Forget that I just got married.  What you should be focused on was the goddam miracle of mother nature which occured on the honeymoon in Cancun.  I captured it, and it’s about to go viral (seriously though, I know people of the Tube, and this in a confirmed viral load).

Yoga is for dickheads.  And I don’t even try to stretch before or after a workout anymore.  Still, I’ve managed to stay limber and sprightly nearly all my life.  The key is taking a solid cat nap each and every day.  There’s something about contorting my torso in half while pointing my limbs in uncompromising directions that I [...]

Since time immemorial, scholars have debated, Hipster or shark?  With any reckoning, the real question is where the two would meet. The ocean or the city?  Hipsters can’t swim and sharks abhor irony.  Neither will do.
