When I first met Bianca, I was all “Hey, sure, I love wine!” even though I never actually knew anything about wine really. But I do know what I like, and what I like is fruit and toasted oak, especially when it’s involved with rich sauces, game, and salmon. And I was so happy when […]

As a fan of serialized television drama, it’s important that I become disappointed in my favorite shows in crystal-clear HDTV picture. Whether I’m bemoaning unexpected twists in Downton Abbey, or warning my friends not to watch the second season of Homeland, I prefer to become frustrated with my favorite series on a refurbed VIZIO. The […]

You’ve gotta get up pret-ty early in the morning to pull one over on me! Which is why I’m hoping you’ll buy this Breville YouBrew Coffee Maker. I’m bored. I miss the challenge of being pranked. Like, in college, I was ALWAYS in a prank war with somebody! I remember long nights with the built-in […]

Use this: if you believe it’s time to start replacing the out-of-date Zs with some fresh, forward-thinking Xs. This just posted on Facebook: “Am I on Facebook, or is Facebook on me??!?!?! :0” At the local watering hole, this would order: something in a tall glass. Not everything in life should be flat. Variety, people! […]

“Ah, the 17th green. One hole away from another successful round of golf. Hey, where’s Johnny?” Uh, that’s a good question. He had that fourth shot from the rough over there, but that one went onto the other tee box. “Do you think he’s lost?” He shouldn’t be. Remember, he has that CoursePro Elite Golf […]

“Pet hair, pollen, dust and dirt. A little dander never hurt! Pet hair, pollen, dust and dirt. A little dander never … Excuse me! Excuse me, sir!” Who? Me? “Yes. Do you have a minute to talk about the destruction of natural dust mite habitats through the process of vacuuming?” You’re kidding, right? “No, sir. […]

Hey, guess what? You’re a mom now. And in case you didn’t know, that’s code for “glorified pack mule.” No, no. I’m not making fun. I’m actually impressed that you can fit so many diapers, toys, snacks, bottles, a full-size umbrella, two ratchet sets, a big screen TV and a set of golf clubs in […]

Look at pictures of World War II, or paintings like Washington Crossing the Delaware, or movies like Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Do you see anybody kicking back and putting their feet up? Do you see anybody lounging around on all-foam cusions covered in rich upholstery? Rather than moving mountains and taming rivers, rather than fulfilling […]

Long ago, Zeus ordered his smith Hephaestus to build him a new graphics chip, and Hephaestus made a chip out of clay and named her ‘Super FX’. Zeus gave her a 16-bit game console and sent her to Earth, but warned her never to use the console. Super FX was very curious, and though she […]
