How can anyone get married and not go on a decent honeymoon to some exotic locale?

Web Watch knows someone who’s idea of an exotic honeymoon destination was Branson, Missouri.  And before you comment to mock the happy couple – they’ve been together 15 years and have been back to Branson a number of times.

Different strokes for different folks. It’s what makes their relationship special.

New diet tip: get drunk, not fat

Drink This, Not That
Drink This, Not That

David Zinczenko, Matt Goulding, and the rest of the gang at Men’s Health have a great concept that Web Watch wholeheartedly agrees with — if you want to lose weight the easy way, just change what you eat through simple meal replacements.

Like the photo above, you can still have your giant-sized coffee beverage, but the Starbucks version will save you 200 calories and 30 grams of fat.

But let’s face it – their book is full of practical advice when what we really want are the details surrounding the unpublished information on the drinks we really enjoy: beer and liquor.

Who does the most unpaid work around the world? (hint: it ain’t the US)

Mom CEO (Chief Everything Officer)TM - Having, Doing, and Surviving It All!

Having, Doing, and Surviving It All!

Let’s face it – some countries are just better at some things than others.  For example, the French and the Italians are known for their food.  This doesn’t mean that other countries aren’t good at their own food, but what’s the first thing you ask someone when they say they’re heading off for a vacation in Italy? 

That’s right.  Web Watch can’t explain it, it just is.
