The Decade Explained
Posted by: | Comments
Pretty sure this kid has something "new" in his pants by the look on his face
It’s simple: I attest that there is a new decade knocking at our collective door. It begins on January 1, 2010.
Here’s the math.
The millenium ended on 12/31/1999. Prince has substantiated this in the legendary song “1999.”
Thus, the first day of the new century was 1/1/00. New century AND a new decade. You’re really telling me that centuries and decades begin in different years?
From 1/1/00 to 12/31/00, we lived 365.25 days. By all measurements, that equals one year.
Thus (and I’m going to show my work for once):
1/1/00 to 12/31/00 = 1
1/1/01 to 12/31/01 = 2
1/1/02 to 12/31/02 = 3
1/1/03 to 12/31/03 = 4
1/1/04 to 12/31/04 = 5
1/1/05 to 12/31/05 = 6
1/1/06 to 12/31/06 = 7
1/1/07 to 12/31/07 = 8
1/1/08 to 12/31/08 = 9
1/1/09 to 12/31/09 = 10
Ten years, bitches.
Therefore, I am done with this decade and moving on to a new one. Check out Closing My Decade: a Redhead in Review. And if you haven’t done so, start off your New Year on the right foot by becoming a fan of Redhead Writing on Facebook. We have Taco Thursdays, No Pants Tuesdays and Freeball/Freeboob Fridays.
Your Thursday Nights are Booked, Bitches…

It's here! The beginning of Geeks Who Drink with The Redhead!
You have been patient, and for that I thank you. But grab your Google calendars and block out Thursday evenings – you’re gonna be bizzy gettin’ your quiz on with The Redhead!
I’m the appointed Quizmaster for Geeks Who Drink at the brand-freakin’-new Rackhouse Pub. Convenient to Central Denver, Broadway and all that is cool in school, here are the deats:
Thursdays (except Thanksgiving) at 8pm
The Rackhouse Pub
and here’s a MAP for the navigationally-challenged.
Our first quiz is on Thursday, November 12 at 8pm, followed by a big-ass quiz/tweetup/toy drive event on the 19th.
If you haven’t checked out the menu for The Rackhouse, have a gander. All sorts of nummies from burgers to greens and mac-and-cheese. There are plenty of veggie offerings and it looks like the gluten-free fans have some choices as well! For you lushes, there are over 20 craft brews on tap and The Rackhouse features Colorado’s own Stranahan’s Whiskey.
And here’s an insider tip: go to the Geeks Who Drink website (now) and on the right hand side, you’ll see a place to get on the mailing list (Let’s Stay in Touch). Use the drop-down menu to select the Rackhouse Pub. This will send you category teasers for each week’s quiz along with the Sacred Internet Bonus Question. The Internet Bonus Question is only available via email, so get your schiz together and register for the email list now.
The Redhead’s quiz will be sponsored by ToyWithMe.com. For those who didn’t know, I’m their resident sex advice columnist and throughout my Geeks tenure, they’ll be showering you with condoms and other sexy prizes. That means if you suck one week at Quiz, you’re not going to catch anything unsavory. 
We’ll see you at quiz! It’s time for Denver to get its geek on…
Is That a Dildo in Your Pants? Announcing…
Posted by: | Comments
Yours Truly...the newest columnist for ToyWithMe.com!
“That redhead – she says the darndest things!”
“She uses the f-bomb like it’s a comma…”
“Her Gchat status says ‘looking for a man with an economic stimulus plan — IN HIS PANTS.’”
It’s true. I have no censor button. The news was bound to get out sometime.
Well over a month ago, some guy named Paul emailed me through this very blog and asked me to check out his website because they were looking for columnists. I stopped by, intrigued by the (blink, blink) content, and the email fell off my radar (as sometimes emails do). About 2 weeks ago, this guy Paul emails me again and is like WTF?! We want you! What do we have to sacrifice to get you?
After he sent photographic proof that the requested sacrifice had been performed, I inked the bottom line and agreed to ration my brand of Redheaded Fury on his site. And it’s a cool fucking site, too.
Seriously: it’s a cool fucking site.
Announcing that yours truly, The Redhead, is the newest advice columnist for ToyWithMe.com and is launching the weekly column Dear Redhead this Thursday!
Got a sexy question or a question about sex, dating and relationships? Go ahead and send your questions to theredhead at toywithme dot com. Each week, I’ll answer two to three questions with an appropriate amount of factual content and a requisite amount of snark. Really – I can’t believe someone is giving me the opportunity to dole-out advice, but I’m completely stoked. ToyWithMe has done a brilliant job of listing my qualifications as well (thanks, guys – street cred is important, yo), so if you don’t like the fact that I got my own column, suck it. You’re nothing that baby wipes and a shovel can’t rectify.
You can follow my new column and all the Redheaded happenings on Twitter – just add @DearRedhead to your feed. And I need questions! Send your questions to the email address above and if I like your brand of inquisitiveness, we’ll dish like schoolgirls in cyberspace. If I don’t like it, I may select your question anyway and thrash you openly on the interwebz with a large purple vibrator (complete with kickstand and backup power supply).
So bring it, bitches. Here’s what you need to do now:
- Add @DearRedhead and @ToyWithMe to your Twitter feed
- Subscribe to ToyWithMe’s RSS feed (don’t miss a single moment of sexy snark)
- Email your questions about sex, dating and relationships to The Redhead (please use a pseudonym or one will be assigned to you)
- Mark Thursdays on your calendar. #NoThongThursday just got a whole lot sexier!
Oh, and did I mention that the site’s tagline is I have a vagina and I’m not afraid to use it ??? (love that)
And do not click this link unless you want to see the sexiest vibrator ever made (RAWR).
