The Worst Position in Football
I never played football growing up because my mom wouldn't let me. I was accident prone enough without adding eleven guys to the equation, all in pads (read: armor) trying their best to knock me on my almost-non-existent ass . But if I had played, there's one...

The Great Cereal Blog (part 2)
I don't look this gay. First, The Great Cereal Blog (part 1) Remember when you were a kid and it was a big deal to go to the grocery store? Do you recall why it meant so much to you? Did it by any chance have anything to do with the venerated cereal aisle? Ahh, that...
