Read This to Ruin Your Day Fancy Tickling, Funny, Learning, Life | (0)
Well, the word "preference" can be interpreted in a lot of ways.......right? And, in case you're wondering, no, I didn't make this myself just to humiliate you; it is from our good friends over at the penis-size debate forum. By all means go over there and argue your case, but here's a little taste of what you'll be getting yourself into: In the last few years penis size has become one of the most talked about topics on the web. The main questions on everybody's mind are "Is penis size important to women?" and "How do I compare?" Many men ...

Watch Discovery of Aliens Live! Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Life | (1)
This internet thing is really something... Not only is NASA,the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, going to attempt to put another lander on Mars, but this time their doing it live on the Internet for all to see. According to Michael Learmonth of Silicon Valley Insider, starting at 6 PM EST today [this was posted on May 25th], people can head to NASA’s website, or Second Life, to watch as NASA attempts to put the Phoenix Mars Lander down on solid ground. I only say “attempts” as missions to Mars have had a checkered past over the years, but the twin rovers ...

Scarily Accurate Visual Representation of My Life Learning, Life, Pictures | (1)
Hope you enjoyed that, but, seeing as I stayed up all night not writing my paper, now I have to go get some coffee to wake myself up enough to drag my tired ass to the library to see if I have enough concentration to finish my last final of law school.....get it? (It's like the picture.) (It's also true.)

The "Night Lights" map was the first world map of the nighttime Earth, using data compiled by NASA and NOAA: (click on the picture for a much better look at it) More pictures of cities from space.

More on New York City and East Coast lights.

Sounds Like Andre is Back Audio, Hip-Hop, Hot Shit, Learning | (0)
Ok, so for a while there, especially after Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, there was a lot of talk about Big Boi being the superior MC in hip-hop's best group. Now don't get me wrong; Mr. Fat Sacks is one of the best rappers in the game. But Andre 3000 is one of the best of all time, as he's shown through every single one of Outkast's classics. Admittedly, though, it seemed like he was focusing his talents on other forms of entertainment. But just when it seemed like Dre's career had gone the way of depression-era concept albums, shitty Hollywood sequels and children's ...

Appreciating Pat Burrell Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Sporting | (2)
Definitely the first time I've ever seen those three words strung together - and by a Philly writer to boot. Already off to a great start Burrell has really been the glue so far holding this injury-plagued Phillies team together. As of right now Burrell ranks 1st in all of baseball in WPA/LI with a 0.98; his 0.98 is a full eighteen percent ahead of closest competitor Mark Reynolds. Burrell also ranks 1st in BRAA and REW, ahead of Joe Crede in both; in BRAA he is a full half-run ahead of Crede. Much of the talk surrounding the Phillies ...

Mario Theme Played with RC Car and Bottles Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Life, Videos | (0)
On this, the first day of Passover, I figured that I would share something that has nothing to do with Jews or whatever it is that Passover is about: an absurdly crazy video of a guy who plays the Mario Brothers song by driving a remote controlled car with a stick that hits bottles of different levels of liquid. Now I'm going to go have a piece of Matzah. Mario Theme Played with RC Car and Bottles - Watch more free videos

Why Smoking Is Bad Learning, Life, NYC, Videos | (3)
On a Friday evening in October of 1999, Nicholas White was working late on his job at the New York City office of Business Week when he decided to take a smoke break. So, around 11PM he rode the elevator down from the 43rd floor of the McGraw-Hill Building in Rockefeller Center. A few minutes later he took the elevator on his way back up to his office, but he never made it up there; instead, the elevator malfunctioned, and White remained trapped in the elevator alone for the next 41 hours, until he was finally rescued on Sunday afternoon. While ...

Six Reasons Why Baseball is the Best of All Games Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Sporting | (0)
By far my favorite, and one that I've always thought about, is this one: Finally, there is the factor of time, the use of which is a central part of any game. Baseball shares with tennis the idea that time never runs out, as it does in basketball and football and soccer. This means that there is always time for the losing side to make a comeback. The last of the ninth inning becomes one of the most potentially exciting parts of the game. And while the same sometimes happens in tennis also, it seems to happen less often. Cricket, much ...

Subtle Signs that the Future is Now Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Learning, Life, Videos | (1)
If you were asked 10 years ago what the world would be like in 2008, you might have suggested flying cars or at least the flying skateboard in Back to the Future II. Now that 2008 is here, we're still confined to shredding the streets with wheeled boards, and it may not feel like we are in the future quite yet. Well, sometimes you just don't stop to realize the little things (or maybe all the things on the internet). Since I realize everything, I present to you: the subtle signs that the future is now. 1. DOPE WARS IS ON ...
