Children Take Bounce House Ride of a Lifetime I know I really shouldn’t joke about this but come on…it’s kinda funny. Besides, the children involved are okay, despite some injuries. On Monday of this week two young boys in New York were swept away while in their bounce house. A gust of wind blew the bounce house 15 to 20 feet in the air and the boys fell to the ground below. I know this is pretty scary but just imagine the scenario for a second. You’re telling me youRead More

The Next Green States

21 states and the District of Columbia have either decriminalized marijuana or legalized its medicinal use. Who’s next? Quinnipiac University released a study that found 88% of Floridians are in favor of medical marijuana so long as it is used in accordance with a doctor. Florida will vote on an amendment, Florida’s Question 2, this coming November. The vote requires 60% to pass. In Florida, cannabis possession is slightly decriminalized but the sale, transportation, or cultivation of the drug remain illegal. If Florida votes to legalize medical marijuana, look for them to continueRead More
Smart Car Tipping Crime Spree Earlier this week in San Francisco. four Smart cars were turned on their sides in an act of vandalism. Police are investigating suspects and so far the only lead they have are reports of seven hooded figures. Someone call Snow White! Just kidding, there were no reports on their height. Authorities are also trying to decide whether these are just random crime acts or a protest/hate-crime against Smart cars. But you know what I think? I think those hipster city-folk want to have their ownRead More

Final Four Picks and Predictions

The Madness has subsided and we’re down to the Final Four challengers for that oh-so-elusive final clip in the annual “One Shining Moment” montage. Florida, the #1 overall seed, we certainly expected to be here. Wisconsin, the #2 seed in the West, isn’t much of a shocker. Kentucky, the #8 seed in the Midwest region is a bit of a surprise, but nobody doubted the talent on the team that was ranked #1 in the preseason. UConn, who was ranked as high as #10 in the nation during the regularRead More

The 2013-14 College Football Season Review

What a season it was. The SEC’s reign of BCS terror ended, as did the atrocity of the BCS itself. We had a second consecutive freshman win the Heisman Trophy, we had a 2,000 yard rusher, and we had a neat, tidy, undefeated National Champion. In the final version of the BCS, we had almost everything wrap up in a perfect, uncontroversial manner. We had the usual drama: inexplicable losses, statistically improbable victories, superstars being superstars, and everything in between. So, as we kiss a long-overdue goodbye to the BCS, andRead More

10 Songs from 2013 That We Love to Hate

We’ve all experienced that moment.  You’re listening to the radio when suddenly that song comes on.  You know, that one song that just won’t go away.  You’ve heard it at work, in the supermarket, at the laundromat, and from that homeless guy singing it outside your apartment, all before noon.  But for some reason you let it play.  “Oh, there’s probably nothing else on,” you joke to your friends, but some part of you doesn’t want to change it.  It’s the same part that DVRs every rendition of “Real Housewives”Read More
