Sham-Wow vs. Zorbeez

Popular Mechanics actually tested out the two super-soaker towels... and Sham-Wow won, by a mile! It's pretty funny to watch the videos that follow the story... Billy Mays is so mad about the rival super-towel!

Here's a link to the article:

Also, a Happy Belated 13th (91st in dog years) Birthday to my Lucy Luchadora! Just three years until your sweet sixteen party... it will rival those seen on MTV... yeah, whatever!

Another baby? Not even maybe.

I swear if one more person asks me when I'm having another kid, I'm going to scream. Why is it when you pop out a kid, everyone expects you to pop out another one? Not too long ago, we were visting some friends, and I was asked if I had changed my mind about having another kid. I said, "Well, there are so many other things I want to do before I even think about having another kid, you know, like getting a job and buying a house." And she actually said this: "Oh, so maybe in another year?" What? Are you kidding me? So, I get a job and buy a house. Then I get knocked up and have to be at home with another baby. Now I can't afford day care for two kids, so I no longer can have the job that I just got, and then we probably won't be able to afford the house we want and all of the things we want to do. "No," was my response. "More like five years. In five years, I'll think about it, assess our situation and decide." And then I got t...

Greg Hodges Look-Alike Contest 2009

It seems like each day someone tells Greg that he looks like a different celebrity. So, now, I've decided to take it upon myself to take a vote and decide who he looks the most like! Take a good look at Greg: Now here are his famous look-alikes... Jason Segal We first saw him on How I Met Your Mother... we absolutely love that show, and Greg looks even more like 'Marshall' because he acts so very much like him!  Ryan Reynolds Greg claims that he looked like Ryan Reynolds in his prime. I, however, have seen pictures of Greg in his youth, and I have to say that he looked a lot like Screech Powers from Saved by the Bell. That brings me to our next contestant... Samuel "Screech" Powers Imagine Greg in high school... a scrawny 6'3" opposed to the lumberjack-ish Greg we know today. Imagine Greg's hair just a little bit longer... it would be just like Screech's... a head full of curls! I may just have to get my hands on an old school pic of Greg to pr...

Best Books of 2025 (oops! 2024)

 As I reflected on the books I read in 2025, I first picked the best books of each month. Here they are: As I chose a book for each month, I noticed that it was difficult to pick a favorite for each month. Some months there were multiple books that I really loved; other months, I read books that were just ok. Because of this, I wanted to add in some honorable mentions: Prior to ending the year with Just for the Summer by Abby Jimenez, I read the first two books in her  Part of Your World series: Yours Truly (book #2) and Part of Your World (book #1). Yours Truly was my December pick before reading Just for the Summer . Abby's writing style had me flipping through a 400 page book in just days! If you like rom-coms, give her books a try. Her The Friend Zone series has been added to my TBR. There were a few books that I reread this year: Yellowface , Daring Greatly , Now We're Talking , and Atomic Habits . Any book worth rereading deserves a mention! I started the year with...
