The Eagles have released a new studio album. In a move that follows a trend from several major artists they are releasing the album (a two disc set) exclusively at Wal*Mart. No major label, no big contracts, and therefore no fees to pay.
The album has 20 songs on two discs and is selling for $11.88. [...]
I wrote about my iPod in an earlier post. A few days ago I learned about another smart thing that Apple did when putting the unit together. If you remove the headphones, it turns itself off to conserve battery power. How smart is that?
I assume that this is not true if it’s docked somewhere. But [...]
Last night Boston College pulled off an improbable comeback victory over Virginia Tech. With less than 3 minutes to go VT was leading the game 10-0. BC managed to score a touchdown with 2:11 left on the clock. They recovered the kickoff and scored again with only seconds left on the clock to win 14-10 [...]
I enjoy taking people to lunch in my car. When they get in I ask if they want a ride to lunch, or if they want “A Ride ” to lunch. I don’t want to scare someone. Unless they ask for it.

That would be LSU beating Auburn for those that are curious. It was a game that certainly lived up to its advance billing. Auburn played extremely well in a tough environment. LSU played well enough to win in the end. Now if LSU can take out Alabama next week we’ll be in excellent [...]
It has been a while, but I got a Corvette Wave from a C6 on the way in to work this morning. Very cool.
It seems the answer is “Yes.” Not too long ago planet searchers have discovered something they gave the unlikely name of TrES-4. This planet is a gas giant like Jupiter. In fact it has five times the volume of our nearby neighbor. However the mass (as determined by the planet’s interaction with its sun) has [...]
Not too long ago I called the away game at Kentucky as one of the bigger tests of the LSU Tigers this season. It appears that not only was it a test, it was a decent mid-term exam. The Tigers didn’t exactly fail (even with the loss) but they did show they have some work [...]
I have read some really bizarre ideas about how to combat global warming. But just the other day I heard something on the radio that was too outlandish to be true. Or so I thought. It seems that the US government (among others, including Japan) has been experimenting with ways to bury carbon dioxide instead [...]
I think we finally learned something about this LSU team. They can play as #1 (first time in decades). They can beat a good team. They can come from behind. According to the AP poll they are a unanimous choice for #1. But are they capable of running the table at this point?
