Spelling Tip of the Day
I have always had a hard time spelling the word "hors d'oeuvres," for the times I've sent out party invites. And it's a pain in the tush to try and find it on M-W.com. So here's a good way to remember how to spell it:

"Decisions, Decisions" Tip of the Day
Guys, I know we have a hard time deciding on things. Whether it's between sausage or canadian bacon, Ford or Chevy, holy matrimony or lifelong bachelorhood, Arsenal or Manchester United, Legos or Lincoln Logs. I admit, sometimes we get stuck, astounded by the vast array of options in front of us, afraid to commit to any one of them, for fear of offending the pepperoni.
But gentlemen, it's time we committed! Or as Shakespeare said, in a completely unrelated context, "Once more unto the breach, dear friends!"
So without further ado, I'd like to present you with the solutions to the quandaries introduced above:
1) Canadian bacon does have an exotic reputation going for it. After all, it's international! You can almost envision those stoic bacon miners, the wild and free men of the great white north, delving deep into the earth in pursuit of that elusive vein of canadian bacon ore! Sadly, and I don't mean to disillusion anyone, but it's really indisce…

But yeah, it's not for the sensitive friends among us. It can come across as hurtful. You just have to be thick-skinned!
