Don't ask me why but I really like http://stuffwhitepeoplelike.com/. We were arguing about what music to play in my store when I ran across #116 "black music that black people don't listen to anymore" and (because it cracked me up) I used it as a basis for my argument. We no longer play jazz.

I'm a big Star Wars fan, and i enjoy finding out about the fictional technologies in Star Wars, as well as how the films were made. I spend my time often looking around this site. Enjoy (maybe)

At Kongregate, you should try out Frontline Defense Beta 2- The full game is at Maxgames.com, 20 levels. At Kongregate its 8 levels.

Its a hard game at the start if youre a beginner at it, but fun :viva: . (At the first level i recommend to use the Electrical Towers, Machinegun Turrets and Ray Towers) ;)

Came across this site that has old pictures from the early 1900's. The sites in Russian but if you hit ( Смотреть дальше... ) under each picture it will take you to more specific to that picture. Some of the best of these I've ever seen. Makes me really wish Dice would do a remake of BF42 with some of these pictures as map references.
