Reporter asks Michael Jordan the question everyone’s been waiting for him to be asked.

Paypal’s shady online discount codes. If you use online coupon codes, watch that video. If proven true, this coupon scam using the Honey app is going to end up in a big ‘ole lawsuit, I bet. The bigger the corporation, the worse it stinks these days.

Why eat more blueberries? Turns out they’re good for your eyes. I read about how some WWII pilots were tested due to their accuracy and the study found they ate lots of blueberries. Pretty cool, especially if you’re not a fan of carrots. Other foods on that list might surprise you too.
