Coaches on the Edge to be on the Cover of O Magazine. Week 27.
elizabeth: Hey, Oprah. I am growing tired of my day job which is basically trying to come up with clever ways to get your attention. I know you don’t accept gifts or bribes (good thing about the bribing – check out my savings account – $00.02 balance). What’s a girl to do? So I...

Coaches on the Edge Wonder What Do They Need Besides a Cute Pool Boy?
elizabeth: My new favorite word is epiphany. Repeat after me boys and girls, “Epiphany ms. cassidy.” I like rolling it over my tongue so much because I finally figured out how to spell it. You know if you spell a word in a real stupid way, spell check will make you sweat. They will...

Coaches on the Edge are Getting it off Their Chests.
elizabeth: Today I went for a mammogram. I compare it to a man getting his penis stuck in a vice that is controlled by a monkey high on crack. I have yet to meet a Mammography Technologist (had to look it up. I thought it was more like the head mistress of an S&M...

Coaches on the Edge Turn 100.
Laurie: Okay, maybe we’re lying and our collective ages are 100…or maybe not. Actually this is our 100th blog. That’s a lot of ranting and raving, and God bless you, that’s a lot of reading. So why do we mark things in hundred’s? Obama had 100 days to prove his stuff; a century is...

Coaches on the Edge say Take These States and Help Them. Or Not.
Laurie: There are some States that just seem to keep needing help. Take poor Louisiana. As I writes thousands of gallons of smarmy oil are oozing their way to the coasts of this still-not-recuperated-from-Hurricane-Katrina land. Of course States in the Gulf of Mexico will be affected but Louisiana is expected to get the brunt...

Laurie: Oprah, elizabeth and I are edging up on our 100th blog. That’s a lot of blogging, and in your case, it’s a lot of begging. What a lovely anniversary gift being on the cover of O Magazine would be for the well-deserving, witty and wonderful Coaches on the Edge! And what a nice...

It’s Summer Time. Coaches on the Edge say “Let the Freak Show Begin!”
Laurie: Just came in off the streets, and although it was not a unique idea on one of the sunniest days of 2010 thus far, it was definitely frightening. Where do all the freaks go in the winter? Is there a housing place where they lay in wait for good weather? Today there were...

Coaches on the Edge to be on the Cover of O Magazine. Week 24
Laurie: Happy Mother’s Day, Oprah! Relax. Don’t worry; Kitty Kelly didn’t tell us that you were pregnant or had a love child in the 70’s. We know that, like elizabeth and I, you are child-free. But I was thinking you truly are a mother. Mother of the Talk Show Hosts. Mother of the Charity-Inspiring...
