More yoyo badassery

Though not as cool as two yoyos at once, freehand yoyo ("a weight (typically a casino die or small ball) is attached to the end of the yo-yo string that would otherwise be attached to the finger.")is pretty badass

"Tyler Severance nails the freehand (5A) world yoyo champion champion title with a technically challenge and exciting counterweight freestyle."

Battle at Kruger

The most epic battle you'll see today (I recommend turning down the sound... the running commentary by the tourists queahs it up).

The Dark Knight

Here's the latest trailer for The Dark Knight, the sequel to Batman Begins which was, arguably, the greatest batman flick ever. Right, right, Keaton and Nicholson, yeah, yeah, that shit was badass, no doubt. But if you've dug the Bale version of ol' Batman, this new one seems like it won't disappoint.

Carl on the Mitchell Report

Let he who hasn't injected the extract from a grizzly bear's pituitary gland straight into his bellybutton cast the first stone.

M4 Carbine performs "significantly worse" than contenders in a recent test.

The army's response? "Nah, we'll keep this one." The winner? This sci-fi badass.

As cool as this shit could possibly get...

Paul's Tea Party

Ron Paul has the largest fundraising day in political history. Yesterday's $6,000,000 haul puts his campaign at over $18,000,000 in donations for the fourth-quarter of the year (with two weeks remaining).

Power of the Pussy Rangers NSFW

You've got a handycam and some willing participants, why the hell not?

Telecom Immunity Update

Harry Reid has announced that he will be moving the Senate Intelligence Committee's version of the FISA bill to the floor of the Senate. This bill contains provisions for immunity for telecommunications companies that aided the government in warrantless surveillance. Reid has acted in this manner despite a hold placed on the bill by Senator Chris Dodd - a somewhat unprecedented move.

Fuck Harry Reid.

Not exactly a new idea. Still pretty cool

Robots!

I have a strange family

Thought those of you that know my family might get a kick out of this. I couldn't stop laughing for twenty minutes after this mainly because of Jason.

All kinds of badassery

The camera angles help, but this shit is still fucking incredible.
