Another day, another brush with the law for troubled Canadian pop star Justin Bieber.  As it turns out, being a millionaire since age 15 and being coddled by a legion of publicists, producers, bodyguards, enablers, and hangers-on isn’t really good for personal development.  First he eggs a neighbor’s house, then he goes out drag-racing while […]

Cows can be destructive to property, that much is true.  They’re large, they smell, they excrete poisonous chemicals, and their tongues can destroy your home.  It’s no wonder that cows would, eventually, turn on themselves.  A dairy farm in Rasdorf, Germany, was the scene of an emergency scene with firefighters and emergency services being called […]

The best thing about music awards shows is that it brings together all genres, all styles, all ages, and all possible combinations of artists and puts them together on the same stage.  That musical mix and match was the theme of the 56th Grammy Awards, which featured weird collaborations, weird performances, and lots and lots […]

Another day, another dust-up with the cops for Justin Bieber.  Just two weeks ago, Bieber egged his neighbor’s house and got the cops called on him.  Now, he’s making a Fast and Furious sequel on the streets of Miami, Florida, after a night out at the club with a head full of narcotics.  Justin Bieber […]

For seven quarters, PC sales have declined.  That’s a lot of lost sales, and most of the blame is getting put onto Windows 8 and the so-called Metro interface.  As it turns out, a universal touchscreen-style interface isn’t as appealing to the world as Microsoft thought it would be way back in 2010 and its sales […]

It’s a historic match-up for Super Bowl XLVIII at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey.  The first cold weather Super Bowl will feature two experienced franchises, both of whom have been there before even if most of the individual players haven’t played for the championship.  For one team, it’s a reward for the so-called “best fans […]

With the Golden Globes over and done with, the official start of awards season is upon us.  There are plenty of awards between now and March, but there’s not an award ceremony more important than the Academy Awards.  It’s the goal of every actor, director, writer, etc. to win an Oscar, because that means you’re […]

No matter where you go or what you’re doing, there’ll be someone there texting.  It’s the distraction of our age.  People text walking down the street, people text while driving (and holding babies), and these days people are more likely to text than write.  Before every movie in every movie theater, there are warnings, reminding […]

Man, teenage pop stars just can’t avoid trouble these days, particularly the current prince of pop, Canadian songbird Justin Bieber.  When he’s on tour, he’s riding around in a bus full of reefer, spraying graffiti and allegedly visiting brothels in Brazil, and peeing in mop buckets at night club.  Even when he’s not doing anything […]

For fourteen years, one of the world’s largest countries hasn’t been able to play the very products it assembles.  That country would be China, which in 2000 passed an unusual ban.  Claiming the devices were poisoning young minds, China banned video game consoles.  That means Microsoft, Sony, and Nintendo have been unable to get a […]

It’s not hard to find books these days if you’re looking for them, but sometimes you just need a little extra help to find the best possible books and the best possible book deals.  There are many reasons to give away a book, including as part of a lending library to encourage Amazon Prime purchases, […]

Are you a Snapchat user?  Or, rather, is your child a Snapchat user?  If you’re not sure of the answer, or if the answer is yes, then you’d better pay attention.  Hackers leaked 4.6 million phone numbers for Snapchat users in a move designed to shame the company into taking better security precautions.  The hackers […]
