2012-01-02 14:06:00 There is nothing as disappointing as waking up on New Year?s Day expecting to spend the day watching college football and then not being able to watch the games. I thought about the bowl games all day on Saturday. I planned my appetizer schedule and cleaned the dust off the big screen. I adjusted ...

Mondays?.suck!
2011-08-08 14:36:00 So I’m up bright and early, as usual, and I’m experiencing some trouble with getting myself moving.

"Suck it Up, Pansy Face!" A Letter From Dick Butkus on the Blizza
2011-02-01 07:06:00 f you're gonna take this time to pop in DVDs or play board games, then I guess times have changed. Whenever I got a break, which was about one hour a day between work/football/school, I would do pushups. Then I'd find a punching bag with Curly Lambeau or Vince Lombardi's face on it and pummel it until my hands were black and blue. But, that's because I'm a man...something you are obviously not.
Another reason why hickeys suck: They could kill you
2011-01-26 17:46:00 Hickeys suck. Period. From the forced turtlenecks to the "oh, clumsy me-I burnt myself with the curling iron" hickeys are the Scarlet A's of make-outs. But did you know that hickeys could kill you?A 44-year old woman in New Zealand suffered temporary paralysis and a stroke after being "twilighted" by her lover. According to Fox News, the woman went to the hospital after experiencing loss of mobility in her left hand. Doctors concluded the woman had suffered a mild stroke but were puzzled about its cause until they found a small vertical bruise on her neck near a major artery, a hickey, she received a few days earlier.But how could something as seemingly innocent as a hickey cause such wide-scale destruction?...

I Suck at Making Things Go Viral
2010-12-22 13:48:00 I know that headline is the most obvious joke about a venereal disease ever in the history of time, but what I'm referring to here is the "Publish This Book" One Beer YouTube Contest.My errant hope was that a bunch of YouTube savvy aspiring writers would take to the series of tubes and post a bunch of weird videos semi-related to the book I wrote, thus creating a story that the daffiest of those flailing CNN web reporters could not resist.Alas, as I've long suspected, I'm really, really bad at making anything go viral on the Internet. I'm not even sure what the word "viral" really means. I suspect no one else does either, but at least I can admit...

PMDD Can Suck It
2010-11-09 00:42:00 I have PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder).I have read that PMDD is PMS times a zillion.That was a quote from a doctor, not someone who suffers from PMDD.I quite agree with that doctor.Actually, I think that doctor is an absolute genius.Today my PMDD is rearing its big, fat, ugly head.You may have heard of the funny meanings of PMS; Pass My Shotgun, Pester My Spouse, Potential Murder Suspect.But what about PMDD?Popping My Depression Drugs, Pardon My Detestable Demeanor, or Probable Murder; Downright Defendable seems most fitting.It's days like this that make me totally okay with the fact that some animals eat their young and certain insects kill their mates.

Top Ten Bears Who Might Suck in 2010
2010-09-03 05:53:00 It was actually harder for me to cut this list down to ten than it was to write the thing. You can thank the Chicago Bears and their consistently piss poor showings thus far in the preseason for that. It's hard to have anything but a negative outlook on what's in store for us fans this year. Everywhere you look there's another question mark, from the front office, to the coaching staff to the players. And that's who we'll be turning our attention to today. Here are the Top Ten Bears Who Might Suck in 2010....

2010-07-23 21:54:00 Every summer, the Durkin Robinson gang usually takes off to see something new. In the past, we’ve visited national parks and majestic scenes like Yellowstone, the Grand Canyon, and an unusually large ball of twine.

2010-07-09 04:15:00 So while we have to put up with "Can't Be Tamed" by Miley Cyrus, a few good tunes have found their way into the airwaves. Though they may be squished between Rihanna's sexual screeching and Lady Gaga's metaphorical mumbling, they are there and we will listen.
Mosquitoes Suck!

