A German entrepeneur has launched an airline for smokers — SMINTAIR — (Smoker’s International Airways).
Sit back, relax with plenty of leg room and breathe in that sweeet, sweet smell.

Speaking of cancer, a couple months back I posted a crazy picture of Eddie Van Halen who looked like David Letterman’s grandpa. A flickr user buzzkilled the [...]

I saw “Superman Returns” last night at a pre-release / 10pm showing — very entertaining. (7.3 Zaps) As I’ve read in many reviews, Brandon Routh does indeed not only act like a good Clark Kent/S-man but a Clark Kent/S-man played by Christopher Reeve.

Two days ago C’s phone died — completely. After much persuasion I convinced her to come over to the glorious world of Cingular. After work yesterday, we both went to a Cingular Authorized Retailer — (note I didn’t say “Cingular Store”) to look at new phones.
The phone she wanted: a pink Motorola Razr. When [...]

Self-proclaimed international sneakerographer Al Cabino immediately had a response to me yesterday afternoon, when I mentioned a link to the eBay auction for a reproduction of the “McFlys” — the Nike PowerLace shoes seen in Back to the Future Part II (auction since removed as it’s a violation to post an item with a logo [...]

(via Carrie) Dustin Diamond has gotten himself into a dill of a pickle. The bank is foreclosing on his home loan and he’s struggling to use his H-List celebrity status to save his Wisconsin home.
