Maybe it’s insensitive of me to laugh at the fate of Philip A. Contos, but oh well, what are ya gonna do? Motorcyclist killed in anti-helmet rally.

Kids From Hell
It’s been a while since I’ve come across a video of kids who are better than me and probably you at music, but if you like those, today is your lucky day. This is a group of music students from Lexington, Kentucky rocking the bejesus out of Pantera’s Cowboys from Hell. According to the video …
Roselle Is Gone
I just heard this a couple of days ago. Everybody and their brother’s cousin’s sister’s uncle has heard the story of Michael Hingson and his guide dog Roselle, and how they not only got out of the World Trade Centre on September 11, 2001, but how they helped others too. Well, she has passed away …
