Most states in the U.S. are dealing with a major outbreak of “super lice,” according to a new study in the Journal of Medical Entomology. The thought alone is enough to make your skin crawl, but it’s especially troubling because the news comes at a time when children are starting to head back to school. [1] Just How Bad Is It? Well, it’s pretty bad. Scientists tested lice in 48 states and found that a shocking 42 of them are overrun with the mutant bugs. In these states, 100% of the lice tested were resistant to over-the-counter (OTC) treatments: Washington California Nevada Arizona Utah Idaho … Continue reading →

We had a caller to the Car Pro Radio Show this past weekend who said his wife was wanting a new Jeep Wrangler.  I asked, as I always do if she had owned one before, and what her current vehicle was.  She had a Jeep, but it was not a Wrangler.  This always raises red flags with me.  Personally, I like Wranglers, but it is not a vehicle I would want as a daily driver, and my experience tells me that they are not for everyone, but those who love them, REALLY love them. I suggested that they rent one … Continue reading →

GSTAAD—“He’d fly through the air with the greatest of ease, that daring young man on the flying trapeze.” As everyone knows, life’s unfair, but this is ridiculous. An American daredevil falls out of an airplane at 25,000 feet without a parachute and manages to land on a postage-stamp-size net without a scratch. The poor little Greek boy falls off a balcony ten to fifteen feet high, lands on gravel, and breaks many bones in his body. Being encased in plaster is similar to living under a strict dictatorship—North Korea, for example. There’s no crime, no muggings, but as far as … Continue reading →

For the developed world, clean drinking water is taken for granted. It’s one of the first things that a society has to figure out how to provide on a wide scale before it can be considered modern. However, just because the water that flows through your taps is free of dangerous microorganisms, doesn’t necessarily mean that your water is clean. If anything, it seems like the modern world has traded “water filled with bacteria” for “water filled with strange chemicals and heavy metals.” Here in the US, the public is starting to realize that their tap water isn’t nearly as … Continue reading →
