At 35 years old, Seth MacFarlane has made a great achievement. Not only has his creation been raking in top ratings, it has also earned him a spot into the $100 million dollar man circle. Yes, that’s right, for “The Family Guy”, “The American Dad” and “Cleveland” Fox studio has served him a $100 million dollar contract to keep their family guy as happy as he can be.
Just heard recently that “Family Guy” has even trumped “The Simpsons” in popularity and total earnings. I am a huge fan of Homer and his family, but I’m getting up over the fence to meet the new family on prime time TV.

If you are among the millions people who, like me, use TripAdvisor to check out and compare accommodations before booking a hotel, you might want to learn how to spot fake reviews. According to Cornell University researchers, the top signs of fake reviews include: a narrative account of a holiday, excessive use of superlatives, and [...]
Reconciliations heal the soul. Strife and tension never was anyone’s cup of tea. I know that most people seem to be able to stand decades of their lifetimes bitter, angry, and unforgiving of the people who have hurt them, but I am of the belief that unforgiveness and anger should never be the hallmark of [...]
