When you really think about it, commuting is a recipe for disaster. You need to get to your soul-sucking job, or you already had an awful day at that soul-sucking job, so you hop into a metal box that can travel extremely fast, then maneuver it onto...
Update: Woohoo! Yay! Hell yeah! The World Health Organization has just now come out stating that, as far as they can tell, there’s no real evidence that our companion animals — dogs and cats, at least — can be infected by the new coronavirus, or COVID-19. Now,...
It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that the sun can’t hurt you, especially on cloudy days. After all, how could you possibly get a sunburn when it’s overcast and cold out? The answer is, easily enough that you’d be smart to make putting on sunscreen part...
Anyone who recently shaved their head, or went bald, will tell you that a combination of sunscreen and hats is the only thing forestalling their dome from turning into one giant blister due to the sun blasting it with powerful radiation all day long. One time I...
