School is a different experience for everyone, but really, what I think people really wax nostalgic for is not so much the classes and teachers and learning experience as just the opportunity to be YOUNG again; to have all your future ahead of you and to experience the joys of life and love for the first time all over again.

I went to an English Public School and for me, it was the best and the worst of times.

Death washed away Princess Diana's sins.

It's strange, I came across a tabloid from June 1997 with a cover story that was blasting on her for hooking up with an Egyptian (in the article he was dubbed "Arab") playboy. This article got mean, as in really mean, as it quoted people in Britain who were ragging on her, saying some truly rugged stuff about her character and morals, and one woman called her a "traitor."

Flash forward eight or nine weeks and those same people likely not only forgave her all that, they probably forgot they ever felt that way about her as they cried and wailed that she was the People's Princess whom they'd always loved and would love to the end of time. (Insert chirping crickets....)

I went out today with my dancer friend to see her new studio expansion and we had lunch and I was like, "Y'know, I'm real proud of you for never being bulimic."

That got me an odd glance from a server who overheard but the thing is, I actually am proud of her for that since bulimia is the common cold of dancers. It's even called the "dancers' disease."

Me, I think I'd go for tape worms instead of barfing all the time if I had no other viable scenarios and had to be ten pounds underweight all my career.

Well, It seems that this year I will continue with my tradition of be single in Valentine's Day. It's not like I really care about that day, but I start to think about why be single at my 38 don't worry me. I mean, I really want to meet a woman and have children, start my own family, but here I am. The irony it is this 'statement' sound a bit depressive, but it is not. OK, just a little.

Hey, I don't think I'll have a date for Valentine's Day, either, and I don't really want one. I just stopped seeing someone seriously.

The irony is, when I was your age I really wanted to meet a wife and start a family. In my 40s I decided I wouldn't chase that dream anymore---and suddenly, more women started coming to me. It just became so much easier once I removed that pressure from myself. Hopefully the same will happen for you.

I think that is hilarious and true.

If I could offer any man one piece of advice where women are concerned? Be a good listener. No, that's not the only thing that matters but almost all women find it an attractive quality, and it's a trait almost any man can learn. Don't patronize, truly listen and try to relate. You might be surprised where that may take you.

Agonizingly painful arthritis in my left hip....

Just spent my entire evening at the hospital only to find out there's nothing I can do about it!
