Cyanide and Happiness: Coming Out

The best scratch off your dad will ever play! LMAO

Things That Make You Go Hmmm... Texas vs. Chile

I've known this for a long time, but just in case none of my fellow Texans knew...

We not only stole the flag design from Chile, we stole their damn motto too.  LMAO.

Chilean Flag

In order for Texas to differinteate itself from Chile, they made their star bigger and the blue extend from top to bottom on the left hand side.

Texan Flag

As for the motto, Chile's "La Estrella Solitaria", is "The Lone Star" in English.

And we are????  

The Lone Star State - go figure. 

Now that is something to really make you go, "hmmm".

Are People Really This Stupid? Issue No. 29 - Facebook is Full of Them (20 Pics)

LMAO!  I'm sorry, but I had to post these pics - they're freaking hilarious!!! And I'm using "freaking" to be kind. LOL.

But seriously folks.  When people start thinking the Mount Rushmore National Memorial is a natural creation it's time to re-evaluate our education system in this country.  Oh wait, are we not 22 in the world in education, or is that 50?  Who cares - we're behind.

Check out the remaining pics after the jump.... they will have you on the edge of your seat laughing.

Loving One Another - Issue No. 017

Wow, I can't believe it's been over 8 months since I posted an issue of "Loving One Another".  Please feel free to share my latest picture quote creation.

Isn't This The Truth? Life Before and After Cell Phones

So the brilliant minds that at _twentypixels have given us a breakdown of life, "before and after" cell phones came to existence.  And I'd have to say they got it down right.  LOL.

So let's just say you're going to meet a friend at 7 PM, called someone and they didn't pick up, or you were stranded and needed a ride.  How was it like before the smartphone you have in your hand right now came to be?

A Very Special Moment: Lazaro Arbos May Stutter, But He Can Sing

I've decided to create a new series, and I'm going to call it "A Very Special Moment".  

I always come across videos on the internet, that I swear, are very special moments and this video is one of those moments.  

Who you become, what inspires you and what message you convey to those around you - will definitely make you a better person.  All we want is to be loved and accepted. Everyone want's that. You want that.

Ryan and I haven't seen American Idol since Crystal Bowersox lost to Lee DeWyze in season 9, but the recent audition of Lazaro Arbos I caught online was absolutely gut-wrenching.  The boy has a stutter, but can definitely sing his heart out.

Where To Pet and Not Pet Your Pet

So yeah, I don't think this picture is very accurate, because our dogs are very picky about where they want to be petted; Well, Ryan's dogs anyway.  My little Duchess loves to be petted all over. LOL.

2015 Ford Evos Mustang???

RAIN

So what! If you have to wait 2 more years - I'm sure all you Mustang fanatics will be out buying the new sports car in droves.  I'll stick to my RAIN for now, thank you very much :-) 

According to this article, The new Ford Mustang Evos will be coming to a city near you by 2015. The Evos is powered by a plug-in hybrid electric powertrain which consists of a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle gasoline engine, electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack. [source].  So yeah Ford's taking Hybrid to a whole new level, and I'd have to say I'm quite impressed.  But I'm sure this care will cost a pretty penny, so unless you're carrying around a huge load of cash, financing will not be so great. Maybe you can finance for 10 years or something. LOL.

Check out the pics, they are pretty cool.

I Can't Freaking Believe This!

LMAO, Yep, these are our 4 chihuahuas!

What Stress Does To Your Body

Everyone will go through it at some point in their life.  As children, you shouldn't have to.  As teenagers, you have no reason to; Unless homework, boyfriends and girlfriends drive you to it. LOL.  As a young adult, most definitely! And as you get older - all the time. LOL. Just kidding.

I can't remember the last time I was stressed; Okay maybe a couple years ago at work, but I'm okay now.

All kidding aside, the chart below is a pretty clear indicator as to what stress can do to your body.  Check it out, because I've experienced everyone of these throughout my life, and I'm sure you have as well.

Laugh of the Day: Shirtless Anonymous

This video was released in 2008, but it's funny nonetheless.  I remember posting it on my old MySpace blog back in the day, LOL.  

It's intended for all you guys that like to run around shirtless and can't seem to put a shirt on.

Mealies For My Love

Earlier today I posted a picture on Facebook, and by looking at it you would think I was having a party.  Mardi Gras anyone? LOL.

Actually, the food is for my partner, Ryan.  No, he's not going to eat it all tonight;  Though, we are having a sample of each dish for dinner.

When I make dinner every night there is usually some left-overs, and with those left-overs I make "Mealies For My Love".  What are those?  Well, they're pre-packaged meals that I freeze and Ryan takes to work each day.   But since I hardly cooked this week - I didn't have any left-overs and Ryan was running low on his mealies;  He only had one left in the freezer.

And yes, they are labeled with the date, and the particular food that's in them. LOL.

It's not very often that I cook food in bulk like this, but this week was the exception; We've been having other foods stored in our freezer for the past week.

So in the end, when I see that Ryan is running low, this is what I do.  Oh - how I love my husband so.

Central Park From Above

For the New Yorkers who see this everyday and it's nothing new, but still mesmerizing.  And for those of us who have never been and are fascinated by these type of images...

