After reading and hearing a lot about fidget spinners recently, I decided to take the responsible action of testing one out.
And then I tested it some more.
And then I continued my thorough examination.
And when I was asked to return it, I continued to spin it, balance it and watch it spin around and around and around because fidget spinners are the bee’s knees of today’s toys.
I will go out on a limb here and admit that I love fidget spinners. I realize that adults enjoy making fun of them, but these toys are extremely amusing and satisfying. The only problem I have with them is when I am asked to give one back. Continue reading “Fidget spinners: Harmless fun or the end of society as we know it?”

One word that is a word, though, is “delicious” and it is the perfect word to describe all of these Top 5 Underrated Foods. Continue reading “Top 5 Underrated Foods”
With another school year now underway, it’s a great time to reflect once again on just how important education is.
I know school can be tough whether you are in college, high school or younger, but the skills you learn at any educational level are going to help you in countless ways.
For example, over the summer my brother Marty came across one of my educational diplomas and he and I were both was amazed at just how much I learned at that prestigious academic institution. Continue reading “What you learn in school, even preschool, will take you far in life”

What’s better than an ordinary compound word?
Well, I can easily think of hundreds of items, but for this column the answer is compound words that are made up of three words.
Heretofore you may not have thought much about these words, nevertheless I will explain my love for them inasmuch as possible so that whosoever reads this will also love these words forevermore.
Our society places great value on food, but some foods are terribly overrated due to a variety of reasons. And while taste is a subjective subject, it does subject itself to some judging now and again.
In order to try to bring clarity to our menus, our judges have compiled the Top Five Overrated Foods: Continue reading “Top 5 Overrated Foods”
My mail is usually pretty boring, but recently we received a pretty interesting delivery.
This letter was from the National Opinion Network – Infant Division, which led to several questions:
Do they have infants running a whole division at the National Opinion Network? How does that work? Is there a huge office full of babies working on these letters? What does their break room look like? Continue reading “Traditional mail: Excitement in every package or are letters for babies?”
Now that it’s fair and festival season in Ohio and much of the known universe, many people will be enjoying fair foods.

On Aug. 21, the United States will see a solar eclipse and it apparently is a very big deal.
But is it really?
On this day, the moon will pass in front of the sun and completely obscure it. The entire country is supposed to get dark, and in a 70-miles-wide path across the continental U.S. from Oregon to South Carolina, it will be a total eclipse. This means that it will go from daylight to twilight quickly, the birds will start singing like it is night, the temperature will drop and that Bonnie Tyler song will be played over and over on the radio.
