The Original Extreme Sport - (USA)
I'm sure some of you have heard of this by now, but apparently everyone's favourite security-guard-fighting, three-trick-havin, hockey-jersey-wearin professional skateboarder Mike V will be teaming up with NHL's Aneheim Mighty Ducks for a line of co-branded apparel. This clothing line will be sold at the Aneheim Ducks Team store. Co-branded? I was not aware that Mike V was in himself a brand. Shows what I know. Vallely will also be featured in his own blog on the Ducks' web page. I really can't

The week on tap: NL MVP today, AL MVP announced Tuesday; Sonic MVP Molly Erdman speaks NOW! - (USA)
And you thought it couldn't be done. No chance a poor, shlubby little blog like our own could get the Sonic Siren, Diva of the Drive-thru, Molly Erdman to chat with us. Especially after some on-line stalking. Well, either I'm an investigator or Molly Erdman, the star of so many Sonic commercials, who just happens to be from Dallas and who just happens to be the object of my crush of the moment, is an incredibly good sport. Molly, as I like to call her, and I have been emailing a bit over the w

My Quarter Century - (USA)
When they write the book of my life, what section will I be in? Mystery? Horror? Romance? Or just misfiled and jammed in the back under military history? -Samantha, Samantha Who? Last weekend I celebrated turning a quarter of a century. I know that for some of my readers, this seems pretty young, but for me, it’s a milestone birthday. In my young life, I’ve experienced many ups and downs. I’ve survived some atrocious relationships, over ten different moves (all after I graduated high school),

Get A Hobbie - (USA)
According to Dictionary.com, a hobby is an activity or interest pursued outside one’s regular occupation and engaged in primarily for pleasure (Dictionary.com). Merriam-Webster defines a hobby as a pursuit outside one’s regular occupation engaged in especially for relaxation (Merriam Webster Dictionary). A hobby is relaxation and pleasure, OUTSIDE of ones occupation. Many people today, go to work, come home, do not do anything, and then go back to work the next day, like mindless drones slaving

The Free-dom Of Summer - (USA)
One of the things I love about summer is the simple fun you can have without spending any money. Sure, you can spend tons and go to a water park or any number of things if you want to and that’s fine but if you don’t want to spend a lot you really don’t have to. Summer, in comparison to the other seasons, has SO many more fun things to do for FREE. Yesterday I took the three girls to a family member’s camp on a lake. We spent most of the day there, where they played in the sand, threw about 5

Summer Style: Decorate With Summer Sports - (USA)
This weekend, while shopping at the Alameda Flea Market , I nearly bought a beautiful vintage croquet set. Now, when I see how the set has been used in this space, I'm kicking myself for not making the purchase! This foyer is practically bursting with Summer spirit. To cultivate a similar sense of fun and spirit in your entry, add an often-used Summer sports set to your foyer. Pile bocce balls in a sturdy metal bucket, or artfully arrange croquet mallets in an umbrella stand. It'll add some f

A Beach Holiday In The French Capital, Paris? Strange, But True… - (USA)
Topics: paris, holiday Anyone who knows their French geography can tell you that the idea of a beach in Paris is nothing short of crazy. Crazy perhaps, but not impossible. In fact, for the sixth year in a row during 20th July and 19th August, the idea actually becomes a reality, as Paris celebrates the summer festival ‘Paris Plages’. In 2002, the mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoe gave his support to a project designed to bring the seaside a little closer to Parisians that couldn’t afford a be

Gluten-Free Summer Camps - (USA)
A while back we mentioned one gluten-free camp with specially written gluten-free music. It turns out that there are many, many gluten-free camps to which you can send your child.

Even in the small subcategory of GF-friendly camps, parents and children have a wide range of options. Camp WeeKanEatit!! of

A Birthday Party…An Introduction to Bocce Ball - (USA)

Big Family Games Review (Wii) - (USA)
The Wii has entirely new genres of games. For example, there’s the mini-game collection that involves swinging the Wii Remote like a bat genre. There’s also the mini-game collection that involves swinging the Wii Remote like you’re throwing a ball genre. Big Family Games falls in the latter genre. There are 24 games in Big Family Games, but just about all of them are variants of “throw something at something using an underarm throw.” None of them are remotely as entertaining as Wii Spor

Ambiguously Gay Marketing, French Bocce, & a CA 2nd Label (Sampling Pétanque) - (USA)
I liked Mike Brunson almost immediately. When I met the Michel-Schlumberger winemaker , it was a brilliantly sunny and warm October day in Sonoma, and the Michel-Schlumberger estate was certainly living up to its reputation in terms of gorgeous places to visit in Dry Creek Valley. Mike seemed pretty down to earth for someone who was making a go at creating ‘prestige cuvee’ style wines that retail for $50+ a bottle. He certainly knew the estate property like the back of his hand, and was cl

The Olympic Games--Not Necessarily Sports - (USA)
When I was a kid I used to love watching the Olympics. I can still remember watching Kerri Strug break her ankle landing the vault and clenching the gold for America in the snap heard 'round the world. But now, it seems that there are some events included in the Olympic Games that most people would not consider a sport. Take fencing for example. At the writing of this, the USA has won 1 Gold, 1 Silver, and 2 Bronze medals in this sport. Sword fighting is all great when it is done by Jonny D

Getting the Ball in YOUR Court: Combining Sports with Romance - (USA)
Whether its baseball, football, basketball, bocce or beer pong, men love to watch, play and gamble. Most spend much of the first 20 years of their lives playing sports competitively. They then try to regain their youthful form during the next 30 playing for a town softball team or adult basketball league at the local gym. If both knees aren’t blown out by the time they’re 50 and their back hasn’t formed a 90 degree angle with their legs, men might pick up golf or tennis to keep their bodies in s

Tailgating at FDR Park in Philly - (USA)
When it comes to tailgating, I love the food, the friends, the lawn games, and the random interactions with strangers. But let’s face it, I’m really here for the booze - everything else is a plus. In my opinion, some of the best tailgates can be totally impromptu. Stopping for a case of Miller Lite and a Styrofoam cooler and breaking out cornhole in a parking lot can be a great time. But there is something very rewarding about a tailgate done right. And that is what I have been in search of ev
