I bought alcohol at duty free in Athens, had to go back through security at JFK for my flight to LAX. Since I had the bottle in the sealed duty free bag I was allowed to keep it.

“Sternal rub is one of the primary methods used by EMS for applying a painful stimulus. This technique is performed by rubbing the knuckles of a closed fist firmly and vigorously on the patient’s sternum. Because the stimulus is applied to the core of the body, it is referred to as a central painful stimulus. The…

I have been bartending for about 16 years now first in NYC and now in LA. I can count on 1 hand the amount of times anyone has ordered a martini and expected it to be made with gin.

I’m sure that is it but it still feels weird to have people miss me in an entire CAR. 

Ha! I was just telling my mom that its weird people seem to see me BETTER on my scooter than my RED Miata. Despite the bike obviously being way smaller and black. 

Do it! I have a SYM HD 200, its great on the streets in LA and big enough that I haven’t destroyed it hitting bumps and holes like I did with my smaller wheeled 1st Yamaha. Scooters are a fantastic and under utilized way to get into riding. It will get you comfortable being on a bike while allowing you to focus on the…

I found the MSF to be more useful than what I would have had to be able to do on a bike to pass the CA road test. The slow circle was the reason I didn’t take the DMV test and I still am not sure why that is more important than actually being able to ride in traffic or most anything else. It is also exceptionally hard…

I was looking for somewhere to park some money and at this point there seems to be no advantage to a CD or money market account with the rates you can get on savings accounts right now.

I have the equivalent of my gen-X cohorts savings in student loan debt, does that count? No?

I use actual pineapple and the juice from the can (if I don’t have fresh). You can also make it extra tasty by adding a banana. Same recipe as the guy selling them from a cart in San Juan, which were the best I’ve ever had.

Pet insurance is also worth it if you don’t want to be put in a position of trying to figure out how to pay for your pets emergency care. My first dog had an obstruction, on presidents day weekend, evening and I think it was Sunday. He was SICK, they basically came in with an estimate of 5-8 THOUSAND to save him and…

YES! Gives you the bundles by Today, Yesterday, etc. I missed that for sure.

For some reason that is like the unicorn of flavors and they NEVER EVER have it. I ask, believe me. Its always “Sorry, I’ll check. Yeah, we only have cherry.” I’m asking about the baking soda next time. 

I was just asking my boyfriend how no one is stealing them in LA?

Why not just buy one reusable bag for $2?

Ha! I thought I was the only one who hates the polish! I have zero issues with the dentist, I usually nearly fall asleep in the chair. But that fucking CHERRY polish. I hate it with a burning passion. Like why isn’t it mint, like toothpaste? Cherry? Vomit. 

Because you are still using them even if you reuse them. Using them 2x doesn’t make them better for the environment. Not to mention, just because YOU reuse them doesn’t mean most other people do.

OR if you have a bank, ask them if they have a credit card. I got my 1st card from my bank when I was 21. It had a $300 limit but it helped me to build credit when no credit card company sending me junk offers in the mail would give me one. 

Because THIS is the shit we all want.
