Dear Folks,
Pop Quiz:
Why is this week’s intro so lame (I meant to say short and sweet)?:
a) Houseguests
b) Big Birthday in da house
c) 8am tennis
d) Counting the waning hours of Summer and, not that I don’t love each and every one of you and each and every article on the internet, but I gotta run.
e) All of the above
Good news: No matter how you did on my quiz, I now also gave you more time to read the most important news of the week about women in politics, business, the arts, fashion, sports and pop culture. Guaranteed discovery of something you didn't know before. Discover, amplify, and share a voice you hadn't heard before. Have a laugh.
