  • Nerdiest Wedding? YOU DECIDE

    Gizmodo has the scoop on what could be the nerdiest wedding in the history of weddings. It is Star Wars themed, down to the Death Star disco ball, Stormtrooper bustier and the tables named for SW universe locations. [poll id=”14″]

  • Product Review: Mountain Dew Throwback

    As you may have heard, Pepsi has release Pepsi Throwback and Mountain Dew Throwback, versions of the drinks that make use of natural sugar instead of High Fructose Corn Syrup.

  • Lego Battlestar Galactica Madness

    This is just a fraction of the 35 Vipers and other BSG-themed Lego creations shown off at ‘BrickCon‘ last year. Gizmodo has an in-depth gallery in their post on the matter, and now I want one of these. I wonder if any of these guys has a parts list or build out there…

  • Show 'Em The Horn, Arthur

    Something a little different for you, after all the Bills/Sabres suckitude.

  • Woot-Off Fatigue

  • He Said The Raccoon Challenged Him

    For a change of pace, some bits from the Amherst Bee Police Blotter: A bouncer was sent to St. Joseph€™s Hospital after a fight at a George Urban Boulevard nightclub. A cell phone was found after the incident, and when the officer answered it after it rang, he was able to get the name and…
