Nine-year-old foils $164,000 robbery. Makes me think Home Alone might not be so far fetched after all.

Oh why couldn’t I have been born later? Then I could have learned something truly useful in college, you know, like programming video games. While on topic, I’m waiting for this and that.

As much as some people make fun of the French (you know who you are), they’re certainly more healthy than the average American. But don’t they eat really fattening foods? This much is true, but they also eat much smaller quantities. Want to lose weight? Eat less. Makes sense. Similar topic, the French and their [...]

After what happened at 2002 World Championships (arrgh) it’s good to see this year’s Dream Team showing the strength of USA Basketball. Don’t let up guys, there still some work to be done. Chant with me, “U-S-A, U-S-A.”

While the global warming theory lacks evidence, its believers don’t lack for vigor. They’ve gone to great lengths to discredit anyone giving evidence that their theory may be flawed. The good news for us, is that we won’t all be consumed in a giant ball of fire 200 years from now, unless of course, North [...]

Remember your first computer? Mine was a Atari 800 that my brothers and I received as a Christmas gift. I was so into video games that I saved up $350 to get the 5 1/4 floppy drive because loading files from that bloody tape was brutal. Well, now you can relive all those fond memories [...]

70-year-old Louise Samford isn’t going to sit around and do nothing. Hands-on is what she’s all about. I’m thinking Home Depot might want to use her in one of their commercials.

If you were like me, too lazy to stay up late, you might be interested in the photos that the Hubble telescope took of Mars last week. Amazing stuff… especially since my childhood cartoons misled me into thinking it was completely fire and molten lava.

Holiday Inn is putting on a happy face about all the towels people have stolen over the years. In fact, they’ve designated tomorrow to be National Towel Amnesty Day. Shew. Now if only the state will look the other way regarding this sign I’ve got. [via Dead Parrot]

WebMD wants to promote the idea that happiness can be more readily found in Health & Family” rather than in Money. Well, seems straight-forward enough and honest people wouldn’t argue with it. What concerns me is the term “lasting” which, in this case, is only referring to the happiness experienced from Health & Family lasts [...]

A humorous look at 22 things about the Bible that drive the left crazy. No offense intended, so please feel free to fire back with zingers against the right. *grin*

Should scientists be allowed to say something is true, if it’s really only their best guess? A while back they said a kilometer-wide asteroid was going to strike Earth in 2014 and wreck all kinds of havoc. Now it looks more like a 1-in-2.2 million chance. Are these the same guys talking about global warming [...]

Always love these online tests. This time, an online quiz attempts to tell you how old you’ll be when you die. Sure, it’s a bit morbid, but I’m sure it’s not accurate because instead of a number, mine came up “Any Day Now.”

On the Web, “What’s New?” is circadian. You gotta keep up with the Jones. Word Spy helps you do just that. Do you know what a flash mob is?

The U.S. House of Representatives on Thursday approved a ban on “partial birth abortions,” bringing anti-abortion forces within easy reach of a long-sought victory.
Its a start of something positive in politics! Next… the Senate!
