Deep Thought

As I watched highlights of the Space Shuttle Discovery launch this morning, my first thought was a pretty typical “how cool is this.” But my second thought was “You know, there’s gotta be more than a few people out there somewhere who think the shuttle is named ‘Discovery’ because it’s sponsored by the Discovery Channel.” … Continue reading Deep Thought

The song was designed to be released bit by bit as … Continue reading Trapped in the Closet

She’s a pretty girl and all, but falls far short of that … Continue reading That’s Hot
