You Spend One-Third Of Your Day Watching TV

September 24, 2009

If you are reading this from America, you do. A new study purports to show us why we are so much stupider and fatter than the rest of the world. It says, in a tone I detect as condescending, that we Americans watch twice as much TV as anyone else in the world, to the [...]

New Study Says 9 Out Of 10 Have Premarital Sex

September 24, 2009

A new report, published by some place called the Guttmacher Institute in New York, states that nine out of 10 Americans have had premarital sex. Groundbreaking research there, I must say. But I do have just a couple of short observations about this. First off, I sure hope they did not waste spend a lot [...]

Double Urinal Solves What Problem?

Necessity, they say, is the mother of all invention. So what need prompted this? Never mind, I don’t want to know.

If You Must Check Your Facebook While Robbing A House, Make Sure You Log Off When You Are Done

September 19, 2009

What’s that old saw about criminals not being very bright? We have all heard a variation on it. So it should come as no surprise when they do dumb things, right? I mean you could probably fill a blog up every day with the stupid things criminals do. But every once in a while, their [...]

Best. Mugshot. Ever.

September 11, 2009

I have killed my fair share of time at work looking at mugshot pictures online. (come on, so have you, they’re hilarious.) If this is not the best one ever, it is certainly in the top 5. This man, Dale Alan Lee, was apparently arrested for aggravated assault, and you have to wonder, was it [...]

Life imitates the Simpsons: a 10 year old New York girl has been fined $50 for operating a lemonade stand without a license. Clementine Lee set up a lemonade stand in Riverside Park, New York Saturday as a way to raise some pocket money, but that was before not one, but three city officials pounced [...]

It’s Graduation Season – Hide Your Wallet

May 20, 2009

We have one graduation down, (preschool) and two to go, (kindergarten and 5th grade) and I am starting to think that like everything else in elementary school these days that has to be politically correct and equal, they are going to start having graduations for every grade so no one feels left out. That is [...]

Closer Fail – St. Louis Cardinals Pick Up Right Where They Left Off

April 6, 2009

St. Louis – Opening day around these parts is a big deal. St. Louis Cardinals baseball is in the blood in this town. We love our Cardinals. And why not? They are the oldest franchise west of the Mississippi, the most successful National League franchise ever, in terms of world championships with 10 titles, more [...]

My Very Own ‘Do You Wanna Get Away’ Moment

April 5, 2009

So here is a bit of a funny story/reminder as to why it is usually better to not be overly demonstrative with your road rage. It was Saturday morning and my turn to take my little girls to their dance class. We left in just enough time, and it was a beautiful spring morning. The [...]
