Black holes, warp drives and alien invasions →
I was pretty sure this theory had been around for a while, but apparently a new study is suggesting that black holes may actually be wormholes leading to entirely new universes. Of course, this being an astronomy and physics theory, there’s little consensus on the validity of the results. Assuming it’s true, maybe we should be thinking about building a warp drive to get us to the...

White Mountain Creamery (5/5)
While driving up Nicholson Lane late a few nights ago, I had a late evening ice cream craving. I remembered a great place just over the hill and to the right. I made the move. It was gone. Not closed. Empty. Out of business!
A sad day in ice cream history for sure. (via Shawn H. on Yelp)

Taipei Tokyo Cafe 1 (3/5)
As a sushi review, only three stars. Convenience would be four. The “Chinese” food? four stars also, but I almost always get the sushi. It’s not the best sushi. They mass make the rolls as the lunch hour progresses because of the half price lunch roll deal (best sushi deal in town). It’s a step above grocery store sushi (Whole Foods) but nothing like Uni, Tako or Sushi...
Dry Clean Expo (4/5)
You can tell these people care about what they’re doing. That’s important to me when people are taking care of the clothes I wear. I’ve been using Dry Clean Expo almost exclusively for almost five years now. The few times I have tried other cleaners that seemed more convenient have all been short lived due to poor service or lack of concern over damaged or improperly cleaned...

GMAIL HACK - How to use gmail and filter spam for... →
The other day, I was getting so tired of so much spam on my zedomax mail account. So I researched some online email boxes including Google’s Gmail, Yahoo mail, and some others. If found that GMail indeed does pretty good with spams. If they have the algorithm to filter out link farms and bogus spam sites, they must be able to spam my emails too. Anyway here’s some simple steps for using gmail to...

Wordpress Theme Generator →
Wordpress Theme Generator: There used to be some very good ones out there but they seem to have dropped out of favor. This new one offers such conveniences as instant previews, lots of layout, color and gradient settings, custom header graphics and download of individual files as well as a neatly packaged zip. This could be a good starting point for Wordpress bloggers who want to play around with...
