What a bizarre headline, no?
Turns out, that is just exactly what happened.
This girl gets in a car wreck, then needs surgery to reduce bleeding on her brain, so almost half of her skull is removed.
But, sometime between the time it is removed and the time when it needs to be ...

My dad drives truck, and I was weaned on country music. During the heady '70's, C.W. McCall became a favorite of Dad's, and by extension, mine.
<Cliff Clavin> A little known fact is that "C.W. McCall" is really the name of the group, a la Jethro Tull. The "persona" ...

When I was in Elementary school, our janitor had a sign in his small closet that read:
I deal in dirt, but treat you clean.
For some reason, that quote stuck with me.

It's not often that I endorse a product, but I have to let you know that Mozilla Firefox is possibly the best browser around, especially if you are stuck using Internet Exploder.
Hardly a week goes by without some security flaw being exposed in IE, not to mention the amount of ...

Have you ever had a moment when you are pondering some point, and all the pieces fall into place with an almost-audible 'click' and the flash of insight almost blinds you?
The answer is right there in front of you, and it was so damned easy to come up with. ...

This reminds me of an old joke:
A Montanan and a North Dakotan (substitute your own pairing here) are sitting in a bar watching the newscast. A story comes on showing a man standing on the ledge of a building, obviously contemplating whether or not to jump.
The Montanan leans over ...

It's kind of like that old joke about how "I Am My Own Grandpa."
A member of Utah's polygamous Kingston clan was sentenced Monday to a year in prison for taking a 15-year-old cousin -- who was also his aunt -- as his wife.

So, a couple finds some porn on a PG movie, after the credits were done.
This raises two questions in my mind.
