Little Johnny attended a horse auction with his father. He watched as his father moved from horse to horse, running his hands up and down the horse’s legs and rump, and chest. After a few minutes, Johnny asked, “Dad, why are you doing that?” His father replied, “Because when I’m buying horses, I have to make sure that they are healthy and in good shape before I buy. Johnny, looking worried, said, “Dad, I think the UPS guy wants to buy Mom.”
Beer and chips. The classic college foods, but too bad you always need a bottle opener or one of those chip sealing devises to truly enjoy. Not any more. The following two video tutorials are for either the poor college student that cannot afford to buy his or her own small kitchen appliances or for anyone who just wants to impress his or her friends with cool cavemen-style thinks.

Tea is a great alternative to soda. Just it’s lack of large amounts of sugar makes it a great choice, but recent research has found some great health benefits in many different types of tea.
Green tea is high in antioxidants which is great for the body. Who knew one of the best anti-cancer drugs can be bought at the grocery store? Antioxidants don’t just stop at helping to prevent cancer however. Green tea’s magical properties have been shown to help dandruff, anxiety, psoriasis, and more. Let me go get a cup now.
Black tea does not have as much Chinese magic as green, but it has been shown to help get rid of bad breath bacteria and the animo acids in black tea has been shown to strengthen your immune system.
Oolong tea can prevent tooth decay, fight dermatitis, help you lose weight, and, like black tea, it also strengthens your immunities.
White tea has been shown to have similar properties and health benefits to green tea. In the end however green, black, white, and oolong leaves all come from the same plant.

During this past weekend, I was taking my cousin from the Bahamas out on the town to see beautiful Miami, but we ran into some sneaky two-for-one “deals”. Saturday, we went to Chilli’s. Not the best place for a vegan like me, but the house salad was huge. We each ordered the mango mojitos recommended by the waiter (mojitos are my favorite, besides beer of course), who I’ll give props to, was super-nice. The waiter brings four mojitos…? It was the two-for-one special.
“Could you just have given us two drinks and charged us for one?”
At first taste the mojitos taste delicious, but where is the kickback that I usually get after drinking any type of alcoholic beverage? We ask the waiter if there is even alcohol in the drinks. Click to continue reading…
Anti-heros, van-controlling iPhones, musical, and Neil Patrick Harris (yes same guy from How I Met Your Mother and Doggie Howser) equals plain awesomeness. Thanks to Nick for convincing me to see this Internet-only film.
The film was initially distributed as three different episodes, but have now been combined into one 45-minute film at almost all locations. It follows Dr. Horrible trying to win the girl, battle his arch nemesis Captain Hammer, and enter into the Evil League of Evil. At the end he is only able to accomplish two of these goals so watch this great movie/show to find out. You can currently buy Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog on iTunes now or DVD. Or, if you are a poor college student, then watch it for free on Hulu.com or the official site (video is hosted by Hulu either way). International viewers should be able to view this video as well. There is also a free HD version. Also, all 15 songs are available on iTunes.
Here is the embeded video from Hulu:
