Must Watch: Breaking News! The Three Little Pigs Boil Big Bad Wolf Alive!

Wow, this has got to be the best advertisement I've seen so far this year, it definitely surpasses the 2012 Superbowl ads.  The following ad is for The Guardian newspaper over in the U.K., and it uses the famous fairy tale, The Three Little Pigs to demonstrate how their news team would cover every angle of a crime.

So pretty much, the 3 little pigs are arrested for boiling the Big Bad Wolf alive which in turn causes a huge controversy expanding to every social media network available, the public gets in on it, and the pigs go to trial.

Overall, The Guardian covered the crime, did a pretty damn good job getting their message across, and the video has gone viral within a matter of days.  You can't get any more awesome than that.

The Neverending Story in Real Life!!!

I don't know why, but this image is stuck in my head.  I wanted to post it earlier this morning, as it reminded me so much of one of my favorite childhood movies, The Neverending Story.

There's a point in the movie where the character, Atreyu heads to the Swamps of Sadness to see the ancient Morla, the wisest being in all of Fantasia.  Well, his horse Artax is overcome by the sadness of the swamps and ends up sinking into the mud.  Artax doesn't make it :-( - I cried.

But in this awesome true story... the horse lives!!!!

After being stuck in the mud for three hours, Astro was freed from the mud yesterday!  According the guardian, Nicole Graham was enjoying an afternoon ride on the beach when all of a sudden the ground gave way and down went Astro.  He was freed with the help of a tractor and harness.  Check out the amazing rescue here.
