Want to avoid getting norovirus? Stop doing laundry

If you’ve ever been sick while on vacation, you know what a horrible experience it can be. Trust Web Watch on this, as we spent 2 miserable days holed up in our Disney hotel room on one vacation to the Happiest Place on Earth, unable to leave the relative comfort of the room for any length of time.

Yeah, it wasn’t pretty.

And if you’ve ever been sick while on a cruise ship where you don’t even have the luxury of finding a place to escape like you would have the opportunity to do if you were on land, then you can take the Web Watch Disney experience and multiply that by 100.

Everybody has a career line item that you’ve considered leaving off your resume for various reasons.

For some, it’s because you don’t want to acknowledge ever having worked at that company. For others, it’s because the job was so horrible that you didn’t even make it an entire year.

Maybe you were asked to leave, as a mutually beneficial decision. Maybe you just left your ID badge on your desk, walked out without a word to anyone, and quietly slipped out while nobody was watching.

Regardless of your reasons for hating your job, you should rest happy knowing one thing:

And yet, the question keeps coming up over and over from various artists: HOW MUCH MONEY CAN I MAKE ONLINE WITH MUSIC?

And the answer keeps coming back as “not as much as you’d think”.

1 Comment on Woman arrested for DWS: Driving While Shaving

What’s your most embarrassing arrest story?

Oh, you have to have one. That one time that you were doing something completely, totally ridiculous — but it made sense at the time – but you ended up getting arrested for it?

Even if what you were doing was perfectly fine if you handled your business at home?

Would you have sex with a stranger? Chances are, yes.

Would you have sex with a stranger?

It’s a common thought, honestly. Many of you think it over almost every single minute of the day, as you’re driving in rush-hour traffic and take a casual glance at the person driving next to you. Walking down the street and getting a glance from someone at the coffee shop. Passing someone going the other direction on the escalator.

It may be a fleeting moment, but you think it – just for a second. “What if…”. And then, like that, the moment has passed and you’ve moved on with your task at hand.

Ever wonder how much month there is to make in the restaurant business?

For the vast majority of small business owners, restaurants are one of the riskiest businesses to try to run; the failure rate is daunting.

But when you hit on a location, concept, menu, or otherwise have a high level of repeat customers who you can rely on for a steady income — then you have something.

And if you get to the point where you can appear on a list of the TOP GROSSING RESTAURANTS IN THE COUNTRY, then you know you’ve hit the big time.

Math is hard; let’s go shopping!

There’s a running joke at Web Watch about one’s ability – or inability – to handle math that’s more advanced than the basic multiplication table.

We’ve counted on our fingers in public more often than we care to note, and we are often despised at the blackjack tables — not because we don’t know the rules of the game or make the incorrect strategy decisions, but rather because we slow the game down tremendously while we determine whether we should hit or stay on a 6 of clubs and an 8 of hearts vs a dealer’s up-card of 4.

Yeah, 6+8 shouldn’t be a difficult piece of math to remember, but sometimes things aren’t as easy as they look.

Prince was right: Purple bedrooms are voted “most romantic”

What color is your bedroom?

Do you like a vibrant, brothel-colored RED bedroom? Or are you more of a cool, soothing off-white neutral color (because it helps with the home sale)?

Colors can certainly affect ones mood – but now surveys show us that there’s one mood that color REALLY has an effect on:
