It's not everyday you get to take a trip to Antarctica and watch an Iceberg implode right in front of you. A group of tourists took a trip to Wilhelmina Bay, Antarctica a few weeks ago and experienced just that - something tourists would undoubtedly never see.
Watch as an Iceberg, thousands of years old, implodes with pieces of ice hurdling towards them. Now that's some pretty crazy stuff. You may want to turn the volume down, the spectators are a little loud.

Some Pretty Cool Stuff - Issue No. 005
Now, here are "Some Pretty Cool Stuff" I would like. I mean, think about never owning "live" fish again! Ryan and I have a Koi Pond and we used to keep a 40 gallon aquarium in the house, so you can just imagine how much work that can be. I know this is only on my 5th issue, but I've actually come across some pretty cool stuff, don't you think? I hope you like this series as much as I do, because it's fun posting them every week. Hey, who knows? I may introduce you to something you never heard of before. :-)
Bar Games Drink Coasters
Okay, I don't go out to bars anymore, and even if I did, I don't think I would have the time to sit and play with games at the bar. But I wouldn't mind having this at my bar at home - provided I had a bar at home. LOL. Well, let's just say when Ryan and I move into our new home I would like one, and these could sit on the counter. These unique coasters contain 30 amusing games, ranging from “I Spy” to “Peanut Darts”; so you'll have plenty to talk (and laugh) about, up to your very last drink! They come in a set of 30, made of 85% recycled paper pulp - so they're good for the environment and your drunk friends and family! :-) $12.99 |
Electronic Goldfish in a Bowl
As I mentioned earlier, it takes a lot of patience and work to raise live fish. Ryan and I have a Koi Pond outside and it's one of the most costliest things we ever got ourselves into. And the same thing goes for raising fish in Aquariums. But alas, some of you are lazy and forget to feed the little dudes. And you're probably ever so tired of all the toilet bowl funerals. But what if there was an easier way to enjoy a goldfish without having to worry about food? There is (woo hoo!) and it is the Electronic Goldfish in a Bowl. Put fresh batteries into the top, push the base decoration into the bowl, fill the bowl with water, and put the top back on. Tap the top and the fishy "swims" around - looking quite alive. $19.99 |
What To Cook? Dice
I love to cook, and often times I'm stuck not knowing what I want to cook for dinner. In the end, my philosophy is you can never go wrong with Chicken, so I just pick that and go from there. But what if you could throw some dice and let them make the decision for you? Provided you had all the ingredients. In either case, their a delightful addition to any kitchen - make a game of cooking, mix it up, get creative, get inspired. Each set (because you know there had to be a set for Vegetarians) of 14 handmade dice come packed in a handy re-purposed spice jar. You have your basics - from eggs, rice - to the exotic - hot chiles, fennel, bok choy. includes grains, veggies, herbs and (in the omnivore set) meats too. $20.00 |

The Muppet Hunger Games
If you haven't noticed - we haven't heard from Miss Piggy and the gang for quite some time. Well.... that's because they're getting ready for the Games! The Hunger Games that is. LOL.
Actually, in order to promote its DVD/Blu-ray release of The Muppets, Disney has come up with a parody to the real Hunger Games movie, and it's really cute. You'll like it.

What a Hot Mess: How To Fix Your Car
Talk about a hot mess. This only goes to show that being a mechanic isn't for anyone, only the few and the proud. LOL.
Seriously though... if you ever want to remove an engine from a car (which my father and I have done plenty of times), you simply tie some chains to the engine block, tie them to a tree, put your car in reverse, and floor the gas pedal. Trust me, it will be a success, just ask the guys in the video...

Isn't This The Truth? Wheel of College
It's truly sad, but isn't this the truth?
Luckily for me, I had Financial Aid to get me through college, but for most folks it's about loans, loans, loans and paying them off after you graduate.
