Head Factory is a busy place. Seeing, swallowing, smelling, hearing, thinking, breathing — yes, it’s a 24/7 triple-shift work-around-the-clock type of place. And the foreman of Head Facto...
Everybody loves turkey dinner. Nobody loves the massive spread of crusty dishes, gravy boats, and sticky-smeared cutlery afterwards. It looks like hours of work for the poor soul stuck with doing it ...
It’s how you got here. It’s how everybody got here. AWESOME! Photo from: here
The hotel shower faucet is a 7:00am Brain Teaser. You strip down and peel back the flimsy white curtain to size up the challenger and you find it staring back at you — a clump of shiny dials an...
Do you remember the first time? Were you leaning back in red plushy tundra at the theater, twisted like a mummy under a basement blanket, or by yourself with headphones on a long-haul flight? Where w...
It’s the battle of the bugs. When I was a kid I was deathly afraid of needles. Nothing was scarier than getting jabbed by some lady in blue smocks. And I mean nothing, too: not crackly furnace ...
Milkshakes must be made from just ice cream and milk and poured from a giant metal cup into a really heavy glass. The metal cup should have more milkshake left over and get all frosted up before you ...
Have you ever waited in a really long line? I’m not talking five minutes getting to the bathroom at half-time, ten minutes sock-slipping in airport security, or even fifteen minutes outside the...
What a show. Flashing lights, sweaty shirts, and screaming crowds get loud while guitars jam, voices scream, and everyone sings along. Now the song’s all gone and we’re suddenly left with...
“Look down,” Leslie said. “All the men are bald.” We were sipping paper cups of water during intermission at a play last night and she was looking over the railing into the in...
I have an addiction. Whenever I’ve been hanging out with a toddler for over twenty minutes I always have to ask them to guess my age. I can’t explain this terrible disease other than to s...
I was driving up Neon Light Alley yesterday. Whipping up suburban roads I was high-tailing my way to a greasy lunch with some pals from the office. Photocopier fumes, blinking red lights, and pressin...
When I first started shaving I had a brief honeymoon phase where I actually enjoyed it. Yes, The Wolf Man walked into the bathroom and a few minutes later out popped a fifteen year old babyface weari...
You know you love it. When those red bumpy mountains erupt out of the ground called Your Face, you suddenly notice them in the mirror and cast an evil eye. “Bastard, I’m gonna get you,...
My dad was born in 1944 in the village Tarn Taran in India. He lived in a small clapboard house on a sandy sidestreet and shared a tiny bedroom with his three brothers and one sister. He was only thr...
Thanks for heat, life, and pretty sunsets. AWESOME!
I grew up riding shotgun a lot. My dad was a teacher so summers were spent fiddling with the radio dial as we dropped my mom off to work, took my sister to swimming lessons, and waited in bank lineup...
Let’s turn off the TV, put away the board games, and toss the deck of cards in the trash. Yes, it’s time to play all the made up games you played as a kid. Let’s chat about some of the greatest: • Er...
Also great if it’s your boss, teacher, or mom. AWESOME! Photo from: here
Blowing out candles is pressure. Lights are off, song is over, and a standing circle of everyone you know crowds around as you sit facing a giant cake covered in a flaming forest of candles. Someone ...

Welcome to Taco Night. Personally I’m going to go ahead and say potluck tacos are my favorite meal these days. I convinced my family to have Christmas Tacos a few years back — complete wi...
Smooch, smooch, smooch. Yes, nothing says love like locking lips. And whether it’s between snoozes on the futon, in the back row at the movies, or swinging from the top of the Ferris wheel, it&...
Admit you like it. We all know slippery soap suds, rogue belly button lint, and assorted leg hair goes down smooth. But our long hippie head hair sure gets the bathtub traffic jamming and our tubs sl...
