All cultures are not created equal

Actually, this one is a combination of culture and religion. Nazir Ahmed appears calm and unrepentant as he recounts how he slit the throats of his three young daughters and their 25-year old stepsister to salvage his family's "honor" -- a crime that shocked Pakistan. The 40-year old laborer, speaking to The Associated Press in […]

This just in

Videogames are not the same as real life. Follow the link for an amusing video of an older gamer discovering that just because you can do a lap a Laguna Seca in an Acura NSX in 1:41 in a video game doesn't mean that you can do the same thing in real life.
