There are several things we’re often told when working with machinery. Wear goggles, don’t wear loose clothing and always turn it off immediately if something gets stuck are a few examples.

Some of you probably remember the Winnebago Man promotional video outtakes from many years ago. If you do, you’ll be happy to hear that there’s another 3 minutes or so of footage that you may not have seen. It hit YouTube back in 2009, but I was completely unaware of it until somebody slapped it …

Carin and I have covered much of this stuff through the years, but another well written reminder for folks to stumble upon can’t hurt.

A while ago I kind of went off about the world’s ridiculous bacon obsession and how out of hand it’s gotten. I stand by what I said, but had I only known what was to come I’d have saved saying it for sometime like…now. Yes, now seems like a good time. That is indeed a …

Darren Baldwin had a job. I say had, because for some reason he lost it. And when I say he lost it, I mean the job *and* his mind. After being given his walking papers, Baldwin promptly responded by punching his now former manager in the face. He then grabbed a couple of knives and …
