So, the PNC revealed the latest indicators today about just how bad our economy is doing post-subprime mortgage crisis. The costs of the 12 Days of Christmas this year: $78,100 That’s up 4% from last year, which was only $75,122. Mind you, you’re buying some of the items repeatedly (ie. a partridge in a pear [...]

Why do I love Thanksgiving so much? Maybe it has to do with the fact that you get a break from school and chill with a bunch of people and just eat, drink and have a good time. There’s really no gift exchange obligation involved. There’s inevitably leftovers and shopping. Movies are watched and sleep [...]

I think that if there was a theme for last week, it is coffee. An American study found this past week that coffee helps reduce the risk of skin cancer. (I like to read outside.) A Japanese study found that coffee helps reduce colon cancer. (I’m sure when I’m 60, I’ll appreciate that.) And another [...]

Gilmore Girls is officially over. It was a very pleasant and resolved ending. (I mean, come on, Rory’s working for Obama. How could it be more perfect?) But I seriously think that while watching the episode I was the most emotional I’ve been since my mom dropped me off at Middlebury. Oh man. How am [...]
