Top 7 Unfairly Hard Nintendo Moments

Now in 2010, we have a whole generation of kids running around that never had to suffer some of the 8-bit abominations that scarred my youth.

Britney Spears, An Epic Tale of Murder and Destiny: Part 1

From the very beginning, Britney’s offerings much pleased the Lord. The Lord much enjoyed the bubblegum pop stylings of a young Britney. While flipping channels in 1992, God ran across an episode of Star Search, and noticed a young up-and-comer named Britney Spears, a cherub-like blonde with the voice of an angel. The Lord was pleased, for his plan was just beginning to take shape.

Argument for the “Fair Tax”

Hello Flamethrower Magazine fans. It’s time for another political discussion by Crazy Uncle Charly.

I would like to make a case for scrapping the current health care plan and bring the Fair Tax to the floor for discussion.

I know, I know, you want health care for all and that would be great, but consider what this health care plan really is. It’s a new tax. If you don’t consider Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid a tax, then you don’t have your facts straight.

Movie Review: The Lovely Bones

The Lovely Bones was undisputedly one of the best new movies I have seen. There are many movies out there that are incredible, please don’t get me wrong. But none like this. The emotional rollercoaster took me from laughter to anger to sobbing.

NFL Week 17 Picks against the spread, Week 16 update

I went 8-8 in my picks against the spread last week, so I’ll go ahead and pick Week 17 and see if I can finish the season with a winning record.

This week seems really hard, considering it’s hard to tell which teams are actually going to be trying and which won’t.

The picks have almost nothing to do with which teams are actually more talented, just where their heads are at in Week 17. Which sucks, but that means if you do a little research and psychoanalyzing, you can usually pick them pretty well.
