Google gives a shout out to FLW by displaying “Fallingwater” and the Guggenheim Museum on its home page: While Jessie does not necessarily love museums, I can always get her excited about going to the Metropolitan Museum of Art by telling her we’ll stop by the Frank Lloyd Wright room. It is by far her […]
State Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver, one of the 3 most powerful politicians in NYS, has effectively killed the West Side Stadium project by stating that he will vote no at tonight’s Public Authorities Control Board meeting. This little known (before the stadium debate that is) board has only 3 people on it – the others […]
To following up on a post from February, Peru’s little mermaid, Milagros Cerron, underwent successful surgery to seperate her legs this past Tuesday.

The answer is “maybe never.” One my favorite movie quotes all time is from Spaceballs – its the classic “We’re looking at now, sir. Everthing that happens now is happening now…” quote (I’ve included the entire quote after the jump). However, a young astrophysicist named Peter Lynds has forumlated a theory which states that “time” […]
I usually do not post about celebrities but this was hard to resist. It seems that Burt Reynolds decided to vent his anger over his recent awful plastic surgery by slapping one poor CBS News reporter. When the reporter professed his ignorance about the plot of “The Longest Yard,” Reynolds gave him a good one. […]
Challenge Darth Vader to a game of 20 questions he likes to call The Sith Sense. My object was an radish which he guessed on the 17th question. Once again, the agency handling the Burger King account has developed a seriously cool viral concept. I especially likes the effect when Vader shakes your screen. Cool […]
