My answer: Until the moment Luke reveals her family lineage to her, Leia has absolutely no idea she is even capable of using the Force. The memories she has of…
…George Bush will no longer be president. Just thought you might like to know.
Recently I read a novella that posed a really deep question: What would happen if physical property could be duplicated like an MP3 file? What if a poor society could…
That’s all. Just wanted to tell everyone to have a safe and happy new year. 2008 is shaping up to be the best year ever.
by Tony Long of Wired 1996: Carl Sagan dies. Calling Carl Sagan a scientist is a little like calling the Beatles a rock band. Sagan was certainly a scientist (an…
My cousin just sent this to me, and MAN is it cool! What’s even cooler is that his house is the one on the right. :o) httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u44TL0Wv_S8 httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erLUGpCwsxc httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkZmda5tK4k
Okay, so I’m closing in on the big 7.0 release, which will be the last one until I can find more time to work on it (or if some great…
Though the title of this version is about Beethoven, there were no songs added by him on this one. It’s called this because I recently discovered that the 74-minute CD…
Why You Can’t Get Your Hands on a Wii Annotated I have owned a Nintendo since 1985, and I’ve never owned an Xbox, a Sega, a PlayStation, or anything since…
Added: “Ocean Whispers” from Pirates of the Caribbean by Klaus Badelt – Just felt like it fit nicely and gave it a little more darkness without adding too much melody…
I know how this is going to make me look to some people, but I just stop reading certain emails when I realize it’s their attempt to convince me that…
Or, lets say that we are NOT the cause of global warming. Then that frees us of the burden of having to correct it, right? Wrong. Even if we're not the cause of it, it's happening anyway. So, doesn't it seem like a good idea to plan for the future?
I recently got into another discussion about global warming, and the person I was talking to said they weren’t convinced that humans were the cause of it. Though it’s just…
Dave Chappelle’s show was absolutely brilliant for the first couple seasons because he got to be open about humor with complete disregard for race. It allowed for some truly historic…
We buried our cat, Sasha, today. She was about five years old, independent as can be, and only had one kitten (Spot, who lives with Erin and me). I’ll spare…
I grew up watching television, just like everyone else. I’ve always thought of each channel in terms of its own personality or spirit, so to speak. When a station that…
I bought a slightly used 2000 Honda Civic in October of 2002, and at the time it only had 32,000 miles on it. I was increasingly aware of the coming…
My cousin, Steve Metze, asked me how one could make money selling virtual things. Well, the entire Second Life economy is a lot like the US economy, only it’s based…
I recently got in a discussion about Second Life (a virtual world in which you can live, work, and play) because I just got into it a couple weeks ago.…
All late night talk shows (aside from the Daily Show and the Colbert Report) are lame and practically worthless. They’re formulaic, unoriginal, and pander to the widest audience possible. Half…
In case you wondered if cops were all good people by nature, I’ve got some news for you: they’re just people like the rest of us. Watch this video of…
I used to have one of the Bluetooth earpieces, but that was when they first came out. I’ve never been that comfortable with it, and that was long before everyone…
Do you realize that we are mostly empty space? And when I say “mostly” I mean, almost entirely. Not just 75% or 90% or even 99%…we’re something like 99.99999999999999999% completely…
I grew up in a town of about 12,000. Everyone I knew had the same area code and the same prefix to their phone number. For anyone calling from, say,…
