    The Wonder Years

    I’ve been watching a lot of old reruns lately, love the 80’s TV, I'm hooked on two episodes of Wonder Years every night. I didn’t have a TV at that time, so it’s weirdly nostalgic yet I don’t really know any of the episodes. Thought this was a funny clip, it’s The Wonder Years without the voice...

    Yay! The superbowl starts in 1 minute! But I gotta admit I'm more psyched about the ads than I am the game.... *sheepish grin* Just not too into the Bears or the Colts. Anyway, what's your favorite ad? Thus far mine is: http://www.ifilm.com/video/2818995/c...site/superbowl Here they all are...

    the worst things to happen to music

    Which of these do you think is the worst of the worst? http://www.blender.com/guide/article...=1913&src=GM18 I think we can count #39 (AIDS) out because that was obviously worst for more than just music. I totally disagree with #5 (ecstasy) because I think that before that no one bothered to...

    martial arts movies

    This kicks ass (literally). It’s a compilation of the most brutal martial arts moments from the best martial arts films of all time. OUCH: http://www.maximonline.com/slideshow...m=1&src=gx1146 I was happy to see Onk Bak on that list, I think it’s often overlooked cuz it’s Thai, people forget...

    car insurance gimmicks

    What’s your favorite car insurance gimmick? The talking gecko? The gruff cowboy? What makes you feel the most automotive safety? I like the new one from Mercury (www.mercurytheory.com). If you haven’t seen it they are making the claim that the owners of Mercury are from Mercury and they’ve...

    HD Football

    Hey does anyone have the superfan package from Directv? Now that I have my 72” DLP TV set up with HDTV I’m thinking watching games in HD should be happening. Saw this site: www.heybuttercup.com wanted to know what “up to 9 games in HD every Sunday” means realistically.

    Flying Cars

    Ok, it’s 2006. Where are my flying cars? Yes I know they have them already, but you need a pilot’s license (which is silly because they are VTOL and you don’t need to use an airport runway, but I guess you need a license to use a helipad too). I don’t want big bulky VTOL specially licensed cars...

    Women's drinks

    I’ve always been one to go for the “foofy” drinks, anything that sweet and mixed. What I’d love to find is an actual man that knows how to mix a decent drink for a lady. I know you guys don’t like the fru-fru stuff yourself, but you know, it might benefit you to know how to get a lady a little...
