I wasn't born in Texas, but I got here as quick as I could. I'm originally from Battle Creek, Michigan (home of Tony the Tiger). I've got two kids who take up most of my time out of the office, but when I get "me time", I'm either taking in some live music or a sporting event. Since relocating, I also fell in love with the Texas music scene. I've been lucky enough to be nominated for DJ of the Year 4 straight years by the Academy of Texas Music, and was the 2009 recipient of the Academy's Palmwood Award. I'm a huge sports fan, and my loyalties are with the Michigan Wolverines, Chicago White Sox and (sorry) the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Extremely Bored Guy Destroys a Washing Machine for Our Entertainment
Every once in a while, I think it can be therapeutic to witness the destruction of a household appliance. I can't afford to a new washing machine, so I'm glad this guy took the liberty of destroying his and allowing me to watch. Besides, I don't think anyone should try this at home.

The Spare Tire Donut, Butt Cover, Lipstick Stencil + More of the Dumbest Inventions Ever
