I’m the Canuck of the group, living somewhere north of NY State. And there are some weird names up here, certainly. My area was settled with a mixture of french and First People’s (that’d be the Canuck equivalent of a Native American)…anyway, the two languages get mishmashed sometimes, resulting in names like Gananoque (Gan-ah-nah-KWAY) and [...]
Leaving Las Vegas
So we’re talking places we’ve been to or lived in this week. The weirdest for me was Vegas. I lived there for a year. One of my kids was born there. I hated every minute of it, from the time I stepped off the plane to the time I drove out of the valley flipping [...]
Want To Buy Witty Title
I haven’t lived anywhere near as many different places as some of the Novelty Girls — like, I bet Lori, who used to be in the military, has some great stories. *grins* I’ve lived a total of three places in my admittedly short-in-comparison life: Olympia, Washington (my hometown); Lewisville, Texas; and Sharon, MA.
There’s been very [...]
Where The Weird Things Are
As most of you know, my mom was in the film industry as well as being a free spirited gypsy queen, so we moved A LOT. As I child I went coast to coast: L.A., Texas, New York, Oregon, New York, back to L.A. back to New York, Texas etc. Occasionally we’d end up in places [...]
She Said, She Said
We’re starting a new trend at The Novelty Girls. I’ll start a topic at the beginning of the week, and it can be funny or controversial or anything we can think of, and all the other Novelty Girls will post their takes on that topic throughout the week. Considering how diverse our backgrounds and interests are, it could get very interesting around her. 
We may not be doing this every week, but we’ll do it a lot. Stay tuned!
Since we’re from all over the country–and even have a token Canadian–I thought we’d talk about the weirdest places we’ve lived or been. Feel free to add yours to the comments if we remind you of one in your area!
A Father’s Day Story
To kick off our new theme for The Novelty Girls, I’d like to tell you a story.
When my Dad was in the Marine Corps, he was a tough Drill Instructor in Texas training men to face the rigors of combat.
New recruits were tormented then much more than they are now and Dad would line them [...]

Will they televise anything??
Put this in your wtf file.
It’s true, y’all. For the third year, the USA Rock Paper Scissors League Championship will be televised — this time as an hourlong Best Damn Sports Show Period special on Fox Sports in October. The event will take place the weekend of June 20 in Las Vegas.
Go read the rest [...]

It was roasting on my recent trip to California, so in honor of that, we have a quiz on one of my favorite summer foods. Ice cream! Yay!
