The FBI is listening to you via mics in your cell phone

First, its Fox, so i instantly disregard them.  However this sounds like something that the US government is totally capable of.  However, i don’t think its the FBI, nor the CIA.  No, long [...]

Radar Magazine  has compilied a list of the 10 worst toys of all time.
My favorite on the list would have to be their Number 1 pick for the worst toy ever:
Lawn Darts, or Jarts:

A product of the 80’s Jarts were weighted spears that stuck in the ground where they landed.  According to the article, the [...]
