Bloodthirsty creatures await a pack of divers who become trapped in an underwater cave network.
sound a lot like 1982’s The Boogens?
The “Boogens” are scaly monsters that look somewhat like giant turtles with lots of […]

The daughter of a friend of mine is collecting soda can pull tabs. Other than the High School sexual reason to collect them, I’ve always thought it was an urban legend that collecting them does any good. Well, it turns out that that’s mostly true.
Some campaigns to collect them are actually real although they seem […]

A friend took me to a grocery store the other day that apparently was pretty popular in that neighborhood. It’s now going out of business and is selling off everything (including the fixtures and checkout machines) in the store during the last seven days it’s open.
The shelves were bizzarely barren in the store and there […]

I really dislike how most manuals for software are written. The problem is that they’re written to tell you How The Application Works, rather than How You Do Something & Why It Works That Way.
Telling me how the application, for example, makes a connection to a certain service, creates an account and then manages that […]
