Springfield church offers “Nightmare” as Halloween alternative

I found this link to this article on Fark.com and it reminded me of a church where I live that does this same thing. The church in our area has been doing a haunted house like this for many many years. I think people go, but I am not sure as I don’t go and I don’t go to church either. We almost went one time not knowing what it was, we just thought it was a regular haunted house, then we got to the door and there were cards talking about abortion and drugs and such, and my mom asked for her money back and we left. I think that this idea is pretty crazy, but leave it up to the churches to do crazy stuff. They certainly know how.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre Videos

Here’s a small collection (only 2) of Texas Chainsaw Massacre videos I pulled from GooTube. As you can see from these videos there are two cool videos that have come out and they are movies that are scary and you should see them if you have not yet, especially with Halloween just around the corner. I love watching scray movies and these are some of my faves.

What Time is it Google?

Why can’t Google tell me what time it is? I know that my IP address and it’s corresponding ISP location aren’t an exact match to my physical address but why can’t Google just take a whack at it, and tell people that they *might* be wrong?

Here’s a quick little graphic I worked up in Fireworks showing where My IP registered (geographically) and where I’m actually located.

What Time Is It Google?

Not a huge distance in miles, and definitely within the same time zone (EST), therefore Google could easily tell me what time it is.
