We got wondering over the weekend, is there a situation where you will only buy the name brand of something and absolutely never the generic?
JStew: It s funny, I m usually the guy that s barking in some corner about the fact that people blow their hard earned money on the name brand, when the generic is usually just as good. Sometimes though, it just isn t the case. For instance, I started getting the off-brand toothbrush heads for my electric toothbrush. Not a good idea. In the time it usually takes to go through one or two of the name brand ones, I went through a whole package of them from one of the big box stores. For that matter, same deal with the same box store s dental floss. Total garbage. And drumsticks... oh boy. I never, ever, ever buy the cheap ones of those. I go through twice as many in half the time. No bueno..

I've been known to stand over the sink and shame feed it straight into my face, right out of the bottle. Sometimes you just need a fix of that amber goodness.
For today s Throwback Thursday, we wondered if there was a day in your life you d happily go back in time and do all over again if you could?
JStew: It s a toss up for me. There are so many. If I narrowed it down to a few, it d go something like this, in no particular order. Christmas Eve 1986 when I got my first drumset. Every moment of that day is pretty much frozen into my mind. My first real, big gig. My high school cover band got to open for Glass Tiger (Remember those guys? Me neither, haha) in Canada. There were about 5000 people there, and it was an absolute blast. I played much bigger shows after that, but that was my first taste of being a rock star, not that I ever really was one. I d love to re-live my last day with my grandfather. Nothing special about it, it was just the last one. My wedding day would be another one. KStew still puts up with me after 15 years. And I d love to go back to my last day with my dad too. He was very ill, but he and I sat telling jokes right
