Dude seems to have thought of damn near everything. Some of his choices aren't my cup of tea, but that's all subjective. Still damn impressive though.

There is a documentary on Netflix called Abduction in Plain Sight. Has anyone else watched it? I watched it this weekend and it was just crazy bonkers to me. Never heard of a story like that and that's saying something because there some crazy stories out there. If you haven't seen it and want...

As critical as I've been of Trump the one thing I've said many times here on these boards was the best decision Trump made as president was picking Mattis as Defense Secretary. His resignation is a big blow. He was a huge firewall for our troops. Mattis' resignation letter made it clear Trump...

A pretty in-depth look at the thousands of coal minders who are dying from advanced black lung. Which is not being caused by coal dust so much as it being caused by silica dust. Which is the dust from the quartz they drill through to get to the coal as most major coal veins are tapped out...

This isn't surprising. Hopefully by now folks know that all the big tech giants collect and share any and all of your data. NOTHING is sacred. I wonder what people are going to do when they find out what sites like 23 and Me and Ancestry.com are doing with everyone's information...

A biker breaks down and a trucker offers cover for her to get it across to the highway. Love it when people help bikers out like this.

For those of us that remember the sitcom WKRP. Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

If you're a Rush fan like myself, I think you'll REALLY appreciate this. If you're not a Rush fan, I think you will also appreciate it. But can you imagine the kid that had to follow her? I'd be like "Eff it, just give the trophy to her. I'm gonna go home and practice more."...

I wonder what the heck is going on here? Evacuated, FBI on the scene and local police/authorities being kept in the dark on what's going on. I just watched the movie Signs last night for the first time. I wonder if I need to put on the protective helmet from that movie? :biglaugh...

Fair Winds and Following Seas, Senator McCain The family announced Senator John McCain was discontinuing medical treatment for brain cancer. Fair winds and following seas captain! My heart goes out to the McCain family! And my sincerest gratitude for a life of service to this nation! I...

This dude is nuts... and yet a legend. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDEgFbBNDqk

Cool video of David Grohl playing a ton of instruments in a 23 minute rock instrumental. But what I enjoy is how the first 10+ minutes is really showing a musician at his level still has a lot in common with that kid just learning to play. Great video and I really loved the instrumental as well...

An odd IT moment today. So our level 2 support team reaches out to me to help with a user who isn't happy with their service. The user is a scientist from Germany who is angry the emails he's sending to his work email from his home email are getting quarantined and not reaching his Inbox. I...

Every now and then we're reminded the common task we do thousands of times in our life can actually be dangerous at times: refueling. I can imagine all the engineers sitting around a table designing a $300,000 supercar the question of "What would happen if a dumbass in a minivan on the other...

I don't know if there are fellow documentary nerds like myself here, but on Netflix now is the Ken Burns documentary on The Vietnam War. As with all things Ken Burns, it's very thorough and long. 10 episodes. Each episode 90 to 120 mins long. It looks at all things around the war: the history...

Found this thread and it cracked me up. Animals who look like they're posing for band photos....

If this weapon does what it claims(I'm highly skeptical) then this is the start of a new era of ground warfare. As the U.S. prepares for war in space, China’s bringing the space war home. Its ZKZM-500 laser assault rifle is reportedly capable of hitting a target from a kilometer away...

I came across an interesting site that has some cool historic photos that I found interesting. Each one creating questions in my mind. Here's a few in case you might enjoy them too. 1. 1938 - Frank Sinatra mugshot. Arrested for "Carrying on with a married woman." 2. 1846 - The very first...

A friend told me about this and I thought "Yea, but they're using modern day motorcross bikes, thats a big difference from Evel's bikes." And turns out Travis is choosing NOT to use the motocross bikes and instead he's going to be using a modified Indian Scout FTR750 Flat Tracker. :punk...