Why being in a wheelchair doesn't suck
2010-06-26 19:34:00 Let's face it: there are a lot of times when being in a wheelchair sucks.You can't go fly-fishing in Montana, you can't play hopscotch on the playground, and you can't steal batteries from the smoke detector to put in your remote control when the White Sox are on. But there are times when being in a wheelchair doesn't suck. One is that you don't have to remove your shoes when you go to somebody's house.
Why being in a wheelchair doesn't suck
2010-06-12 20:16:00 Let's face it: there are a lot of times when being in a wheelchair sucks. You can't take a "jump shot" to beat the buzzer, you'll never know the thrill of falling out of a tree, and you have to spend more money repairing walls and doors than the average dude. But sometimes, being in a wheelchair doesn't suck. Let's take a look at one reason: you have an instant chair wherever you go.
Why being in a wheelchair doesn't suck
2010-06-06 01:45:00 Let's face it: there are a lot of times when being in a wheelchair sucks. You can't express your appreciation for a Britney Spears concert with a standing ovation, you can only go so low during the Limbo, and you'll never fit your chair in a Lamborghini. But sometimes, being in a wheelchair doesn't suck. Let's take a look at one of the best reasons: parking spots.
is this the suck?
2010-06-05 18:25:00 Some may call this a vent, I don't think it is, but just in case I went ahead and already put a quarter into the negativity jar.Maybe it's because the girls were both sick this week, maybe it's because it's new but holy crap, this is the suck. We're a week into Pam's rotation schedule, the first of 7, and I have to say I think it sucks a little. I knew it would be difficult, but this will really be a challenge. I guess you can't know how tough it'll be until you're in it. I also think I got a little spoiled getting to "sleep in" until 5am before going for my daily runs. Getting back up at...
Why being in a wheelchair doesn't suck
2010-05-29 17:30:00 Let's face it: there are a lot of times when being in a wheelchair sucks. You can't fully appreciate the magnificence of the Macarena, a pointy object in your wheel could send you home for the day, and you get a sore neck from looking up at people all the time. But let's take a look at one of the most obvious, and overlooked, reasons why living in a wheelchair doesn't suck: it's much better than the alternative.

New Year's Eve Bar Deals Suck
2009-12-31 14:02:00 I clearly did not try with this imageWe need to make some kind of stand against New Year's Eve bar deals. You know what I'm talking about because you are no doubt attending one tonight: you pay $50 or $75 or $120 and get to stand around with a bunch of strangers and fight your way to the bar and snack trays to consume far less alcohol and food than you would have gotten if you'd hit up the local Wal-Greens and liquor store (otherwise known as a Markley family reunion). Plus, you have to pay for the cab that it takes an hour to get. Plus, it's cold and miserable outside because it's December 31st and it's Chicago....
“The yellow one’s the sun!” Why science projects suck.
2009-12-24 18:52:00 There aren’t many statements that bring on a headache like, “Mom, we have to pick a science project.” I know history and literature. Graphing data and proving a hypothesis makes me tired and confused. When my kids ask for help that doesn’t include a fun dissertation on why Woodrow Wilson was an ass, they almost always ...
All I want for Christmas is a drugstore mascara that will not suck!
2009-12-17 05:28:00 When I started this blog I started buying drug store mascara to write something nice about one of them (I have purchased 3 thus far) and, I have nothing nice to say. What are you thoughts on this? I do not like the brushes that they come with and I do not like that they flake in my eye. The price is not even that good unless it's buy one get one free! Yes, it does beat $25.00 for a tube but at least when you pay more you are not getting an eye infection from it collecting in my eye! What are you thoughts and suggestions? Please let me know before I waste another cent on this trash!...
Reason #5,698,674 Why I Suck As a Housewife
2009-12-03 21:06:00 My seven year old who should be wishing for sugar plum fairies and flashy, bright toys from Santa?He's become sadly practical in our weaknesses. On his Christmas letter to Santa was "socks."I kid you not.Now does the kid actually need socks? Uh, nope.Just that CG and I suck about matching socks when do laundry. We have two baskets full of socks that we rarely match so that there's always a dearth of socks in this family and a mad scramble every school day morning to find some.Seriously, I've bought 30 pairs of socks for the kid in the last six months. It just seems easier to buy more socks that actually match 'em.Pathetic. Really, I know.So pathetic that yes, my friends, it's that time. It's Pinup Mommy of the Year Award Time:I stink at laundry big time!!

Becoming a Pro Gamer: What to do when you suck
2009-11-17 18:24:00 When I first read this article from the folks at vVv Gaming, I had to laugh. Let's face it, we've all been there. We've all had days when nothing is going right for us and we just can't seem to get it together. We screw up. We do really poorly. I'll just come out and say it, there are days when we just suck. So what do you do on those days when your gaming skills just aren't up to par, you're just not as good as you thought you were and you're driving your fellow players to apoplexy? You do what Stephen "DarkChaos" Beach suggests, and 'embrace the suck'
It's official: The Bears officially suck
2009-11-13 06:14:00 I am still in Jay Cutler's corner. I like him as risk-taking gunslinger. He makes the game exciting. But man, did you see that last loss by the Bears. Singletary's boys made us a look like a Pop Warner team swimming in codeine. Six Robbie Gould points and no Red-Zone success. We got served and I may head toward my wife's favorite team: the Indianapolis Colts. You know that a 4 and 5 record is terrible. We have to win 4 more just to break even on the season. It's official: The bears are below mediocre - Lovie's coaching is horrendous and the offensive line could stand to spend more time in the weight room. They suck everyone, and you know...
Top Ten Sports-Related Halloween Costumes That Don't Suck
2009-10-26 21:27:00 You're better than this. Halloween is just five days away. You don't wanna be just another Balloon Boy, do you? Imagine the embarrassment if you and your sweetie run into another duo dressed as Kanye West and Taylor Swift! And we all heard that Conan O'Brien monologue: you won't be the only Count Barackula at the club. Why not combine your love of sports with your love of Halloween? There are countless characters in the sports world just waiting to be spoofed. But let the amateurs flood the costume shops for this year's hottest picks. Leave the Danica Patrick racing suits and the Kenny Powers' mullets to the trixies and d'bags. You, sports fan, can do better all by yourself....
Two Thirds Of State Students Suck At Math - Still
2009-10-15 19:05:00 Even if you don't give a whit about CPS or poor minority kids, these results should give you pause when you think about what we're being told by the city (which, using a different much easier test, gives a much higher number).
Embrace the Suck
2009-09-09 10:01:00 "Over the course of 10 months in eastern Afghanistan, an Army specialist nicknamed Mud Puppy maintained a blog irreverently chronicling life at the front, from the terror of roadside bombs to the tyrannies of master sergeants.Often funny and always profane, the blog, Embrace the Suck (military slang for making the best of a bad situation), flies under the Army?s radar. Not officially approved, it is hidden behind a password-protected wall because the reservist does not want his superiors censoring it."?What comes out of my blog is the experiences of a soldier right in the middle of all of this,? Mud Puppy (a nickname for military police), who recently returned home to Illinois, wrote in a recent e-mail message. ?I think that people need to hear from us, more than they need to hear from the big whigs. War has a cost, and that cost is paid by soldiers.?Read the story of Pentagon Wary Blog Watch by at NY Times

