A new study of over 2000 vegans entitled VEGAN FROM THE INSIDE shows that veganism really isn’t as weird or awful as it might sound to those who don’t practice it or aren’t familiar with the diet.

Web Watch knows many people who have dated, and even married, a co-worker.
Some say that the workplace is the ultimate place to find love, and the “work spouse” is not often the joke that it once was. This is especially true in today’s world, where the workplace can eat up 1/3 to 1/2 of your day, meaning that you may be spending more time at work than you are at home, asleep.
Hey, it happens.
If someone asks you “how much do you love your car”, you shouldn’t be asking yourself whether the person is inquiring about whether you physically make love to your car, or just appreciate what your car brings to your life and well-being.
No, we don’t need to know about your lovelife with your car, no matter how much you like it’s fast moves and sleek lines.
But that’s not necessarily was discovered in RECENT STUDIES OF CAR LOVERS. No, it looks like the folks at Jiffy Lube and InsuranceQuotes.com had other things on their mind with their line of questioning. Let’s take a look…
You know how some women dress a certain way because they believe that it makes them look sexy (even if it doesn’t)?
Or put on too much makeup, or poof their hair higher than it should?
Yes, it’s a mating ritual based on a perception on enhancing one’s outward appearance in order to attract a significant someone.
Men do the same thing, but often in a different way – some do it with fancy cars, big suits, or other things that emit levels of flash and style.
Do you hate waiting in line at the grocery store, waiting to check-out and head back home with your cart full of groceries?
Are you easily aggravated by the idiot in front of you who decides to use the self-scan machines to meticulously and slowly scan and bag their cart that’s full of 100+ items, when all you need to do is buy that half-gallon of ice cream and six-pack of beer before heading on your merry way? (Seriously – there should be a time limit on the self-scan machines: if you can’t scan your cart, pay, and get out of the way in less than 3 minutes, you need to be escorted directly to the end of the full-service line and clear the path for those of us who know what we’re doing.)
Bruce Hornsby and the Range: The Way It Is
If you’re one of the millions of people who are still out of work and trying to get a job, there is hope — the economy is picking up in some sectors and locations, and everywhere Web Watch looks there are “help wanted” signs posted. Granted, they may not be posted for jobs that everyone is interested in, but a job is a job to some… and if you don’t take it, someone who is already working two jobs to make ends meet will probably swoop in and take on a third just because they can.
Which brings us to today’s post, where we talk about a jobs-related survey done by Rutgers University entitled The Shattered American Dream: Unemployed Workers Lose Ground, Hope, and Faith in their Futures.
The Happiest Toddler on the Block: How to Eliminate Tantrums
The NYTimes is reporting that a recent CDC survey on family life states that 96% OF PARENTS THINK THEIR CHILDREN ARE WELL-BEHAVED (see page 148 of report).
If you’ve been out to eat at a restaurant lately or shopped at the local mall, you know that perception just can’t be true.
