Have you ever sexted?
You know, sent a sexy text message to someone?
Yes, “sexting” is all the rage these days, apparently. Everyone from schoolkids to businessmen and government employees are sending naughty pictures of themselves with abandon, to everyone and anyone they know.
Web Watch has talked about how much money porn websites make, including those sites that are the beneficiary of randomly sent sexy text photos.
Bed Bugs are making the news all over the place this year, especially with the warm weather that has been seen all across the country this past winter.
So we shouldn’t be surprised that ORKIN, one of the largest pest control companies in the country, is considered an expert on how to control bed bugs.
And now that it’s Spring Break, unsuspecting college kids and high school seniors are going to be traveling all over the country, and may end up bringing home a special friend or two (or three thousand) with them if they’re not careful.
And that’s one reason why Orkin decided to release their list of the TOP 50 BED BUG CITIES in AMERICA for 2011.
A few years ago, Web Watch was visiting Las Vegas with some friends. As is the case when traveling with a large group of people – especially in Vegas – we all found ourselves staying in different hotels.
And as is the case with different Las Vegas hotels, cleanliness standards can be a bit different from hotel to hotel, company to company.
So while Web Watch was enjoying our crisp, clean sheets, one member of our brigade found herself being transferred from one dirty hotel room to another until she ultimately asked to be checked into a different hotel across the way.
Apparently, maid service doesn’t always check to clear the room of used.. (ahem) … from underneath the bed.
When you go out to the club, are all eyes on you?
Are you with the Party Rock Crew, where all drinks are free?
Well, to run a successful nightclub – you can’t make a habit from giving your drinks away to just anybody. Handing them out for free to Web Watch? Sure – that’s to be expected – but not everyone can get away with that like we can.
Still, when you’re making millions upon millions of dollars a year on $500 bottle service, it’s okay to throw out a free drink on occasion. Grease the celebrity wheels, if you will.

Seriously?
A recent survey has come out that asked over 1,000 men if it was okay to hit a woman if she did something to make him angry.

Interviewing for a new job can be a stressful experience. You’re trying to make the best first impression, and the employer liked your resume enough to warrant giving you a chance.
Web Watch believes that anything that’s mentioned on a resume is fair game to talk about during an interview. So if you don’t want to talk about that 8-month stint where you were an executive assistance to Jennifer Anniston if that job didn’t give you any skills that are applicable to what you’re applying for, then you might want to leave that off.

Greg Tung wanted to make this past year the most interesting year of his life.
Inspired by a quote by Eleanor Roosevelt (“Do one thing every day that scares you”), Greg decided that he was going to do just that for 365 days (plus one, to cover for leap year).
Now, everybody’s definition of what makes things “scary” is different. Greg summed “scary” up as things that he would normally go out of his way to avoid doing if he had the choice to do so.
So Greg went ahead to chronicle this personal adventure on his website, SCARE YOURSELF EVERY DAY, which Web Watch will predict will get turned into another one of those great blog-to-book projects we’ve talked about previously (Cake Wrecks, we’re looking at you!). It’s more likely to happen, since as part of the Scare Yourself project, Greg quit his job to focus on his dream of becoming a writer.
Yeah, quitting your job to follow a dream is definitely on everyone’s list of things that can scare the crap out of you.

A few months back, Web Watch wrote about the TOP 100 RESTAURANTS IN THE WORLD.
Now, while you may not be able to travel all around the world to eat at one of the top 100 restaurants, you could always try treating yourself by eating at one of these MOST EXPENSIVE RESTAURANTS IN AMERICA.
One thing that these restaurants don’t do that makes them so special? All the things that Web Watch looks for in a quality dining establishment, perfect for date night:

Web Watch does love to travel, and when we do we try to be the best, most considerate traveler we can be.
It’s not always like that, however.
We often find ourselves trying to be extra-polite to cover for those miscreants we run across who just give tourists a bad name. They’re the ones who really ruin siteseeing for everyone.
Do we really need to have a gum-filled wall in Seattle?
Really? Well, it might be considered “art” there… but it’s certainly not considered “art” when seen in a queue line at the local amusement park, is it?
Nope, there it’s just tacky, tacky. Literally, in some places.

Web Watch has previously covered news regarding how one can tell that the economy is picking up based on the increase in underwear sales.
But isn’t it time to take a look at exactly what type of worldwide retail trends we should be looking at when it comes to our underwear purchases?

If you’re a recent college graduate (or about to be one), here’s something that you should know:
It’s a jungle out there, and getting a job right out of college is not as much of a guarantee as it used to be.
When hiring managers are combing through stacks and stacks of resumes looking for the ideal candidate to fill an open position, it often comes down to just a few things that can separate the You’re Hired pile from the Don’t Bother pile.

Celebrity Chefs are a unique entity, unlike any other profession.
Where fans can watch a professional sports event (football, golf, tennis), we know that we can never be as good as they are in their particular field of play. We’ll play those sports for fun, with the full realization that we would never be able to do anything even close to what those folks are able to pull off on a regular basis.
But celebrity chefs? They’re just cooking. We can cook, too.
It doesn’t take that much skill to grill a steak to perfection – Web Watch does this all the time, and our steaks come out absolutely fantastic.
Restaurant-quality, if we do say so ourselves.
Granted, we need to pay a little more for some higher-quality ingredients on occasion to really pull off some incredible meals, but that’s a choice that we consciously make. In any case, the average home cook does have the exact same tools available to them as the Celebrity Chef does, so in some ways it really is an even playing field here.
First dates are always rough.
Especially if it’s a blind date.
You’re typically going to meet at a bar (a “safe place” for some), and order a couple of drinks and have a few laughs.
The hope is that you want to hit it off, and maybe Get Some later tonight. But you may have completely ruined your chances before you even opened your mouth.
Why?
Because First Impressions are a key element to having a successful First Date. And there is one thing you can do to ensure that your first impression is a good one.
And that’s to be careful with what you’re seen with as your first drink.

Why women like wearing push-up bras
Men – do you really wonder WHY women like wearing push-up bras, beyond the fact that they choose to do so and you get a bit of benefit from it?
Would you believe that a good bra — and in particular, a push-up bra — leads to increased confidence?
