While
It’s been a while, and a while it will always be. Never once in my life have i stayed committed to something that was important to me. I have always looked at something and said “I wish i could do that” and when i get halfway there, I’m done. Maybe it’s the idea that I will change my mind about how I want to look at my future. I must stay focused on what others see...

Avengers Gag Reel
“Star Trek? Is this Star Trek?”
I’ll be honest, I often judge movies based on the quality of the gag reel. This one is obviously excellent. .agape.

LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!!
Well, it’s that time of year - no, not Christmas in July - the summer Olympics are once again upon us. Most of us will be talking about sporting events and games that we usually don’t converse about on a daily basis. It’s not everyday that I get fired up about our national Hand Ball team. The one line that I love to hear when the Olympics start is; “It is just great to...
Me recommending tv shows
Action: Community
Romance: Community
Drama: Community
Comedy: Community
Thriller: Community
Sci-fi: Community
Mystery: Community
A lot of my friends ask me what shows I would recommend if they were to get Hulu. I think this is a good sum of things.

One can only be so lucky to go fishing on their day off. I hope this happens to me next time I go out for a cast!

...And His Name Was Abraham (Review or Better Yet...
As a child I wasn’t discouraged to read on my free time, but my lack of enthusiasm that was my dyslexia didn’t help. Since my graduation from mandatory reading, I have found it useful and interesting. I recently read “Abraham Lincoln; Vampire Hunter”, which I read for many reasons, but the more interesting, and less mediocre excuse for a history major like myself, is...

It’s comforting to know that even though someone has passed away, we keep a piece of their soul alive in the words they have written.

The subject of this photo -along with the majority of his other works- is Kyle Thompson, a 20-year-old amateur photographer with a passion, a keen eye and a fantastic imagination. His surreal photography is thoughtful, eye-catching, and unique in the sense that Kyle can easily make a typically macabre scene look suprisingly elegant. Choosing forests and abondoned buildings as his favorite type of...

1777
Today marks National Flag day In the United States. Now I am not one for over dramatic patriotism, unless it’s National Soccer or the Olympics, but this is one of the few times I show my nation’s colors and a sporting event is not the main focus. June 14 is the day we celebrate the adoption of the red and white strips with the stars on the cloth in 1777 by the Second Continental...

Prometheus; A Review
What’s up, brochachos!!! So, last week I saw the much anticipated Prometheus- brought to you by Ridley Scott and was wonderfully surprised! It wasn’t a dumb all-flash-no-story film, there were many religious allusions and dark themes as the story line juxtaposed creation and destruction of life. The effects were top-notch and Michael Fassbender stole the show as Weyland Android David....

YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE!!! →
David McCullough Jr., an English teacher at a Wellesley High School in Massachusetts, never thought that his “You’re Not Special” speech would reach the ears of the masses other then his intended audience; Wellesley High’s 2012 graduating class. McCullough said what we were all thinking but were to scared to say; how can a nation of “chosen one’s”,...

It seems that Queen Elizabeth really does want everyone thinking about her. Great Britain is celebrating the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee and how else do you party like it’s 2012? Oh, I know! Let’s rename the iconic Big Ben tower and it’s clock that is the centerfold of Parliament, after the Queen. Now, when you visit our cousins across the pond, you will feast your eyes on...

Zuckenomics
Facebook Bankers Secretly Cut Facebook’s Revenue Estimates in the Middle of IPO Roadshow I think it would be quite an understatement to say that this is some bull. All that I picture while reading this is Zuckerberg sitting in his “modest” home on his “modest” 24k gold throne, smiling his shit-eating smile, knowing full-well that once again, he’s gotten away...

Leap Motion Hands-Free Control (For Computers!) →
With the innovation of Microsoft’s “Kinect”, the realm of possibilities seems endless. Though the Kinect system was ground breaking, the controls were somewhat primitive. Before it’s release, it was stated that finger recognition was one of many features provided by the system, but that seemed too big of a task for Microsoft. Well, it seems a start-up company called...

MCA, a music man, a human, a visionary. RIP →
FIRST AND FOREMOST, PLEASE CHECK THE LINK. ^^^
MCA was a great human being, he lived a life of greatness. He transcended racial boundaries in an opposite way; him and the Beastie Boys jumped into a heavily black run industry as a group of white punk kids from NY. Aside from this, MCA (Adam Yauch) was a practicing Buddhist. He felt that there was more to this world than hatred. Yauch was a lover...

Pepsi: A Bit Morbid →
Seeing the huge success of zombies lately, Pepsi has decided to revamp their image and use the deceased King of Pop, Michael Jackson, for a new global marketing push. The King of Pop’s image and music will be used in television ads and branded on Pepsi cans. As an added bonus, some products will have limited edition remixes of Mj’s famous songs on them. This marketing...

Blank Page
Writer’s block. What step should I take from here? I know the things that are on my mind, but I’m just to scared for the world to see them. I can’t think, I can’t write, all I can do is look at the blank page. I’ve done nothing wrong, said nothing wrong, done nothing but stand there and do nothing. Maybe if I just take some courage and write what I will on one page,...

I don’t know how I didn’t hear about these things before, but if I had between $700 to $800 bucks lying around I would totally buy one. The device makes the real motions and sounds that any ordinary typewriter would, minus the putting in the paper and the USB connection. You can also buy a converter kit for around $80 bucks that allows you to make any manual typewriter into a...

This is a crucial match when pertaining to who will lift the Premier League title this May. If you have the day off or are able to catch the match, you should do so. It should be one hell of a night!
