Quiznos Goodness Giveaway
You guys know I have ranted and raved about Quiznos and their sandwiches. I used to be a Chicken Carbonara kinda guy but then I fell in love with the Prime Rib sub. The thing that always made me feel super awesome in my tummy when I chomped on this sandwich (besides the meat) is the peppercorn sauce. I really have to limit my intake on these if I want to stay in the good graces of my wife. The thing that makes this harder is that Quiznos has had some new additions to their menu.
Now they have birthed the new Prime Rib on Garlic Bread, Prime Rib & Blue and Chipotle Prime Rib subs that bring Quiznos’ tally of prime rib sandwiches to a whopping eight. These new prime ribs subs will be permanent menu additions in the Quiznos line of signature subs, alongside current Quiznos prime rib favorites: Prime Rib Mushroom & Swiss, Prime Rib & Peppercorn, Double Cheese Cheesesteak, Steakhouse Prime Rib Dip and Bourbon Grille Steak. Oh mylanta!
Now if you are like me and are trying to stay healthy, trim , fit, and in the good graces of your spouse you may want to eat a little bit lighter fare. The menu choices that are under 500 calories are probably the way to go. They have around twenty subs that are under 500 calories!
In addition to the prime rib subs, Quiznos also introduced:
- 2 new under 500 calorie subs: Chicken Cordon Bleu and Caprese
- Ultimate Turkey Club
- 3 new desserts: Apple Cobbler, Dark Chocolate Bar, Chocolate Fudge Brownie
Giveaway
One (1) winner will receive a $15 Quiznos gift card so you can indulge!
How to Enter
Tell me your fav sub!

Mars Needs Mars Giveaway
A new movie that is coming out is peaking my interest more and more. Mars Needs Moms is a new movie that comes out on March 11th from Walt Disney Studios. I hope to check this movie out in the next couple of weeks and fill you guys in on what I thought.
Take out the trash, eat your broccoli—who needs moms, anyway? Nine-year-old Milo (Seth Green) finds out just how much he needs his mom (Joan Cusack) when she’s nabbed by Martians who plan to steal her mom-ness for their own young. Produced by the team behind “Disney’s A Christmas Carol” and “The Polar Express,” “Mars Needs Moms” showcases Milo’s quest to save his mom—a wild adventure in Disney Digital 3D™ and IMAX® 3D that involves stowing away on a spaceship, navigating an elaborate, multi-level planet and taking on the alien nation and their leader (Mindy Sterling). With the help of a tech-savvy, underground earthman named Gribble (Dan Fogler) and a rebel Martian girl called Ki (Elisabeth Harnois), Milo just might find his way back to his mom—in more ways than one.
Giveaway
One (1) winner will receive a Mars Needs Moms Gift Pack that includes a Mars Needs Moms Adult Size T-Shirt, Mars Needs Moms Youth Size T-Shirt and Moms Needs Mars Temporary Tattoos (3-pack)
How to Enter
Tell me if you could go to Mars…would you?

The New and Improved Lands’ End Polo Review and Giveaway
I like clothes. They cover me instead of being naked. For this reason clothes are important to me. Even more importantly I like great looking and great fitting clothes. So, in my efforts to find the best of both worlds in clothing the new and improved Lands’ End Polo was brought to my attention. This shirt is nice. It is a heavier shirt than some of those wussy-boy ones that I have been seeing in the last few years. You know the ones that when you need your size you have to go up two sizes so it doesn’t stick to you like casing on a sausage. I don’t like the “athletic fit”. This shirt fits like it should. Just like a classic, yet redesigned, polo shirt.
This classic wardrobe staple has been redesigned to feature:
- Jersey-taped seams on the neck and shoulders add comfort
- Fabric that is heftier and softer than ever before
- No-curl collar that lies flat wash after wash
Ryan’s Rating: 8 out of 10!!
Pros: Nice fit, no tags, and my wife thinks I look good in it.
Cons: I don’t have enough to wear one every day.
Giveaway
Three (3) winners will win a New and Improved Lands’ End Polo!
How to Enter
Tell me who this shirt would be for.

The Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910
Everything seems to be in HD these days. Whether it’s in the theater, on the TV, and now on our phones…HD is the way to go. Recently I wanted to figure out what would work for me and what I wanted to do for my HD video needs. Since my wife Crystal has been traveling more and more I wanted to find one way for us to stay in touch not only in audio form but in video form too. Also, I was looking into having video to go along with my podcast so that I can interact with my audience better. After searching a bit Logitech sent me over their HD Pro Webcam C910.
The HD Pro Webcam C910 is a sleek looking little number. It boasts high definition video up to 1080p, a wide-angle lens and autofocus for picture quality that’s simply amazing. Video chat, blog, stream and upload to Facebook in just one click. The term ‘webcam’ doesn’t quite do it justice. Logitech Fluid Crystal Technology gives you smooth, fluid video. Crystal clear images. Rich colors. It’s all stuffed in here like a Thanksgiving turkey…except without salmonella.
Here is what my webcam on my laptop looks like. It was so bad the audio doesn’t even sync up with the video.
Here is what it looks like once I installed the Logitech HD Pro Webcam C910. This quality is nice twice.
One sweet feature that we all loved to sit around and just play with was the mask and avatar features. You can have fun with effects like Video Masks you can make from any photo—transform your video image into animals, celebrities or even your family pet. My favorite mask was the one I did were I put my eyes and mouth onto a picture of Batman. I must have talked to the kids with that thing for at least ten minutes straight. I also liked using the avatar function that they have where you can turn yourself into all sorts of things like a dinosaur, an alien, and alley cat, or even a comical shark.
- Full HD 1080p video recording
- Fluid HD 720p video calls in 16:9 widescreen
- Precision Carl Zeiss optics and autofocus for razor-sharp video and brilliant 10MP photos
- Noise-cancelling dual mics for HD-quality stereo audio—a first for HD webcams
- Convenient cable management system reduces clutter
- 1-click video upload to Facebook and YouTube
- Easy HD calling on included Logitech Vid HD and most major IM services
Ryan’s Rating: 9 out of 10!!
Pros: Very sleek and such great video quality.
Cons: Just make sure you don’t run it on an older system or it may get a little choppy.

Super Hero Squad Vol 3 Giveaway
The Super Hero Squad Show. This show is a riot. My kids do not sit down too often and actually watch tv without running off and getting into something else. I mean really. I am sitting here right now trying to write this post and I am so distracted in what is going on with this show. I think one cool thing is my 7 year old daughter loves this show. The comedy relief is what drives her stomach muscles to get a workout on every showing.
The Super Hero Squad Show: Quest For The Infinity Sword is Volume 3 is a must! Watch as Iron Man, Wolverine, the Hulk, the Silver Surfer, Thor, the Falcon and their friends faithfully — and hysterically — protect Super Hero City from the wild, weird and even wacky villainy of VillainVille’s most infamous baddies, led by the sinister Dr. Doom! Volume 3 features the final 13 episodes from Season One plus all-new bonus features!
Ryan’s Rating: 8 out of 10!!
Pros: Kids love it, iconic characters, and the X-men were in this volume!
Cons: Still this dang theme song will get so stuck in your head…and your kids.
Giveaway
One (1) winer will win a copy of Super Hero Squad Volume 3!

Dremel Multi-Max Review
Since we are getting ready to get our house in order to put on the market my honey-do list has gotten even larger. There has been one thing that has needed to be done for years but I am not the most knowledgeable person when it comes to home repairs. I have needed to replace a broken door in the house but really didn’t know what all went in to even getting ready to hang the door. I could not for the life of me figure out how to chisel out the notches where the door latches rest. Thanks to the people over at Dremel that actually came to the rescue and made me look quite competent to my family with the Dremel Cordless Multi-Max.

The tool also boasts sleek ergonomics, a handy Quick Fit accessory change system and an attractive price tag (SRP: $149.99).

Where’s Walrus Giveaway
I got this new book the other day called Where’s Walrus and was immediately confused why there weren’t any words in it. Really. I was seriously puzzled. I guess in a picture book you don’t really need words though. The kiddos loved this book and they loved it because we could create a different story just about every time we read it. We could tell the story from the Walrus’s point of view, the zoo keeper’s point of view, or even all of the people that get involved with the Walrus and pretend to see it from their point of view.
About the book
Bored with life at the zoo, an adventurous walrus escapes to the outside world. With the zookeeper in hot pursuit, Walrus cleverly tries on all sorts of hats to disguise himself. Will a yellow hardhat point to a new life as a construction worker? Or will a red swimming cap reveal his true talents? Follow the happy-go-lucky runaway as he hides amongst firefighters, businessmen, and even high-stepping dancers in this delightful wordless picture book.
About the author
Stephen Savage is the illustrator of the acclaimed New York Times bestselling picture book Polar Bear Night. His editorial illustrations have appeared in dozens of major newspapers and magazines including the New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, The Atlantic Monthly, The New Republic and The Wall Street Journal. When Stephen is not on the run, he lives in Brooklyn, New York, with his wife and daughter.
Giveaway
Three (3) winners will receive a copy of Where’s Walrus!
How to Enter
Tell me your favorite animal at the zoo.
