I recently heard from a health professional that we do not, in fact, lose 70% of our body heat through our heads. It's more like 10%. Doesn't that just make more sense?

I recently got my latest pair of my go-to shoes, the Merrell Chameleon 4 Stretch. They are fucking awesome.

Why is Kevin Costner suddenly blowing up? Again?

I think American cheese is disgusting. It's not even cheese.

Finally, a new season of Pirates baseball that doesn't come on the heels of double digit consecutive losing seasons. How cool is that?

Boy Mayor may be gone ... but he refuses to be forgotten. He is still stirring up trouble.

Subway is now serving flatbread (read: pizza). That seems weird to me.

The Muppets are brilliant. Just brilliant.

I think LL Cool J is a much better actor than Ice-T.

I am leaning toward hating the word "trending."

My hair grows quickly. All of my hair. Including the hair in my nose. So, I am constantly trimming things in there so that it never gets out of control. I guess I'm kind of obsessive about it. But I'm the same way about my finger and toe nails. Which, fun fact, also grow unusually fast.

Well, I have finally eaten at the Cheesecake Factory. I just had a dinner salad, but it was good. I was saving myself for dessert (it was the Cheesecake Factory, after all), and I ordered not cheesecake, but carrot cake. It was . . . not very good. I guess that's why they don't call it the Carrot Cake Factory.

I don't like Ethan Hawke's dirty-looking, messed-up hair. What's the deal with that? Take a shower before you go on TV.

Brewed On Grant: Pothole Patcher

Mayor Bill Peduto was seen on Pittsburgh streets this past weekend shoveling blacktop into potholes.

Now that I have a Mac, I decided to purchase my first e-book. So, what did I buy? I bought Tortilla Flat by John Steinbeck. Pretty anticlimactic, huh?

Why do some paper towels and some toilet tissue have hearts, butterflies, and flowers on them?

I get Sam Waterston confused with David Strathairn. If you don't know who these guys are, then Google them. If you have time to read my blog, then you have time to Google.

For years I've heard Pittsburghers say things during a typical rainy winter like, "I would rather have snow." Well, this has been the winter for you. Instead of being a wet winter, this one has definitely been littered with multiple snowfalls. Is it possible to miss the rain?

Have you seen the commercial for the Toyota Highlander featuring the Muppets? I don't know how I feel about the Muppets selling things.

DAVE: This game is a debacle.

JIM: I guess we can be happy for Pete Carroll. He has Pitt ties.

DAVE: Doesn’t it seem like everybody has Pitt ties?

JIM: Not Peyton Manning. And look what happened to him.
