Paltrow’s Oscar Isn’t the Only Thing that Makes Little Sense About Her
Let’s face it: in the vast panorama of cinematic history, 1999’s Harvey Weinstein-produced Shakespeare in Love has held-up about as well as a Kleenex in the hand of a chronic hay-fever sufferer. There may be many reasons why Ms. Paltro…

Really, What ARE the Chances?!?
I’m absolutely relieved that this unfortunate young woman made it out alive, but WHAT ARE THE ODDS of experiencing some sort of incident involving a 17-ft. Saltwater Crocodile at a place called “Crocosaurus Cove” in a region called DARWIN? #DoTheMath…

Syncretic Powers, Activate!
Behold a fascinating revelation from the grand Cintra Wilson about her personal (and obviously striking) experiences with Santeria on her latest Substack. Syncretism in ancient religious systems has always mesmerized me; I have studied it within and without the parameters…
