Welcome

Welcome to my ever-evolving blog. It started out as a blog on Beachbody workouts and products, mainly when I was a Beachbody coach. I no longer coach, not because I don't believe in Beachbody's programs (I subscribe to Beachbody on Demand and use their workouts every day), I am just not a salesperson and hated that aspect of it. I am more than willing to answer questions about my experiences with their products and the various workouts, and I feel freer to do so without the appearance of giving a biased review of something.

I have also started adding reviews for various things I have purchased like movies, books, CDs, and other products. This was brought about by a fight with Amazon in which all of my reviews were removed over a completely bullshit allegation that I posted a review that violated their terms of service. After going back and forth with the morons in the community-reviews department (even after they admitted that my posts did not violate their guidelines) they restored my account (which took them six months to do), but I have been posting my reviews on my blog to have them preserved in case something like that happens again. And here, I will post uncensored reviews so I will swear from time to time and post reviews that may be longer than Amazon's character limit. Everything I post here on any topic or product is my personal opinion, and I take no compensation for any product reviews I post. I am a member of Amazon's vine program and because I get those products for free, I keep those reviews on Amazon only, but everything I have purchased with my own money, whether from Amazon or some other store/website/outlet, I will post here.  

I also plan to do some longer blog posts on various topics, such as how to learn physics, how to get through calculus, and longer reviews of workout programs as I do them. Basically, whatever strikes me as interesting at the time.  As you can see if you navigate around the blog, I had many years in between postings. During that time I was going back to school to get an engineering degree, and learning material that I avoided my first time through college was a different experience and one that gave me a lot of insight into how to do well in those classes, which I will try to impart here for those who are looking to get a science or engineering degree.

Product Review: LONIN Sponge Holder Over Faucet Kitchen Sink Caddy Organizer

 


This is a basket that can be installed on a pull-down faucet that can hold sponges and/or scrubbers to keep them out of the sink (or a bin that can attach to the inside of the sink) and prevent them from getting soggy and/or trapped under dishes. Many times the bins will have small holes, but will not be small enough to allow a sponge sitting in it to really dry out. This is very easy to install, just screw off the end piece, put the basket around the faucet and then screw the end piece back on. The basket will move if you rotate the faucet from side to side, so you position the basket based on how far you rotate the faucet. As long as you wring out the sponge, it is not really a big deal to have the basket over the counter as you will only get a couple of drips which you can wipe up with a paper towel. This is definitely worth the price and I highly recommend it.
