How To Own A Cop

So what happens when you urinate in front of cops?  You get yourself put in the slammer!  Trust me, I know.  LOL.  

Meet Dennis Roady, he likes to piss cops off.  He uses a water bottle to pretend like he's urinating in public, and the cops, well... I'll let you watch the funny video.  LMAO.

The Marketplace Works

Isn't it lovely that a minority of American's know how the marketplace works?  It's very simple, the free market allows the farmer to grow his apples who sets the price at .50 cents and then sells them to the consumer (you and I).  Same thing goes for the orange farmer, who grows them, and he sells them to us for .75 cents.  So simple, right?

And it's just that simple with gasoline...  NOT!  Keep in mind that the United States is not part of OPEC which sets the price on oil.

Roommate Rants About Missing Food

So what do you do when you start missing food from your apartment?  You go online and start to rant about it, right?  So take a look at what sneaks in through this guy's window as he rant's about his roommates stealing food.  The video capture is priceless! LOL.

Blade's Box of Jams: Track #16 - Monday Morning

Currently listening to

Melanie Fiona

It's a Monday!  Everybody's favorite day of the week!  Actually, I think I'm the only one who thinks it so.  

A majority of you have never heard of this artist, but if you want something to make you dance while you get dressed on a Monday morning, this song will get you to move.  Hell I'm shaking my ass right now, and I'm typing!

Melanie Fiona is a Canadian R&B singer I discovered while listening to another one of her tracks and the moment I heard "Monday Morning" my Mondays have never been the same.  I now play it every Monday as I drive to work and it makes me smile and jump for joy!  She's absolutely fantastic!  The song is featured on her album, "The Bridge" which was released in 2009.

Unfortunately, the song never debuted in the United States, but it did reach number one on the Swiss Singles Chart, and has also become successful in Poland, Austria and Hungary, reaching number one there as well.

So without further ado, listen to Melanie this Monday morning...

If you wish to hear the song with lyrics, view it after the jump...

Some Pretty Cool Stuff - Issue No. 004

I came across "Some Pretty Cool Stuff" that I want, but would probably be useless to me at this point in my life.  But who cares - I still want them.  In this week's issue there's a promising product that hasn't made it on the market quite yet, but every camper would love. And if you're a guitar player, the first product on my wishlist today serves two purposes - to cut up your credit cards, and create your own picks.

The Pickmaster Plectrum Punch

I would have loved one of these when I had my guitar.  It is definitely the perfect accessory for guitar players, and we’re not talking about the colored button-pressing variety. It’s essentially a rock-inspired hole puncher designed to turn old gift cards, ids, and credit cards into personalized strummers. So kiss those worries about your pick clashing with your mullet and sequins goodbye. $39.00

The Free Key - Key Ring

I wish i had some of these now ~ just broke a nail swapping keys around on traditional key rings this weekend! These Free Key “Press-To-Open” flat keyrings by Eric von Schoultz made of sand blasted stainless steel are nail savers ~ just press/pinch and the leverage helps open the end! Nice and easy to slip the keys on and off when needed. Cute packaging as well ~ see lots of pics on the next page!  Unfortunately these are not for sale in the U.S., but you can purchase them on Amazon! $10.70

Orange's Concept Solar Tent

Now this is totally cool, what more could you ask for?  I would have seriously wanted one of these when I was in the Boy Scouts!  A solar tent with a heating floor, a place to charge your accessories, WiFi capability and the best part of it all - it glows in the dark.  That's what I'm talking about.  This tent hasn't gone into production just yet, but a concept tent was revealed over in Europe and you can read all about it here.  Check it out, the article is great.

Poster of the Week - Issue No. 48 - Mistakes

Continuing alphabetically, I bring you this week's poster, "Mistakes".

It's Purely Animal - Issue No. 52 - Dolphin Stampede

Now this is absolutely fascinating.  I guarantee you will never see anything like this in your lifetime.  What the hell am I talking about, how am I guaranteeing it?  It's a Sunday, forgive me.  I'm sure that most Californians would probably see this if they were out boating or fishing for some reason.

A huge, and I mean huge pod of dolphins were spotted off the coast of California last week and it is truly an amazing sight to see.  While I've seen many dolphins in my lifetime, I've never seen anything like this.

