50 Ways To Say Goodbye and I Didn't Even Know It

This just goes to show how much I pay attention to the lyrics to a song. Last night, Ryan showed me the music video to Train's, "50 Ways To Say Goodbye" and I never realized how hilarious the song was until I saw it.  Suffice it to say, I was embarrassed. LOL.  I listen to this song everyday as I walk from the gym to the office.  It has an upbeat tempo and it brightens my day.  But omg, it's so cruel!  LMAO.

The video stars David Hasselhoff and Taryn Manning - It is absolutely hilarious.  If you haven't seen it, check it out here.

And These Pics Are The Reason Commas Are Important....

I know I'm not a great writer and I know that I use commas way too often;  But when I look at these pics, I'm glad I do.  LMAO.  Either these pics will make you laugh, or give you an answer to "Are People Really This Stupid?" lol.

I don't think a comma could've helped the last one, no matter which way you put it.

Blade's Box of Jams: Track #17 - Gentleman

Currently listening to

PSY

I haven't posted a jam in over a year, so I figured why not let you join in on "Gentleman" from your favorite Korean artist, PSY.

I never understood the craze behind his previous song, "Gangnam Style," but since it surpassed Justin Bieber's single, "Baby" on April 1st, he must be doing something right. lol.

Here's the video and song for your enjoyment; And yes, while I don't understand what he's saying, I'm still listening to it.

Beautiful Light Bulb Explosions

Exploding light-bulbs helped save this young photographer's life. And not just any type of photography, but those taken with a high-speed camera. 

John Smith loves to fill light bulbs with different items and then shoot at them with a pellet gun. He uses anything from ball bearings, chalk dust, daisies, candies, marbles - you name it. 

"I was going through a deep depression and was feeling like nothing was going right, nothing was good in my life, and I lost control,” John says. “Photography saved me because it allowed me to see the world in a different way. It reminded me to live in the moment.”

Smith is known as WideEyedIlluminations on Flickr.  Feel free to check out some of his work.

Clever or classy?  Take your pick.  I'm sure there will be those who absolutely hate it, because we know what "ship" really means. LOL.  I think the recent ad from Kmart is pretty darn clever.  Take a look and discover "shipping" your pants?

Crimes of the Century - No. 19 - The Unabomber, 1996

The Unabomber, 1996

Ted Kaczynski, PhD, killed three people and wounded 22 with his mailbombs, but it could have been much worse. He managed to sneak a bomb onto American Airlines Flight 444 from Chicago to Washington D.C. It exploded but only caused a small fire. Otherwise, a Boeing 747 passenger jet might have fallen out of the sky on Nov. 15, 1979. As it is, the mad genius, whom investigators tagged as the University and Airline Bomber, would terrorize the country for nearly two decades. 

From his cabin in the woods in Montana, the reclusive mathematician would send out bomb after bomb, and letter after letter haranguing victims who had survived his attacks and taunting the media. No one was able to figure out who he was. And then, in 1995, in a blast of egotistical rage, he sent out a 35,000-word manifesto against technology and industrialization, which the Washington Post and the New York Times published in order to prevent the Unabomber from carrying out his threat to blow up a plane over Los Angeles. Someone recognized his ideas in that manifesto. It was his brother, David. And so, the brutal chess game between bomber and government came to an end as a family drama between two brothers, very much alike and yet different enough for one to give the other up for the public good.

One of the FBI's costliest investigations, Kaczynski was accepted into Harvard at the age of 16; 25 when he started teaching as a professor at U.C. Berkley.  When the FBI took over the investigation from the U.S Postal Service, they code named the incidend UNABOM (UNiversity and Airline BOMber).  To read more about this idiot and how he terrorized a nation, go here.  Sources: Time, Wikipedia

Shark Tries to Steal Kayak Fisherman's Fish

Okay, I'm going to say this guy was probably scared shitless.  Excuse my French, but I would have screamed for dear life if I was fishing on a Kayak and a shark jumped out of the water to take my fish.

Quoted - Winona Ryder on Being Bullied in High School

“I was wearing an old Salvation Army shop boy’s suit. As I went to the bathroom I heard people saying, ‘Hey, faggot.’ They slammed my head into a locker. I fell to the ground and they started to kick the shit out of me. I had to have stitches. The school kicked me out – not the bullies. Years later, I went to a coffee shop and I ran into one of the girls who’d kicked me, and she said, ‘Winona, Winona, can I have your autograph?’ And I said, ‘Do you remember me? Remember in seventh grade you beat up that kid?’ And she said, ‘Kind of.’ And I said, ‘That was me. Go fuck yourself.’”

It's crazy how much time has passed since Gmail came into existence.  In the short 9 years, it has gone from 1GB to 10 GB of storage, and so much more.  Check out this pretty cool chart courtesy of Mashable.
