A host is a host of course of course
I don't normally like to brag, but one time when I was 8 and I got a tapeworm, the doctor - who I have to say showed some real thoughtfulness in an otherwise awful situation - told me I was "the perfect host."

When gambling in Las Vegas, you should always make sure you understand the point of each game before playing. Otherwise, you might find yourself in a really awkward situation like I did at the craps table.

Avoid high-priced hoes (and other handy landscaping tips)
Ah, spring is in the air. Not to mention all over my car.
That's right, the ceremonial 2-inch-thick layer of pollen is upon us signaling the beginning of growing season. Which means it's time for you to get outside and do battle with Mother Nature in the form of yard work.

So you finally got up the nerve to march into your boss's office and tell him you feel underappreciated and underpaid. Naturally, he was impressed by your assertiveness and candor, and promptly fired you.

Making (non)sense of the economy
This week, I open up the floor to you, the financially strapped reader, to ask any questions you might have regarding our country's toilet-bound economy. For instance, you might be wanting to know stuff such as, "When is this recession going to end?" and, "You're going to forward these questions to an actual financial planner, right?" We'll answer them all.

When camping, don't do what Bryce does
It's time for Part Two of our critically acclaimed series on the do's and don'ts of camping.
In this week's installment, we will attempt to answer such burning questions as, "How much water should you pack for a three-week camping trip?" "What do you do if it starts raining outside and your beagle, who is in the tent with you, develops really bad gas?" and "How are you going to answer all these questions when you're using the 'do' and 'don't' format?"

Making (non)sense of the economy
This week, I open up the floor to you, the financially strapped reader, to ask any questions you might have regarding our country's toilet-bound economy. For instance, you might be wanting to know stuff such as, "When is this recession going to end?" and, "You're going to forward these questions to an actual financial planner, right?" We'll answer them all.

25 things you may not know (or want to know) about me
For years I've written this column and never really let you "in."

When camping, don't do what Bryce does
It's time for Part Two of our critically acclaimed series on the do's and don'ts of camping.
In this week's installment, we will attempt to answer such burning questions as, "How much water should you pack for a three-week camping trip?" "What do you do if it starts raining outside and your beagle, who is in the tent with you, develops really bad gas?" and "How are you going to answer all these questions when you're using the 'do' and 'don't' format?"

How to be the best best man
