I’m not a big risk taker in my life.

I try not to tick off the Grim Reaper, keeping him at arm’s length as much as possible.

I’m wondering what the owners and patrons of a new eating establishment in the Ukraine were thinking when they mocked death by building a theme restaurant named Eternity centered around the funeral experience.

I thought I’d seen caskets pushed to the nth degree when I read about the Crazy Casket company in the UK.

I was wrong.

Undertakers built what they hope Guinness will recognize as the World’s Largest Casket.

Inside this giant wooden death box, the owners have put in tables and a bar and are serving meals with names that recall mourning rituals. Funeral floral wreaths hang on the walls and normal-sized caskets are propped against the walls between tables.

I’m guessing the Goth crowd is making reservations right now for lunch and dinner.

Thanks, but no thanks. I’ll stick with McDonald’s.

 In news that is sure to make NewsComa a very happy blogger, zombies are getting more and more popular every day.  I don’t mean actual zombies, since the smell and the flesh-eating is still enough to keep them far down on the list of invited guests to your average party; I’m talking about movie zombies.  […]

I think the best thing we can say about this photo from Chicken Crap is that the people who own this convenience store do not want you to do anything.
Pull up your pants?
How in God’s green earth did that become policy?

Who doesn’t love some gross humor.
Come on, admit it. The lowbrow can still be funny.
We were taught this at an early age thanks to the folks at Topps who produced Wacky Packages stickers.
You remember don’t you. A pack of stickers with parodies of actual products available on the local grocer’s shelves reformed into a panoply […]

I have to admit I’m anxious to get to play with the new Wii Fit.
The stand-on board from Nintendo looks like a real test of balance and, considering I’m not the most graceful, it will be a challenge.
One thing about the Fit, I don’t imagine the big white rectangle will be turned into a […]

The playground is supposed to be a happy place.  Filled with kids running around, having fun, screaming with laughter and delight as they gambol and cavort about like beasts in the field.  Sure you might get the occasional skinned knee, but mostly the playground is a place for kids to be kids and revel in […]

It’s squirrel week at Pop Fi!

We all know it’s going to happen.  One day or another, someone will invent a vigilante robot or something and the next thing you know the entirety of Planet Earth is a post-apocalyptic wasteland with gunfights in the streets, rioting, and Australian kids throwing boomerangs at people.  It’s a bad scene if you’re unprepared, but […]
