Everyone wants to be Bode Miller. Sadly, the only way to truly become Bode Miller is to either wear his skin as a suit like Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs or just buy an expensive pair of skis.

Sure, toasting images on to bread is fun, but not nearly as fun as a friendly game of Tic-Tac-Toe. The Tic Tac ...

Traffic lights are an annoying but needed accessory to our daily life.
