I just returned from a long weekend getaway down in Escondido. And because I understand the jaw-dropping jealously our prestigious accommodations will inspire, I’ll tell you we stayed at the Lawrence Welk resort. (That was really intended to be more tongue-in-cheek, just to be clear, though the resort is lovely.) A friend of mine had… Continue reading give a getaway
I’ve been working at a temp job this week with a small group of people.

A scientific study has determined that chasing younger women is good for men. Next, expect forthcoming studies to show that men chasing younger women can completely reverse the economic downturn, as well as stop global warming.
