I ran across this little gem the other day and it compelled me to write. Regardless of my social media banterings, I tend to be a little bit slow on the uptake on these sorts of “phenomenons”.
- I’d never heard of a Leap Pad until the wife told me I had to be at Target five mornings a week before 8:00 AM to get one.
- I’d never heard of The Elf On The Shelf until last year (Charlie in our house for those keeping track).
- I have no idea what Pinterest is or why I would want to use it.… Continue reading
I recently posted this picture to my Facebook page. Now I know that Crocs aren’t “cool” by any stretch of the imagination, but I have to say I was a little bit shocked at just how much people hate these shoes.
That's right... I'm wearing my Crocs to the Home Depot. I am dad... Hear me roar.
Interested in the responses? Here they are (some of them had me rolling)…
- not cool..lmao!
- Yuck
- Lowes is much better
- you shouldn’t be wearing those unless you’re mario batali or 6.
- -5 cool points
- I see no problem with this…
- Fressssssshhhh!

Luckily I work in an office environment where jeans are acceptable work attire. That said I wear them most days (when I don’t have a client meeting) and I had a thought cross my mind this morning – over or under?
Most of my jeans have these tags along the belt line. Many brands give you the option of putting your belt under the tag so you can still see it. I’ve always been one to thread the belt under but I found myself wondering if this was normal (these are the kinds of thoughts that keep me from… Continue reading
I live in Cleveland, Ohio. I grew up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Anyone who knows anything about the NFL knows that one of the greatest rivalries in the sport is the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cleveland Browns.
They hate each other. Their fans hate each other. The two cities hate each other.
That said, there are a few people living in Cleveland that like the Steelers and I happen to be one of them. I’m a lifelong Steelers fan and I always will be. I bleed Steeler blood. I hate when my team loses and I go crazy when they win. … Continue reading
OK. Some people call it soda, some call it pop, some call it Pepsi, others still call it a soft drink. Just so we’re clear, I’m talking about the stuff that comes in a can/bottle that’s oh so refreshing.
So here’s my question — what the hell’s so damn bad about it? I’ve seen the emails about how it eats through bolts and can get blood off the highway. I’m not referring to that. Why is it so bad from a dieting perspective? If I’m on a diet why SHOULDN’T I drink this stuff? It’s got no carbs, no sugar,… Continue reading



Drive Through People – Please… Wipe Off My Drink
I’m a pretty level-headed guy. I tend to live my life with an “is what it is” or “roll with the punches” approach. There are not too many things that really piss me off. This happens to be one of them.
You drive through your favorite drive through and get your favorite tasty beverage. Invariably they hand you your drink and straw and there’s pop all over the outside of the cup! What… the… fuck! Is is so difficult to poor Pepsi, Coke, Mountain Dew, etc. into a cup and NOT get it all over the place? And if you… Continue reading →
