Have you seen that Swiffer commercial with the older couple dancing in their kitchen? They’re not actors, but a real life married couple in their 90’s. They are Morty and Lee Kaufman who live in Valley Stream, New York and they taped the commercial in their house over two days and without a script.

The NBC Today Show aired a segment on teen Sexting recently and focused on how it has changed the relationship of parenting.

A new video on YouTube provides a very cool and quick way to check and see if your batteries are dead.

What bad purchases have you made that you want to warn others about? What are you scared to buy based on what you've heard? When I bought a 50" TV I also purchased a 3 year extended warranty. Guess what? Three years and three months later, it needed a $500 repair, no help at all from the warranty company. Never again.

A koi pond can literally add life to your backyard or garden, as well as sublime beauty and maybe even some much needed tranquility.

This Baltimore couple has decided to move out of their normal-sized home and move into a really tiny one. Greg Cantori and his wife Renee bought this 238 square foot house, that was on wheels, for only 19 grand. Now they plan to split their time living there and in a sailboat. Believe it or not, this tiny, two bedroom home includes a bathroom with a full shower, a kitchen, a fireplace, and 16 wind

I have a 19 year old son who sometimes clashes with his step-mom. They used to get along, but my wife has made it pretty clear to him what she wants and doesn't want around the house. Often my role as dad has me caught in the middle. I'm pretty sure he doesn’t want to get his step-mom anything for Mother’s Day. I don't think she expects anything from him, but I do...am I right or wrong?

My wife and I believe that children who grow up in homes where books are plentiful go further in school than those who don't. This is why our son Dylan's room has plenty of books. Now I'd be misleading you if I told you he can read a book all by himself or draw a picture about the book without his parents assistance, but for age 4, we're impressed with his progress.

That's a cool house. If I had the money I would buy it. We know that's what you're thinking and if you have the money, good news. Dick Clark's Flintstones-themed house in Malibu has been reduced in price. It apparently is an unsellable freak of architecture. It's been on the market for about a year now and no one's bought it. Now the asking price has been heavily discounted.

So how many of that do you need to be happy? Do we need another of those, or can we live with just one? There are some things I have two of that I'm just thrilled about. I have two nieces, two nephews, two sons and two brothers. I work two jobs and live in a two story house (with two Christmas trees). But what about the things we have two of that we can live without. Do you need two cell phones? T

The gas tanks are full, and our refrigerators are also full. Perhaps we're over-reacting a bit, but just in case, we've taken a few steps around our household to prepare for what Hurricane Sandy may bring Central New York. First, our radios are set to Lite 98.7 for information updates, next...

And I did  it all by myself. Have you ever injured yourself to the point you needed medical attention? I did. As you can see in the picture, my umbrella is held together with duct tape and I'll keep it that way.
