Attn: Cheap Storage Space

This was nominated on Consumerist.com as one of the Greatest Moments in Commercial History. I recommend this guy for storing ANYTHING you can't fit at your apartment or house.
If this blog is for business ideas, why don't we consider duplicating his idea?
And for those of you doubting this guy is for real, find him on "them internets" at www.jonesbigasstruckrentalandstorage.com.

Don't be a Christmas Failure!!



This is your scale on how to know how good your present is on Christmas morning. If they don' t react like this kid, then you have failed. (And if they are more excited then this, please video tape it and put it on youtube)

** The sister is my favorite because she really doesn't care for the 64 and you know she never played it, but she wants to be like her older brother so she copies everything he does. Truly classic.

After watching the real version, I recommend the remix:

Tryouts for Dodgeball

Blake wanted to post it, but I am adding my text. (This is Alex)

Is that the fastest our secret service can get? The guy got 2 shoes off and thrown at the President of the United States before anyone came running out the back. I mean, what if they guy had a more deadly weapon, he would have gotten 2 chances at striking down our president!

2nd- Congrats Iraq on being democratic, in the old world/way - that guy would have been shot for disprecting a leader. And who says were not winning the war!

3rd- This is the type of thing I am looking for in a President. Seriously, he went up at least 2% in my ratings for his agility to dodge the shoe.

4th - Please rewatch it and look at the Senator or whomever is next to him give his pathetic attempt at blocking the shoe. How embarassing, I mean John McCain could have gotten his hands higher and faster. Speaking of.....

5th- Why there be a obstacle course debate. All throughout the debate, McCain v Obama are trying to give their memorized answers while dodging shoes, food, pillows, etc.. Your telling me you wouldn't watch that? On another note, it's amazing that Bush still gets up everyday and does what he is asked to do. If everyone in the world was literally and figuratively throwing shoes at you, would you continue going to school or working long days for that company? Good for you George Bush and (Insert announcer voice) 'we'll see you on the next American Gladiators.'

Little Adolf?













I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I read this story about little Adolf. Either way, I'm sure you will find it as unreal as I did. Make sure to read the whole article to catch the name of his sister.

FYI: BCS Game Will Be Broadcast in 3-D


LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Sony Electronics and Fox Sports on Tuesday said they will beam the national college football championship game to 80 theaters in 3-D next month in the latest example of the sports world tapping into this new viewing technology.

Sony Electronics, a unit of Sony Corp, and News Corp's Fox will deliver live the FedEx Bowl Championship Series (BCS) national championship game between the University of Florida and University of Oklahoma on January 8.

The game will be shot from Dolphin Stadium in Miami using privately-held 3ality Digital's image-capture technology and transmitted live via Cinedigm Digital Cinema Corp satellite distribution network.

There will also be a 3-D viewing that day at the Paris Hotel and Casino's Theater des Arts in Las Vegas at a Sony-sponsored event during the Consumer Electronics Show.

RealD, which has rolled out 3-D systems in 1,500 theaters around with world, will also co-sponsor the CES event.

The college football 3-D event follows closely on the heels of other 3-D sports broadcast initiatives. Last week, the National Basketball Association said it was teaming up with Turner Sports to broadcast in 3-D a night of events associated with the U.S. sports league's all-star game in February.

And the National Football League also recently broadcast a game in a test for media and other guests between the Oakland Raiders and San Diego Chargers in three cities.

Mayne Street

I don't know if any of you have watched Mayne Street on ESPN.com, but it's a little show with our old friend Kenny Mayne. Some of the episodes are not that great, but I loved this one. The marriage counseling scene with Cowboy is especially entertaining.

Rocky on Wikipedia

I don't know how I randomly came across this, but the entry about "Rocky Balboa" on Wikipedia just killed me. I love how it has his life history and fights like he was a real person.

Hack-of-the-Week: Prank the Superbowl


With the big game coming next month, you may want to know how to hack the Superbowl. In 2007, Superbowl XLI featured the man who is a symbol: Prince. We all remember his classic halftime show (NOT!), but you may not have seen the other halftime performance. Zug.com is a website dedicated to pranks. They spent $40k pranking the Superbowl. This is amazing because the security around the Superbowl is just as tight for the President. Some readers may want to just watch the video, but I recommend reading the whole story if you have the time. It will teach you how to prank the Superbowl.

My Christmas present to you...

Christmas is fast approaching and we are giving to gifts to those around us. Well, when it comes to giving gifts to that special someone we have to be careful because as Jerry Seinfield said: "Whatever I give her, she will be bringing in experts from all around the world to detect the meaning of it." Thank Goodness for this video to help guide us and let us know what to beware of.
