True Story
I am currently in a perpetual game of "Whack-a-Mole" with robo-calls on my cell phone. Whenever I see one I block their number from future contact. It's the only satisfying thing I can do with a spam call. When I see a number that looks suspicious, I will answer the call because; 1. I ow...

Reminder: In case you forgot, Duck Donuts are really awesome.
I'm not a Krispy Kreme fan and Dunkin' Donuts are a bit generic, like eating a hamburger at McDonald's. Duck Donuts, on the other hand, are made to order, best when they are hot, and 100% decadent. Ten years from now when I'm lying on th...

YouTube
I wish YouTube videos had a "Get To The Point" button.  Just click the button and it would go straight to the important stuff.  When I'm looking for information on how to replace a headlight on my car I don't need a seven minute lecture on the history of the 2011 Honda Pilot.  I don't c...

Parasailing
I used to own a parasail boat and it was extremely safe.  Our captains did a great job of taking care of the customers.  This video, however, is probably from a country with very lax regulations, if any.  My favorite comment comes from AFV which says, *removes parasailing from bucket

Nothing says, "Happy Holidays" like a giant ball of meat.
Remember when we were kids passing the giant Christmas meatball around the table and taking a big bite out of it? The toothpick, alone, was ginormous!
-Something I hope I don't live long enough to hear.

Hello Fresh
Several years ago we tried a subscription meal delivery plan to spice up our dinners. With Bonnie and I hustling in the kitchen for an HOUR(!) we made some pretty good food for which the kids quickly dismissed as being "just OK" if not declined entirely. There was no way in heck I was g...

Parade Crasher 
Several years ago my daughter was a Brownie in the Girl Scouts. Their leader organized them to march in the Manteo Christmas parade and as a parent I was at the beginning of the parade to help herd the cats. Just as the parade was starting my second child, a two-year old, fell down ...

Ted Lasso
As the shorter days and Eastern Standard Time have slowed things down in the evening, I’ve been circling back around to watch Ted Lasso for the second time. It has been a reminder that some of the quotes are pure gold.
