When my wife married me she knew that she’d get all of my bad habits, large comic book collection, as well as Wilson, Abby, Ripley and Gianni. Wilson and Abby are our two retrievers and Ripley and Gianni are the two cats that I rescued from a box when they were only a couple weeks old. When I got the chance to review Mr.Chewy.com it was as natural a fit as cat hair on the sofa. Continue reading Our cats and dogs loved the treats from Mr. Chewy.com –and giveaway!

Bertolli Meal Soup makes a weekday dinner special
In my perfect world I make the week’s dinners for the family on Sunday afternoon. They’re then put in the freezer in plastic containers with matching tops and I have plenty of time to watch Once Upon A Time before I go to sleep. In reality my Sunday’s are lazy, unproductive days where the family plays outside and I’m lucky to watch an episode of Bait Car.

The VW “Is it Fast” Commercial Gets Dads Down Pat
As a Dad I’m highly critical and a bit sensitive to the way that advertisers or entertainers portray Dads. All too often Dads in the media are portrayed as ‘dumbass dads’ who excel at failure or are aloof and come up short at anything they do. Tide’s stay-at-home-dad spot got it right in their recent television ad and now VW does it right too. Continue reading The VW “Is it Fast” Commercial Gets Dads Down Pat
Blue Ivy and other bizarre baby names
Congratulations go out to Jay Z and Beyonce who welcomed their first child into the world. Congratulation also goes out to them for joining other (mainly) celebrities who’ve given their child a bizarre, potentially punitive name. Continue reading Blue Ivy and other bizarre baby names
The Muppets fit like a green hand puppet
I didn’t really like The Muppets as a child. It aired from ’76 to ’81 and I was too into The Six Million Dollar Man or thought that The Muppets were just for little kids. However, my mother loved The Muppets and would watch them every week. Because of that, I do have some memories of watching Pigs in Space and other Muppet skits during Steve Austin’s commercial breaks. Continue reading The Muppets fit like a green hand puppet
The Ramones & Arnold Schwarzenegger get rid of diaper rash
Any parent of a newborn will wrestle with the issue of diaper rash. For those without children, diaper rash is a rash on the child’s skin, usually on their bottom. It looks like it hurts. I imagine sand spurs on my bottom, then duct tape them to my skin when I want to equate the pain that our newborn is having.
