Look, Mom, It’s A Fraggle

2 07 2008

Best children’s show from my childhood.





Walk Down Memory Lane

29 06 2008

I worked at a movie rental store in high school. It was a place called Moviestars, a mini-”Blockbuster,” before Blockbuster became Blockbuster. The Onion takes me back to my teens with this video.





Bye Bye Bill. I Still Hate You For Vista

28 06 2008

Bill Gates spent his final day at Microsoft. Bill, thanks for the XBox, but I still hate you for Vista.





Pretending To Care

28 06 2008

I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to talk politics with people this election year. Thankfully, The Onion gives me some strategies.





Fox To Showcase Episode Streaming

27 04 2008

Because streaming TV shows have become the top driver of traffic to the Fox Web site, the network is revamping how it presents content on its site. No more digging!





I Admit It … I Like GTA

27 04 2008

I bought this game. I’m about 75 complete, but have grown tired of sniping crooks and wrecking my car. I have it if someone wants to borrow it. Hint: Don’t play multiplayer. Those 14-year-old kids, who I know are smoking marijuana on the other end because I hear them say “Lemme take this bong hit real quick” through my XBox360 headphones, are ruthless.

ABC News anchor Bob Woodruff is thinking green. Woodruff will anchor a weekly series for the new Planet Green channel. The program, premiering in July, will be an eco-newscast focusing on subjects ranging from climate impact to political debate. Planet Green launches on June 4.





Danica Patrick Wins One

20 04 2008

Finally!

I’m an IndyCar fan due largely to my dad. It’s nice to see Danica Patrick get her first win.





Say What?

20 04 2008

Good story in the NY Times about something we’ve all suspected for a while. The military analysts who got more face time on the news than actual journalists during the Iraq invasion and aftermath were, shockingly, working in cooperation with the Pentagon.





Sweetest You Tube Video EVER

19 04 2008

So, there was this lion that was raised by two gents from Britain. He grew too big and they decided to release him into the wild. And then, the reunion.





Bridge Collapse Redux

18 04 2008

I’m beginning to think that I’m bad luck. I was only 15 miles away from the Interstate 40 bridge when it collapsed in Webber’s Falls, Oklahoma, and I was three miles away when the Interstate 35W bridge collapsed in Minneapolis. Coincidence? Not sure. Regardless, here are some pics I snapped of the I-35 collapse.

“I’m A Man … I’m 40″

28 09 2007

I don’t really like the Oklahoman either, but can you really claim that you are holding true to ametuer athletics when you accepted $165M from T Boone. Just saying. I’m happy the university took the money, but I don’t know that OkState should go around preaching about the virtues of amatuer athletics when their pocket is bulging from some non-amatuer cash.
