In my opinion, the writers strike has left a trace of garbage amongst the new episodes of some of my favorite shows. Specifically, the serial dramas stuffed with symbolism and mystery. Since when did the writers of Lost think it was a good idea to drop in an A-Team episode? The only difference between the [...]

Curry in Ruby
Inspired by some currying examples in scheme, I wanted to try them in Ruby… def seq(oldfirst, keepold) lambda do |new, old, item, list| list.push(new) if old==item and !oldfirst list.push(item) if keepold or old != item list.push(new) if oldfirst and old==item end end def insertF(new, old, list, func) temp = [] list.each do |item| func.call new, [...]

NFL reinstates Odell… Question 1: Is my mind in the gutter or did Bengals.com really come up with a bad headline on this one? Question 2: Will he get his number back from Corey Mays?

3 Cheers for Sarcastic Gamer
http://sarcasticgamer.com They led a successful boycott against Battlefield: Bad Company. The game was going to sell weapons that were clearly developed before launch for an additional $10.

Chad Johnson Is On Crack
You heard it here first. Ok, so I’m joking, but you have to wonder what the deal is. Watch the video on this blog post: http://www.cincyjungle.com/story/2008/4/3/101544/6793 He makes no sense. ESPN loves this story because it gives them something to talk about until the draft. But they cut the interview off because it’s going nowhere. [...]
