You know, I don’t think I could be any more disappointed in Google than I am today. And that is a shame because I’m normally a big fan. I mean, just look… I’ve got an entire category dedicated to Google Tools with 50 posts in it! But the problem is, today Google decided to penalize [...]

Humans have been taking part in sporting events for thousands of years, and now we’ve got ESPN to broadcast them 24 hours a day! However, you aren’t going to see these gems on TV even if you’re watching at 2am. We’ve got a little of everything here from Camel Wrestling to Bog Snorkelling and Cheese [...]

JFK, Freedom, America, and Apple Pie

October 24, 2007

I know this post is kind of random and out of the blue, but I was listening to someone on the radio making some ignorant statements and I had some thoughts I wanted out of my head… I understand that some countries don’t like the US. I also understand that this is almost universally true [...]

This is pretty amusing. At the end of this video I think the guy says that he’s willing to come to America and win the $1,000,000 show? I guess he’s talking about some talent show, and to be honest this little act is quite amusing. Though I’m not sure he’s gonna be able to compete [...]

BlogRush Deactivates OMB for “Inappropriate Content”

October 22, 2007

You know, I’ve had it completely with BlogRush. As far as I’m concerned John Reese can go get bent. Why? Well, this is a service that was so poorly rolled out that after I announced it right here on OMB I had to modify my post within 1 day. That is the ONLY time I’ve [...]

US State GDPs VS Other Countries

October 22, 2007

We often hear about how the US is such a consumption oriented country. We’ve got the fattest people, we pollute the most, we’re spoiled… yeah, yeah, whatever. But here is an interesting way to look at the economic impact the US plays on the global economy. You see, comparing the Gross Domestic Product of another [...]

More Muslim Wife Beating Justification

October 21, 2007

A while back I wrote about a video of a Muslim cleric who gave a lecture on the proper way to beat a woman. And of course we were recently reminded of the true tragedy of spousal abuse with this film of a man actually beating his wife. Well, thanks to Adi again we have [...]

In the game a croupier spins a wheel in one direction, then spins a ball in the opposite direction around a tilted circular surface running around the circumference of the wheel. The ball eventually falls on to the wheel and [...]
