Parents the world over warn us that eating before executing an epic belly flop into the pool results in debilitating cramps that impede our ability to stay afloat. When we do indulge in some poolside grub, they demand we wait at least 30 minutes before diving into...
When your home or apartment is so freakin hot that you feel swaddled in a wet rag that’s been microwaved on high; when sweat seems to be erupting out of your pores; when there is zero wind passing through your open windows — what the hell do...
