"Why are you even learning Latin? It's a dead language," was the number one response I used to get when I took Latin at my old school. Yes, I'll admit that Latin is technically a dead language, but that doesn't change the fact that it's still pretty useful. While it might not be in everyday life, it...

I first got into Stephen King whenever I received two books of his for Christmas, The Shining & 'Salem's Lot. I read Salem's Lot first and finished it in three days while in Dallas.

All children's songs are a little weird, you have to admit. But 'Johnny Johnny Yes Papa' takes weird to the next level. This video is perhaps the creepiest video on the internet now.
