The Empty Suit
Years ago when I was a single woman I used to see a good-looking man at parties I attended on a regular basis. After spotting this attractive guy at several events I decided that I would introduce myself. I went up to him and up close he looked even better but within minutes of the start of our conversation I could see that he was a complete moron, a zero. No sense of humor, no wit, no charm and very little brain activity that I could detect. I lost interest within seconds.

Hell Raiser
In October, 2001 I wrote a column about domestic violence in MetroBeat that discussed the fact that while beating a dog or a stranger in the street is considered a felony and punished accordingly, beating your wife or domestic partner once or twice is considered a misdemeanor under South Carolina law. Four years later, nothing has changed and I'm just as pissed as ever about that...and that's how I wound up on the cover of The Greenville News this morning. I attended a public hearing on domestic violence last night at the public library. I didn't intend to make waves, just support my good friend Teresa who's a survivor of domestic abuse and an advocate but as luck and my big mouth would have it I just had to ask the question that still nags at me. Why does the South Carolina legislature place a higher value on animals than women in this state?
