OK, we all went through that Jane Austen phase. Many went through it in 2005 when ‘Pride and Prejudice,’ with Keira Knightley came out; arguably one of the best movie adaptations of a Jane Austen novel (other than the BBC version with Colin Firth). Maybe you stuck with Jane Austen and read the rest of her novels or maybe you were content with ‘Pride and Prejudice.’ Austen had a unique writing style; she crafted beautiful love stories but also presented a very satirical look at society during her life. That writing style lives on in the works of Jude Morgan, a pseudonym for ultra-private English author Tim Wilson. Wilson rarely makes public appearances and does not have an Internet presence, but his novels are highly regarded as excellent pieces of historical fiction.

However, there are some dances crazes that are a lot less like dance and more like convulsing or epileptic seizures.

For many, hearing the Zimmerman verdict was a sobering slap in the face. When Zimmerman — a clearly unstable and maybe even sociopathic man who killed a kid — is allowed to walk our streets as a free man, you know something is very, very wrong.

The band that met on the internet returned there to collect pledges for its newest album "Hush." The band, The Limousines raised $75,808 and with that began recording their new album.

We all have been on a trip once in a our lives and have forgotten something that you thought was so important there is no way you could forget it.

It’s funny how these things work out in life.
