Hi, I’m Jo!

In an alternate universe, I was Doctor Phil or Martha Stewart. Or Monica Belluci. Or Hemingway. Or Kitty Von Krusher. But mainly, I want to grow up to be just like Little Edie Beale. In this universe I’m a writer, journalist, podcaster, seeker, pet wrangler, wife, and a mother to the universe (in training).

Troll – What do Ogres, George Michael & Chrissy Teigen Have in Common?
byJo Vraca

If you think a Troll is an ogre from northern European mythology, a beast under the bridge, you’d be missing half the story. It’s about so much more. It’s also about big boulders that litter the Scandinavian countryside, Chrissy Teigen, eBay, Reddit and those cute little plastic toys we collected in the 80s that will make someone rich one day.

Mainly we’ll talk about internet trolls because they’re all around us.

Plus Creative Cursing from Around The World takes us to Serbia.
