Here we have another guest post from Dennis Yu Sad, but I found out that I flew 306,000 miles last year and spent over 200 nights in hotels. And after a few years of living in hotels across this planet, you, lovely reader, get to benefit from my mistakes. Airbnb.com is disrupting the hotel industry [...]
Remember school assemblies when you were a kid? If not, I forgive you. At least you probably remember the salient point, that getting out of class was pretty great in and of itself no matter what the assembly tried to teach us. There we would sit in the auditorium listening to a boring guy (who [...]
I‘ve had the pleasure recently to become acquainted with Wayne Elsey, the founder and CEO of Soles4Souls. Soles4Souls is a non-profit organization that has, to date, donated upwards of 15 million pairs of shoes to kids in need around the world. Wayne Elsey was motivated towards charity in 2006 by the Indonesian tsunamis. The one [...]

It seems that any half-wit can get a teaching certificate these days. Unfortunately, I see a lot of half-wits also realize this. Public schools are a mixing pot of teachers who care but stink at teaching, teachers who don’t care and stink at teaching, and awesome teachers who are great because they care and they [...]
A lot of you have probably seen the Mythbusters episode where Jamie and Adam tested whether or not yawning is contagious. It turns out that yawning is indeed contagious – or, rather, catching (Adam and Jamie’s numbers don’t exactly match the research, but they’re pretty close). When someone else yawns what you’re doing by [...]
By Dennis Yu and Keith Wilcox I don’t always post articles about parenting or children. I also have a passion for warning people about scams. My all time favorite scam warning is about Multi Level Marketing. I posted an article a year ago about Send Out Cards (an MLM company) that has gotten over [...]

Best is a subjective term. Obviously there are thousands of great albums that I’ve never heard which other people would think are the best. But, in the last 30 days I’ve driven a little over 6,000 miles with my wife and two boys, and I’ve listened to quite a few albums. With kids in [...]
