This is how I celebrate Memorial Day.
Nine days after getting married, Steve Metze found out he was being deployed as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Metze, a West Point graduate, Desert Storm veteran, and documentary filmmaker, decided to pack a camera and document his year in Iraq. The film consists of footage shot by Metze during his deployment to Iraq and…

Annular Eclipse: May 20, 2012
An annular eclipse occurs when the Sun and Moon are exactly in line, but the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun. Hence the Sun appears as a very bright ring, or annulus, surrounding the outline of the Moon.

Godless Heathens That Go Around Getting Hitched
I have a serious question for anyone that is against gay marriage for religious reasons: Why aren’t you trying to suppress atheists from getting married? After all, there are millions of gay people that actually believe in God (even the same one as you), but you don’t want them defiling the church through unholy matrimony.…

“Samsara” Teaser Trailer
My favorite film of all time (Baraka) just got a sequel. I wish every human being on the planet could see this just once.

Google Drive is here!
Google Drive is here! I is everywhere you are—on the web, in your home, at the office and on the go. So wherever you are, your stuff is just…there. Ready to go, ready to share. Get started with 5 GB free. The internet just got a whole lot cloudier.

Interaction vs. Communication
We interact with our co-workers, our family members, and people randomly in public, but we don’t really have to do much communication.

It’s time to stop blaming racism for Trayvon Martin’s death.
It’s time to stop blaming racism for Trayvon Martin’s death. People will always be xenophobic, and the only thing we can do about that is deal with it. Why do you think the talking heads keep bringing up hoodies, Skittles, and other irrelevant information? Because it’s easier than talking about gun control.

JenniDaleLord.com
I first started doing Jenni’s website back when she was just a girl and her guitar at coffee shops. I enjoyed her music and her company, so I felt compelled to help her with her online presence. Years later, when she was gearing up to record her first album with a full band, I felt…

Adorably Annoying Singing Toy Dog
This thing was so adorable and annoying that I had to share it with the whole world. You won’t be able to get the song out of your head.

Thunderstorm from High Rise Building
This is just one minute of a relaxing storm that rolled into Dallas, Texas for the evening. I wish it’d never ended.

The Perfect (Cheap) Gift for Geeks
Do you know a geek that loves television shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Doctor Who, Star Trek, or Battlestar Galactica? You probably do and just don’t realize it because geeks are everywhere. And I know the perfect cheap gift for them. Say what you will about Netflix and their pricing fiasco, they currently have…

As I was pulling into the drive-through to get breakfast, I had to stop and wait for an elderly couple to slowly drive out of the way. While I was waiting, a young woman came around the corner and cut in line ahead of me. I was way more annoyed than I probably should’ve been…

Skrillex’s “First of the Year (Equinox)”
The first time I heard this song it was because a friend of my girlfriend introduced us to it, and at the time they both said that they would do this to any pedophile. A year later, we found out that their friend (and the father of my girlfriend’s children) was an incestuous pedophile, but…

If you don’t like the fact that we have the First Amendment, then maybe you should move to another country that doesn’t have freedom of expression instead of lazily bitching at those who are brave enough to use it.

I’m passing this on because it worked for me today.
I’m passing this on because it worked for me today. A doctor on TV said to have inner peace we should always finish things we start. I looked around my house to find things I’d started and hadn’t finished, so I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Chardonnnay, a bag of weed,…

Joss Whedon was asked, “Why do you write strong female characters?” He replied, “Because you’re still asking me that question.”

I heard a boom followed by the screech of tires. I looked outside and saw an accident had taken place. Thirty seconds after the collision I was telling 911 all about it. Two minutes later the first help arrived. Ten minutes later the two drivers were off to the hospital. Amazing how quickly we can…

Do you agree or disagree with this statement?
Do you agree or disagree with this statement? “If we’re serious about building an economy that lasts — an economy in which hard work pays off with the opportunity for solid middle-class jobs — we’ve got to get serious about education. We are going to have to pick up our games and raise our standards.”
