While driving around his ‘82 Volkswagon Rabbit, a Levittown man hit a crib at 10MPH, and now, his car is relatively wrecked. He’s trying to make $500 off the broken remains.

New TV Jobs in Philadelphia: Geekadelphia Demands Own Show
I imagine working on television is a lot like the show 30 Rock. Everyone is funny, cute, quirky, and you have a crazy boss that, despite his faults and how he insults, is sort of a good guy. Tim and I have always wanted our own television and/or web series, hence the start of our [...]

This absolutely wonderful Halo 3 t-shirt sports one of the finest sayings in the history of online gaming. It’s available in the classic Halo green coloring and will run you about $20 off Split Reason.

We’ve all seen the Spider-Man movies and if you haven’t, well, you should be reading this website. Seriously, what’s wrong with you? Maybe you’ve even read the comics, collected cards, or kept a life size cut-out of Peter Parker in your bedroom for those long lonely nights… *ahem* but I digress.
While fiddling around on [...]

Mario Kart Wii, Driving School, is coming to Philadelphia, and he is anxiously awaiting his chance to pwn [...]
Pizza.com: Purchased for 2.6 Million Dollars
You have got to be kidding me. $2.6 million dollars, for pizza.com? This sort of thing drives Tim and I into seriously dark depression, what with our Google Adsense kicking us a solid $0.06 cents a day or so.
A while back, Vodka.com sold for over $7 million.
Word on the street is that the domain [...]
