    Song identification help (horn section)

    I'm trying to find a song. The only thing I remember from it is the horn section, but I seem to recall that horn section is a famous part of the song. The horn section kinda sounds like Ennio Morricone. This is either an indie song from the last year or two (I might have heard it on my local...

    Identify this piece of IKEA furniture

    I bought an entire living room full of stuff off Craigslist. Now I'm trying to find out what each piece is called. Most of them have tags on it that tell you, but this TV stand has nothing. No tags or stickers. The guy I bought it from doesn't remember.

    The non-stop train idea

    Someone in China proposed this idea for a train that doesn't stop between stations. I find this a very interesting idea: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0DfDOlUXEBo Everything is in Chinese but the video itself is self-explanatory.

    Help me identify this song!

    Ok, this is driving me crazy. I have a tune stuck in my head but I can't figure out what it is. The main chorus has a melody very similar to Stevie Nicks - Talk to Me during the lyrics "Well, is it all that hard, is it all that tough". It occurs during 1:34 - 1:40 in this video...

    Trying to decide whether to upgrade my Xbox 360 Arcade to the CoD Elite bundle

    Should I do it? My arcade is currently a Jasper chipset and I bought it when they just started releasing the Jaspers, so is there any advantage to upgrading to a newer unit?

    Peter King is bad at math.

    From his latest Monday Morning Quarterback article where he basically blasts Belichick on his decision: So by his calculations, if the Pats punt, they win 65% of the time. If the Pats go for it, they win 65% of the time. That's a wash. However, if the Pats go for it and fail, they still get...

    Has there been any talk of a Halo and Halo 2 remake in HD?

    With the upcoming God of War I and II collection for the PS3 and the rumored Ico/Shadow of the Colossus collection, I was wondering if there was any interest in porting Halo and Halo 2 to the Xbox 360, complete with widescreen and HD graphics. That would be sick, IMO. I would love to play the...
