Gather round, fellow diners, and feast your eyes upon the meal that sits before me, for I have ascended to a new level of gastronomy. As you gape in awe at my order, I welcome you with open arms as an acolyte ready to worship at the altar of my culinary majesty.
For I, your friend and newly anointed food deity, have forgone the customary side order of french fries and instead ordered a side salad.
You wonder whether the whispers of the personal trainer I often speak of factored into my decision to replace the beloved yet calorie-rich french fry with a bowl of spring mix bathed in balsamic vinaigrette. They did not. Rather, after being yelled at while sweat poured from every pore in my body for an hour straight this morning, I am more than deserving of a serious carb load. Yet willpower is a formidable tool in my belt of dietary supremacy, and, as such, this mélange of leafy greens graces my plate.

Weekend at Bernie’s is about being wealthy in America: babes, boats, fraud. According to my mother, Weekend at Bernie’s qualifies as a movie, not a film. In 1989, when the movie hit theaters, it flopped. The critic Roger Ebert said the twist wasn’t funny enough to carry the story forward. He hated it. But what he didn’t see, may he RIP, was that the one-note, unapologetically crass materialism was worth the rental price of seeing it through to the end.
Dear parents,
We are thrilled to have your child on our summer baseball team. We have a few apps we use to help keep things organized around here, so parents, players, and coaches are all on the same page.
First, you’ll need to register for TeamSplinter. Be sure to use the team code, which is W&TGHG7896M. If that doesn’t work, try GIOUGKJHT()(&^^*666. If that doesn’t work, try rebooting your router. Actually, you know what, just ask your kid to show you how to do it.
Next, please make sure you’re on GameUpdater because TeamSplinter won’t display the score. We have state-of-the-art fields, lights, and bleachers, but for some reason, we don’t have functioning scoreboards. After you download GameUpdater, find the name of our team, the name of our opponent, and then enter your child’s date of birth, their blood type, and the locations of any known birthmarks to log in.
