In most states, the local utility company will come to your house for free, inspect the house, and let you know the best ways to save energy and money. I just did this through Georgia Power (click here or call … Continue reading →

It’s still an hour to go, but congratulations Red Sox. Makes me wish I liked baseball! The NFL needs a mercy rule. That fourth quarter was barely fun to watch. I watched anyhow of course. Forget the Super Bowl, the … Continue reading →

In the 2004 election, St. Louis Archbishop Raymond Burke publicly declared that communion should not be granted to John Kerry. I thought is was an appalling thing to do. For an archbishop to insert himself into the presidential race was … Continue reading →

I went to Technorati for the first time today. This is the site that technical types use to keep the pulse of the blogosphere. It let’s you see which blogs are popular, rising fast, most linked, etc. It gives a … Continue reading →

Possibly my favorite Muttrox blog post/argument ever was about correct pizza orientation. You must read this article, I just love the way this guy thinks.

This machine is evil. This whole article just scared the living bejeezus out of me. A square transmitter as big as a plasma TV screen is mounted on the back of a Jeep. When turned on, it emits an invisible, … Continue reading →
