A new spray can get you drunk within seconds.. and sober just as quick

A storm followed by a beautiful foggy orange sunset here in the Coal Region of PA.. Bring on Friday

NJ mom arrested for taking her 6 year old tanning.. I’m frankly just in shock at her face..

Dr. Mary Neal from last year on Dr. Oz..


I just heard her the other night on Coast to Coast AM. Her story sounds profound.


But profound why? Because as a skeptic she now believes in near death experiences and God? Or because the brain convinces dying people that God exists…? I wish we knew.. ?

Many men lie about girlfriends that they have had.. but what about the President of the United States? Apparently he did about his "New York girlfriend" who saw a play with him.. He wrote about it in his memoir. Turns out that it... really didn't happen

I am slightly addicted to Temple Run

Ok.. More than slightly.

I’m an enormous BATMAN fan.. even more of a fan of the Nolan films than any other. The latest trailer was released… 


All I can say is this: If a movie trailer can raise the hairs on my arms and cause my eyes to swell with tears, I cannot even imagine what the whole movie will do. 


Yes I’m not ashamed to admit it. DARK KNIGHT RISES may make me, a 31-year-old grown man, weep.

One question. 


What do you think about this man?

We’re here to take your liver: Facebook begins new organ donor ‘share status’..


No really.. Facebook users can now share as their status whether they are an organ donor or not. I don’t want to debate the pros and cons of organ donation or broadcasting it to the world on Facebook. But I did want an excuse to post a photo from one of my favorite movies, THE MEANING OF LIFE.. The scene with organ donations cannot be forgotten. Hope the folks who show up at your door for your liver don’t exist. If they do, they will be busy checking Facebook for their next patient.

Man discovers he has a broken neck--and has had one for 40 years!

Once in (our) lifetime event: Last chance to see Venus transit for over 100 years.. Pretty cool stuff. Hope the skies are clear.. and speaking of Venus 100 years ago when people saw it last time: History: A Historican weaves thrilling tale of 18th century expeditions to see Venus transit..


It makes me slightly sad that we don’t have edge of the seat expiditions anymore. Things are too easy. Let’s make space exploration dangerous again!

The groans. The moans. The tones. And Canada is getting really annoyed

The Earth may be making strange sounds.. but Canada seems to be thinking the noises it is hearing are coming from the United States!


The Wall Street JOURNAL reports that residents in Ontario are blaming the noises for illnesses, whipping dogs into frenzies, and keeping cats housebound.. 


Americans cannot seem to hear it.


Only people in the “Windsor Hum” area..


Is it Detroit?


Is America itself groaning?


There sure is lots to groan about, right?

Paul vs. Paul The epic economic debate. No really, it was just that cool to hear them both debate like civil people.

This photo illustrates how brutal of a hit Tony Pietrantonio’s face took in Atlantic City.. Wow.

Some might say.. indeed.


Travel with me back to the the mid 90s.. peace and prosperity, minus the brewing crises of war and economic peril.. It was fun. 


And Oasis was fun to.


This song, SOME MIGHT SAY, brought to you by SoundCloud and Tumblr. Turn up the volume, crack open whatever cold beverage or brew whatever hot one.. 


I think this song feature the best line in any song ever written, 



Some might say they don’t believe in heaven


Go and tell that to the man who lives in hell


Holy crap is that Adam Sandler?!


My wife after she saw a photo of Hugo Chavez. No, it indeed is not Adam Sandler.

I am bothered by some email forwards lately

I will be honest. I hate email forwards. Really despise the long joke format emails, too.. If you are going to send a forward, I contend the best of them are just the quick one liners or just a quick photo. And do a favor to the receiver, delete all the nonsense email addresses and other names of people who got it for the previous year.


That all being said.. I really really despite People of Walmart forwards.


The website is hugely popular. I’ve been to it. I walk away from it being lightly amused and first and then … well.. disturbed. Not disturbed by the “people” of Walmart but by the whole concept that, regardless of how much of fool you may look like in our yellow thong or high boots, someone is ready to snap a photo of you and post it online. Your face isn’t blurred.. your image captured for the amusement of others who now get it in email—people who probably pick their noses and rear ends and look just a foolish at times as the people they are laughing at.


Earlier today I posted a quick link about a new APP that tells you if you are ugly or not. Maybe you are really attractive. 


Instead I’d opt for the app to tell me if someone is ugly deep down in their soul. 


I love a good laugh. But constantly laughing at the expense of other? ..that I am not fond of.

Some history just got made today. From the ruins of Ground Zero over a decade ago to this, today: The Freedom Tower, 1 World Trade Center, is not taller than the Empire State Building.


Not bad for a project that seemed to almost never get off the ground, excuse the pun. 


From those tragic days in the post 9/11 world, cleaning up dust and debris, bodies and souls.. to this. 


History made today.
