The Media Is Just Too Darn Suggestive These Days
2006-11-02 03:36:03 With all this business about girls dressing like tramps and articles stating that 140 incidents of sexual behavior occur on prime-time network television each week I am starting to worry that the media might be a tad over the top. Sure, you will automatically dismiss that kind of talk as an aging guy romancing the days of his youth. I usually think that also. I know we had suggestive TV when I More About: Media , The Media , Just , Days , These
Do I Look Like A Movie Star To You?
2006-10-31 20:18:00 Sure, that celebrity recognition thing told me I looked like Jackie Chan, the Quantum Leap guy and the creepy rock star with a pig fixation* all in one outrageously sexy package, but I don't believe any of that. They only keep 4,000 pictures in their database and none of them are ugly.What really fries my synapses is when people confuse me for someone incredibly offensive to anyone over the age More About: Movie , Star , Like , Look
New York City Declares War On Good Food
2006-10-30 01:34:00 It looks like the bibs are coming off in New York City. The thing that advocates of good food have long feared is about to happen; New York City will be the first to ban trans fatty acids. Know why McDonald's fries tasted better when you were a kid? Trans fatty acids - and a lot of salt. Do they taste as good today? Of course not. The only people who think they taste just as good today More About: Food , War
How To Be A Real Man
2006-10-30 00:55:00 I respect people who do the Iron Man thing. It's not easy to spend a day swimming 2.4 miles, then biking 112 miles and finishing off with a 26.2 mile marathon run. I read about Dick Hoyt and probably wouldn't have noticed the Iron Man part except I saw he is 65. That's not trivial at any age, much less 65. Then I saw that he is 65 and does this whole thing carrying his 44-year-old disabled More About: How To , Real
Science Has Bad News For Goth Chicks - Vampires May Not Be R
2006-10-26 09:51:03 Groundbreaking - and heartwarmingly unessential - research done by University of Central Florida physics professor Costas Efthimiou has attempted to confirm what a generation of suicide girls has always feared - that vampires do not exist. His reasoning? On Jan 1, 1600, the human population was just over 530 million people. If one vampire existed on that day and bit one person per month, and More About: Science , News , Bad News , Chick , Vampire

Your Jedi Mind-Trick Moment For September 12th
2006-09-12 22:06:02 Michael Witig and his wife were out barbecuing when they saw something streaking through the sky. They turned on their camera and filmed it as fire and smoke billowed behind the mystery object. Not to worry, said the FAA. It was a just jet that was leaving a contrail behind it and the sun was at just the right angle to reflect off the jet and create the illusion of smoke and fire.

Remastered "Star Trek" - Set Phasers For Fun
2006-09-08 03:33:03 I know The Next Generation had its day in the sun but anyone - and I will brook no argument on this matter - who contends that the original is not the greatest sci-fi series of all time instantly loses their nerd cred around here. So if you are a TNG nerd - no, wait, if you can name more than three characters on any one of the later spin-offs - here is your chance for redemption.

Showing Science The Love
2006-09-06 03:24:01 The folks at Mo Comedy wax philosophical about the ongoing Geeks, Nerds, Dorks and Herbs confusion/hysteria ... but more importantly they lump us in with Bill Gates and extol our scientific prowess with these words: Overlooked nerd blogs: Because Scientists are Funnier than You Are Indeed, we ARE overlooked.

Science Gets You More Sex - Again
2006-09-02 02:57:06 It looked like a close one for the credibility of science this past week. First, we had the International Astronomical Union acting like a bunch of retarded cats and adding 3 new planets but then demoting poor Pluto. This made scientists sad but we persevered by heading to the local pharmacy, because Cheez-Doodles are on sale there. While there, a group of girls approached.

Moon Landing Footage "Missing", Replaced With Episode Of Fut
2006-08-18 20:06:03 Almost any kid today can spot bad CGI a mile away. Have a kid watch Raiders Of The Lost Ark, for example and, when that fighter plane crashes into the tunnel, kids will start giggling because it looks so fake to them.How is this possible? Eyes are trained by experience like anything else and special effects are a lot better today. This is why NASA now has to pretend they lost the footage from the original moon landing. There are two things that all scientists know: first is that Adolf Hitler was an avatar of Vishnu and is even now communing with Hyperborean gods in an underground Antarctic base from which he will lead a fleet of UFOs to establish the Fourth Reich; and second is that the moon landings never really happened.Sure, they showed stuff on TV but NASA had an excuse for the odd visual quality even then - their equipment was not "compatible" with the TV technology of the day, they said, so the original transmissions had to be displayed on a monitor and reshot by a TV came...

The New James Bond Is A Wuss - But He'll Get Naked
2006-03-05 22:21:00 The New James Bond Is A Wuss - But He'll Get Naked Daniel Craig has been under fire from moment one. Not many people have thought he would be good in the role - except the daughter of the guy who built the franchise. We've already established that English chicks are nuts and having a girl pick the next James Bond is proof of it. So he's blonde and that isn't good. But whatever.
