Men’s Health: Movember Update 3
How do you turn an American Redneck into an English gentleman? Apparently you shave the handlebars off of his Mo, comb his hair, and put a bow tie on him. That’e me, there to the left, and this is me last week, showing my redneck roots.
Movember has been a fun thing for me to participate [...]
Movember update 2
This is me, early this morning. As FussyPants would say, “Fight the Frump!”
So, here we are on day seven of Movember. I can grow a pretty killer ’stache in just six days, yes? Let’s not talk about the hair.
People are starting to ask me about the facial hair, so that means it’s doing it’s job.

I shaved this morning. I normally maintain a 2 - 3 day scruff, so it feels a little odd to be clean shaven and then posting that on the interweb, but here ya go. Also, yesterday when I mentioned that I’d be posting pics, I conveniently forgot that my camera is broken, so I’ll be [...]

Most great religions of the world, and many doctors and medical professionals, recommend a monthly fast to cleanse the body. [...]
The Xbox Conundrum - Is Video Game Addiction for Real?
Is video game addiction real? It depends on who you ask. Psychologists and sociologists are debating this question as we speak.

Caring for A Chronically Ill Spouse
My wife has had a chronic illness for about 13 years. We’ve been married for about five and a half. The whole time I’ve known her she has suffered from this debilitating condition, called Neurocardiogenic Syncope, that causes her to pass out or become very weak several times each day.
