What ever happened to turning the other cheek? This is so bizarre. Why is a 27-year-old man playing dodge ball with teenagers? Why were they playing dodge ball to begin with? Were they practicing their stoning techniques?

This year's men's NCAA tournament had to be the most unpredictable ever. This is the first time since 1980, no number one seed made it to the final four. George Mason is the first 11th seed to make it since 1986. None of the final four teams were expected to be there. Now you know why I don't bet on sports.

Looks like it's time to buy stock in ark building. Learning to steer a gondola might also be helpful if you live on the coast. There's also the option to grow gills.

We were watching the news a couple of days ago and they were showing surveillance video of a crime in progress. The image of the suspect was so poor that the only thing you could determine was that he was African American. If you really want to use video to assist in the arrest of criminals, why buy the cheapest system out there?

Fox begins airing new episodes of "Prison Break" tonight. I don't plan to watch since I forgot the show even existed. I guess I'll never know if they get out of prison or not. I don't understand why the networks insist on taking shows off the air at mid-season only to bring them back later.

The next big thing doesn't exist according to IBM's Nicholas Donofrio. It's hard to discount the source, but I hope he's wrong. I'm still waiting for my jet pack, flying car and house on the moon.

It looks like Bay County officials have some explaining to do after a second autopsy found that a 14-year-old boy did not die of complications due to a blood disease. The boy died a day after he was beaten and kicked by guards at a boot camp. I think the Bay County medical examiner might want to find a good attorney right about now.

Here's Homer's dream come true (except for the beer being flat)! Now can someone tell me why beer is so expensive in Norway?

OK, this is getting ridiculous. I haven't read the book but from everything I've heard, all the evidence backing these allegations are nothing more than hearsay. It's possible and perhaps even likely that Barry did use something, but he's never tested positive. Yet some of these guys are taking it for granted that he did cheat.
