    I'm a freak for insects. Love em. But ants have a special place with me. No other insect species is as unbelievable... as sophisticated, and as ...well, as powerful as ants. They have remained in an un-evolved state of perfection for 6 million years, because they got it right. And if you got it right, why mess with it? This list is only a tiny fraction of all the amazing facts about ants. Think about these ant facts before the next time you step on them for fun.

    Picking a place for the first date is hard enough. But what if your date is a serious foodie, an aficionado with a discriminating palette who knows every hole in the wall ethnic communal table drinks-on-fire place in the city? Well then you've got to find the way to their heart through their stomach, and their stomach is like their Dad and he's already kind of pissed at you.

    Emily Dickinson once said "Beauty is not caused. It (simply) is." Well, that may be true but it won't stop the women of the world from feverishly seeking out the next magic wonder for halting the speeding bullet of aging. Whereas today we are slaves to Botox and silicone, the ladies of yester-year resorted to some truly brain-cringing practices. What's scarier is that most of these exist today.

    Yesterday, my iPhone died. For a few terrible hours I thought I had lost everything - literally. My music, my calendar, my contacts, my email, my notes, my bookmarks. Basically, my entire life. Luckily, the genius demi-gods at the Apple Store fixed my most precious accessory. But, first they had to wipe my poor baby completely clean, so she could be reborn into a new phone that actually functioned again. At the same time, we switched email servers at work. Which anyone who doesn't have a dedicated IT Department can tell you is about as much fun as taking Michelle "Bombshell" McGee to synagogue with you on Yom Kippur. Oh, and my Outlook, which has been slowly wheezing it's way towards an untimely death for months now, picked yesterday to finally give up the ghost. So, I spent all night last night & most of today reconfiguring my life. Literally. Now that I'm slowly starting to feel technologically (and physically, emotionally and mentally secure again), I'm starting to reflect on the whole experience of the past 24 hours. Of watching my technological life flat-line, and having to (sometimes ruthlessly) cut out the cancerous programs that were preying on it (bye bye Outlook and iTunes 9.1, hello Gmail & itunes 9.0). Suffice it to say, the whole thing got me thinking about software. And specifically, what pieces of the software I stare at all day every day are really essential. And, what pieces I could probably live without (only if I absolutely had to). And so, without further ado, here's my list of the 10 pieces of software - other than the obvious entries of iPhone OS & the software that makes my beloved Acer Aspire run day to day - that I find to be most vital to my technological survival. And yes, these ten pieces of tech are totally worth slowly going even blinder than I already am from staring at screens all day.

  • Top 10 Most Offensive Mel Gibson Quotes
    In honor of Mel Gibson's racist, sexist rant at his ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva - here's a collection of the worst Mel Gibson quotes. Unfortunately, putting together a list of disgustingly offensive Mel Gibson quotes isn't hard - picking just ten from the many, many qualifying quotes is.
