You or someone you love has probably faced a Snood addiction problem at some point in their life. It’s the weird game where you shoot grimacing monster faces at similar colored monster faces, knocking them all down before the ceiling collapses on you. Personally, I don’t like it all that much but I know a…

I was leading for about half of this month’s GameShow until my phrase completion skills completely ran out. I thought “rug” would be the most common word to complete _____ burn. Only 7/58 agreed and now I’m in 4th place.

I don’t think I’m a bad speller, but there are certain words I look up every time I use. Are there two r’s? Are there two c’s? Do I keep the e when I add able to the end? These are the top five words I can’t remember how to spell. Don’t be surprised if…

I’m a big fan of Penny Arcade, but most of their humor doesn’t have wide appeal. This brilliant comic does. My favorite part is that Jesus says, “Oh shits!”

I’ll admit, I sort of like Tegan and Sara’s Walking with a Ghost, but I have to give it up to Pitchfork’s Marc Hogan (not to be confused with the smart brother on the Hogan Family) for murdering it with such style.The first single from So Jealous, “Walking With a Ghost”, sounds like one of…

Some guy recreated a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon.

This is your last chance to join One Shot is Not Enough, the next game of Odd Man In. It starts in about 2 hours! The game has begun!

Happy birthday to my wonderful wife, even if it is supposedly the worst day of the year.

As everyone knows this is the Eagles’ 4th NFC Championship game in 4 years. A loss today would be a huge failure. Good thing the Falcons suck. Update: Woooooo! Update #2: This Eagles song is hilarious.

Being snowed in today, I added two new Odd Man In stats. The first one ranks the players who have been shot the most times in one round. The second one ranks the players who have been shot the most times in a single game.

Mr Orange, aka rexfelis, was the last man standing of OMI 2005. He beat out Mr Black (Elgin) and Mr Salmon (Sandusky) in the final three. I was Mr Forest this game and I played horribly. I made a failed attempt to stab Mr Royal (blakey) in the back and then asked Mr Emerald (big-a)…

I stupidly clicked the wrong thing and started up One Shot is Not Enough, the next game of Odd Man In. I put it back in the “forming” category and everyone will be reassigned a color when the game starts.

I’d like to announce the opening of the Odd Man In Message Board. It’s so you guys can suggest features, discuss strategies, complain about problems, etc. I imported the users from PostNuke so your username and password should work.

The current Odd Man In game, titled OMI 2005, has reached the final three! Mr Salmon, Mr Black and Mr Orange must now engage in a shootout where they die from an ODD number of shots. With 12 points, Mr Salmon has the advantage but there are many possible combinations, including one where everyone dies.…

After a taking a break for a few months, Tina and Randy over at the Tree House coffeeshop decided to bring back the open mic on February 2nd with a few changes. The super talented Johnny Miles will be hosting the show and it will run from 7:00PM – 9:00PM on Wednesdays. You can sign…

Sorry for the horrible headline, but this story is unbelievable. Richard Hatch, winner of the first Survivor, won a million dollars in front of 58 million viewers and didn’t report it on his 2000 tax return. Federal prosecutors charged that Hatch, 43, failed to report his $1.01 million winnings from the CBS show, and did…

This game of Odd Man In seems to be going well. It’s down to the final 11 and we should see a winner by early next week. I recently fixed some minor bugs here and there and I added the ability to view the last 50, 75 and 100 messages. I have lots of features…

I thought Arkanoid was the Citizen Kane of Breakout clones until I played Breakquest. It’s amazing. The demo has 4 awesome levels that you have to try.
