Outer space is boring. I don’t care about hot balls of gas or giant rocks spinning in the sun’s gravitational pull that may or may not support life. I don’t see the point in flying huge rockets out there to check things out. And looking at it with a telescope is social suicide – unless youâ€...

Would you believe I finally got the very first stamp on my passport? The Ninja brought me along on an all-expense paid trip to a resort in Mexico! He kicked some butt at work and earned a vacation that began on his birthday. We kicked off the last year of his 20s at the Pueblo Bonito Rose in Cabo Sa...

Along with my appreciation for strange British Humor. Let's face it, we in America wouldn't have been able to pull this off without a fart joke or two. Thanks to my cousin Dylan for the link.
