Where are the hipsters in Athens?

No way the Athens hipsters trump ATL, live there and you'll see what I'm saying. I think the hipsters lie dormant in select areas downtown. It's like the more westside of downtown gets all the more hipster, along the "Lumpkin-line" you get townies, and the farther east you go the more greek (and gross-literally, look out for the puke) it gets.

It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a...tacocopter?

That would be so awesome! I wonder how they'd get it from the helicopter to the ground though? It's like a taco stork!

"Frozen Planet" premieres on Discovery!

Yeah super cool! Too bad we've got 80 degree weather in March.. But that's probably just a natural fluctuation in the climate

Winter backpacking advice?

Thanks guys! I really appreciate the advice. I've got lots of warm clothes, a zero degree sleeping bag, and plenty of merino wool Smile I most definitelty trust the people I'm traveling with and love that I won't have to mentally prepare for any crowds! Thanks again for the advice, I'll let you know how it goes!

Rihanna and Chris Brown: Together again?

My guess is they're collaborating to get media attention and revel in the millions they make off of our interest in their personal lives. It's sad though that domestic abuse is why we are interested in the couple and I'm curious as to the message being sent to children. What happens when the Rihanna/Chris Brown songs start coming on the radio (which will inevitably happen)..? What is the message being sent out about domestic violence? That it's not really that big of a deal? That it's something that can simply be pushed under a rug all in the name of a catchy song. Just wait, I bet they'll be singing along, and that's a scary, scary thing.

Chocolate and relationships: A new way of looking at the two

How childish. You know if you could present a clear, compelling, rational argument against any of the article I just posted you'd sound a lot smarter, which is what I'm guessing you're trying to do my referencing the "valley girls". So smarty pants, do me a favor and form one before you call me like totally mean names!

Escape the Winter Blues

Or perhaps you can embrace the cold! Bundle up and try and make the best of it! I think it was Bob Marley that said "Some people feel the rain, others just get wet".

Favorite reading place in Athens?

There is a tree right beside the Law library on UGA's campus (like heading towards Herty field) that is perfect to sit by on nice days! If not there, I enjoy a hammock just about anywhere.

Why He Quit Facebook.

I love this! I have been Facebook free for almost a year now and I think it's a totally healthy thing. Interpersonal communication is an important thing!

It is illogical to invest in nuclear power

Absolutely! Wind turbines 10,000 years from now? Probably not radioactive..

Need more ways to save money? Strategical tips to use at dollar stores

Dollar stores sound like a really good money saving idea! Where are some good ones in Athens?

Can Gingrich stand up as the socially conservative candidate?

Definitely an interesting point! If Gingrich will be the voice for social conservatives what of the new allegations that surfaced from his second wife about him asking her for an "open-marriage". Asking to have a mistress doesn't seem socially conservative to me, just saying...

Would you gain weight for a movie role?

Absolutely not! I think Joel's point is on point, I'd choose health over money any day.

Getting to the bottom line of what vitamins really do for you

I've heard juicing (as in blending up fruits and veggies) does wonders for you! Apparently it helps so much because your body doesn't have to take the time to break down the food (or vitamin) so all of the nutrients are absorbed quickly and efficiently! Something to keep in mind!

What's up with The Loft?

The Loft the bar. Sorry, should have specified!

The Hunger Games: from book to theater

The movies can be totally disappointing sometimes! The last movie that didn't live up to the book I saw was The Rum Diary. It was good until about halfway through when they took the stereotypical, acid-eating Hunter S. Thompson from Fear and Loathing and inserted him into the plot. There were no hallucinogens in the book. I was definitely disappointed. Sad

Italian Mac and Cheese

Looks delicious! I'm definitely trying this soon.

    Why doesn't the ATM want my card?

    Summary:  Over the past few weeks I've noticed a change to the ATM I visit on West Broad in front of Five Guys. It's a Bank of America ATM and the main reason I like it is because there is only a $2 fee to use it.   Over the past few weeks I've noticed a change to the ATM I visit on West Broad in front of Five Guys. It's a Bank of America ATM and the main reason I like it is because there is only a $2 fee to use it. The last few times I visited the ATM, I put my card in the slot and the ATM immediatley gave me the card back.  I was a little alarmed at first and tried to put the card back in but the screen prompted me to input my PIN number instead. I was able to complete my transaction but it threw me out of my comfort zone. read more
