Baby Names: Gender Swapping!: "Baby names are so much fun! But what happens if you try to name your baby something out of the norm? What if you gender swap a baby name? What about that boy named Sue or girl named Kevin?..."



If we have a girl next month we are going to name her Greg and if its a boy we are going to name him Assface. How stupid would you be to name your Son Sue, morons.

Scientists say Slow-Motion Collision Near Antarctic Research Station Imminent
: "

 It is an event so large that the best seat in the house is in space: a massive iceberg is on a collision course with a floating glacier near the McMurdo Research Station in Antarctica. NASA satellites have witnessed the 80-mile-long B-15A iceberg moving steadily towards the Drygalski Ice Tongue. Though the iceberg's pace has slowed in recent days, NASA scientists expect a collision to occur no later than January 15, 2005.
