Shyster's thread of Spaaaace.

What is even more amazing is on the free fall to Earth, there is enough unspent fuel to slow them to a manageable level to actually land safely.

Got a little tray of chicken liver mouse from Trader Joes. The packing said it contained aspec (sp)? I am guessing the layer of gel on the top that keeps it fresh is aspec? Is it just some kind of gelatin?

I'll bet that dude with that sign gets more $$$ is a single day than some other dude that is just holding up a generic 'need money - God bless you' sign per day.

Motorsports (non-NASCAR)

The NHRA begins the season February 8th, back in Pomona. The season will be shortened one weekend due to the news that Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in Englishtown, N.J., stopped all race operations. Rumor is that the demand for housing in the area is too high to keep the track operating. 49 year...

A Slice of Cheese

Our small town didn't have anything remotely resembling a deli, so, no.

Growing up meant Chef Boyardee pizza out of the box with sprinkle cheese and my mom would buy a chunk of cheddar to shred if we were good. Best Pizza to this day, hands down!

I, Tonya wasn’t bad. Really good performances all around but I didn’t find myself all that invested in the story. I had a similar reaction. It's tough when so much of the emotional impact hinges on a complete subscription to everything that comes from the Tonya character/perspective, while the whol...

From the parking lot, because this fresh. The kids are fast. They need guidance as to playing a team way out west. Jarry has been thrust into a team making the playoffs or not. He is a keeper. Tristan earned his plane ride back. And then some. Very humble. Hagelin still has speed. So what? Rocket Is...

home theater, cord cutting, video streaming, a/v tech, and more!

Boxing up old electronics gear for an upcoming move, I discovered the last DVR we had from DirecTv. There are some old hockey games and concerts that were recorded that I would love to watch again, but when I plug it in, it goes straight into setup mode and starts looking for a satellite. Being that...

Watched Battle of the Sexes over the weekend. Bobby Riggs Vs. Billie Jean King. Entertaining movie, but after reading up on the real events that lead up to the match, the wife and I agree that it ventured more into the secret personal love life of Billie Jean than focusing on the story of the strugg...

The Coyotes vs Rangers OT game last night was interesting once it went to OT. 3 on 3 to start, the 'Yotes just played a game of keep away. They cycled the puck, passed back and forth and really took the game to slow as snails pace. Once the Rangers got the puck, they turned up the tempo and started ...
