Tom Locke had a vision a few years ago.
He went and bought himself a roll of 100 stamps, costing him $39.
Then Tom said to himself, “why spend $39 on a roll of stamps if I’m not really going to get anything for it?” He likened this purchase to walking into a casino and spending $39 on a slot machine or blackjack table. Where’s the cost-benefit of spending that much money on stamps?

Do you hate waiting in line at the grocery store, waiting to check-out and head back home with your cart full of groceries?
Are you easily aggravated by the idiot in front of you who decides to use the self-scan machines to meticulously and slowly scan and bag their cart that’s full of 100+ items, when all you need to do is buy that half-gallon of ice cream and six-pack of beer before heading on your merry way? (Seriously – there should be a time limit on the self-scan machines: if you can’t scan your cart, pay, and get out of the way in less than 3 minutes, you need to be escorted directly to the end of the full-service line and clear the path for those of us who know what we’re doing.)

How often do you wash your jeans?
Well, if you’re college student Josh Le, the answer is that you TRY TO WEAR YOUR JEANS AS LONG AS POSSIBLE WITHOUT WASHING THEM. In his case, he wore his $165 pair of “Nudie Jeans” 330 different times over a 15 month period without washing them…. just to see if you could and what would happen.
A funky science project, if you will.
That’s over 60 weeks.

Web Watch does enjoy watching Food Network shows like WORST CHEF IN AMERICA, if only because we know that we are certainly not inept in our own kitchen.
We may not make the most amazingly-great tasting or nutritiously well-balanced meals, but we would never starve ourselves or our guests. And it’s all because Web Watch knows our way around a kitchen. Cooking is like driving – the method may not be pretty, but we’ll get you there.

Obscene, Indecent, Immoral and Offensive: 100+ Years of Censored, Banned, and Controversial Films
Not everyone is a fan of censorship.
But sometimes, movie studios release different versions of films to meet different audience needs. For example, a version of a film shown on an cross-country airplane flight (“this film has been edited for content”) may be cropped differently or have a different audio track than the same film seen on HBO, on DVD, or when downloaded from Netflix.
Sometimes, the studios even release different versions of the films based on actual ratings received from the MPAA — they may sell an R-rated version at Wal-Mart, but an unrated version via Amazon. Or a PG-version in the United States, and an NC-17 version in Europe.
So the question that Web Watch readers should be asking is “how do we go about to find out the differences between all these different versions of films, to be sure that the version we’re watching isn’t censored… or if it is censored, what are we missing?”
