- Ragu has a new series of interesting commercials featuring kids. Yes, the spaghetti sauce company has some interesting and funny commercials. For instance one deals with one of the grossest yet loving feelings of when a mother cleans off our face with her spit, and another focuses on the importance of knocking before entering. Check them out here. [Thank you, Ms Watson!]

- I read a “Mad Men” article in which Christina Hendricks and Matthew Weiner was being interviewed and I thought it made some interesting points that I wanted to let WifeGeeding know about. I’m not sure if she knew the actress that plays Joan is named Christina Hendricks, so before I started to tell the story I asked if she knew who Christina Hendricks was.

Randy will be with us forever and ever. Amen.