A glorious view of Central Park from up above.

iDoctor: The Future of Healthcare

How much time does one spend at the doctor?  I'm going to say a good amount of time.  But the real question is - how much do you end up spending?  For many Americans a simple test can cost upwards of $800.00 according the video you're about to see.   Imagine taking a urine, saliva, blood, and EKG test from the comfort of your own home? It's possible, and according to one of the top cardiologist in the country, it will.

"Why do we have people being treated like cattle heard?  That's waste! And billions of dollars that's being wasted each year for screening, and the wrong drugs, and the wrong everything - it's outstanding! And we just can't go on like this." - Dr. Eric Topol

The Most Honest Three Minutes In Television History

To say this video has gone viral is an understatement.  And why?  Because it honestly is the most honest three minutes in television history you'll ever see, and I'm sure you can spend 3 minutes of your life watching it.  I did, and glad I did so.
I have never seen this show, but I may have to re-think that.  Wow. Wow. Wow.

Hillary Clinton: The Most Powerful Woman in American Politics

"...she has been one of the most remarkable Americans of our time. In the 20 years she’s been on the stage, the country has gone from wondering whether women could handle the toughest jobs to knowing they can. That is a huge cultural change—barriers that were a given for most people a generation ago are just completely socially unacceptable now, and thousands more women know they can aim for the top. No one is more responsible for that change than Hillary Clinton." 

     - Michael Tomasky, Special correspondent for Newsweek/The Daily Beast and editor of Democracy: A Journal of Ideas.

I pulled this quote from an article I read this morning, and it is absolutely wonderful.  Read it here - The Daily Beast

This Boy Is A Bottom (NSFW)

The following video was released a few days ago by drag superstar, Willam Belli and it's absolultely hilarious!  I loved it so much, I had to download it.  You may remember, Willam was eliminated for breaking the rules in Season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race, where he went on to say he wasn't going to "RuPaulogize" for breaking the rules.

As with most videos by Belli, it is NSFW so make sure to have some headphones on or wait to play it at home.

The video parodies the song, "Girl is on Fire" by Alicia Keys.

 

Paint & Body Repair Man Has The Most Amazing Heart & Soul

What an amazing story - I shed a few tears watching this video.  
And it isn't just about the video being so special - which it is, but because I can't fathom why most of today's Christians, Conservatives and Republicans can't be more like this Paint & Body Repair man.  To top it off, he did an act of kindness for someone he didn't even know.

I love Ellen, and I love this young man.

The Dark Knight Rises: How It Should Have Ended

In June I posted how The Avengers should have ended, and it was absolutely hilarious.  Well, now it's the Dark Knight's turn. LOL.

From the same fabulous guys who brought you Jurassic park: How It Should Have Ended, Return Of The Jedi: How It Should Have Ended, Super Cafe - The Super Social Network, and Super Cafe - Bat Phone, comes this hilarious re-telling of the blockbuster summer movie, The Dark Knight Rises: How It Should Have Ended.

Cyanide and Happiness: Internet Yes Indeed

"We Built This" - Think Again RNC

Most Republicans think they got rich, just because they did.  Or they became successful on their own.  I'm not talking about the struggling Republicans who are on welfare and food stamps just around the corner from you, but the hard-working Republicans who think firefighters, teachers, policemen (you know all those who receive funds from the government) should be removed from the system.  Oh wait, even the poor Republicans think that way, yet they don't seem to know that by voting President Obama out of office will be a sure way they will never get their government food stamps and welfare checks. What hypocrites, I swear.  Hell, these people are having a convention in a building that was built with 62% of your government funds.  Oh and I can almost guarantee it was built by "illegal immigrants" too.

I stumbled across a wonderful blog on Tumblr, "Tumbling the Conventions," and I had to share a wonderful statement from author, Jason Oberholtzer.

election:

The theme for the Republican National Convention is “We Built This!” which aims to underline the GOP’s counterpoint to an Obama vagary of pronoun usage last month, where he said the following:

If you’ve been successful, you didn’t get there on your own. You didn’t get there on your own. I’m always struck by people who think, well, it must be because I was just so smart. There are a lot of smart people out there. It must be because I worked harder than everybody else. Let me tell you something — there are a whole bunch of hardworking people out there. If you were successful, somebody along the line gave you some help. There was a great teacher somewhere in your life. Somebody helped to create this unbelievable American system that we have that allowed you to thrive. Somebody invested in roads and bridges. If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen. The Internet didn’t get invented on its own. Government research created the Internet so that all the companies could make money off the Internet.

Ironically, this year’s “We Built This!” RNC is being held in The Tampa Bay Times Forum arena, which was built in 1996 with 62% government funds.

Post Secret Fridays - Issue 102 - My Special Issue

It's been a year since I last posted a "My Special Issue" of Post Secret Fridays and 3 months since I posted Issue 101 on my blog. But after watching the video below, I simply had to do it this morning. 

The video was posted by the founder of PostSecret, Frank Warren, and it's absolutely stunning. If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend watching it. It has definitely made my morning, grateful to have the wonderful life I have, and happy to know I made a difference in many people's lives.
