Hawks up 2-0

Posted: 31st May 2010 by T.F.P. in Sports

Man, that was another defibrillator game over at the UC tonight!! The Hawks scored two goals 28 seconds apart in the second period, then held off a frantic Philadelphia attack seemingly all throughout the third in order to come away with a 2-1 victory in Game 2. Now Chicago is up 2-0 in the series, [...]

4-Way iPod Charging Kit

Posted: 30th May 2010 by T.F.P. in Products

Like most people, I absolutely love my iPod and iPhone. These are devices that I use more than any other, the ones I simply cannot leave home without. But neither have terrific battery life, which is why I always have to be aware of how much juice is left before I go out. This is [...]

What happened to RC?

What happened to Ricky Carmichael??? The former MX and SX champion used to be known for his legendary training regimen that allowed him to become the winningest rider of all-time (both sports combined, I mean) when he was on the circuit.

Man, Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals cannot get here fast enough!!! The Hawks haven’t played since Sunday night, but it feels like they’ve been off for two weeks already. I thought the series should have started tonight, but whatever. I guess the NHL is trying to build things up with media days like [...]

I love gadgets, so I’m always coming across interesting products that instantly go on a mental “wish list” of things to buy when I have some extra cash. This Aluratek USB Internet Radio Jukebox certainly fits that description! The USB Internet Radio Jukebox is exactly what the name implies. It looks like a regular USB [...]

Venus Williams’ French Open outfit

Posted: 27th May 2010 by T.F.P. in Sports

Have you seen Venus Wiliams’ French Open outfit? In this AP photo, she looks like she’s wearing something for the bedroom, not something for the middle of the day at Roland Garros. Granted, this tournament is not nearly as stuffy or as stringent about outfits as Wimbledon, but still…. I would never wear something like [...]

Bieber Mania

Posted: 26th May 2010 by T.F.P. in Entertainment

It’s practically impossible to get on Twitter, Facebook, or Google without seeing Justin Bieber’s name come up. He’s almost always a “trending topic” or “hot search” or whatever, and though I’d never heard of him before, seeing his name in all these different places made me want to at least find out what the fuss [...]
