How Many Jalapenos Can You Eat At Once?
Earlier this week I wrote an article about Joey Chestnut, the man who won a contest by eating 68 hot dogs and hot dog buns in 10 minutes. Soon after that article posted, Brent Burdick (@akamediainc) sent me the information about an even more insane eating contest. This is nuts, you’ve got to see t ...

Using Jealousy To Transform Your Life
“To cure jealousy is to see it for what it is, a dissatisfaction with self” ~ Joan Didion
Everyone has been jealous at one time or another. As well-adjusted, well-mannered and well intentioned we may be, we have all felt the pangs of envy. Someone got the job, car, hot guy, hot girl or fabulous o ...
Make a Paper Jet Engine!
Ok time for some science! Most of my youth was spent (or miss-spent depending on your perspective) burning or blowing stuff up. It must be a boy thing, almost like a right of passage, who knows.
Anyway, a good friend of mine who is now lecturing as a Dr of Chemical Engineering in a well known Eng ...
Remarkable Talking Dogs!
I adopted a dog from the animal shelter a year ago and up until today, I was convinced she could talk to me. When I look at her and say, “Do you want a bone?” She seems to answer, “Yes.” She doesn't just bark, but she sounds like she is actually pronouncing the word.
Is there any way possibl ...
