  • I would say its a common occurrence. My grandfather passed away leaving a pizza shop earlier this year. Back when I was a kid and my parents took me to church, I remember always going to IHOP, Bob Evans, or Perkins after for breakfast (don’t worry, my family weren’t the type to go for breakfast/brunch to yell at teenage wait staff after church) and I distinctly remember 4 occasions where a fellow diner passed away or had a serious health issue hit them while eating. Bob Evans was the one I remember most. Everything there is very high in sodium and they encourage you to add more. Fun fact: about 2/3 of Americans living with high blood pressure don’t know they have it. We live with far too much stress and far too much sodium.









  • I never really dreamed of being anything when I grew up but now that I’m older I would say I wish I stuck with skateboarding and baseball. I was really good at baseball as a kid. I actually got picked up to play at the LLWS on ESPN when I was 13. About a month after, I broke my wrist skateboarding and gained weight which took me out of baseball for good. It took decades but since then, I’ve lost over 100lbs and I’m back to a healthier lifestyle. Skateboarding just holds some of my best memories from childhood, especially going to the old Vans skatepark at Potomac Mills (does anyone remember the video you could unlock of Tony Hawk doing a 900 on THPS1? That was filmed on the 16’ halfpipe at Vans in Potomac Mills) I remember at one point they had a wall of tvs with xbox, playstation, and gamecube consoles too for the adults and younger siblings. I gotta stop or nobody will have time to read my nostalgia-bomb novel over here.
