I don’t quite know how Episode 74 turned in to the girliest episode of The Delivery ever, but it did. I’m not complaining, mind you. A man could do much worse than spend an hour with such lovely and smart women as Teri and Kimberly and we hit on some fun and interesting things. I’m [...]

I thought it was bad when the overnight low Saturday was 18 degrees, but that was balmy compared to the 9 degree low of Sunday night.

What? It’s every bit as accurate a headline as this bit of drivel from the National Enquirer. I didn’t link to the original piece because I don’t think rumor mongers who pose as journalists deserve traffic.
