Solve Acne!
Did you know that "acne cure" and similar phrases are among the most-searched items online and have been for years? It's true. More people search for acne and acne-related terms than just about... ...
Franchising
Working for yourself is most people's dream. I can tell you from personal experience that the dream is a little overrated, but definitely worthwhile. If you have perseverance, dedication, self... R...
Rehab, Rehab
I know that it's the In Thing to go to rehab these days. Basically every Tom, Dick, and Lindsay with a pocketful of blow can wreck their car into a preschool and go to "rehab" for 30 days and get... ...
Necessities Should be Fashionable
I am one of those "function over fashion" people: I don't much care how it looks, so long as it performs well. That being said, if I have the choice between something purely functional and something....
Boats
I grew up on a pond - actually two. It's true, and that may have something to do with why I got into comics so heavily as a child; there just weren't that many people around and there's only so much....
Go Away!
Very nicely done - well laid-out and extremely informative - Sherman's Travels is your premiere travel destinations site. With information on various cities and locations, cheap flights, breaking... ...
Failing Memory
At a mere 33, my memory fails fairly recently - especially when it comes to writing. I always seem t have the word I need right on the tip of my tongue, yet can never get it just right. That's why.....
Commercial Real Estate
One of the great things I learned from filing taxes is that you can write-off your commercial rent. While I work from home, and was only able to write-off a small portion (the actual size of my home....
Sad, but True
It is sad but true that today, you simply cannot afford to go without security. You need an alarm for your car, an alarm for your home - even GPS-tracking implants for your pets! But while it is... ...
Weight Loss
I have always been thin - I mean skinny. It's proven very difficult for me to gain weight throughout my lifetime. A lot of people think this is a good thing, but it really isn't - being underweight....
The Finer Things
I told you before I was thinking of getting into wines - it just seems a natural fit for me, being a collector and artist, and all. Now, the truth is that I can't tell a fine wine from whatever... R...
Vacheron Watches
I am one of those people who has a sort of "natural" sense of fashion. This isn't bragging, by any means, I am just saying that what appeals to me is usually considered stylish by others. I don't......
Is It Really a Miracle Drug?
I don't Oprah. I used to catch an episode here and there when I lived with my folks, and I specifically watched the one where she berated and humiliated that poor author, but I don't Oprah. Of... R...
Polkadot Patch
Children's "fashion" is a little hoity-toity for my taste. I mean, kids are kids: they're going to get dirty and messy and they don't particularly care about what they are wearing. But a lot of... ...
Office Decor
I love working from home, though I do wish I had a room dedicated to my work - a home office. Still, I make-do with what I have and it serves me quite well... except for the furniture. My desk is......
Skin Health
When I was younger, I had awful acne. The thing about something like acne is that, while it isn't exactly a life-threatening malady or anything, it can be quite devastating. It primarily affects... ...
Maternity Jeans
A chick I once knew could not understand my attraction to pregnant women. I really do find them extraordinarily beautiful, even if they are fatty-fat-fats. I really do think they have that "glow"......
Conventional Insurance?
The convention season is upon us. Yes, we geeks know that Summer brings with it a slew of comics and gaming conventions, and while the mainstream likes to crow about how much it loves one in... Read...
Branding Made Easy
One of the first, and most important things, in starting a business is a little something called "branding." If you don't know what that is, it simply means choosing a specific design, look, and... ...
Neat and Tidy and Presentable
I am truly thinking of getting into wines. It isn't so much that I like drinking wine, it's more that I would rather drink wine than anything else I can think of, and it denotes a certain lifestyle.....
Bedding and Comforter Sets
I am an Americana kind-of guy. While I often bemoan the state of my country, I do love the ideals on which it was founded and I guess I'm something of a patriot - to whatever degree or extent such......
Roadkill Tees
We brought you a post or two from Roadkill T-shirts before and that is where I first learned of them. In doing that review, I (like always) surfed on over to take a gander at their website and see......
Faster, Faster, 'Puter-cat
Yes, that... that title is definitely a stretch. Anyway, many years ago, specifically with earlier models and operating systems, one of the surest methods of making your computer faster was to get......
Shop for Computers Online
I have wanted a laptop pretty much since I got into computing. Well, not exactly - laptops back then weren't exactly what they are today, to say the very least - but at least since around Win95 or......
It's Not Just Me
I have said before - several times over - that a lot of my gaming and comics friends have weight problems. I don't bring this up because I want to make fun of them - after all, I have the opposite......
Autos and Insurance
