    Geraldo Rivera kicked out of his embedded unit by US Marines

    Rivera now being escorted back to Kuwait. Seems he repeatedly ignored the rules and gave away operational details to get his viewers the "most accurate information." He was giving away actual locations of fighting and troop movements on TV. Too bad the Iraqis couldnt have used their suicide...

    BlueNile.com? - anyone used?

    I thought a while back there was a review of this site and whether or not the rings they made were of good quality. For some reason buying a ring is just one of those things I never thought of doing online before, but someone told me their prices were unreal. Anyone out there shopped around at...

    The Core - short movie review

    A blurb about this movie came out in Astronomy magazine 4 or so months ago and ever since then my girlfriend and I have been chomping at the bit to see it.

    God bless the troops

    Regardless of your stance on war, the very fact that we are teetering on the edge of aggression means we are that much closer to the loss of the first American or other foreign national's life. Whether from the US, Canada, Britain or elsewhere, these men and women put their lives on the front...

    My personal boycott of French products

    I dont much like Bill O'Reillys politics all the time but I think he is spot on in this regard. The French economy is already growing at low single digit rates and everything I have seen from the Brookings Institute to the Cato Institute has said any real decision by America to boycott French...

    I am always giving people advice on poker chip sets and which ones to buy. 11.5 gram, solid clay, nothing but the best. Finally my girlfriend asks me, well why dont you buy some yourself?

    The computer program you all MUST use

    http://www.heidi.ie/eraser/ I saw this on TechTV the other day and think it is something you all should be using. The best part is that it is FREE. As you may have heard, one of the undercover news shows recently bought 200 used computers from places like Ebay, and on 197 of them they were...
