Building a Death Star
I’ve always wondered how much it would cost to build a Death Star, as well as how much metal is needed to build a moon-like, planet-destroying space station. Luckily the folks at Centives saved me some valuable hours of my life to do the mathematics and figure it out. According to the web site, it [...]
Top 10 Movies of 2011
This is my list of the best movies I saw in 2011. I am not a movie critic (Oscar’s list has waaaay more clout). I am just an average guy who likes to critique and enjoy movies each and every year, and then complain like every other Christopher Nolan lover how he is not even [...]
The Unsung Hero of Innovative Technolodgy
A man once quoted as saying, “Apple was the last innovative high-volume computer maker in the world” at a time when Apple lost 816 million dollars. The person with the foresight to begin ridding computers of floppy drives and rely on USB technology not yet widely accepted by the mass market. With an eight-month timetable, [...]
Hugo, The Artist Dominate Academy Award Nominations

Martin Scorsese’s Hugo leads all films with 11 nominations, and the black-and-white silent film, The Artist, earned 10 nods. Both movies are in the race for Best Picture, along with War Horse, Midnight in [...]

Cotton Bowl: 8 Kansas State vs. 6 Arkansas
Kansas State is one of the surprise teams of the year and deserves a lot of credit from where they have been. Kansas State does have flaws. They tend to not do well against spread pass teams. Oklahoma and Oklahoma St each scored over 45 points each and almost 700 yards given up against Oklahoma [...]
Orange Bowl: 23 West Virginia vs. 15 Clemson
Healthy Sammy Watkins and a confident Tahj Boyd will be the difference in this game. West Viriginia just lost one of their running backs to MCL and ACL tear, so I will pick Clemson because they will stop the run and control the clock. Prediction: Clemson 38 West Virginia 24 Results: West Virginia 70 Clemson [...]
Sugar Bowl: 13 Michigan vs. 11 Virginia Tech
Yes, I am a Michigan fan…Yes, I am biased, but I will keep my biases to a minimum…Michigan wins. Prediction: Michigan 34 Virginia Tech 31 Results: Michigan 23 Virginia Tech 20 F/OT W: 18-12
Fiesta Bowl: 4 Stanford vs. 3 Oklahoma State
Stanford has Luck, Oklahoma St. doesn’t. Does that mean Oklahoma St. won’t win? Power vs. Spread. I picked Wisconsin over Oregon, but this time I am picking Oklahoma St. because they are motivated to prove everyone wrong. If Oklahoma St. was a traditional power I wouldn’t make that pick, but Oklahoma St. has nothing to lose. Stanford hasn’t [...]
Rose Bowl: 10 Wisconsin vs. 5 Oregon
This game will be all offense. Power vs. Spread. Wisconsin are a bunch a fat asses, and man those fuckers can block. Oregon are a bunch of barn burners and they will wear you out with speed. If Wisconsin can hold on to the ball and close to 40 minutes I think Wisconsin wins in [...]
Gator Bowl: Ohio State vs. Florida
I don’t have much positive to say. Both Florida and Ohio State have solid defenses, but Braxton Miller will be the difference in this game. Fuck Florida. Fuck Ohio State. Florida, go back to the Spurrier times. Fuck Urban Meyer. I pick OSU. Prediction: Ohio State 28 Florida 24 Results: Florida 24 Ohio State 17 [...]
Capital One Bowl: 20 Nebraska vs. 9 South Carolina
South Carolina has been pretty impressive this year even after losing Lattimore and Garcia. I am very impressed with South Carolina’s defense and Nebraska this year has been and up and down team. So, I pick South Carolina and their defense. Prediction: South Carolina 24 Nebraska 17 Results: South Carolina 30 Nebraska 13 W: 16-10 [...]
Outback Bowl: 17 Michigan State vs. 16 Georgia
This is going to be a great game. Two solid quarterbacks. Two good defenses. This is a coin flip, but this is a different Michigan State team. Usually, I would say that since Michigan State doesn’t want to be there and it seems they feel they should be BCS bound and just come in sluggish, [...]
Ticketcity Bowl: 19 Houston vs. 22 Penn State
I’m not going to get into “Rape Gate”, I’m just going to talk football. Houston does not do well against teams with a good pass rush and Penn State does not do well against the spread. Penn State will pressure Houston and will cause Keenum to turn the ball over. Houston really does not seem [...]
