“I have two grandchildren: Maggie is 11; Robert is 9,” Gingrich said at Cornerstone Church here. “I am convinced that if we do not decisively win the struggle over the nature of America, by the time they’re my age they will be in a secular atheist country, potentially one dominated by radical Islamists and with no understanding of what it once meant to be an...

Jesse Ventura Suing Homeland Security and the... →
“…the former Minnesota governor claims that airport full-body scans and pat-downs violate his Constitutional right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures…
Before November, 2010, Ventura had to go through a non-invasive hand-wand inspection when he set off the alarm. But since new security measures took effect last November, Ventura says he has been subject to...

Hamburgers in North Korea →
“Samtaesung (Food) and Cool Beverages calls their sandwiches “minced meat and bread” to avoid using the American word “hamburger”.”
Wow I’d hate to live in a country so petty they change the name of common foods as some kind of a snub against a country they’re having a disagreement with… I wonder if they serve freedom fries over there.

Good ole reaming by the Daily Show for the hypocrites that drag out the tragedy of 9/11 to support their causes, but callously deny efforts to help those actually affected by the event.

Gives some credibility to those conspiracy theories that the government purposely infected gay and black populations with HIV.

Art Book or Cook Book? →
Ikea’s (in Sweden) apparently have cook books in their kitchen areas that are absolutely gorgeous. I’d want one, I don’t even care if the recipes are crap.

'Ghost train' hunter killed by train →
Unfortunate and sad, yet oh so incredibly stupid. What’s even worse is the article almost seems to try and give credibility/glamorize the ghost story. Maybe next year someone will get killed looking for the ghost of the ghost hunter.

There’s a poker show I like watching late at night, but while the show is good fun, the commercials are depressing as hell. The constantly show 5 minute long commercials of kids dying of cancer or of animals that have been beaten and abused.
*cough cough* dying hurts but for $15 a month you can make it not hurt so much so I can have the strength to hug my mommy, or you can send it so this...

Being the geek I am I loved most of the music from those old SNES RPGs, and I’m beyond amused that they actually got sampled. If there are other examples...

Seems he would have been better off if he’d gone to jail for his crimes. Just sayin.

I was at the grocery store and the kid who was bagging for me grabbed a can of cambells soup as it came down the belt and proclaimed “My spoo, my spoon is too big!”
Not only do I love that he was enough of an internet nerd to say that, but that he caught himself saying it, must have thought ‘hey it might be weird and awkward to say something like that’, and then said it...

I’ve been hearing a lot about a book called Sex at Dawn. It basically takes the Evolutionary Psychology approach to sex, not something new, and gives it a socialist spin to the greed-gene’s capitalist spin. It also rails against the traditional religious views of sex, aka its bad and shameful. Given my psychological and anthropological educational backgrounds it hits at a crossroads...
I went out and played some tennis today, it was cut short by rain. When I got back I took off my shoes and socks and noticed my one sock and managed to get very dirty in one spot. Wondering what could be in my shoe that would get my sock so dirty, I peered inside and saw the light. Yes I had completely worn through my shoe and now there is a nice sized little hole where the ball of my foot...
Fresh Green Shrimp →
It’d certainly be a better alternative. Offer a safer food supply for people and produce less ecological impact on the environment caused by over shrimping. Of course that is if the people running them actual maintain quality at the levels described in the article.
I was talking to my dad, and a conversation about Tea Parties evolved. Anyways he knows a staunch conservative who went to one of the tea parties and was surprised it was almost completely old white guys. Further more the guy completely hates his bosses, who are also staunch conservatives. He thinks they’re greedy and phonies, which from what Ive heard of them is probably right. But its...
