It’s one thing to be in a bar, and order Bailey’s or a drink that contains it, but to buy a bottle of Bailey’s Irish Cream at the liquor store has to be one of the most moronic actions any human can take.
You see, you are 100% paying for the brand name of Bailey’s. You [...]
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 [...]
Good friend Lance told me the following story the other night:
He was pulling into a parking lot somewhere here in Los Angeles, when a group of Mexican men started waving at him. Being polite, he waved back. Then all of a sudden all these guys started sprinting toward his Toyota pick-up truck. Once they got [...]
Recently I dropped off my baseball glove at a shoe repair place. This inside of my glove had torn up leather, so I wanted to get a thin leather patch sewn up in there.
Anyway, I dropped the glove off, and the guy there said it would cost $65. Fine.
So about a week later I go [...]
It’s a tough economy out there. Unemployment levels are high, and money seems scarce for many.
It’s only a matter of time before those in the food and restaurant business have to start cutting costs.
According to Robert, a co-worker of mine, it’s only a matter of time before businesses stop purchasing both forks and spoons.
With sporks, [...]
While watching the World Series, a Ford commercial popped on the TV. It seems a lot of these Detroit-based automakers have been trying to “hippen-up” their advertising and marketing campaigns.
Apparently Ford’s latest slogan is Ford — “Drive One.”
Wow. Must’ve took some real creative geniuses to come up with that shit.
Maybe whomever came up with that [...]
These days, pretty much all sports stadiums and arenas have corporate names. Big companies pay the money to have their names attached to the venues.
However, there are still a few stadiums out there that don’t have corporate names. Dodger Stadium, Yankee Stadium, etc.
It’s the inaugural season for the “new” Yankee Stadium, and while the Mets [...]
Especially these days, affordable medical insurance can be tough to come by. For me, I try to avoid doctor visits unless I absolutely have to go. If a problem can be diagnosed and solved without getting a doctor involved, I’m all for it.
Usually this means asking my mom, the Internet, or complete strangers on the [...]
For last 6 months or so, every weekday morning when I’d prefer to be still sleeping, construction noise from outside my window has disrupted my life, and made attempts to ruin it. To be honest, now that the framework of this new apartment complex is in place, it seems most of the work the construction [...]
That’s part of the appeal of my blog. I don’t care, and if I want to write about something that was more relevant 3 months ago, I can! During NCAA March Madness (back in March), I was watching one of the basketball games streaming live on the Internet. The feed came in pretty good for [...]
