Pizza is as much the US’s past time as baseball supposedly is. But why are we apparently getting beat in the awesome pizza department by Japan!? They gave us the Wii and Playstation, and now the Double Roll. How come the pizza hut in Japan caters more to fatties then the ones here? So not cool.

Other then the catchy headline, it’s mostly true. Microsoft has admitted that recently (last 19 month’s) produced 360’s are indeed defective.

Microsoft has admitted that every one of the 11.6 million Xbox 360 consoles sold in the past 19 months suffers from a design flaw that could cause the device to fail.

The firm will extend the warranty coverage from one to three years to compensate consumers, but does not plan to instate a recall or exchange programme.

Now lord knows, considering this is an Aussie site, here’s hopin’ that means for us Americans too. I’m assuming so, ’cause I doubt every Aussie has a 360 in their living rooms anyways. Especially considering Sony Australia touting the PS3 as more a Blu-Ray player then gaming system.

Sometimes though, a company or person has an idea so good it can’t be denied no matter how low-tech it may seem. People search all over for easy solutions to their problems (little kids on leashes anyone?), now here’s one for the folks stuck with no motorized suction brooms.

I’ll take one, and gift it to a lady.

There comes a time in every man/woman/child’s life when they just happen to get the taste of something they liken to the nectar of the god’s. Then there are times when you just see something so darn scrumptious looking you know what it tastes like before it hits your palette.

Well my friends, this glorious creation is the latter. I love Snickers. I love chocolate. I love caramel. And who doesn’t love nougat!?

Just make a few of those and I’ll eat for years.

Cool things happen a lot these days, and here’s one of them.
