If you watch any sports shows, you'll hear about this: link 1, link 2, link 3.
I support it.

I could have sworn old-school Gatorade didn't have a ton of sugar in it, and I was surprised to find that modern Gatorade - including Tiger Woods' "Tiger" version - is basically water, sugar, dye, and a little flavoring. And worse yet, it's not sugar, but HFCS.
Did it change at some point? Or has Gatorade [...]

So, we're considering adopting a greyhound. It seems it's the only way to get one, after all. Though part of me loved being "in control" from the get-go (or, well, about nine weeks old anyway) with my former canine pal, part of me is looking forward to not having to get up three times per [...]

You know, it's pretty lousy when you get to ride about ten kiddie rides in eight hours at an amusement park for the low, low price of about $100. How about discounted rates based on height? How about "parent tickets" that account for the height of your kid and correspondingly restrict you to riding only [...]

I just recently purchased a coin from Poland: a 1995 2 Zlote coin. It's a two-tone deal and it'll make a pretty nifty ball maker (when playing golf).
The coin came from Uruguay and took almost three weeks to arrive, but I'm happy to have it. 1995 was my best competitive year, and given that I'm [...]

Crocs cost $30? I just picked up two pair - fortunately with a good coupon at Dick's - and was amazed that they normally sell for $29.99. I've heard only good things though, so we'll see. Black XL and a small pair of blue ones, kid's choice.
Do you own a pair of Crocs? Yes No View [...]

Wonder what that looks like? Oh, about like this:

Greg Norman, at the age of 53, nearly won the British Open. I kept a live blog for The Sand Trap, but wow. Is this what a Tiger-less world looks like? 53-year-olds nearly winning major championships?

For about a year now, we've had a small albino catfish in our fish tank, and for a year now he's acted as if he's been near death. He'll lie upside down on the bottom of the tank for hours. Or he'll lie pointing straight down. Or on his side. At times he'll go crazy [...]

11:19:56: My Drafts folder has 34 saved messages.
12:20:50: 15 messages await. Three were deleted, two or three new ones created (and sent), and the others sent.
12:53:54: 1 message left, and it's a message I can't send for a few days anyway (more of a reminder). So, woo, only about 90 minutes.

I'd have made this a poll, but I don't know what all of the options are, so I'll simply put the question here and let you post in the comments:
What things have you done to lessen your negative impact on the environment?
Switched to CFLs? Bought a hybrid? Drive less? Turn off lights and other appliances [...]

Happy Birthday, U.S. of A.
We went to the beach, to Sara's, the parade, and a few other little things. Fun day.

On June 29, I departed Erie International Airport to fly to San Diego. I arrived in San Diego at 9pm local time.
The sole purpose of my trip was to meet with a golf equipment company and then to play golf.
I checked a total of one bag - a golf travel bag with my clubs inside [...]

I'm off to California for a very, very short trip today.
I've been watching the weather in Carlsbad, CA for a few weeks now, and it's true what they say about San Diego weather: 75 and sunny. Every. Day.
