Two more funny commercials
These are old, but great: "buzz buzz buzz Hello, Mosquito!" "aaaaaah! the Atmosphere!!! aaaaaagh!!" I loved these when they were new, and they still crack me up for some reason... Read More...
Another video...
Since I posted the Matt Harding stuff, I figured I should throw this out there, too. If you're not a Discovery Channel nut like me, you probably haven't seen this commercial. I've decided I think it is a pretty great concept. There are a couple Read More...
Where the #@&% is Matt?
Somehow, I haven't come across this before, but now I am a believer. Just watch the video then come back here and tell me what you thought. http://wherethehellismatt.com/videos.shtml?fbid=YDmiG I am torn between laugher and crying. It is pretty incredible Read More...
Blue Laws
It is crazy some of the laws this country has on the books. I was talking with the father of a friend last night, and he was decrying the ridiculous brewpub laws in Alabama. I went and searched, and it is just crazy. This law was passed in 1992. The Brewpub Read More...
How I spend my free time...
Mostly, I play with and hang out with my kids, but when they're in bed, I either sit outside and relax and read books (currently reading Cyptonomicon by Neal Stephenson) or I watch DVR'd TV shows, or I play with my Above and Beyond award from Read More...
When geeks laugh at other geeks
This is really mean, and I am probably going straight to hades for putting it on the web for all to see, but it is funny enough (and I'm mean-spirited enough) that I am going to do it anyway. We are sitting in a knowledge-sharing session concerning Read More...
Interesting article about my favorite human body part...
Get your mind out of the gutter -- I am referring to the brain. It should be your favorite body part, too, since all the other parts are a LOT less fun/interesting/useful without the brain. Check out this little blurb (I came to find it though boing boing Read More...
Help out a friend of the family of a friend of mine...
From my coworker/friend Jeff: Hey, if you’re bored (and have the latest version of flash installed) go to this website… http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/19920429/nPage/3 … and vote for the following picture (it should be right on the page Read More...
The small town life...
Sometimes, the small town is exactly what the doctor ordered. As I have posted before, we are able to enjoy our community fireworks from our front lawn, and this year was no exception. Once again, the Milan Community Fair committee put on a great show, Read More...
Power In Numbers
This is really pretty amazing. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uw7uA9QExc Generally, you only see footage of the lions taking their prey and that's that. Well, the cape buffalo in this video not only don't care for that plan, they decide it is Read More...
Jon Krikfalusi interview
If you liked Ren and Stimpy, but have lost track of whatever happened to the creator, check this out . He has been busy since the days of Ren and Stimpy -- although mixing his great creativity and animation with technology. The best part about the article Read More...
Larry Bud Melman has passed away
Larry 'Bud' Melman actor dies I haven't been a Letterman follower for quite some time, but back in late 80's and early 90's I watched it quite a bit, and Larry 'Bud' Melman was always a funny part of the show. RIP Larry Bud Read More...
Fun stuff recently
I haven't been very good about posting for the last few months, mostly due to being busy, but partially due to laziness. We seem to keep busier than we really mean to, but it works for us, most of the time. Last weekend, the whole family road-tripped Read More...
Deer Camp
Got back yesterday from several days at the Sand Ridge Gang Deer Camp with Matt. I missed on a long shot at a small 5-point buck on Thursday morning, and never saw antlers again. We saw a lot of does and had a good time hanging out. Saturday we ventured Read More...
Show Monday
Jodi and I checked out Amos Lee at the Ark on Monday evening. It was a very good show, with great opening acts and a cool venue. I had a big post typed up yesterday, but in my cold-medicine-induced haze I somehow managed to lose it. I'll add links Read More...
