Good day fellow cooks! Ready your paper plates! Break out your Hello Kitty apron! Plug in the microwave! It’s time for “Cooking With Vince!”
Chess openings…Google it and see how many results you get. Did your computer yell at you and tell you to go climb a tree? Figured. There are hundreds upon thousands of different openings one could employ when you sit down to play chess. Some people memorize these openings like their life depended on it. Others are more free style.
You haven’t fully experienced life to its fullest until you’ve been a parent. It’s an experience that we as human beings struggle with on a daily basis despite having done it for thousands of years. Writers publish books, teachers hold parenting classes, experienced nannies appear on television shows…yet everyone seems to have a different opinion. It’s funny how many opinions are the “correct ones” when they involve YOUR kids.
For those of you that know me, I’m fairly easy-going and quiet. For those of you that know me very well, you have come to realize that I have more quirks than Jim Henson has muppets.
More and more people are doing this “new” thing called Twitter. I honestly don’t understand the hype.
The Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus is called “The Greatest Show on Earth.” As someone who doesn’t like clowns, I beg to differ. Allow me to explain.
Castling. It’s a move in chess that people often take for granted. Once you figure out how to do it, you do it every game for the next three hundred games because you believe that it makes you look smart. You may do it all the time simply because somewhere somehow you were convinced it will would increase your chances of winning for various reasons. I am here to tell you to abandon that train of thought and to keep reading if you want to know if castling is indeed, smart.
When Starfleet needs to put its best foot forward, they turn to a color blind tailor that has trouble figuring out how to fold a piece of paper. Seriously, I couldn’t find one redeeming Star Trek dress uniform out of the ones I recalled from memory with the exception of one that really wasn’t meant to be a dress uniform. Maybe you might have a different opinion…
Need ideas for your next family dinner? Flying solo for the evening and need a quick meal to quell those hunger pains? Never fear, I have just what you need.
It’s not often that something comes along and completely blows me off my feet in the way of PC games. Dungeon Defenders did just that. It’s a combination of tower defense, shooter, and role-playing game. Allow me to explain for those of you who aren’t hip enough to know the lingo.
Call me old, but I really don’t understand why someone felt the need to reboot this awful show. I was around when it aired on MTV and even back then when I was easily swayed by peer pressure I wanted nothing to do with it. Let’s take a look at what supposedly passes as humor shall we?
“Ahhhhhh! Snake!”
If you are hearing this being yelled in your home, chances are one of two things is happening. Either you or a family member just soiled their pants, or Billy The Exterminator is on your television set.
Finally, we get to cover the last chess piece in this ongoing chess tutorial, the Pawn.
“Wearing a red shirt” is a phrase you’ve probably heard time and time again but never understood the reference. Had you been watching Star Trek like good little boys and girls I wouldn’t have to create this article, but as it stands, you need my help badly.
At the request of one of my awesome readers, I’m going to revisit this in an effort to further make my point.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) and acid reflux are often used together, but are two totally different things. If you’ve ever woken up in the middle of the night gasping for air because of an obstruction in your airway due to a thick liquid like substance sitting there, followed by a lot of coughing, burning in your throat, and sometimes vomiting, then congratulations, you’ve just undergone a severe form of acid reflux. Harvey, tell the good reader what they’ve won!
