Living with Balls will be taking a short hiatus. I will be unable to post new content for the next two weeks. Don’t worry. I will return with plenty of fresh, knee-slapping content later this month.

In the meantime, if you need your LWB fix, I suggest going through the archives (which can be found on the right-hand side) and reading some of my older posts. Some of my best stuff was written very early when only my wife was reading this blog.

If you’re too lazy to do that, then check out the Best of LWB Section, which features the most popular posts from the past year.

It’s time for the June 2010 edition of Comment of the Month. As always, the Comment of the Month Award winner goes to the person who leaves the funniest comment from the past month. As an added bonus, if the winner has a blog or a web site, he/ she will get a some free publicity.

This month’s winner is Gary who commented on the story Google Sends More Crazy Readers to LWB.

After I revealed a number of disturbing search terms that found this site, Gary added this comment…. (more…)

OK. So I’m not really changing it. I’m just going to add to it.  From now on, instead of being known as John S., I will be referred to as Johnny Sacks.  There are a few reasons for this…

First off, one of my regrets when starting this blog was not coming up with a cool alias.  So I figured it’s better late than never.

Also, I think having a full name may be good for the branding of this blog. Should this blog ever become really popular, (which is unlikely) I think it will be good to have a full name associated with it.  Plus Sacks seems like an appropriate name for a blog about balls.

Here at LWB, I like to encourage comments.  Each month, one lucky reader is awarded the Comment of the Month award.  As an added bonus, if this reader has a web site or blog attached to his/ her comment then I will give them a free plug for their web site.

April 2010 marks the first repeat winner in the short history of this feature.  I was all set to declare October 2009 champ, Uncle Billy, the winner after his comment on the Slomin’s Shield story. However, on the final day of April, last month’s winner, Mr. Cleavage, came through and took the title for the second straight month.

Congrats to Mr. Cleavage once again. Check out his comment below from the post Bullshit Job Interview Questions and Answers. (more…)

So after a long debate, I have decided that I will no longer be doing the Celebrity Tweet of the Week feature.  It doesn’t really fall into the niche of this blog and fails to generate many pageviews.  But mainly, I just hate doing it.  My twitter feed is clogged up with all sorts of celebrities I have no desire to follow.  The task of trying to find funny tweets has also grown tiresome. 

So I’ve decided to put an end to it. UNLESS there is a huge outcry for it in the comment section.  So if you truly enjoy this feature, let me know about it and if several people want me to keep it, I’ll consider it.

There are some other alternatives as well such as: (more…)

Here at LWB, I like to encourage comments. Each month I award one lucky reader with the Comment of the Month award.  This month, for the first time in LWB history, I will be naming co-winners.  These two comments were so good that I just couldn’t pick a winner.

The first comes from “Mr. Cleavage” from the post T*ts or Ass? The Great Debate (more…)

Here at LWB, I like to encourage comments.  Each month I award one lucky person with the Comment of the Month Award.  This month’s winner is Dr. Faust for his comment on Making the Winter Olympics Interesting.

I created a fantasy Olympic team and went head-to-head against Kosmo from the Casual Observer.  Here’s what Dr. Faust had to say… (more…)

It’s been a few weeks since I last did Celebrity Tweet of the Week, the twitter contest that judges the best celebrity tweets. I’ve noticed if I wait a couple weeks in between posts, I find some really quality tweets.  This week is no different.  These three tweets were all really good and it was tough to differentiate third place from first place.
