What was invented in the 1980's, that is square and still around? Hint: It's a very useful item.(Note: I changed the heading (and the word created to invented) to see if there would be more guesses)

This just in…..(from MSNBC News on MSN.com: Link ) Burger King has introduced two new breakfast sandwiches that are “huge”. Huge? Huge breakfast food items? Fast food places are still serving bigger food? I thought they were “downsizing” their food choices so consumers can make better and healthier choices? I mean, let’s face it, every newspaper article, television programs, and all media, have been heralding how fat Americans are. There’s just no way that the CEO of Burger King ...
Do you have a phobia? How much do you know about fear? It is said that fear can be irrational, although to me, that depends on the point of view of the person experiencing the phobia they have.

The Akron Beacon Journal , stated that the word Wedgie has now been added to the Webster’s New World College Dictionary. I checked the Merriam Webster Dictionary; it has the w...

There’s a new guy in the building I work. I saw him for the second time this week. I said good morning to him, no response.

Food for some people is a public matter. The door is open for others to observe and look what is eaten. To see what’s act...

I won’t go into the details of the movie but at some point in the movie after a birthday celebration, he left to go home, he was drunk. While he was outside he saw this bright light in the sky and it suddenly came towards him and struck him, like being struck by lightning. W...
