Our #RockportChallenge, the review (& giveaway) of the shoes you need to know

We received the shoes for review. All thoughts are our own and sometimes I do things just to annoy or get a rise out of my wife. When we were offered the chance to take part in the #RockportChallenge (more on that in a moment), I looked over the shoes and my initial thought was “what is the most unlike me”? I then showed my choice to my better half, she said oh no, blah, blah something, but then my mind was made up that these were my next new shoes.

Win tickets to Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion-in theaters for only 1 showing

I remember seeing Star Wars with my dad in the theater. That was back in the day and he wasn’t too jazzed about it. Granted he was probably happy to hang out with me and that I was so happy to go. It’s a different scene now. On Saturday, September 27 at 10:45 there will be a one-time showing of Star Wars Rebels: Spark of Rebellion at Atlantic Station.

Life lessons from the doughnut isle at Publix

I’ve learned that brothers manipulate each other like they are in sales. If one of them wants something all they have to do is feign not being interested in it and the other one will back off. This rule holds true unless it’s something that has an attraction so undeniably strong that neither one can fake it. Enter the doughnuts. Sometimes I let the kids get a bag of powdered doughnuts. It was on one such occasion that I was reminded of some life lessons that parents might forget.

Megadeth taught me everything I need to know about children’s medicine

Small children are happy, uncontrollable running laboratories for things that adults can no longer get. Think Jurassic Park on a microbial level and put those tiny ill tempered Pteranadons in your child. One day our child had a rash around his mouth. My wife said, “oh, I bet he has hand, foot and mouth disease”. My immediate thought was hoof and mouth disease and then I remembered that Megadeth addressed this issue in their classic song Hook in Mouth.

Growing up Rudy the Rabbit, win a 55′ LG TV and the #BigGameChallenge

In summer after the sixth grade I was still looking for a sport to play. One day while playing neighborhood football I caught a kick off and ran for a touchdown. This was now my game. I lifted hard that summer, drank raw eggs and exercised lots but didn’t play football oddly enough. Late that summer I played football again. I caught the ball, ran and got hit-hit hard. It may not have been a hard hit, but it was enough for me to realize that I didn’t like getting hit and needed to find another sport. Thankfully at that time a young upstart comedian was in a movie called Meatballs that would show me the sport that would define my teen years.
