You know what the future of warfare holds? The same as it always has. No matter what technology brings us, no matter how many drone strikes, cruise missiles, or networked top-down command and control structures displaying on giant video screens you have, there will always be a need for the grunt to put boots on the…

You know that no matter what he says, the attack dogs in the totally-not-affiliated-with-Mike-Huckabee "Friends of Mike Huckabee PAC" will spend tons of money trashing Hillary in attack ads, while he goes "tut-tut" and shakes his head that someone would say such mean things about that nice lady.

Why do you assume that doctors and patients are making their own decisions under the current system? The people currently making the decisions are the bean-counters who create the actuarial tables listing the risk/reward ratio for every procedure out there, and the boards of directors of the big insurance…

I don't compare the Green Mile with the Dark Tower. The Green Mile is a fairly straightforward period piece that has some supernatural elements. Yes, they did a fantastic job with that one, but it really isn't that hard of a sell to the audience as DT would be. DT is a schizoid mashup of westerns, sci fi, high…

Please, no.

Song lyrics aside....what is up with him and those stupid hats? I've seen him on a couple of awards shows and other things like that and he has them in a few different colors.

This spoiler-free post seems to have a lot of spoilers in it.

+1 for Avatar: The Last Airbender.

That's like...super gross...and yet fascinating at the same time....

Still nowhere near as bad as the Wheel of Time series. Just when you thought it would be time to start wrapping up plot lines, since Jordan said "this will be the next to last book")....Bam! New characters, new plot lines, a whole new continent/people (the Seanchan) and an announcement "no, I really think I've got…

Oh yeah, that was a cop game if I recall. I also recall that my thighs burned all day after playing that one. It was a fun game, though.

+100 internets to you, my good friend.

We are in the market for a new TV for our living room (the 46" is going to our bedroom and the old bedroom TV going to the kid's playroom). I worry that if I buy a Smart TV, the software will go out of date really fast and won't have any new updates. I'd kind of prefer to go the Apple TV or Roku route and get a dumb…

Wow, just checked on Steam and BO2 is *still* $60 a year later. Crap.

People like me do. And for the last couple of years, we actually don't buy these AAA FPS games any more. The last one I bought was Spec Ops: The Line and I really enjoyed because it actually had an interesting single player campaign. Before that it was Black Ops 1 (I might get BO2 now that the price is lower).

You don't. You just make sure that when you come out of the water you pull the charging handle back a little bit to clear any water out of the barrel and chamber. It will fire just fine after that.

Netflix and Google All Access Music both have the right idea and they each get about $10 of my money every month. Steam does too (well, they get my money when they have a good sale a few times a year). If you make access to the content (music, movies, games) "easier than free", then you get my business. If you put…

You can get it when Motorola

Yes, that was one of the reasons that I stopped watching Revolution after about episode 3 or 4. It's like 15 years after the "incident" that shut off the power, but everyone still looks like their clothes are brand new, haven't been lived in, washed 100 times, and patched up. Their hair is always perfect, their…

That's what LastPass is for. Every site of the hundred-plus sites that I log into has a 12-20 character completely random password generated via LastPass. I have no idea what my Amazon or Netflix passwords are. I do know that the 25+ character master passphrase for LastPass is easy for me to remember and extremely…
