The brilliant minds at Babelgum bring us the pint-sized reenactment of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. And let me say you don’t know Jersey, until you’ve heard a ginger-headed six-year-old utter Caroline’s legendary line: “If you’re going to mess with my family, you’re messin’ with me!” Stop what you’re doing right this minute and [...]

Koopa the turtle is going places. Do your day a favor and listen as Koopa belts out some Etta James. He’s got lip synching down, even though turtles don’t have any lips. According to finger-on-the-pulse site Buzzfeed, amateur herpetologists know Koopa the Box Turtle as the turtle who paints. (Some are for sale on ebay [...]

Not sure why the Mad Men at Quizno’s decided that cute disembodied kitten faces will make you want to eat more foot-long subs, but this new commercial most definitely does not do it for me. I’d much rather watch this surprised kitten or these vacuum-riding kittens. Add a little cute to your day, but hold [...]

It’s got SMASH written all over it. With Ryan’s power ring (and his six-pack abs) I’ll go out on a [...]

July is National Watermelon Month, so proclaimed by Congress. Did you know that the United States produces 4,200,000,000 pounds of watermelon annually and it’s grown in 49 States? (I’m guessing Alaska is stuck on wolf hunting.) Read the House Proclamation here. Or enjoy these darn cute pictures of polar bears eating watermelon. This weekend I’m [...]

The “ridiculously handsome” Old Spice Guy bids a fond farewell. But before he goes, how about letting him help you build your own Old Spice Guy voice mail greeting using Isaiah Mustafa’s very own “ridiculously handsome” voice. Call my house. I’m in the shower. I’m on a horse. Now, look at your man, now back [...]

Last weekend, I was back on the fabulous Cindy Dole’s radio show, Home Wizards, to talk about my summer passion: garage sailing! Tis the season, and I’m trying to head out every weekend this summer to hunt for treasure. Cindy’s helpful show also features other handy home hits, like these great moving tips and guides [...]

Westland, Michigan is taking the concept of mud-wrestling to a whole new level with the annual Mud Day event, where they crown one lucky, muck-covered girl Mud Queen. These girls spent the day playing in the mud lake, which was created by mixing 20,000 gallons of water with 200 tons of topsoil. About 1,000 children [...]
