The Sounds of Suburbia
Posted By : Mitch Tobol

Waking up on a sunny Saturday morning, brewing some delicious coffee and venturing out my back door to feel the sunshine and listen to the sounds of suburbia waking up.   I found a video so you can share in my experience.  (BTW, there were three of them in my neighbors yard)

People 300 miles from the epicenter felt the tremor which happened around 10:20AM yesterday The epicenter was about 4 miles southwest of Gladstone, NJ.   According to the U.S. Geological Survey tectonic summary, the earthquake occurred because of “oblique

As spring approaches, many of you might be looking at your grills wondering what you might be cooking this year.    For me, I'm a year-round griller/smoker but the better weather allows me to smoke longer with more consistency, not always having to tend to the fire. I was asked last night for my recipe for smoking baby back ribs. So here it is (d

Is anyone else watching this on Hulu? It's a tragic comedy based in Chicago.   I think this is a breakthrough series, similar to "Breaking Bad," that will change how series are made.

Are we done with winter?

We are in the midst of the lightning fast changes in Artificial intelligence. Right now I can type a simple sentence into only AI video apps such as invideo.ai  and in a few minutes, it creates a 2 minute video. As an example I just created this video about Gotham starting at 7:15Am this morning. It took 10 minutes for the software to create and pr
