There’s an another alternative that can really help if you’re working out alone: don’t use the clamps. I have a home gym that includes a bench press and I workout alone. At least once a week I “max out” and its not uncommon for me to not complete a set and be left with weights on my chest. In these cases, I simply…

“If you eat too much protein, nothing terrible happens, but the extra protein is just calories.” Actually... that’s not entirely true. Consuming excess protein can also tax the kidneys. Granted, you need to be doing for a certain length of time, but there are consequences beyond just dealing with the extra calories.

Its not just the grills though. Its the branding. Dodge recently decided their tailgates should all be buildboards for the brand. Chevy has followed with the 2019's. Now we’re seeing the same in the front... big, large FORD’s and RAM’s and CHEVROLET’s. That said I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado and I personally think the…

“This is why you’re always hungry after you have a salad for lunch”...

Well that depends. If you’re a carboterian (or a carb monger) and you eat a salad full of (empty) carbs (even “good” ones) and you’re already the type to drink lots sugary drinks from places like Starbucks and other high carb, high sugar foods than…

This is the cheapest way I know to reduce pet allergens. I’ve been doing this for years now. Basically each night I move the fan/filter combo to a different room and let it run for an hour while I read or watch TV. Combined with a Roomba or a Neato, and my daughters allergies are all but non-existent (at least until…

I’ve flown them for years. I found the news articles to be a bit over the top, but you gotta figured the pilots want to live as much as the passengers. These days I only fly one route repeatedly and that route only uses the new planes, not the “suck you out the windows” planes.

Some people have really good AD&D coverage I suppose.

If you happen to fly the regional airline Allegiant and have their branded BofA credit card, you’ll get one free drink on each flight for showing the card to the stewardess. What they don’t tell you is this applies to anyone flying with you (your spouse or over 21 child). Also, they default to one free alcoholic…

That was exactly what I was thinking. The women I have been with can all come and still keep going. Sometimes they peak and need a short break, but they can still keep going. My experience is if guys come, its pretty much over... especially if they go limp, get tired, and lie down. Sure there are cock rings and such,…

Men (and I am one) let’s be honest. It take a lot less work for us to orgasm than it does for 99.99% of the women out there. If you’re orgasming before she does, you’re a self centered asshat. Touch her nipples. Touch her clit. Finger her vagina. Find what works for her. Find what gets her off. Then make it a goal to…

Anyone find this kind of silly given the context of murdering hundreds of people in a death game built around the same style of another game on the same engine which was built on the story of japanese school children mudering each other that was stolen by a random white lady for a popular book then movie series?

I see Apple Watch’s more than I see any other smart watches, but I can’t recall ever seeing one on a 65 year old. Most of the over 65'ers that I see still have Jitterbugs and Hurrycanes not iPhones and Apple Watch’es. Is this the new Life Alert? Do I now buy an Apple Watch for my parents in case they “fall and can’t…

I think the most important thing to consider here is that you’re basically getting an interest free loan. If the phone is $999.99 and you’re paying $41.65/mo for for 24 months, then there’s no interest. Try getting that deal anywhere else. Sure, if you want to upgrade after 12 months, you can and you keep paying…

I’ve tried multiple types... the regular ones, the anti dandruff ones, the “organic” natural ones, the no sulfates ones... the result is always the same. Granted, I’m male and keep my hair fairly short (less than 4"), but my issue was never really with my hair so much as my face dealing with oil from my scalp. I kind…

You may be sensitive to sulphates. I usually use sulphate-free shampoo but when I don’t I have to make sure I tilt my head back and not get any on my face or else I get a weird rash. 

My acne cleared up when I stopped using shampoo. Think about it... your body tries to maintain homeostasis. This includes your scalp (which is skin... which is the largest organ in your body) producing oil. So you use shampoo that strips it all away, then use conditioner to put back a foreign version of it that your…

I don’t use it a lot in cooking so I don’t know if it helps me or not, but it is amazing on my skin. I’ve always had issues with my skin, from eczema to lichen amyloidosis. After years of regular doctor visits & prescriptions, I tried just using unrefined coconut oil on my skin twice a day and within 6 months my skin…

Something else people tend to overlook... trail registers. I tend to go backpacking for 2 to 10 days at a time. That means my truck is often times left at a trailhead for a few days or more. I want to be safe and leave a note inside with my itinerary but I don’t want it visible by anyone looking into my windows (they…

Worth adding... sometimes crap happens and you find yourself off trail, injured, needing replacement gear (remember when Reese Witherspoon lost her boots in Wild?), needing a hotel, maybe needing urgent care or a hospital (poison ivy/oak, infected bug bites, etc). Heck maybe you ended up alone cause your d-bag…
