You can tell we're geeks because we drink way more soda than we should. I've been locked in a death-dance with the fizzy Jezebel for my entire life. My temptress currently wears the mask of Coke Zero - something about its crisp, ascetic cola flavor speaks to my soul. Plus, it's not sticky when you spill it (no sugar, see?).

But one nagging concern keeps me from fully enjoying my soda jags: what if there's something out there that's even better? What keeps coders and copywriters awake in Bogota, Bangkok, and Birmingham? There's a whole world of canned, bottled, and, for all I know, bagged beverages that I've never dared to explore. Will I find a new, exotic love to excite my palate and share my mini-fridge?

Believe It Or Whatever

When researchers tracked down these two Omron HJ-002 Step Pedometers years after they?d been adopted by separate families, they were amazed at what they found.

After being raised thousands of miles apart in completely different socio-economic circumstances, the adult twin pedometers were? not really all that much alike.

There are many monsters in the world. Some of them go out and do terrible monstery things. Some of them just sit alone in little u-shaped basins and don't bother anybody. C'mon, be honest, which one is gonna be easier for you to take out?

Like an angry bouncer at the most exclusive club in town, Paper Cannon offers you a chance to get rid of those irritating monsters while they're just...

A Golden Record?

Seriously, NASA, if Earthlings barely listen to LPs anymore, what makes you think Extraterrestrials will?

Don?t get me wrong. It was a genius idea to include a golden record with images and sounds from our fair blue planet encoded in it when you sent Voyager off into space, but times have changed. Unless you expect us to be visited by an armada of interstellar DJs looking to search through our crates of...

You didn't just learn letters, numbers, and the occasional bit of Spanish from Sesame Street. You also learned about rock 'n' roll. Presenting part one of a two-part compilation of our favorite Sesame Street song parodies, from rockabilly to disco. Pop music has never been so educational, nor so furry...

Honk Around The Clock
As we all know, rock 'n' roll was born when R&B was appropriated by the honkies.

In the upcoming year, our resolution is to get to know our community a little better. What you like, what you dislike, who you are. We've learned from talking to you, there's a lot to enjoy by meeting our community!

Today, though, we've got an interview with forums users LuminousSpecter and socialhazardforhim about how they became engaged on the set of Voyage Of The Dawn Treader wearing shirt.woot shirts.
