But then the body may roll over on it...

A "brisk" 7 minutes per mile? I run regularly, that is more than a brisk run, that is a damn sprint. Your average person is running closer to 10 minute miles, not 7. If you are averaging 7 minute miles, you are an incredibly runner.

Board Chairman Dr. Greg Hoversten said: "That really bothers me. Iowa women are the first ones to get this in this fashion. There's something wrong there. It doesn't seem right."

I use the Facebook check in feature as free advertisement for cool places I go. I would never check in at a friend's house or at Chipotle, but if I am at a cool local restaurant I'll check in. I figure if my friends see I'm there they may be more familiar with it. Then if sometime in the future someone says "let's…

I am in the same situation. What I do instead of starting the shower is just use hot water to brush my teeth and leave it running while I do. This gets the hot water to the bathroom and then the shower only takes a couple second to warm up. Plus, if it heats up faster, I can turn off the water in the sink and save…

While I love the idea of doing away with tips, adding an automatic 18% "tip" to the check is not the way to do it. This still means that the waitstaff is not making a proper amount of money. On a slow day, they still may not make minimum wage. Plus, what they are paid is still tied to what I order. Why should the…

I found a little. cheap bedside alarm about 10 years ago that is wonderful. Beyond the normal functions like 2 separate alarms, the beeping alarm actually starts off quiet and starts getting louder. So instead of being jarred awake by a blaring alarm, if wakes you up up a minute or 2 and at a sound level that…

I didn't realize an adult size onesie was the new twerking uniform.

You should not snoop, but you should watch. The difference being that snooping implies that you are hiding what you are doing from your kids. Of course you shouldn't let your kids have free reign to do whatever they want, but if you are going to be tracking what your kids are doing, you should be up front with them…

This place is about 5 minutes from where I work. I am tempted to go by and see if I can find a blue Lexus parked on the street. If I do, I'm going to take a dump not only on the Lexus, but on the front steps of the house it is across from. Everyone involved in this whole thing is an asshole.

I have a very simple rule on what I will do for a woman as far as "chivalry". If I wouldn't do it for a guy, I won't do it for a woman. I'll hold the door for a woman, just like I would a man. I won't pull out her chair or open her car door, because I wouldn't do the same thing for a man. It's a simple way to…

My main concern is who is profiting from my usage of the card. I have a number of rewards cards (better rewards in different areas) and I use them whenever I am at large retailers. This way, I get something back out of the transaction (not much, but something). I really don't care if Visa or Target get an extra…

Where I work we have decent perks. We have a casual dress code (jeans are allowed). We get free coffee/soda. We have free salad bar lunches with some other stuff thrown in (although the quality is pretty damn bad). Unfortunately, these little perks are there because we don't get a lot of respect from the company. Too…

I sometimes check in places on Facebook, but I use it more as an advertising method for the places I like. I would never check in a Chipotle or the grocery store or something like that, but I will at the little, family owned restaurant down the street. I figure if people see mu check-ins, if someone says they want to…

While this is certainly possible, I have to question how much it really happens. Most robberies are not targeted enough for this to be a factor. To make this work, you have to first stake out a house and find out how lives there. Then you have to find them online and hope they actually have an open profile for…

My work music is exclusively The Current.

This is only tangentially related, but are there any apps or launchers (other than WidgetLocker) that will let you quickly mute your phone from the lockscreen? I am stuck using WidgetLocker now, which isn't bad but WAY overkill for something that should be so simple. I just want to swipe to mute the ringer and swipe…

My issue with tipping (besides the fact that everyone should be paid at least minimum wage) is that it doesn't make sense to base it on a percentage of the bill. So if I go someplace and order a steak that costs $25 instead of sandwich that costs $6, the waitress should get a bigger tip? Tipping should be based on…

So says this guy...
