The Milk Gallon Challenge


It is impossible to drink one gallon of milk in one hour without puking. In 2005, I set out to prove this fact. If there ever was man who could have done it, it was Andy. He started strong but failed 40 minutes into the challenge.

Some claim to have completed the Milk Gallon Challenge! But their story tends to fall apart when facts are introduced. On a page called “The Milk Bet” a man finishes the gallon but they used skim milk. Skim milk does not count in the challenge because 99% of the fat is removed. The fat in the milk is what makes the challenge so difficult as fat slows the emptying of the stomach into the small intestines.

Apply at the Border

The most you can make as a store manager at Taco Bell seems to be 50K in the state of Arizona. I expected it to be higher for some reason. I picked a much better trade, although I really do love tacos.

SOPA is Soup


Tell Congress to tell the children to tell their parents: “sopa” is the Spanish term for soup. Ah, you mean the “Stop Online Piracy Act?” Well that bill is dead for now. PIPA? Pippa Middleton is a  British chick who’s sister is married to some royal dude. Wait! You mean Protect IP Act. OH DEAR!

Corporate stock Images


You’d think that with the social media revolution, corporations would wise up to how customers want interactions online. This is a typical stock image found on many corporate websites. You find these often on B2B sites. They lack creativity and are meaningless. Online marketers: is this the best we can do?

Nest Like a Bird


Like any other geek, I was envious while drooling at the cool gadgets coming out of CES this week. Surprisingly it wasn’t a TV or flexible tablet that has me excited, it is Nest. Maybe it is my cheap side but this smart thermostat makes my nipples hard. Nest learns the best way to save energy without sacrificing comfort. This is filed under THINGS I WANT.

Papa Tiger


I love the term Mama Grizzly and that’s why I’ve created Papa Tiger! Papa Tiger is a liberal who wants to fight Mama grizzlies. Yes, those are my eyes on the tiger. It is very hard to tell because I did such a  good job with Photoshop.

Constant Content


I write and sell articles at Constant Content in my spare time. This is not to be confused with the Constant Contact email marketing program. I would jump off a bridge before wearing those shoes and my dog is cute as a button. But I like money and making money from writing.

Put Wifi in the TVs


Sharp and clever messaging with good humor – I love these ads. Humor often fails in television ads because people remember the joke, not the product. The joke is placed in the middle, and then the ad ends with a strong product finish. Well done.

Crying Over Spilled Tea


Today I spilled my cup of tea all over my desk. In 578 days of working for this company, this is the first time I’ve spilled anything. I drink a cup of coffee in the morning, a cup of tea in the afternoon and occasionally a soda – all with no spills.

Prediction: Cardinals Super Bowl


I predict that the Arizona Cardinals will make it to the Super Bowl next season, that would be the 2012 – 2013 season. I will not suggest who they will play or if they will win. Go Cardinals!

Prediction: The End of The World


The world will not end in 2012. Remember earlier in 2011 when the world was supposed to end (image above)? Remember Y2k? I am entertained by the end of world fun/high-jinks. If I am wrong, there won’t be anyone alive to call me out.

Prediction: Obama Wins in 2012


I predict a victory for President Obama in 2012 for many reasons. Weak Republican candidates, anti-terrorism successes, and an improving economy make Obama a lock in my opinion.

Prediction: Phoenix Coyotes


Time is out for the Phoenix Coyotes NHL hockey team as I predict April 3rd, 2011 will be the last game played in Arizona. The team will be moved, most likely to Canada. This prediction makes me sad. I love going to Coyotes games at Glendale Arena. For anyone who has been recently, the arena is about half full (or you could say half empty). I will make the most of the time they have left here. No official statement has been made, this is just a 2012 prediction.

I’ll Have The Lobster


My awesome friend Eli Murray won a lobster from a live lobster claw game in Tempe, AZ. The Horse and Hound pub is next door to The Clubhouse, a local rock venue. This video was the highlight of my night.

Prediction: Celebrity Funerals


Don’t buy stock in pudding pops as I foresee the death of Bill Cosby (74). Joan Rivers (78) will take a walk down the red carpet of death while B.B. King (86) will no longer sing the blues.  Zsa Zsa Gabor (94) is a clinger but 2012 is the year she will finally meet Jesus. My wild card pick is Vin Diesel (44).
