By Mickey Hadick, on February 13th, 2008% I love the first cup of coffee in the morning like nobody’s business. The aroma turns my head and draws me near as it brews.

By Mickey Hadick, on February 12th, 2008% It used to be that how one squeezed the toothpaste tube could ruin a marriage. If you were a ham-fisted buffoon that grabbed the tube in the middle, you’d soon trap a third of the toothpaste at the bottom. And what a horrible reminder to your wife that she would never be caressed gently or . . . → Read More: Toothpaste Tubes

By Mickey Hadick, on November 10th, 2007% When I played hockey, most of the guys on the team would blow their nose by closing one nostril with a finger and blowing, spewing phlegm across the ice.

By Mickey Hadick, on November 3rd, 2007% When it comes to ending telephone conversations, I have lost the ability to hang up the damn phone. It becomes an awkward series of… “Okay…see you…take care…talk to you later…have a good evening…alright….later…mm-hmm…goodbye…bye.
