Venting: A Geographical Focus
I am not going to complain about the people here. I am not going to complain about the culture here. I am not going to complain about anything that I could potentially do anything about.

A letter to the Carrabba’s server from last night
Dear Waiter at Carrabba’s last night,

By: Jared Newman, PCWorld
It’s Doppelganger Week on Facebook, which means if anyone’s ever said you sort of, kind of look like a famous actor, musician or athlete, now’s the chance to pretend you’re just as beautiful.

Grading Hotels: A “How To” Guide
Hotels come in many shapes and sizes. Some have nostalgia, some have glitz, some have modern art. All have beds, night stands, Gideon Bibles, semi-helpful staff, and some what uncomfortably narrow space between the tub and the toilet. All have names that you have heard of Hilton, La Quinta, Howard Johnson, Holiday Inn, Days Inn, Double Tree, Hyatt, Marriott and myriad others. “MATT, HOW DO YOU DECIDE WHERE TO STAY,” I hear you cry.
