Always check your mirrors…

This isn’t a safety warning as much, more of a common sense warning. If you’re going to do something stupid, you might want to take a look around before doing it. That said - watch these morons burn rubber in “celebration” of a friend’s wedding. The video is a little slow at first, but is […]

Chinese restaurants a nutritionist’s nightmare

 This is downright depressing. I love Chinese food, but thankfully don’t eat it very often - maybe 2-3 times a month.