Well here you go, all it takes is a little reading and obviously you can see them in your lifetime.  So I guess I should say "a majority of you" will never see this in your lifetime.  Absolutely fascinating to say the least.

YouTube Description: http://www.danawharf.com A huge common dolphin pod in front of the Dana Pride! We see whales AND dolphin daily! Remember whale and dolphin watching is year round out of Dana Wharf! Dana Wharf is the originator of California whale watching and we guarantee sightings! Visit us online or call us at 949.496.5794!

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... 10 Colors That Faded Away

In the animal world or the human world, things go extinct every day. Yep, remember the dinosaurs? Yeah - me neither.  But in the art world, colors have faded away too.  And here are ten colors that have.

Click the chart to enlarge, it's quite fascinating to learn where these 10 colors came from.  Like the color Caput-Mortuum, a tarry brown pigment made of ground-up Egyptian mummies. "caput mortuum" means "worthless remains"  - now these are Things That Make You Go Hmmm...

The Joys of Being a Parent: Thank You Mom

It's special things like this that makes being a parent one of the greatest joys in the world.  But it also makes me feel a bit nostalgic, because it's moments like this, that I truly miss my mother.  I love you Mom, even if you don't have Facebook, my words will always find their way to you.

Laugh of the Day: The World's Worst Handyman

This is too freaking hilarious.  You never hear a word with these videos, but just watching them makes anyone laugh.  In this "Just For Laughs" video it doesn't matter how many times the carpenter puts up this shelf, he never gets it right - even when he uses a level.

YouTube: How much skill does it take to hold something straight? Not very much, but with this tricked wall, no matter how good you are, you'll never get it right and she won't hesitate to make you feel terrible for it!

Crimes of the Century - No. 13 - John Wayne Gacy

JOHN WAYNE GACY, 1978

The warning signs were there: the arrest for sodomy with a minor; another sexual offense with a child; the strange smell, like dead things, in his house. But John Wayne Gacy was also an upstanding citizen: he helped out the neighbors, he was the chaplain of the Jaycees, he dressed up as roly-poly Pogo the Clown to entertain children. But when police came asking questions in December 1978, Gacy started confessing. And so the cops looked in the house's 40-ft. crawl space, beneath the garage and under the house. They found the bodies and remains of 28 young men and boys; Gacy said there were four others that he had thrown into the river. 

By the end of the year, police had practically torn the house down in their search. There was no question that Gacy would be found guilty; and a jury took barely an hour to come to that decision. He was sentenced to death, under new guidelines that would make sure the penalty was not "cruel and unusual" and therefore within constitutional bounds. But Gacy's execution by lethal injection in 1994 would reopen that question; instead of a five-minute procedure, the process took 18 and Gacy was clearly struggling as he perished. The critics asked: Was this cruel and unusual? His victims' families were unanimous: so was Gacy.

TIME Magazine posted this article online several years ago, along with a list of 24 additional notorious crimes that I have been posting and will continue to post every Saturday on my blog.  Hope you enjoy.

***

You can learn more about this notorious killer here, and how he became an embarassment to the Secret Service when he was photographed with the First Lady, Rosalynn Carter in 1978.  Gacy was an organizer of a Polish parade that was held in Chicago every year.  In the photo, Gacy is wearing a pin with an "S" on it - meaning he received some special clearance by the Secret Service.  Geez, it's amazing what you can learn by taking the time to read.

Special Poster of the Week: Toy Story

Quoted - Novelist Haruki Murakami on Hatred

“Hatred is like a long, dark shadow. Not even the person it falls upon knows where it comes from, in most cases. It is like a two-edged sword. When you cut the other person, you cut yourself. The more violently you hack at the other person, the more violently you hack at yourself. It can often be fatal. But it is not easy to dispose of. Please be careful... It is very dangerous. Once it has taken root in your heart, hatred is the most difficult thing in the world to shake off.”

- Novelist Haruki Murakami from his novel, The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle

Laugh of the Day: Get a New Daddy

OMG! LMAO!  Okay children, so if you're not happy with your Daddy, here's a sure way of getting yourself a brand new daddy!   I stumbled across this video several years ago, and as stupid as this may sound, it was actually quite funny.

