After more than two decades of watching holiday horror movies, We have built one hell of a tradition and so we don’t revisit any movies here is a list of the years past. 2025: The Naughty List of Mr. Scrooge (2024) and Better Watch Out (2016) 2024: A Christmas Horror Story (2015) 2023: Santa Isn’t […]

‘Twas the night before Christmas, and all through the house, not a creature was stirring -unless you count the shadows on the walls and the dogs barking at nothing in particular. Maxine and I curled up on the couch, ready to honor our favorite Christmas Eve tradition: Tater Tots and a good old B horror […]

We had a great time this weekend at Bust N Stuff. It was the perfect place to blow off some steam and just let go for a while. After the year we had, it’s just what the doctor ordered.

Today is a very special day. We brought Tater home from MADACC! He was found wandering around Milwaukee, but it didn’t take long for him to find exactly where he belongs. Tater fit right in from the moment he walked through the door. Tail wagging, nose exploring, and curiosity turned up to 100. He’s already […]

After spending three hours shoveling 9.5 inches of snow, it’s official summer is over. I came inside, dried off, and immediately threw my bike on the trainer. Look out, Zwift… off-season training has officially begun.

Today’s the day – Black Friday – and I just locked in my spot for the 2026 Seeds N Stone Roubaix rravel race in Waterman, IL. After taking fourth past year, I’m coming back with a hunger and aiming for the podium. Off-season training has already started, and over the next six months it’s all […]

For six months, we managed his brain tumor with medication, patience, and a whole lot of love, but yesterday his journey came to an end. Even knowing this day was coming didn’t make it any […]

I just tore apart the bottom bracket on my BMX bike to install a new sprocket 🔧😅 Gotta give a shoutout to 25-year-old Brad and Corey for greasing those threads and splines when we initially put it together all those years ago — you guys made life way easier for 53-year-old me today!

I recently ordered an Old Bones elbow brace, and after wearing it for the past 48 hours, my arm hasn’t felt this good since my crash at the Coon Fork Gravel Race back in August. After months of soreness and stiffness, this brace has been a game-changer—finally giving my arm the support it’s needed to […]

We’re so excited to introduce the newest addition to our family—Eddie, a spirited two-year-old Cairn Terrier! We recently adopted this little guy from MADACC (Milwaukee Area Domestic Animal Control Commission), and he’s already stolen our hearts (and a few socks). Eddie’s full of energy, personality, and that classic terrier curiosity that keeps us on our […]
