Inception Movie: Legolized!
I don't think it has escaped anyone's attention that Inception is, next after The Matrix, the highest grossing sci-fi movie ever released. The intricate storyline and the spectacular special effects make the movie somewhat of a milestone of combined efforts to make the über movie of the century. E ...
Protect Yourself Against Blood Suckers – Vampire Killing Kits
Maybe it's true. Maybe I'm going a little overboard with all the writing about vampires and zombies, but it's just so much fun. The comments I get on those articles are always so interesting.
To me, it's all just fantasy-land. To some people; however, it's serious stuff. Today, it's all about ...
These Super Mario Characters Are Zombies!
I totally dig the whole zombie/vampire culture. I think it's a lot of fun. I don't like it as much as the couple that went so far as to have a romantic zombie wedding, but I love the movies. John Carpenter's Vampires is a classic that will always be one of my favorites.

Get Creative – Pimp Your Pizza Cutter
My 9-year-old son eats pizza at least four times a week. If I'm a coffee-holic, he is definitely a pizza-holic. Sometimes we order it to be delivered, but for a more healthy option, many times we make it at home.
I gotta admit, after making so many pizzas in his lifetime, it's getting monotonou ...
Become A Baking Jedi – Star Wars Cookie Cutters
I don't bake much, but if I did, making these cookies would be at the top of my list! What could be better than gracing your cookie jar and your tummy with Yoda, Darth Vader, Boba Fett and a Stormtrooper?
These just aren't ordinary cookie cutters either. The stamp in each cutter is spring loade ...
How To: Surf with Just a Tarp and a Skateboard
It's summer, and it's hot like a mofo outside. All you want is to go to the beach and catch a wave or two. Surfing on the computer is no fun, and unfortunately, the beach is too far away for you to ever make it there and back in the time you have. What will you do then? Well, you don't have many ...
Brilliant Caffeinated T-Shirt: “I Was Here”
I confess! I am a t-shirt junkie with a fanatic need to find the ultimate t-shirt for each day and occasion. It's not easy I tell you. Designs are sometimes limited in stores and finding something that will set both you and the viewer on the edge can be quite impossible sometimes. I have asked m ...
Here Is The Undead Side Of Super Mario!
There is no mistaking that vampires, zombies and undeads are a hot topic of the present. Pretty much every movie that is released right now has some element of one or more of these things. It seems like we are so overly excited about the undead and the rotting of forever that we just can't get eno ...
The Fastest 100 Meter Hurdles – Wearing Flippers!
I believe that a person trying to break a Guinness World Record is awesome. I imagine setting a record is even more amazing. I found a video of a girl from New Zealand who broke the 100 meter hurdles wearing flippers. Imagine how difficult it is to walk using those enormous flippers! Here you se ...
Can’t Afford A Real Nintendo Console? Buy A Wooden One!
Consoles today aren't exactly cheap. I remember when I was younger and decided to get myself a Nintendo NES console. Sure, it was a lot of money back then, but they were just $150 a pop. Today some consoles set you back $595 if you want to geek out on some majestic gaming. And, it doesn't really ...
Star Wars Yoga – The Exercise for Geeks
This is so funny to me. I see people tweeting about yoga all the time. I've tried it before, but I just don't think it's for me. All that twisting and turning and holding poses, nah... I'd rather just hit my bike for exercise.
Maybe if I found a way to make yoga more fun, I would like it bette ...
Misfortune Cookies – Being A Smartass Never Tasted So Good!
I love fortune cookies. They are such a fun way to end a Kung Pao chicken dinner. However, I have a few sarcastic friends who despise the Pollyanna happy nature of fortune cookie messages.
For those of you who want to add a little verbal zip to your crunchy fortune cookie, I would like to intro ...
LEGO Goes Badass: The Plastic Figurines Now Have Tattoos!
LEGO certainly seems to have no boundaries when it comes to creativity and the number of people who still find it to be one of the best pastimes they could have. It just so happens that LEGO is producing way more cool stuff that we never get to check out since they find it not to be broad enough fo ...
Mustaches For Girls – Would You Wear One?
I can't stop laughing over this one. I don't know what's funnier, that someone created pink mustaches for girls or the fact that they are called "furry lip ornaments" in their marketing.
This set of seven stylish (yes, I said stylish) mustaches is made to accentuate feminine features. Wow, I ne ...
How To: Make The Biggest Bubble
Do you like making bubbles? When my brother was young, I would make bubbles with him to entertain him. We would usually have hours and hours of fun with it. We always wished we could create really big ones. The size of the bubbles really depends on the size of the ring or mold used. I found one ...
