Tiki Barber’s Revisionist History
Hindsight is 20-20, so I’ve been told, would someone please forward the memo to TiVi Barber.
Mr. Barber: You have done more than enough damage in the past twelve months to dig your own grave in the eyes of the Giants faithful twice over, so quit before you jeopardize the new career you sold your [...]

The spacecraft, Messenger, has beamed back images of Mercury, giving all the scientific community a closer look into this moon-like planet.

After 43 Years, Israel Finally Invites The Beatles
I came across an interesting article today regarding the Beatles. Apparently in 1965, as “Beatlemania” swept across the globe, the fledgling State of Israel did not permit them to play in their newly founded state. However, after 43 years, Israel is extending their apologies to the remaining Beatles, along with the relatives of [...]

Sleek, Sexy, and Eco-Friendly - The Chevy Volt
As last week came to a close, Greg Rineberg babeled about the need for society to drive small, fuel efficient cars. For the most part I fundamentally agree. Earlier at the office, while thumbing through a colleague’s issue of Men’s Journal I happened across a snippet that really piqued my interest. Behold, [...]

Who Will Be The Next U.S. President?
Only a month until the primaries and I am already suffocating from the political buzz in the air. Who will be the Democratic nominee and the Republican nominee? Is our country so upset with the George Bush administration that they are willing to just entirely turn to a Democrat out of spite or [...]

Unstoppable, Eli Manning Is
Football fans, I’m sure you have all seen this great commercial after one of Eli’s untimely interceptions this season. Like clockwork, fans were spoon fed this ironic advertisement after every boneheaded play.
Alas, all the moaning and speculation that resulted from one head-scratching mistake after another, has finally been put to bed. Eli, once [...]

Why I Think Everyone Should Buy Small Fuel Efficient Cars
Over the last few years with the obnoxious hike in gas prices, it seems as though many Americans are getting smart and shying away from purchasing large gas guzzling SUV’s. While the SUV/truck is always a nice second vehicle to own for a multitude of reasons, such as moving large items or for towing [...]

Solid State Theory: A Lesson in Bad Science
Rant Warning - Don’t Hate me Because I Suck
Well I am finally getting around to reading Stephen Hawking’s, A Brief History of Time. Yeah, it’s about 2 decades too late, I know. While I completely lack scientific know-how, I am taunted by an ever-growing curiosity of what makes our Universe tick. Sadly, I am [...]

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare it’s like crack
I’ll admit it: I’m addicted to online gaming. There’s something tremendously attractive and satisfying about digitally maiming or killing the twelve year old punk who is incessantly mocking you over the headset that I just can’t seem to get my fill. Despite the fact that I am typically being slaughtered by pre-teen video [...]
