As a kid I had both Legos and Lincoln Logs. I enjoyed them both, but if I had to pick a favorite, I think I would go with Lincoln Logs. The reason may surprise you. Both Legos and the Logs could be used to build things. They both provided hours of fun. My reason? Lincoln Logs tasted a lot better. Come on, don’t tell me I was the only one to chew on my Lincoln Logs! Comment if you ever put a Lincoln Log in your mouth.
Oh yeah, enjoy this Lego video from one of my favorite shows, Mythbusters. Lincoln Logs never broke apart when rolling them down a hill. Then again, I guess I never tried to roll them down a hill.
Mother’s Day is May 10th! Here is a classic video that simply reminds you to treat your mother right! I pity the fool who doesn’t follow this video’s advice. Mr. T once treated his mother with little respect and the judge forced him to wear 80lbs of gold chains around his neck for the rest of his life.
I’m a huge fan of Jack in the Box commercials. The mini-sirloin burger song gets stuck in my head for days! Check out this new commercial. I love this one! Am I alone? Leave a comment on this blog!
If you love the ShamWOW! you love Vince from the commercials! Sure, he had a little run in with the law in Miami, but really…what person hasn’t gotten into a fist fight with a hooker? Right?
Anyway, Vince also has a commercial for a chopping product called the Slap Chop. Check out this video! I wish I had this kind of time in my life!!! This is what the world needed!!!! This is the Slap Chop remix!!!
You may not know this, but this isn’t the first time there has been a Swine Flu scare. In the 1970’s, Swine Flu appeared in the US. The government started up a program to get the country vaccinated for Swine Flu, but there were side affects that some people died from! The vaccination plan was scrapped.
Check out these retro Swine Flu ads that came out in the 1970’s. They always say fashions come back into style every 20 to 30 years. I had no idea the illnesses were the same.
Three different people sent me links to the same video. I don’t know the story behind Marbles, but this video has over 100,000 views so somebody out there is watching.
The video you are about to watch is really amazing. It’s inspiring. It also shows that amazing and inspiring can be boring. Kyle Maynard is an amazing guy. He was born with a birth defect that left him without arms and legs. He was a great amateur wrestler and speaks around the country as a motivational speaker.
Recently, Kyle started training in Mixed Martial Arts. On April 25, 2009, Kyle had his first pro fight. I am not posting this video for people to laugh at. This guy shows more guts than I ever will show. If you ever say to yourself, “I can’t do it!” Remember this video and remember that a guy without arms and legs fought in a Mixed Martial Arts fight!
The problem? Mixed Martial Arts is fighting that involves not only wrestling (which Kyle can do), but boxing, kickboxing, ju-jitsu, and other martial arts that involve the arms and legs. While it is amazing that Kyle was able to get into a cage and fight, this may not be the best way to show off his amazing determination and unwillingness to let his handicap get in the way of his dreams. Plainly said, the fight was boring.
I wanted to see him win the fight, but it was quickly apparent that wasn’t going to happen. Actually, if I’m being honest, I thought something good would happen in Kyle’s favor in the fight. I wanted to see something amazing. I wanted to see Kyle overwhelm his opponent and make him submit. It never happened. I wanted the happy ending. Instead, I felt bad for Kyle.
There is an old joke that goes something like this…”why do dogs lick their own ****?” The answer? “Because they can!” Why? Because dogs are flexible! How do they get that way? You may think that they are flexible because that is just how they are. You would be wrong. For years, dogs have gained extra flexibility by studying Doga. That’s Yoga for dogs. Now, for the first time ever, Doga classes are opening their doors to not only dogs, but to their human owners as well!
There you go guys! Keep the dream alive! Check out this video of one of the strangest classes I have ever seen…..Doga.
I watched Saturday morning cartoons when I was a kid in the 80’s, but I NEVER saw this one! I can’t believe they made this into a cartoon. Before you say to yourself, “but they had toys for a lot cartoons.” Yes, that is true, but did they ever make a cartoon out of a toy???? If you know the answer to that question, leave me a message on this blog. Oh yeah, I just thought of one…GI Joe. Transformers might be another. Ok, so may be they did make plenty of cartoons out of toys, but either way, this one is CRAZY! Enjoy
