I Smell a Winner

I’ve mentioned in numerous previous articles that my wife and son suffer from severe food allergies, particularly to peanuts. Once, my wife was assured that the veggie burger she ordered at a restaurant contained no peanuts or tree nuts. After taking one bite, however, she immediately knew it did. She paced outside the local hospital […]

The Sins of the Father

In the Book of Genesis, God told Adam and Eve, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it, and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” Well, multiple people in the Netherlands are now […]

Winging It

Over the last month or so, I’ve written about how the TSA has defined peanut butter as a liquid and various levels of government have classified hamburgers and hot dogs as sandwiches, but not burritos. This week we ponder the age-old question: what constitutes a chicken wing? Aimen Halim, from Chicago, recently filed a class […]

Serve it Up

This is a great time of year. Spring is on the way and it’s the NBA playoffs. While I’m concerned about Giannis’ back, I love the Bucks’ chances this year. I also enjoy watching TNT’s studio analysts – Ernie Johnson, Charles Barkley, Kenny Smith and, of course, Shaquille O’Neal. And if you can’t get enough […]

My Hero

I recently wrote about the Transportation Security Administration defining peanut butter as a liquid. As such, passengers are only allowed to bring 3.4 ounces of the delicious spread onto flights. But, this isn’t the first time a branch of the government controversially defined food. The U.S. Department of Agriculture defines a sandwich as “a meat […]

Menstrual Leave

I remember as a kid, that on a few occasions, there were times when my sister and mother seemed to be on edge. During these instances, my dad would invite me outside to shoot hoops. Once out of earshot, he explained that we always need to love and support the women in our lives, but […]

Solid Argument

When I was a kid, I loved peanut butter. I had friends over for a peanut butter party – we had peanut butter sandwiches and then peanut butter cookies and peanut butter ice cream for dessert. Because I had a choosy mom, she chose creamy Jif, which she put on my sandwich every day from […]

Tire-d of Ratings

When I was a kid, I loved going to Madison for Badger games or for the State basketball tournament. I remember getting excited to see the giant Michelin Man outside a tire store. I can only assume his husky frame is attributable to trying all of the restaurants contained in his guide. In 1900, brothers […]

Tough Conversations

Benjamin Franklin has famously said, “In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” These two depressing topics always seem to go together. April 16, the day after the deadline for filing taxes, is National Healthcare Decisions Day. Because death and taxes go hand-in-hand, NHDD was established on April 16 […]

Wagering on Pro Wrestling? You Bet!

When I was a kid, I was a huge fan of professional wrestling. While I conceded that matches were choreographed or even scripted, I hated it when people referred to wrestling as “fake” because you can’t pretend to be thrown off the top of a 15-foot tall cage onto a table. In the 1980s, Hulk […]
