People used to say this was Frank Sinatra’s world, and the rest of us just lived in it. After watching the multiple special features in the box set The Godfather - Coppola Restoration, one might conclude it’s actually time for a cultural and historical revision: This is the Corleone family’s world. The rest of us better tread lightly. Actually, the point of the half-dozen or so features crammed onto a disc accompanying the beautifully restored The Godfather, The Godfather II and The Godfather III, is that The Godfather movies have penetrated popular culture in such a deep and meaningful way that they are second-nature to everything.

With the first Centerfold, who just happened to be the radiant Marilyn Monroe, Hugh Hefner masterminded a cultural icon: Playboy’s Playmate of the Month. Now, for the first time ever, Playboy has gathered together every Centerfold from every issue into one luxurious collector’s edition. That’s over 600 beauties. We’ve reproduced these Centerfolds exactly as they appeared in the magazine to create a full-size, deluxe volume. Paging through this colossal, chronological collection provides a breathtaking view of our evolving appreciation of the female form: from the fifties fantasy of voluptuous blondes to the tawny beach girls of the seventies to the groomed and toned women of today.

Long story short, I wanted a site where I posted gadgets and people would come and I would make money. Well I guess that really isn't changing much.
Basically, I'm going to post whatever I find stupid and usually try to make fun of it. This also includes posting frequent babes I find sexy for no other reason than that. I won't be professional or use spellcheck. I believe this will create a lucrative comment section for each post.
These are my promises - Steve
