Maggie Van Ostrand's columns and articles cover more topics than Washington has lobbyists. Each is listed below, with a descriptive blurb. We don't know what a blurb is, but Maggie thinks they may be useful here.
  • The Height of Celebrity
    The Height Detective exposes who's walking tall and who's walking small.
  • True Confessions
    Clinton, Gibson, Cruise ... even the Pope ... everybody's apologizing to everybody for everything.
  • Pluto
    They've tried to take God off our money, out of our courts, and off our lips. They've tried to destroy our religions. They've said the most unkind things about one of our favorite actors. Now they're screwing with Pluto? I don't think so.
  • Women of the News
    When Katie Couric begins anchoring the CBS Evening News on September 5th, I'll be among the millions of viewers who are watching something else.
  • Don Churrero
    The churro cannot be “made,” it can only be created. Further, the churro’s creator, the churrero, must be touched by the hand of God himself, for to partake of the delights of a churro is to know heaven on earth.
  • The Duchess of Windsor, A Guy Thing
    Was the Duchess of Windsor really a he? Should she have instead been called the Dude of Windsor?
  • Cesar Millan and Rachael Ray: America's Great Escape Artists
    During the Great Depression of the 1930s, the American people, desperately in need of relief from fears about the future, turned for escape to movie stars Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers for champagne and chiffon, horseracing icon, Seabiscuit, for inspiration and heart, and heavyweight boxer, Joe Louis, for action and grace.
  • Baby TV
    Be afraid. Be very afraid. There's a new show on Direct TV aimed at 0-3 year olds.
  • Dying To Be An American
    There's an easier way to become an American citizen than marching in emotional parades for immigration rights or studying U.S. history and being wait-listed for years, or even marrying into it.
  • The Art of Listening
    The way to a man's heart is through his stomach. The way to a woman's is through her ears.