I started ROFL when the kid took shirtless pics of himself with a Polaroid camera and placed them in his mother's dresser.   Just another sure way for mommy to get rid of his father and "Get A New Daddy"

What a Hot Mess: Google Searches of Countries or Continents

The wonderful Jason Oberholtzer from I Love Charts has pointed out something I never realized about Google when it comes to doing a search of countries or continents.

Don't do this at work - trust me, it's not safe.  But when you search "European", "American", or "African", you pull up lovely images of flags, culture and history;  But when you search "Asian" it's not a pretty picture.  What a Hot Mess!

The chart below is an example - it's been edited for safe viewing.

Yeah, my thoughts exactly!

Gay Marriage: Nothing to Be Afraid of Anymore by Kevin Drum

Back in 2008, after the passage of Proposition 8 banned gay marriage in California, there was a lot of talk about putting a pro-marriage initiative on the ballot in 2010. That didn't happen, and my read of public opinion at the time suggested we'd be better off waiting a little bit to ensure victory. Time was on our side, after all.

This may all be moot if Prop 8 gets overturned by the Supreme Court, but in any case, it looks like the success of same-sex marriage laws in other states has had a galvanizing effect on California public opinion. According to the Field Poll, about 51 percent of Californians approved of gay marriage in 2008, and that number hadn't budged much by 2010. But their latest poll shows a huge shift: 59 percent of Californians now approve. Read Full Story Here.

World Record Paper Airplane Distance

Who knew things like this even existed?

How many of you remember folding paper airplanes and darting them across school classrooms?  I do, I do!  LOL.  Well, John Collins designed a world-record breaking paper airplane thrown by Joe Ayoob last month.  The plane flew 226 feet, 10 inches smashing the old record by 19 feet, 6 inches.

The current record is 207 feet and 4 inches set by Stephen Kreiger in 2003.

The new world record, once verified by Guinness, will be 226 feet, 10 inches.  Check out the record-breaking event below.

Are People Really This Stupid? Issue No. 23 - "Because This Is What The F-ing People Want" [NSFW]

Aye, Aye, Aye, I keep asking myself the same question over and over, and I keep coming up with same freaking answer! YES! YES! and YES!

I'm sorry but this has got to be the most stupidest thing I have ever seen.  Lol. Yes, I know I'm using improper grammar, but since we're being stupid who gives a sh*t.

Seriously Bro - would you set your hair on fire, because "Bro, this is what the f-ing people want"?

So a couple idiots (who shall remain nameless), thought it would be a good idea to feed a fellow bro some flaming nachos. No. Some real flaming nachos.  But if that wasn't enough, why not use a propane tank and light their bro's hair on fire as well?  I think Matt Stopera over at BuzzFeed said it best, “If you needed anymore proof that this generation is the GREATEST generation here it is.”

Oh, one more thing... this is NSFW because of the filthy language the bros use throughout the taping and burning of their fellow bros hair. 

Disney Prince of the Week 008

Over the last 8 weeks I have been posting a Disney Prince of the Week.  Can you guess the movie and the name of the character who played this week's Prince? 

While he's not technically a Prince in the movie, the artist considers him the girl counter-part of a Disney Animated movie.  Hence in the eyes of the artist, he's a Prince of Disney.

More From Katy Perry's Interview Spread

Remember that stunning photo of Katy Perry I posted on Wednesday?  Well several more pics have surfaced and she's just as stunning.  Check'em out.

Move Back Adele, there's a new girl in town...

“Well, my music is about to get real fucking dark. I’ll be shoe-gazing. You’ll never see my face because my hair is in my face.”

and how it will affect her songs when she writes them.

Captain Kathryn Janeway vs. The Cast of Frasier

I felt a little bit of nostalgia coming on, and had to post this video of Captain Kathryn Janeway from the television series, "Star Trek: Voyager".

The series aired from 1995-2001 on the UPN network which later changed it's name to the CW.  It was the networks longest airing series at the time and I watched every single episode.  Of all the Star Trek shows, this was by far, my favorite.  The Captain, while foolish in her decisions at times, was statuesque, brave and downright sexy.  We all loved her.  Well... most of my friends did anyway. LOL.

In either case, the cast from the sitcom, "Frasier" which aired from 1993-2004 were featured alongside Captain Janeway and her bridge during the Emmy Awards and it was absolutely hilarious.  Check it out.
