Looking through old photographs allow you to remininsce of good times with family and friends. Pictures stir emotions of the past. Capturing happy events, people & places of years gone by. Well, sometimes. Just the other day I found a photo from a family vacation during my childhood. I was about eight years old, …
It’s all about confidence, baby. When you’re looking good–you’re feeling good. But when I saw the commercial, I felt…..slighted. That maybe, I wasn’t…good…..enough? You see, as a mammal, we have hair. But as a guy we have hair, and sometimes lots of it, in weird places. According to the ad, to get …
Now that mask mandates are being lifted faster than a Kardashian tummy-tuck, only one question remains. What are you to do with all those leftover masks? You can’t donate them.

Maker of the popular air fryer (we have), coffee makers, food processors, blenders (we have), toaster ovens, cookers, just about anything you can think of—Ninja makes it. Well, sort of. …
So many of my shirts come with extra buttons–but I’m not sure why. I have never used any of them. They are always just there. Hanging around. Riding the coattails (shirttails, in this case). Patiently waiting for their big break. Their opportunity to show what they can do. They are like a fastener under-study. The kid …
