Commented on People over 55 dream in black and white?
I'm skeptical about the theory, but it is interesting. Well, I'm not over 55 (I turn the magic 42 later this year), but my family didn't get a color telly 'til I was about 11 or 12. I don't think...

Commented on A message to our readers about coverage of you-know-who
Wahh, too much coverage of Apple, it must be like 80%, er 40%. What? 11%? Well, Wahh, they're all Apple-worshipping, and everyone knows Apple is only for fags, er I mean hipsters. What? There are posts that criticise or spoof...

Commented on HOWTO Make a perfect cup of coffee -- the science of ferocious black madness
I don't drink coffee, I think it's nasty, bitter, acidic stuff, and I much prefer tea. That does NOT mean I don't find articles like this fascinating, however. It brings together tech, DIY, chemistry, physics, and more. PLEASE continue to...

Commented on A visit to Casa Bonita restaurant in Denver
Heh! Yes, it's all true! Ever since the Rainforest Cafe in Cherry Creek closed down a few years back, Casa Bonita is pretty much the only place left in the Denver area for a truly kitschy dining experience. It's good...

Commented on Funny Will Elder photo
Wow, this looked immediately familiar. I wonder if the angel mural/mascot of the famous Sink restaurant in Boulder Colorado was influenced by this 1939 Will Elder photo art? http://www.thesink.com/...

nooz commented on A visit to Casa Bonita restaurant in Denver
The last time I ate at the Casa Bonita was in 1978. I was a long haired hippy boy on my big adventure. We smoked a bunch of pot on the way to the restaurant. I had the munchies so bad I would have eaten shoe leather. I remember that the food was absolutely delicious but looking at the picture of this guys chicken plate reminds me that it probably isnt so great. It probably wasnt so great when I went their in the 70s but I had no reference for mexican food other than tacos up to that point....
scottw22 commented on A visit to Casa Bonita restaurant in Denver
I ate at the Tulsa Casa Bonita just today. And yes the ripping reviews are fair. The food tastes like a microwave dinner that has sat under a heating lamp all day. The place reeks of nearly 40 years of cheap floor cleaner and the once cool decor is all falling apart. I'm sure it's mostly nostalgia that powers that rare desire to eat there but from time to time that desire manifests itself intensely. It was always a very special treat as a kid to eat there and I hope it remains a special treat for years to come....
TMobile commented on Crayola keyboard and mouse
This looks exactly like the Clevy keyboard that is being marketed for $99 to the educational and special needs communities. And even at $99 it's sold out and backordered on some websites. So, bravo to Crayola!!...
Rich Keller commented on People over 55 dream in black and white?
Sometimes I'll dream in third person and my dreams are always in color. I had a third person dream like that last night. The new thing for me is dreams heavily influenced by Second Life. I've had dreams with people flying around in the background like avatars and with having to wait for objects to rez. I need to spend more time outside, apparently....
