Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  Each Monday we like to start your week off right with a little something to kick start the WTF Gland of your brain. Your WTF Gland, as I'm sure you all are aware, is part of the immune system. It helps protect us from the work week and specifically the bullshit that goes along with it. Consider this post your booster shot. Here we start off with pondering old games for kids, and how they used to be...well, a bit sadistic. If you think Grand Theft Auto is bad for the psyches of children, then check out this game: the commercial plays like it was directed by a young Eli Roth. Categorized as: Mental Sorbet

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.   How The Earth Was Made is back from the History Channel for Season 2 on DVD. Here's what they have to say for themselves: This season, HOW THE EARTH WAS MADE goes back in history – from 4.5 billion years ago to today – to investigate the origins of some of the most well-known locations and geological phenomena in the world. With rocks as their clues and volcanoes, ice sheets and colliding continents as their suspects, scientists launch a forensic investigation that will help viewers visualize how the Earth has evolved and formed over millions of years. Mt. Everest, Grand Canyon, Yosemite, Mt. St. Helens, Death Valley and Supervolcanoes are among the fascinating geological creations featured across 13 episodes of this innovative program.

Comments on this: none yet. Add your own.  Although Americans love their soccer, our interest in the sport pales in comparison to the fanaticism about non-American football that exists throughout the world. This fanaticism is rooted in pride, tradition, community and love of the sport. All of this has come together with a fever pitch with the FIFA World Cup, in South Africa, currently going on and lasting through July 11th. For the uninitiated (or for those who simply haven't been paying attention), basically there are qualifying tournaments for teams from around the world and the winners get into The World Cup competition. For The World Cup itself there are eight groups (Groups A-H) with four teams in each group. Thus a total of thirty-two teams, including the USA, went into competition for the World Cup. The first stage of the World Cup competition is the group stage where sixteen winners move onto a knockout head-to-head stage of competition. This culminates with a series of quarterfinals, semi-finals and then a massively hyped final. The winning team gets a shiny trophy and the undying respect of the world soccer/football community.

Comments on this: 2 so far. Add your own. There are a lot of things out there you can buy. We try to give you the information you need to make an educated purchasing decision. Because we have no lives. If you find the info here to be of use, do us a favor and purchase stuff from Amazon through us. Especially if you were going to buy the stuff anyway. That gives us kickbacks, which help pay for things. Like the server. And coffee. And therapy. Thanks.

Comments on this: 2 so far. Add your own. The video basically explains all--and other videos will expand upon this: but our visit to the Creation Museum was actually rather pleasant. At times...perplexing...but pleasant all the same. The people there were all very nice and not pushy in any way whatsoever, they only respectfully asked that we not film any of the video presentations. So we didn't. But I did make a new friend, recorded our meeting, and also delivered a message to him that is near and dear to my heart. I hope you find the experience as emotionally moving as I did.
