These are questions that you don’t have to be a rocket surgeon or even a responsible parent to know the obvious answer is “No”. Your kids will do enough drinking on their own later in life. You don’t need to provoke or promote it.

Is it ok to serve children alcohol, even if it’s just wine?
Is it ok to serve a toddler wine in a “sippy” cup?
Is it funny to notice the served child feeling the effects of the alcohol, even if it only makes them sleepy?

I live out in a farm land area of North Carolina. I like it out here because it’s quiet and I kind of like being around the farm lands. It’s peaceful. One thing that I have always liked since I moved out here is this huge pine tree that sits in the middle of a big field they use to grow cotton, soy beans and sweet potatoes. What I liked about the tree is that it stood alone. Alone in this field as if it was watching over the land. It was a thing of beauty and was probably …read more

This was the same guy that had a booth at a flea market and bought a bicycle from a lady right beside him for 10 bucks, just to turn around and sell it to someone else for 20 bucks. The …read more

Vacation is over. I got a sunburn, stung or pricked in the wrist by something in the ocean and my neck is a bit sore from head-banging at Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival.

Some of you may have seen this on the news. A pregnant man. No, it’s not an experiment like the movie Junior with Arnold Schwarzenegger. It’s more of a switch-a-roo. This is NOT a miracle. Do not be mislead by news headlines and all the hype. This person was born as a woman, but it’s no secret or scam. He is very open about it and the media is all over it.

I want to give my wife, Dexie, a fellow b5 blogger a big Happy Birthday. I’m also going to shamelessly plug her other b5 blogs.

She Knows Best – A men’s style and fashion blog
Style It Less – Fashion for the Frugal
Style tots – Style and Fashion for the Kids
Soaps on ABC – Title says it all
These are just the b5 blogs, She has others as well that I’m not totally familiar with. How she finds time to manage them all and put up with me, I’ll never know.
I love you, Dex. Happy Birthday!
