This is both funny and sad at one time. A 76 year old man went door-to-door posing as a doctor and offering freee breast examinations. The man had some cahonies, but what is most jaw-droppingly amazing about this story is that at least two women agreed (and possibly more)!

Are video games art?
Just picked this up from slashdot. I of course think they are. The debate as well as having artistic and philosophical consequences would also designate whether games would get first amendment protection easily or not. It is late however and I will edit and post my more in-depth thoughts on the subject when I get […]
Secret War Re-Enactment Society
I know it’s probably already made the rounds, but if you like comics or like making fun of comic book geeks, and even if you don’t have a clue what Secret Wars was, check out this video if only for a badly dressed Hulk playing frisbee.
It's About Time!
Gamespot has finally added the 11 year old classic, Chrono Trigger, to their list of the Greatest Games of All Time. It comes with a nice write up about the game, which was released in 1995 and yet still invokes passion and nostalgia in many a gamer. Possibly the most interesting part is the discussion […]
Planetside – Reserves
I played in the Planetside beta but didn’t want to pay for it when it was officially released. I thought it was alot of fun but not worth $15 a month. Recently Sony has released a free version which allows people to play and level their character up to a certain threshhold. If you want […]
Spore!
Thanks to Dennis for bringing this computer game to my attention. Since it has not yet appeared on this website though, I have decided to share the glory that is Spore. Spore is a game where the player starts out as a micro organism in a petree dish/raindrop/blob of ooze and evolves. After a certain […]
Wal-Mart – Smiley Face of DOOM (albeit with no violence)
So, I was looking at some site (probably slashdot or boingboing, where I find most of the stuff I find interesting) and ran across this article on Wal-Mart and the influence it has on the gaming industry. It’s pretty well written and I recommend reading it. Here is a brief synopsis – “Big corporation bad!”. […]
Kingdom Hearts II Review
When I first heard about Square-Enix’s decision to release another RPG based around one of my favorites on PS2 I was thrilled. Since that day I have been reading weekly updates about the game, watching the brief game play videos, and hearing what other gamers who enjoyed the first one had to say. After a […]
Dungeons and a Dragon?
When I first heard about Dungeons & Dragons Online I was very skeptical. The first reason was probably as simple as my un-hinderable lust for World of Warcraft at the time, but I also felt that there was little DDO could do to improve beyond what WoW provides. D&D Online provided a decent amount of […]
A Mystery of the Universe Revealed!
Yes, we finally have a scientific answer to that age-old question, what is the average airspeed velocity of an unlaiden swallow? The article is actually rather old, having been created in 2003, but it is still an excellent scientific jaunt into the world of avian airspeeds. For those not wanting to read the article, swallows […]
