Athens is Burning

August 28, 2007

In case you’ve been living under a rock, my father’s country of birth (Greece) has massive fires raging all around Athens which have killed 63 people in just the last few days. Now, I don’t want anyone to take any of the comments I’m about to make the wrong way. I love Greece, and the [...]

10 Worst Drivers Ever Caught on Video

February 7, 2007
