Many people spend the first 17 years of their lives counting down the hours until they are able to buy their own cigarettes, get a piercing or even get their first tattoo. Before tattooing your body, you should consider the fact that a piece of art will be on your body for the rest of your life, unless you are willing to pay hundreds of dollars for laser removal treatments that can sometimes be literally scarring.

Head lice outbreak on 'South Park'

A review of this week's episode

Head lice outbreak on 'South Park'

Are Trey Parker and Matt Stone trying to say something about the environment? One way to view the episode would be that the lice are human beings and we are destroying the world, which in the cartoon is Clyde's head. Another way that could be more accurate is that Parker and Stone are trying to say that environmentalists are annoying little people who get in everyone's hair, and when they do, they itch like crazy.

South Park offends few and entertains many

A review of this week's episode

This week the boys from South Park took a hilarious crack at Christianity. Last nights episode, "Cartman Sucks" started off with Cartman showing pictures he had taken of Butters while he slept, to the rest of the boys. Cartman not only named the pictures everything from "Pierre," a cat poo mustache, to "Hot Fudge Monday," but he made a pretty scrapbook collection out of the pictures and considered them an art form.

All Hail the King of Pho

A Restaurant Review

The broth is superior, the difference between Sea Ridge and Two Buck Chuck is the difference between Pho King broth and a variety of other pho places in the area. The pho blends a delicate saltiness with a beef, rather than watery taste, both tastes heightened and made whole by the basil and the green onions, which thickens the broth. (0) comments

You have your choice of mint, vanilla, chocolate, cola, banana, cherry and grape. We're not talking about lollipops here, people. We're talking about condoms - with a twist. Protection has come a long way since the 1930s, when latex condoms became available for widespread use. (4) comments
