Crying Wolf

Have you ever wondered what constitutes breaking news? It seems as though news stations are using this phrase at the slightest change in the world in an effort to get our attention. News happens regularly, so at what point can we decide that news is news, and not always “breaking” news? [...]

Chuck-It

Ever heard of a “chuck-it” ball launcher?  Well if you have a dog that likes to retrieve you’ll love this new product.  My sister-in-law first told us about it.  It’s about 2 feet long, and firmly holds a tennis ball at the end.  When you arch it back and sling it forward the ball flies [...]

Taking a Break

Spring is in the air! Today I begin my much-needed spring break vacation. What’s on my schedule? Erin and I are going to go to the beach for a few days. This will be our first beach trip with Weston. We plan on relaxing on the beach, taking in some [...]

Guiltner on Leno

Several years ago, I appeared on The Tonight’s Show with Jay Leno performing my tomato-eating feat. At the time, it was part of a scene I was performing called “Inside Out” where I played the part of a persistent produce salesman who would prove to his customers that the tomatoes he sold were [...]

CSI Mi-Hammy. . .

I seldom watch CSI anymore, but I stumbled upon this hilarious video. It is 7 minutes of funny intro lines from the main character in CSI Miami. If you have a few minutes to spare, check it out. I hope you find it as humorous as I.

What you’re looking at is a photo of a frog similar to the one viciously murdered in my yard by what appeared to be a Garter Snake or a Florida King Snake.
Today while relaxing in the house, we heard a high pitched squeeling sound coming from the back yard. The dog, Max, perked his [...]

Andy Barker, P.I.

I am convinced TV Executives must be on crack - and not just normal crack, but they have gotten a bad batch that has rendered them senseless. How hard is it to figure out that Andy Richter’s character of “Andy Barker, PI ” would be much more interesting, funny, and perhaps brilliant if given [...]

Losing Steam

This is the time of year when I feel most exhausted.  Most people don’t realize the intense energy that goes into a day’s work for a public school teacher.  In order for a teacher to be effective, they must emit a large amount of energy and focus when running a class.  It’s very similar to [...]

They’re Turning On Us!

In The News This Weekend:
HAILEY, Idaho - A house cat attacked its owner, sending her to the hospital by ambulance with more than 20 bite wounds.
The cat, a black and white domestic male, went on the rampage Wednesday when a neighbor showed up at the door with a different cat, mistakenly thinking it belonged to [...]

Gaffigan on Comedy Central

I recently watched Jim Gaffigan’s Beyond the Pale Tour on Comedy Central. I found the show very funny, and especially liked his routine on cake and Hot Pockets. Call me conservative, but I found the show very clean for today’s standards - which was a definite plus. If you want to [...]
