For some reason, today I was thinking about the cereal I used to eat as a kid. I had forgotten about all of the diabolically delicious, nutrient devoid breakfast cereals from the 80’s. It seems like the 80’s was the cereal boom – every week there was a new creation made up of the same ingredients as the last, but marketed for the cartoon, or character of the minute.
I love Seinfeld. My girlfriend hates Seinfeld. I am 32. She is 28. Is the age dividing line for Seinfeld worship really that thin? She just doesn’t get it. Every night after (or sometimes during) dinner we watch a full hour of Seinfeld on TBS. Sometimes I will »
Mint.com is one of my favorite websites and is a really useful resource for everything finance. They recently featured an article titled The Renter’s Manifesto that points out some common misconceptions about the benefits of buying a house versus renting an apartment.

If you have ever dreamed of receiving a round-house kick to the face from Nico Toscani, you might just be in luck. It seems that Steven Seagal, one of the most bad-ass, yet severely retarded action stars of the 90’s is actually a Jefferson Parish, Louisiana Sheriff. Thanks for the good people over at A&E we »
Music has a powerful way of evoking emotion and stirring memories of the past. Recently I picked up Pearl Jam’s new Album – Backspacer. I haven’t totally warmed up to the entire album, but it is definitely the Pearl Jam we knew and loved in the 90’s. It’s new and there are unfamiliar elements that »
High Cholesterol In Your Thirties?
I recently went to the doctor for a routine checkup and when I received the results of my blood-work the cholesterol numbers were not looking too good.
