Sometimes, you just have to laugh.
I proudly wore the title of Class Clown all through school. I knew I was good when I had the teachers laughing as hard as my classmates. At work, the tradition continues. I am employed as a geek at a manufacturing facility with around 1500 employees. And the pl... continue reading...

Unfortunately, in recent years, it has taken on a sinister connotation.
I'm talking about the junior-senior prom. It's the social event of the spring for high schoolers. But too often, proms are marred ... continue reading...

Comedy records. They are like skyrockets. They flash brightly, then disappear and crash to earth.
Some of the hottest records ever made were comedy albums by Lennie Bruce, Bill Cosby, George Carlin, Richard Pryor, Eddie Murphy, and many more. But guess what? Many are now out of print, or have... continue reading...

There are a number of product names which have become an integral part of our society.
One of these is Tupperware. The plastic container makes Mr. Mcguire (from The Graduate. Remember “I want to say one word to you. Just one word. Are you listening? Plastics.”) look like a true prophet.
