When Common Sense Isn't
You're right, Benoit; I'm guessing they didn't get that tip, either.Nice to see that they understood that there was something important about the 12 bit, though. Do you suppose the wreckerator was putting that extra layer of icing on and wondering what the big deal was about the...

Sunday Sweets is my weekly NON-Wrecks feature, the better to show how wrecky the Wrecks really are.I grew up in the 80s, so I have a bit of a soft spot for the music, the movies, and the retina-searing color combinations of that decade. I also make funny squealing noises when I see...

For Me?

The End of Sweetness

It's a Form of Flattery. Honest.
