Let me say this about that. Every so often, we hear a story that shakes our confidence that man is really at the top of the food chain. There was the recent news coverage of the lady in the Florida Keys who caused an accident while driving down the highway as she shaved her “coochie”. But hell, everyone living in […]
Let me say this about that. Most of my friends know that I’ve been around a bit and thoroughly enjoy international travel – in particular to exotic destinations. So an old buddy called the other day and asked if I might be interested in a trip to the Galapagos Islands. Now, I know for those of you living […]
Let me say this about that. What is the strangest thing you have ever eaten?

This year’s analysis consisted of testing 382 store-bought […]
Let me say this about that. There are a number of things in this life that I find unpleasant. Going to the dentist for a root canal is certainly one. Standing in line at the driver’s license bureau also ranks in the top five. Being forced to hold some slobbering newborn is certainly not my cup […]
Let me say this about that. I have been studying the current administration’s economic stimulus packages. Not because I don’t have a life and have nothing better to do. I am doing it because I have discovered a mathematical phenomenon that has been overlooked, not only by the general public, but by the Obama economic […]