TV show writers suck when it comes to science!
2009-05-30 06:30:00 You would think a show as technically involved as CSI would at least try to cover their bases when it comes to making scientifically-based statements. I was watching CSI Season 2, Episode "Overload", when, at the beginning of the episode, Grissom exclaims, "Terminal velocity is nine point eight

Why BT (British Telecom) Suck
2009-05-06 13:35:00 I have a couple of business lines with BT in relation to our fast food business. Like most fast food companies we accept telephone orders which are then delivered by drivers to save people leaving home. Last month I spent SIXTEEN hours trying to get a phone reconnected due to BT’s terrible policy of disconnecting lines ...
Red Wings Suck
2009-04-08 02:39:00 Inappropriate title? Perhaps. But between rooting for the Spartans last night and reading the next book, this has been probably my most pro-Michigan week since the last time I visited. The only way it could be moreso is if I'd been playing the Laughing Hyenas all week (I haven't: it's been Mastodon, Aimee Mann, Dirty Three time here). So for balance, I need to remind the world: the Detroit Red Wings do, indeed, suck, regardless of what it may say in the standings.That out of the way:#31 -- "Thunder City" by Loren D. EstlemanThis is the most recent in the Detroit series that started with "Whiskey River"; in the afterword, Estleman indicates it's probably the last, while leaving that open to backtracking. It actually (I'm pretty sure) takes place chronologically earlier than the rest. It was the only one I hadn't read, that I know for sure.If I were reasonably confident of living to 160, I'd set aside a month sometime and read all of Estleman's Detroit books -- I have a feelin...

Tonights Sched: Mondays Kinda Suck..
2009-03-02 22:06:00 So, tonight there are maybe 2 good games out of the 5.Hornets at 76ersCP3 and bunch have been playing a little better recently. I don't feel they're contenders, but they can make for a good match up against the Sixers. Both teams can definitely score, also they have nice young bigs to boot.Most intriguing match up: Tyson Chandler vs. Samuel Dalembert. This certainly won't be the best offensive match up, but won't it be fun to watch these guys scrap all game? That's the way they play, should be fun to watch. Close second: Andre Miller vs. Chris Paul. Two scrappy guards, but not as down and dirty Chandler and Dalembert.So, the spread has the Sixers favored by 2.5. I'm going to go with the Hornets winning by three. Sorry, Sixers fans, your home crowd sucks at times.Also, if you want to catch Heat at Cavs, I wouldn't blame you. I'm having a Monday burnout, so no talk around the hardwood, or anything else today. Sorry, but I'm going to try to possibly hit up Twitter later!

Why Do People Suck? - Ongoing
2009-02-02 14:53:00 I went to a SuperBowl party yesterday for about five minutes. One word: Ewww. I didn’t mind getting a tour from the homeowner who waxed poetic about the benefits of custom-made furniture. Seriously, I didn’t realize someone could talk for so long without taking a breath or asking my name. I didn’t realize someone could be that boring and nasty and ramble nonstop about how the previous owners were the “do-it-yourself” types who “bought everything at Home Depot” and didn’t care that the house “looked like a shithole” but that “thank God we have better taste than that.” Sure lady, it’s in great taste to order all your furniture from sweat shops in Sri Lanka. Go girl. But really, that didn’t bother me. I asked tons of questions, nodded and encouraged the crazy talk. It didn’t bother me when I heard a partygoer, we’ll call her Elaine, whisper to my mother, “They may have a nice house, b...
