The other night for one reason or another, I found myself watching videos of cats and babies on YouTube.  Not separately of course, these were videos of cats and babies, together.  These two things combined form a deadly combination of cuteness!
Despite many of the horrible acts our species has committed, and will continue to commit [...]

I consider myself basically a decent person, but I’ll often think about doing (and saying) horrible things, with almost never following through on them.  To be honest, and especially under the influence of alcohol, I’m still much more likely to say something dumb than to do something dumb…..that’s just how I roll.
Anyway, last night I [...]

Yesterday during lunch I turn to a coworker who was eating chicken, and rambled, “I don’t understand.  Chickens have breasts?  I thought they’re birds, not mammals.”
Apparently I learned nothing in grade school.  I was told technically a breast is the muscle, and a breast is not defined by having a nipple, or by the ability [...]

Lol, wtf are these people all about?  Oh, they exist.
It’s definitely possible to be a fat vegetarian.   I believe Prince Fielder, the first baseman of the Milwaukee Brewers qualifies as one.
Although motivations for becoming a vegetarian can vary, many people choose such a lifestyle for health reasons.
I’m always intrigued and amused by the contradictions and [...]

Maybe this is more of an L.A. thing, but then again, maybe not.  Quite often I’ll be sitting in my car in a long line of cars in traffic.
Perhaps there are two lanes heading in each directions.  In between lanes, homeless people will often walk in between the cars seeking out donations.
This is when I [...]

Groundhog Day is pretty much a stupid and pointless holiday.  It’s filled with moronic superstition, but even worse we don’t even get off of school/work for it!
The stakes on Groundhog Day aren’t very high.  I say we up the ante.
If the groundhog does not see his shadow, it’s all good.  Winter will soon be over.
However, [...]

If you’ve ever ventured to sporcle.com, it’s filled with countless different fun quizzes that you can take.  It’s pretty much the best way to waste your time.
One quiz I took asked the question, “What are the top 10 countries in the world in terms of population of cats?”
The first country I guessed was the United [...]

I can’t imagine it would be sheep.   After spending all day long dealing with these sheep, the last thing they’d want to do is think about more sheep.
Perhaps sheep herders don’t really have much trouble sleeping.  I assume they’re working long days (you know, herding the sheep), and can often fall asleep shortly after the [...]

It’s just a risk you take when you (as a human) interact with wild animals. This goes for really any animal, too.  Whenever I hear on the news that a tiger, shark, sting ray, or even a domesticated dog attacked somebody, I am not surprised.
I mean, I’m not saying I want animals [...]

I really have a pretty simple rule.
Back when I was a kid, perhaps between the ages of 4-7, I did my fair share of stepping on ants (on purpose).  I grew out of that fairly quickly though, and started to become the warm and sensitive person that I am today.  Seriously, I’m not a big [...]
