This gift seems a little weird, even for my family. I get that someone else claimed multi-colored eggs and chocolate bunnies to celebrate their holiday, but did we have to go this far? Reminds me of this bad idea.

Fun and educational, our adorable Passover Ten Plagues Finger Puppets set is a great way to liven […]

Wow. I loved this ‘commercial.’ I used to sit in my office, back during the first DotCom boom, play this and laugh my ass off. I’m pretty sure the first time this was shared with me it was in the nearly lost .AU format. Almost as rare as leaded gas?

I had never heard this! I’m doing a quick troll of Wikipedia to see if I can find anything — HOWEVER reading a quick blurb about a new series in production for the Smithsonian Channel entitiled True Story suggests the character is based on a real person.
The new series will explore the real-life history […]

I actually like the lesson this girl is learning: no matter how much good you do, if you break the rules — you gots to pay!
Seems the young girl was on the bus when calamity struck and she leapt to action…
Marina High School student Amanda Rouse was on a bus with 40 elementary school students […]

Seems Gibson, maker of fine guitars, feels Activision is infringing a patent it holds around guitar simulations.
It seems, however, that Gibson isn’t at all satisfied with the arrangement it has with Activision. Gibson has sent a notice to Activision declaring that the games publisher is infringing upon the guitar maker’s patent for a concept similar […]

KICK ASS! Doug Sarine and Kent Nichols, of Ask a Ninja fame, are looking to remake ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES. This movie totally screwed up my childhood.
“‘Attack of the Killer Tomatoes!’ is the masterwork of a generation,” Nichols said. “We can only aspire to recapture that magic.”

I was flying from SFO to JFK on United and the flight attendant handed me this crazy portable MP3 video player. As I flipped past the incredibly lame titles they were providing it was as if sunlight hit the headpiece on the staff of Ra. What did I see?
TOP GEAR: POLAR EDITION

Holy crap, […]

>As Joel wrote earlier this month, there is a hops shortage on. King5.com, a news outlet in the Seattle area, is reporting that the hops and a malted barley shortage are going to force beer prices up!
At Red Hook Brewery in Woodinville, spokespeople say their production costs have gone way up. And they aren’t alone […]

I grew up in Santa Monica, California and the lovely, treasured, kinda badly moldy smelling Arcade on the Pier looks awfully like the building advertised as a Bubba Gump’s.
Sad. Maybe its not the Arcade, but it was close by.

“If I proposed such a design, our company would never approve it,” said one of the engineers. “When it comes to Japanese PC manufacturers, their manufacturing plants will complain or add their own technical efforts to lower cost, if a proposed structural design was insufficient. The MacBook Air gives me an impression that its manufacturing […]

Mein Gott! It seems smoking is now forbidden in Germany. Initially I thought the Bavarians would reject such laws in favor of tradition, but no! Even the festival tents will be Rauchenfrei.
Smoking in fest tents will still be allowed in Rheinland-Pfalz, whereas in Bavaria it won’t, although most fest tents can be found at the […]

I loved Gears of War. Gears was the safety blanket that made losing Halo and the Master Chief a little less harsh — I can hardly wait to chain-saw me some 13 year old multi-play dweebage. Plus the lighting/music effects in the GoW adventure were actually creepy!
The effectiveness of this tried and trusted console […]
