      by Gordon McDowell

      When I first saw “An Inconvenient Truth”, I was touched deeply by Al Gore’s naivete. To bring science and facts to the global warming debate, is a bit like bringing a knife to a gunfight. Al, nice try. But the only way to fight stupid is with even more stupid. I’ll take over now.

    • Warped Tour 2006

      by Adrian Bryksa

      They blew the house down and I do not think there was a disappointed person leaving the speedway after their set. If you are a fan of punk, metal or aggressive music in general, you need to give Rise Against a chance.

      by MaxPower

    • springsix: electronic music utopia

      by R4NT

    • Date Movies: United 93 vs Hard Candy

      by Gordon McDowell

    • Auto Show 2006

    • Crom Vs. Canadian Club

      by Crom
