Last night was the Manhattanhenge, the twice yearly event when the setting sun aligns perfectly with the cross streets of Manhattan.  It’s a unique event that is spectacular if you can catch it on the right block.
We did alot of walking from 42nd, to 34th Sts, and 3rd Ave. to 8th Ave.  Ideally you want [...]

The Olympics are over, man, was that a good 17 days.  The Winter Olympics are really the one sport I love to watch. Every sport in it.  I watched almost every event.  Yes that includes curling, which I watched every (women’s) match.  There were some good ones, and some sad ones, but the Gold Medal [...]

Its time again for the best stumbles in the history of the internet.  These fine stumbled pictures are up there for humor, love, wrongness, Nazi, and cute.  Only one can take home the gold, and end the post.  That picture has the responsibility to hold off the other stumbles until i write the next one, [...]

I address you this afternoon not as a ruler of this blog, not as the member of the elite, but as a citizen of humanity.  We are faced with the very gravest of challenges, The Ancient Greeks called this time the Olympiad, the challenge of challenges.  For the first time in the history of the [...]

I’m not sure if the video is bad, or the song, but either way, this is entertaining!

And it’s supposed to be that way.  Just watch that whole video, and if you aren’t laughing like crazy, you aren’t a real human.
Also, to make it even better, watch it on YooouuuTuuube.com, where I found it, it’s waaayyy [...]

Not the R.E.M. song, although that is a good one.  I’m talking about the actual Apollo 11 landing.  Back in the 1960’s there was a guy who used his own home made equipment to listen in to transmissions coming from the astronauts on the surface of the moon.  CRAZY!
Using an antenna that he had to [...]

It’s the start of the new season of TV.  That means CSI.  And Fringe.  Unfortunately Fox decided to be fucking retarted, and air Fringe opposite CSI, which means that there’s a good chance that it will be canceled by the end of the season due to lack of viewers.  Oh Fox, how you never learn, [...]

Or Operation Dandelion, as the author likes to describe it.  Dandelions for those who don’t know are one of the most annoyingly satisfying weeds ever.
Anyway, this guy’s lawn looked like this:

And he got a notice on his door from the town/neighborhood/someone official:

Honestly, that yard doesn’t look that bad, I’ve seen worse, but hey, some towns [...]

Ever since I can remember wanting a Cell phone, I can remember wanting a Sat phone more.  For those that don’t know a sat phone is short for satellite phone.  Most of the time, these phones have recption all over the world, (except indoors, or underground) .  Something about that just strikes me as cool.  [...]

Well the answer to the question of what do the strange unexplained Google Doodles mean has finally been given by Google themselves.  Turns out it was all a celebration of H.G. Well’s birthday, which is today.  He is 143 years old.  That’s old, older the Hitler. And he wrote one of my favorite sci-fi [...]

Exactly 64 years ago the atomic age was officially entered.
With the bombing of Hiroshima by the United States in World War II, the face of the world was changed, both figuratively, and literally, since then we remain the only nation to use an Atomic bomb on another.
Alot of people look at Truman’s decision to drop [...]
