Watching the HBO documentary by Edward Norton(Tyler Durden) on the Barack Obama election. Pretty awesome to relive the election, and infuriating at the same time. It makes you really question how he can trust Hillary. If you have the ability, watch this documentary. What I have taken from it is that the Obama campaign always planned for what they called the doomsday scenario, or the primaries going...

At a young age he excelled in mathematics and physics, leading to his work from the ages of 16 to 20 on the Manhattan...

I’m tempted to call Gov’t Mule one of my guilty pleasures. The thing is, there is really nothing to feel guilty about. Their last album, High and Mighty (2006), was my favorite hard rock album of that year, and the new one, By a Thread (Evil Teen Records), is likely to hold the same position [...]
