When I was in high school, my buddy convinced me to try out for the wrestling team. Not a great idea. I spent a few afternoons in a smelly sub-basement. Hugging sweaty guys. With cauliflower ears. And bad breathe. AND the coach wanted me to starve myself so that I could drop a weight class....
Are You Hurting Your Best Friend?
My best friend was about 1 foot tall, and weighed 20 pounds. We got Romeo when he was just a puppy. And I was the one lucky enough to train him. I spent about an hour a day doing it. First, teaching him to only go outside. Next, to sit and lay down. After that,...
My Friend Has HUGE Hands . . .
I have a friend. Her hands are enormous. Huge hands. Once, she put her hands over mine, and you couldn’t even see mine. She can play baseball without a mitt. She can provide shade for a small child on a bright day, simply by putting her hands over his head. What I mean to say,...
I Screwed Up . . .
My wife always says that I’m not any good with technology. That I’m set in my ways. That I can’t adjust to modern times. That I’m a dinosaur. Every once in a while, she is proved right. Last night, I got the following email from a long time customer, Alia. She said: “I was looking...

Nano Is The New Black.
When I was in high school, I was a fashion disaster. Bleached cut-off jean shorts. White muscle shirt tank-tops. Long hair, almost below my shoulders. I was like an extra out of a bad 80s movie. When I got to college, I got a little better. Somebody told me that black was always in fashion....
I’m Fat!! My House is Dirty!! HELP!!!!
This week is a trying time for all of us. And not just Dallas Cowboy fans. (Man, am I happy they stink!!!) Thanksgiving is probably my favorite holiday. Family and friends gathered around the dining room table, and the warm glow of football from the TV screen. That’s what life is all about. Unfortunately, all...
Are Your Personal Care Products DEADLY?
Even though we’ve had to bail them out in consecutive World Wars, Europeans do get some things right. Coffee in outdoor cafes is nice. So is taking all of August off for vacation. Another thing that the Europeans get right, in my humble opinion, is banning many chemicals from personal care products. These are the...
Poop Your Way To Health?
I am pretty much an all-natural health nut. I also love trying new things. So, it is pretty easy to get me to try anything new related to natural health. Well, I have a friend who told me about castor oil. And she was pretty insistent about taking it. Pretty much every time I spoke...
Little People Love Me
It’s been that way forever. I remember when I was in college, I dated a girl just a shade under 5 feet tall. Little hands. Little feet. Very nice. Very smart. Very pretty. Just, very little. And she liked me a LOT. But it’s not just people. Little pets and little kids love me too....
