Like most kids, when I used to watch Superman and Wonder Woman in cartoons, I asked my mom if superheroes existed in real life.

The Cost Of Being The First Kid On The Block [Infographic]

I have pointed it out many times before, but I suppose another time won't hurt us a bit.

Human Photography: Harley Davidson Fans In Raw Form

I grew up in a very conservative Christian family in a small town. I never even left the country until I was an adult. In my hometown, everyone knows everyone.

A Different World: Can You Spot What’s Wrong?

Seeing the world from a constant perspective, such as from one of those old globes that you can buy and put on your table, teaches us that the world has a pattern all its own.

Geek-Cred: Fake iPhone Doubles As Personal Fan

We're never happy, are we? In the winter we write about how cold it is, and we blog about different ways to stay warm. In the summer we write about how hot it is, and we blog about different ways to stay cool. I guess that's just human nature, right? It's either that or we are a bunch of spoiled bra ...

As we all know, a home without plants and flowers quickly becomes quite an unpleasant place to be. There is just something about organic stuff that's growing.

My dear friend @gupshupblog always jokes that I'm his Twitter Mama.
