Geoff becomes hammerhead eagle i thrust

The face painting was a great laugh. The whole episode of Top Gear Season 14, episode 2 (- the testing of the R8 vs the corvette) was great. In this episode they assembled an electric vehicle.

Here is a link to a page of videos. Watch the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, and 8th windows. The 4th - 6th are rubbish (at least to me).

Best Prank Ever

Friggin Tickets

I remember when I was five years old going to arcades checking out the prize areas. Hoping to cash my tickets in for a worthy action figure, I would save my tickets from one visit to the next. Every time I visited the number of tickets required to redeem for a prize kept going up. It was my first lesson in inflation. The only problem is those stupid tickets were worthless anywhere outside of Chuck E. Cheese.

Things haven't changed much. I was at Dave and Busters on Monday. On average, an arcade machine would provide around 8 tickets per token. It was 50 tickets for a piece of candy. What the? That's almost 2 dollars for a piece of candy the size of a jolly rancher. They are suffering some serious prize inflation.

Then I started wondering how I will handle taking my son to an arcade when he is old enough. I wondered if it would be better to steer him away from this money munching stupid ticket games. Nope, I think its an important life lesson...dream big, work hard, spend a lot of money, trade money for worthless tickets, and never reach your goal. Wow, life sucks for kids. You can lump in adults at Dave and Busters too, that place is a ripoff.

Dream man

"HISTORY

In January 2006 in New York, the patient of a well-known psychiatrist draws the face of a man that has been repeatedly appearing in her dreams. In more than one occasion that man has given her advice on her private life. The woman swears she has never met the man in her life.

That portrait lies forgotten on the psychiatrist's desk for a few days until one day another patient recognizes that face and says that the man has often visited him in his dreams. He also claims he has never seen that man in his waking life.

The psychiatrist decides to send the portrait to some of his colleagues that have patients with recurrent dreams. Within a few months, four patients recognize the man as a frequent presence in their own dreams. All the patients refer to him as THIS MAN.

From January 2006 until today, at least 2000 people have claimed they have seen this man in their dreams, in many cities all over the world: Los Angeles, Berlin, Sao Paulo, Tehran, Beijing, Rome, Barcelona, Stockholm, Paris, New Dehli, Moskow etc.

At the moment there is no ascertained relation or common trait among the people that have dreamed of seeing this man. Moreover, no living man has ever been recognized as resembling the man of the portrait by the people who have seen this man in their dreams.

The aim of this website is:
- to help those who have seen this man in their dreams and to foster communication among them;
- to understand who this man is and why he appears in an apparently pattern-less array of situations in the dreams of such diverse human subjects."

Trippy. Can't say I have ever had a dream about this guy. But I have had several dreams that repeat the same problem. I have also had several dreams where I can run faster than I ever imagined. Then I begin to run on my hands and feet, and I am blazingly fast. Still can't figure it out. Doesn't make any sense at all. Recently I saw a PBS special on hand walkers, and that took my dream to another level. I will let you google it.

Great song.

Surprised it wasn't ever as popular as it should be.

Stupid videos

I hate it when you do a search for a hot topic video, and youtube returns a titled video with a snapshot that looks similar to the video being searched. You click on the link, and some A$$ hat sitting in front of the camera giving his opinion on the topic. What the hell? I don't give a crap about your stupid opinion. If I did, I would have used the keywords "A$$ hat's opinion on topic ___"

Here are some examples, I wanted to find the Kanye West interruption speech:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MsPZC8ikenY
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1XC_vXz3U7g

After clicking on 3 worthless links, I find myself frustrated, and angry. Not only are the videos worthless, they waste your time, the people are so annoying you want to punch them in the face. Piss ants. How about titling the video properly so that it isn't misleading?

Here's an analogy: This would be the equivalent of me going to my tool box to get a screwdriver. Open the drawer, pull out something that looks like a screwdriver, and it changes to a hammer. And starts giving its opinion of screwdrivers in a transvestites voice. That hammer would get thrown hard. Suck It.

Freak Out

Next time I am in San Francisco, I am going to have to give this guy's recommendation a shot.



I can see both the crazy homeless person and my wife not knowing how to handle the situation.
