What makes it possible to fly with so little wing? I would guess it has to do with the combination of the light airframe needing little lift to stay in the air and the powerful engine that lets the airfoil produce a lot of lift with little surface area. Am I in the ballpark on this?

Logo on a Browns helmet? OVER MY DEAD BODY!

Actually it looks like memorial photography is still a fairly common practice in Eastern Europe.

Memorial photography was actually a big thing in the United States. It became popular in the late-19th century. Photography was becoming common, but was still more expensive than most people could afford. That meant you tended to only have one portrait taken in your life, so if a loved one died suddenly (which…

No snapping open casket photos, please. That's lazy. If you're going to take pictures of your deceased loved one, have the decency to put the effort into making it a nice family portrait. Keep it classy!

"Eh, a season with the Browns wouldn't be so bad."

Vin Scully might be more hour to hour.

Word! Both of my parents were children of alcoholics and suffered a pretty horrific amount of physical and emotional abuse growing up. They were both able to break the cycle and were terrific parents to my brother and me. A lot of my friends can't say the same and, as I've become an adult, I realize how fortunate I am…

Apparently there was a successor to Drunk Punk Fest that sprang up on the out-skirts of our town a few years later.

Rancid performing ...And Out Come the Wolves! This reminds me of "Drunk Punk Fest" in high school. Basically it was a weekly get together of a bunch of 15 and 16-year-olds at some older dudes' place (read: 18 or 19) and playing a bunch of Op Ivy and Rancid covers in their surprisingly soundproof basement. There would…

No matter how badly the Browns shit the bed on this one, Cleveland fans at least feel good that Red Right 88 is no longer the worst call of all time.

Does anybody else think Kanye might be bipolar? His outbursts tend to happen in clusters, then he goes away for awhile only to pop back up with another string of bizarre incidents. He certainly appears to display a megalomaniacal personality, and I wonder if these are genuine delusions of grander. Granted, we don't…

There's a good chance this is the ass of the Academic Provost at Youngstown State.

The coronation will be held on Chippewa and celebrated with a feast of pierogi and hot wings. The Goo Goo Dolls will play. It will be terrible.

It almost seems like morality can be based on empathy and need not be derived from a divine source. Weird.

As much as it pains me to admit it, Tom Brady is probably one of the best of all time—Certainly in the top three, if not the greatest outright. (Goddamnitsomuch.)

Nice.
