When we went to Las Vegas recently, I was really impressed with the fake grass they were using. I’m not usually into fake plants, I mean for the most part I think they’re pretty lame, especially those cell phone towers in Los Angeles that are disguised as Palm Trees and Pine Trees in areas where [...]

Oh man, I was house-sitting for a friend and I accidentally dropped her prized Cuisenart Blender from the kitchen counter. In my defense, it was an accident.
