n Linchpins and Tribe LeadersThe “Not My Fault” Culture
Aug 28th
The scene unfolds very quickly as one reckless driver doesn’t stop at… a stop sign and hits a car who was passing through the intersection. In his defense he did brake after seeing the other car. Damages are somewhat minimal: the right fender for the victim, the front bumper for the aggressor. Not really a [...]

Jul 15th
When I saw the big Jesus on the t shirt of a guy at the gym I thought to myself: he must be one of those hardcore Christians than everybody in the US has grown to accept. Still had a slightly WTF feeling, but you cannot really question the beliefs of a hardcore Christian, can [...]

Jun 21st
Does the name Edward Payson Weston say anything to you? I thought so. Well, this gentleman who lived between 1839-1929 is responsible for some feats that are simply remarkable.

Lately I have been having some mild pain in my right hip and I went to have it looked [...]
