We’ve had viewers in Mexico, Brazil, New Zealand, and England, not to mention here in the U.S. from sea to shining sea - from New Jersey to Oregon. From Montana to Florida. From Texas to N...
I owe a lot of people an apology. As many know, I was sick as a dog after coming back from Arizona. I felt fine there, but my daughter’s family all came there sick, and how do you tell a three year old not to kiss you goodnight? – So, as expected, both my wife and I got sick when we got home – but she was only bad for a day or two – for me … we’re talking ten days of bad chest congestion and constant coughing as I tried to cough up the crap lining my lungs. The main point being, it took me out o...

I’m not saying let’s go kill all the stupid people … I’m just saying let’s remove all the warning labels and let the problem sort itself out. When I asked, “How stupid can you be?” it wasn’t supposed to be a challenge. I’ve decided to add “extensive experience dealing with stupid people” to my resume. That has GOT to be a marketable skill. Stupid people are like glow sticks. You want to slap them and shake the poop out of them until the light comes on. If I could get paid by the amount of stupid people I deal with at work instead of by the hou...
