Fridge broke again. You would think they would just replace it, but I guess their warehouse is full of crappy compressors. Sure hope the refridgerator doesn't accientally tip over and land on the repair guy's head while he's back there on Thursday because that would be a nightmare to clean up.

The Geek Squad (as in army of one) is here trying to fix the second refrigerator purchased from Best Best in the last 16 months. His first and only question after explaining how difficult this repair is going to be, was to ask if the floor in the kitchen was flammable.I told him I guess we'll find out soon... Snuck this pic, and left the room.I would suggest not buying a major appliance from Best

The audio from BNL's first concert as the Fantastic Four is now available: Download it for free until March 27! Some of the cuts are a little rough, as they admit to not having practiced much as a foursome but the new sound is GOOD. They did a lot of Steve songs surprisingly. While I will miss his voice, I really enjoyed the new angle that Jim Creegan and Kevin Hearn are putting on the music and

When empty suits talk where do their words come from? So who cares if the President can't speak without a teleprompter; it's just the sort of thing the media would be making fun of Bush for and it's nothing compared to our President's shakedown of the American taxpayer. Oh it may have a thing or two to say about how genuine or bright the speaker is, but we only voted for eloquence and a proper

It's clearly amateur hour in the White House. While you can't possibly blame Obama for this recession, you most certainly can blame his agenda for inspiring this kind of panic, further throwing us into the abyss. Federal expansion, higher taxes, trillions in spending, and an anti-capitalist agenda are scaring the hell out the market. This used to only mean 'the rich'. Today, even if you don't

Milk is a very good movie and no matter how much I would enjoy seeing someone club Sean Penn over the head with an Oscar, he's a pretty amazing actor and deserving of his praise as such. I vaguely remember some of the events and names from news footage in the past, but I really never knew this story before seeing the movie. I'm sure many will see a parallel between the events in Milk to the

From AP:TORONTO (AP) — Singer-guitarist Steven Page says he decided to leave the Barenaked Ladies because he felt that his contributions as a songwriter were being diminished.A day after he announced on the band's Web site that he was leaving the five-member group, Page said the Barenaked Ladies have so many songwriting voices, his was occasionally squeezed out."Frankly, the band itself was a
