Have you had your fill of Balloon Boy yet? If not you might want to check out the Balloon Boy Game. Fly through the air while zapping birds, helicopters and even UFO’s as the infamous Balloon Boy while you rack up taxpayer debt. I know it’s horrible but I just had to play it for a few minutes.
This recipe was just an attempt at something new. A friend suggested I try frying canned green beans in a teaspoon of bacon grease. It’s awesome by the way. Those who would turn their noses up at the thought of using bacon grease in their cooking should probably stop reading now. This cooking blog is [...]
NASA crashed the LCROSS Moon rocket into the moon. The rocket crashed on the moon on October 9, 2009 in an attempt to find traces of water. The idea behind the rocket crashing into the moon is to create a plum of dust so it can be analyzed to determine if there is water vapor hidden among the debris.

The Iowa Hawkeyes have moved up from #11 to #7 this week. While it’s great to see them that high, I still feel the national media is disrespecting them.

It is speculated that since Yahoo has approximately 17 percent of the search engine market and is the second most popular search provider that Microsoft would not be able to compete with Google in the future if they did not acquire Yahoo. Even if Microsoft did acquire Yahoo the company would only have approximately 22 percent of the market. This figure still pails in comparison to Goggles 70 percent of the market share which is still growing. Unfortunately for Microsoft, Google’s market share is growing by taking away searches from Yahoo and Microsoft alike.
