Mountain Dew in the Glass Bottle is Affecting my Beer Drinking

My life changed three days ago. My girlfriend comes home and says, "Hey babe, I got you a surprise; let me go grab it out of the car." I never could've imagined that she would pick the PERFECT surprise. While shopping at her local Target, she stumbled upon heaven in a glass bottle. That's right, folks ... Mountain Dew ... in a glass bottle!

I LOVE Mountain Dew. Every once in a while you can ... << MORE >>

Why I Support Marriage Equality

I support marriage equality because it's unfair for the State to grant one group of humans rights that another group of humans can't experience, largely based on outdated, religious programming.

America's founding fathers understood the importance of the separation of Church and ...

Dr. Drew and VH1 Responsible for the Death of Mindy McCready?

I've been wanting to address Dr. Drew Pinsky's show Celebrity Rehab for quite some time now. After looking through my notebook of potential blog topics, it appears as though my initial inspiration to write about the dangers of this television show came in September of 2011.

Unfortunately, I ... << MORE >>

Stop Wasting Salt on Beer Napkins!

I just can't take it anymore. Somebody has to say something. I'll be that warrior.

I've been a beer drinker for quite some time. When I go to a pub or restaurant, I often drink draft beer. While waiting for my draft beer, the bartender or server will, in ... << MORE >>

New Rules Regarding the Social Contract of Tipping

Behold! Let all those with eyeballs understand the following:

If you choose to enter an establishment where you are being "waited upon" by a server (waitress) or bartender, you MUST tip them ... no matter what.

As a bartender, I work for tips. I do my very best to ensure I provide the highest-caliber of customer service to my guests. I make it a point to remember their names (in most cases), which causes my ... << MORE >>

Why Tim Tebow's Public Praying Ruined His NFL Career

I like Tim Tebow. I admire his attitude and spirit. I even went out and purchased a Denver Broncos "Tim Tebow" shirt to wear during last year's playoffs. My beloved Redskins didn't make the playoffs in 2011, so I decided to pull for Tebow and his Broncos.

Navigating Glitches in the ZTE Warp Sequent

I've been a loyal Boost Mobile customer for a few years now. Signing up for automatic debit ensured that I always paid my bill on time. As many of you know, every six months you pay your bill on time, your monthly payment drops by $5. I had finally reached the milestone of $35 per month on my Samsung Prevail (it was Grandfathered in), when I decided to upgrade to the ZTE Warp Sequent.

My 2013 New Year's Resolution: Facebook Fridays

Greetings beautiful creatures of Earth, and surrounding areas. It's time for everyone's annual New Year's Resolution (NYR)!

Last year, I must say, my NYR was a complete success. I don't fall into the category of folks who are "going to start working out," or start "getting organized." I've already mastered those elements of life, so they've become second-nature.

So ... for my 2012 NYR, I decided to start playing the lottery every week! While in deep meditation, the following revelation ... << MORE >>

Why You Should Never Say 'I Love You, Too'

If you've been a loyal follower of my writing over the past couple of years, you'll know that I'm rather quirky when it comes to human communication and proper execution of the English language.

I often find myself looking down on people who don't understand the difference between "your" and "you're."

I also hate when people go through the robotic "How are you?" ritual. "Oh, I'm fine," they say. Meanwhile, ... << MORE >>

Religious Delusion: The Parents Who Killed Their Son With Prayer

Russel and Brandi Bellew of Eugene, Oregon, have been sentenced to five years probation after pleading guilty to negligent homicide, following the death of their 16-year-old son, Austin Sprout.

In December, Austin became ill with flu-like symptoms. Instead of seeking medical attention, his parents chose to pray. The couple belongs to the General Assembly and Church of the First Born, which doesn't believe in modern medicine. They subscribe to the erroneous theory projected in a New Testament ... << MORE >>

The Exploitation of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo

And then I watched another episode. And another. And another. An entire marathon of Here Comes Honey Boo Boo was embedded into my consciousness. And then I realized that I was, sorta kinda, falling ... << MORE >>
