    Global warming jokes just get too easy at a point. Even the president has jumped on my old bit about said phenomenon forsaking us from time to time. Let’s give a quick kudos, though, to my local school district, who … Continue reading →

    Borrowed this one from math class… In the first 17 full years in the NFL, Tom Brady has won five Super Bowls. That’s nearly 30 percent of his seasons ending with a championship. For a little comparison, in his 15-year … Continue reading →
