Why can't I let feeding maggots lie? I wasn't going to share this. Maggots in the Lunch Box So. Maggots. On a day not long gone (say a day six moons past)... I entered my laundry room. To clean it. As one does. Or doesn't does nearly often enough. I went to grab my...

I believe men really get a raw deal in these days of such progressiveness. Happy Father's Day, Dads! I read/see/observe slam after slam after slam on how poorly men behave, dress, don't pick things up, can't find things in the fridge, scratch their bellies, fart,...
