Listener submission

Boris,
I paid $85 a ticket, $7.50 for a bottle of water and this was my view for 3 hours!!!

Life is worth living again - Lost returns on 1/21

I am a "Lost" nerd. I have been studing the DVD's for the past 6 months. I have theories on where the island is, why Widmore and Ben hate each other and am still looking for proof that Claire is actually dead. But mostly, I want to see Kate in a bathing suit again.

Polar Bear swim turns into a brawl

You know those Polar Bear Club idiots who jump into freezing cold water on January 1st? This year things got a little out of hand when a fight broke out after the swim. These Polar Bear people only have a few brain cells to begin with, so I guess the rest froze up during the swim. Come on, you know you're not thinking right when you pick a fight with a guy wearing a pink boa!

A robot that pours beer

I don't understand one thing this guy is saying about robotics. I also don't understand how it's easier to tilt your iphone to pour a beer instead of tilting a beer bottle. I do give the guy credit, however, for having some tasty beers on hand (3 Philosophers!)... and a wife who appreciates good beer!

Fun company to work for

A friend of mine posted this video on his Facebook page. The whole office decided to spend the afternoon drinking some beers and lip-syncing to Harvey Danger's "Flagpole Sitta". People think working in radio is a fun job... but we would never be allowed to spend an afternoon doing this. I should have listened to my professors at college and gotten a real job.

Enjoy your 2009 glasses... it's the end of an era!

Thinking about New Year's Eve, I couldn't help but wonder what will happen to those stupid 200_ glasses that everyone has been wearing for the past 10 years. 2009 marks the last year that has 00 right in the middle - perfect for a pair of bloodshot eyes that have seen one too many Jägerbombs.

As I was Googling for a photo to go with my ramblings, I came across this article about how the guys who invented those glasses (someone actually invented these?) are now going out of business.
