So I went outside this afternoon and I am still cold. I have yet to warm up. We didn't get above zero today. This was the worst cold spell in these parts since 1996. I remember that year quite vividly because that was the year I lived right behind my high school. My right hand is a little blue from the cold. I am sitting here as I type wearing two pairs of sweats, two t-shirts, a sweat shirt and a stocking cap. While I was underneath some afghans(not the people) my cats came and tried to warm me up by laying on me. Now they are laying in the chair next to me keeping each other warm. It's supposed to break tomorrow in the evening. Saturday it is going to be warm. I laughed when I heard the news this evening talking about the cold spell effecting the inauguration on Tuesday. They said the high was expected to be 30F and people should layer their clothing. Right now 30 would be a tropical paradise. Well enough of my rambling about cold, you came here for links.
You know why movie villains fail at all their mass murder plots? It's because their plans are pointlessly elaborate. Here's a list of 6 of the most pointlessly elaborate movie murder plots. The Cube...I love that movie. It is just so random and involves math...I'm a nerd. Another reason that criminals fail to succeed is that they make so many mistakes. Here's a list of the 6 mistakes every movie villain seems to make. One of my favorite movies, Reservoir Dogs, fits into everyone of those categories. And here are some real life bank heists that could have been stolen from the movies.
Ever wondered what the presidents enjoy or hate to eat? Well here is an interesting slide show about the presidents' tastes. The lists covers Kennedy through Obama.
Here's a little video of how many Americans will remember the Bush administration.
So Israel wanted the U.S. to join in on a raid of Iran's nuclear facilities...not surprising. What gets me about this article is the announcement that the U.S. is currently working on a secret raid to sabatoge Iran's nuclear capabilities. It makes me think of playing an old school version of Madden Football where they would show the name of the play you ran before you snapped the ball. We are telling them our play. Good thinking, Captain Cuckoo Bananas! I loved your farewell address this evening.
For the first time ever, there will be a video game system in the White House. The Obama family has chosen the Wii. Great, now I am so anticipating the media coverage of the Obama girls playing with their Wii to deluge the nightly news.
Here's a blog that answers the age old question of who deserves to be punched. #78...I deserve to be punched.
I once toyed around with OK Cupid and was drawn back this week after I was alerted to this forum about a girl who met this total jerk and then had sex with him. It gets really interesting when the guy shows up on the forum. I can't believe there are rocket scientists like that out there.
Enter in your address or city and state and find out what is directly on the other side of the globe. For people in the U.S., the majority of us will have a sucky location. Now my dreams of digging a hole to China are dashed.Here's a flow chart to determine if like Ice Cube, you had a good day.
I hope this is the last list I post of things from 2008. This time it is the 25 sexiest things from 2008.
Wow...now I have seen everything. I guess this is good in case your first time wasn't quite like what you expected.
So did you really think that if you named your child Adof Hilter and give his sisters the middle names of Aryan Nation and Hinler(which probably should be Himmler) that the Child Protective Services wouldn't come to take them away? All this over a cake. People are idiots.
THIS IS THE GREATEST SOUND BOARD OF ALL TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TURN UP THOSE SPEAKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!! DIAMOND DAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Do you have nieces or nephews that need an attitude adjustment? Well, here's a Lego set that you should buy them.
Wow, who knew a 16 year old could fetch so much beer? I hope that is some top shelf brew and not that lame Red Dog.
I was looking up some information about volleyball so I can make my glorious return to coaching. I stumbled upon this at IMDB. I can't believe he only won one single award.
Have you ever wondered how many different ways there could be to die from electricution? Well here's a slide show that has diagrams of 30 possible ways.
I haven't eaten fast food in quite a long time. That is one of the best things about living in a small town; there aren't any fast food restaurants here because there aren't enough people but we do have a Subway. Anyway whenever they came out, I went to McDonald's to get a McRib. I think the last time I was at a McDonald's was to get a McRib. Here's a locator for McDonald's that still offer the McRib. The Simpson did a show satirizing how devoted people are to the McRib.
Want to know how military recruiters are still getting kids to sign-up? Read this exchange between a recruiter and another member of the military.
Well that is all I have for this week. I hope you enjoyed. Hopefully I'll be back tomorrow with a celebrity round up.
