Declutter Your Home with the Suitcase Test [Clutter] (9)
on
Lifehacker (307) permalink
A life cluttered with possessions is such a common state of affairs that George Carlin once based a well received comedy routine around the absurdity of the accumulation of material goods. Over at the financial blog The Simple Dollar, Trent decided to stare down his pile of goods through the belly of a suitcase. What if he needed to move on with his life with nothing more than a suitcase to haul his loot? What ...Shared by ax0n (24) Charles (9) DanielElsaesser (5) jtokash (12) Kate O' (0) Mick (3) Santa (1) The Lewis Show (4) Todd Albertson (9)- ax0n said: I'm gonna need a huge ****ing suitcase.

On Monday James and I are going to see Bruce Campbell...in person...for real. This is unbelievably exciting for so many reasons. Bruce Campbell is probably best known for the Evil Dead movies. He's sort of like the king of b-movies... but maybe more like the king of camp. If you've never seen the Evil Dead movies (I know - not everyone is into campy horror) you might have seen him in the Old Spice commercials ...Shared by Charles (9)Contribute comment -

Roger Ebert on the Death of the Film Critic (8)
on
/Film (6) permalink
Pulitzer Prize winning movie critic Roger Ebert has written a passionate response to what some are calling the demise of the film critic, or what Ebert is calling “the death of an intelligent and curious, readership”. The whole thing was sparked when the Associate Press imposed a 500-word limited on movie reviews and interviews. I wouldn’t want to read a serious review of There Will Be Blood, or Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind under ...Shared by Aaron (0) AC Valentine (4) Charles (9) hoosteen (0) Mark Trapp (13) Michael O (0) Rtaylor32 (0) Shannon (1)- hoosteen said: ah yes that "good old fashion storytelling" >_< i love you /film but stop helping

Today is my birthday. While you’re surfing mentalfloss.com, I’m home celebrating with single-malt scotch and Rock Band. Wish you were here. In honor of my special day, here’s the science behind the trick in trick candles, which I really hope aren’t part of today’s festivities, for they are cruel and unusual and prolong the wait for delicious cake. A lit candle wick melts the paraffin wax near it, absorbs the liquid wax, and pulls it ...Contribute comment - [Sick] Store refuses to pay worker's comp to family after employee is murdered at work for being black.

The Pin Clock Makes Watching Time Tick by Fun [Stuff We Like] (64)

A big part of staying productive is keeping track of time, how much and on what you spend it—so why not make glancing at the clock as fun as possible?

You hear the same phrases every Thanksgiving. “Please pass the gravy.” “Actually, can I have the gravy again? I missed a spot.” And “Ugh, why do we have to watch the Lions play again this year?” Every year since 1934, the Detroit Lions have taken the field for a Thanksgiving game, no matter how bad their record has been.
