“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.” – Oscar Wilder This kid Atticus Shaffer from the ABC show “The Middle” is probably way more articulate than half of the teachers at his school.

I was just asking myself the other day “WTH happened to Erykah Badu??”. I remember buying her single “On and On” back when buying singles existed. To my delight, she’s coming out with an album this week and the single “Window Seat” is pretty deep. I won’t dive into an explanation because I think it can be interpreted many ways, [...]

I was reading some news articles and came across a picture of the late Ferdinand Marcos, former Phillipines president, and I couldn’t help but admire his choice of coffin. This led me to google search some other cool coffins. Die in style. Pax.

Please don’t front like Sammie wasn’t killin it back in the day. The kid could sing, and his lyrics were pretty mature for his age.

So today i’ve been pummeled by false advertisements. Why can’t people just keep it real. My Apple MBP advertises 7hr of batt life, but they don’t tell you that in order to get that 7hr you have to pretty much turn your screen brightness to “off”. Even on one notch of brightness I get about 5+hrs. Then I look at my [...]

“Minute to Win It” is a new show on NBC that aires every Sunday at 7pm. The show consists of an array of challenges that players must complete in a matter of 60 minutes. Each level (there at 10 i think) increases in $$ and in difficulty. I personally think I would fail most of the level 2 and 3 [...]

Today, March 22nd, is recognized by the United Nations Water Group as “World Water Day”, this year’s theme being “Clean Water for a Healthy World”.

On my desk there’s a framed  quote that says: “The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man’s determination to always do his best” I couldn’t have said it better

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea’s state-run (and only) news agency, sporadically releases photos of reclusive 69-year-old leader Kim Jong-il as he makes “on-the-spot” guidance visits. Kim Jong-il, continuing a practice begun by his father, Kim Il-sung, makes these visits to factories and facilities throughout the country, purportedly to offer his personal guidance. Followed by army officers, security [...]

I won’t say anything. Just watch the clip.

Hindu devotees and others enthusiastically drop their inhibitions, and chase each other in temples and through the streets, playfully splashing colorful paint, powder and water on each [...]

Why????? I thought this whole Twilight thing passed on. This means I have to walk around for another year wondering why every third adolescent in the mall thinks it’s cool to look like a vampire, and why I’m supposed to know what people mean when they refer to some random “Edward” guy. I thought this whole vampire thing had its [...]

It looks nice. Probably works great. But there is no room for the iPad in my daily routine. I have a smartphone, a laptop, a tv, and a car. Between those 4 I think i’m all machined-out. I thought about it and I think I have everything covered pretty well. Calls: cellphone, laptop (skype) Emails: cellphone, laptop Web: cellphone, laptop [...]

PPFA provides reproductive health and maternal and child health services. The organization’s status as the country’s leading provider of surgical abortions has put it in the forefront of national debate over the issue. Two new short videos produced by a pro life [...]

Kim, Lisa Raye, Angel Lola Luv, Trina (at Superbowl party in Miami)… This is the caliber of team you ladies should be assembling for a night out on the town. No weak links. Guys hate when they call you to sit at the table and you bring along your ego-booster(s). Honestly we would ask you to leave them on the [...]
