guy for the right reasons (eg, Karisma Kapoor), or marry the right sort of guy for all the wrong reasons (eg, Karisma Kapoor again). The more beautiful/successful they are, the more vulnerable they seem to be on this front. It’...  more...

Juno walks the thin line between being light or ridiculous, between being frank or vulgar and comes out on tops.
