Naps
One of the more interesting things that I remember about naps was that we HAD TO TAKE THEM IN KINDERGARTEN. What was so goofy about this was they put us down for a nap immediately after recess. Makes no sense to me as I was so wound up after having so much fun on the recess that the...
A Peanut?
A video message about how a peanut is like us? Really?

Look Closer
So busy.
We seem to all be so busy with everything that is going on in our lives. For many of us, we have not only our work, but may also have school/college, our friends, spouses, our physical health, our free time that may get taken up in trying to stay healthy by exercising,...

The value of humor is well-documented in alleviating depression, anxiety, and tension.
Lots of studies regarding humor and laughter are tied to improved immunity, psychological disposition, and general overall health.
One thing we don't want to do is do it at someone...
I don’t know if it is because I’ve watched too many cartoons in my lifetime or what, but whenever I think of the term ‘oil-slick,’ I imagine someone hitting it either in a car that they were in or they were simply running. They hit the ‘slick’ and instantly go...
Flash Anger is not something that we want to have to happen in our lives although probably ALL OF US HAVE EXPERIENCED IT.
Yes, you... Ever get really irritated if someone cuts you off in traffic? ;-)
Anger Management is a very common issue and a lot of the time we need something QUICK to...
Have you ever gone to a picnic or barbeque and you go to put some food on your paper plate and the plate is so flimsy that it can barely hold the food?
Man, why would they even make something so flimsy?
You say this to yourself as you’re walking back to where you’re going...
