Ok, what the hell. I was just going to post a nice funny video clip of a fat kid rapping, and then I decided to research him a little more. This kid actually has his own TV show!? What the HELL is this world coming to? Although this clip is definitely not as good as the viet rap video, it’s still pretty funny. If you know anything about this kid can you please explain what his story is? Thanks.
Crazy Rapping Kid
Hover Scooter

Just when I think I’ve seen the stupidest invention on the Internet, another comes right along. This time it’s the hover scooter. A $17,000 flying segway that allows you to hover a few inches above the ground while traveling up to 15mph. It has a kill switch similar to a jetski so the engine stops after you eat it. In addition, it contains a 4 stroke internal combustion engine that operates on unleaded gasoline…. simply ridiculous. Who the hell is going to buy this? Where the hell could you drive it anyway? Not only is it ridiculous looking, I bet it’s ridiculously loud…. I’d much rather have the beer robot.
Get Back Loretta & Frandino

First off, let me say that I rarely ever link to any Myspace pages (other than celebrity myspace pages), but I’m doing this as a favor for my buddy Frandino. Frandino isn’t his real name.. it’s Chris, but that’s besides the point. I always thought this guy would never amount to anything in life… in fact, we were even roommates at one time until I had to kick him out. He loves sitting around smoking ciggies, drinking beer and being lazy. However, recently he decided to started a company called A&R entertainment and began to promote & sign bands. Turns out, he actually found a good one called ‘Get Back Loretta’ … they band he signed has even won ‘best new artist’ at the 2005 San Diego Music Awards. So, as a favor to my friend Chris, I told him I’d give him some free publicity on my website (yes, i know.. i’m such a nice guy) … here’s the scoop on his band, and there’s also some free music to listen to. If you have Myspace, and like the band, please add them to your friends list
“Often described as an amalgam of The Beatles, Ben Folds Five, and the Cure, Get Back Loretta’s unpretentious nature is evident in a cutting edge sound that is both upbeat and refreshingly soulful. After less than two years as a group, Get Back Loretta’s engaging stage presence, prolific songwriting abilities, unique personalities, and powerful vocals have already begun to attract the attention of industry insiders. They have received rave reviews from absolute punk, made an appearance on FOX ROX (Fox’s underground music show), discussed their future goals on the local FM 94/9 Sunday interview with Tim Pyles, rocked a sold-out Troubadour with indie giant Circa Survive, and won the coveted “best new artist” prize at the San Diego Music Awards in 2005. In a recent review of the Get Back Loretta EP in the magazine San Diego CityBeat, Troy Johnson wrote, “I thought I had discovered the best unknown band in San Diego…Best out-of-nowhere goodness I’ve heard…” While we tend to agree with his assessment, the current success the band enjoys has its concrete genesis in the prior experiences of its members.”
In-N-Out 100×100

In-n-out burger is one of the world’s finest dining establishments. For those of you who have never been there, In-n-out makes one hell of a hamburger. Quite possibly the best on the planet because all the ingredients are fresh. They don’t even own a freezer…. anyway, they are also notorious for ‘customizable hamburgers’ … a double-double is on the menu (2 meats & 2 cheeses)… of course you can order whatever you want. I typically get a 4×4 (and one time ordered a 10×10) but these guys ordered a friggen 100×100 … that’s right, 100 pieces of meat, and 100 pieces of cheese… out of control. Here are some of their statistics.
- Total calories (extrapolating from info provided here): 19490 calories
- Total eaters 8 (2 girls and one guy who already ate dinner and only ate 6 patties)
- Most patties eaten by one person : I think I ate about 20. I think Nalin ate about 20 as well (including the raw ones)
- Time to finish : less then 2 hours
- Number of people who barfed : 1 (way to go Elena!)
How NOT to Clear a Crowded Classroom

So a professor had a crowded college class. The first day of class it was standing room only for about 20 students… he urged many to leave. The second week of class it was still over-crowded … So, as an incentive to leave, he offered students a B- if they just would stop showing up. Turns out he got fired… go figure. The article says he was trying to make a statement to the school.
Making Cows Jealous
This is one of my favorite videos of all time. I figured I’d post it the blog to let the world enjoy as well. I’ve been lacking on the ‘hot chick’ posts lately and figured I was due. She’s not that ‘hot’ really, but definitely has some big knockers! Really funny video, but not safe for work. (Although if your boss walks by while you are watching, I’m sure he’ll understand)
Wikipedia Bans US Congress

Go Wikipedia! Today wikipedia has blocked the United States Cogngress’ IP addresses from editing their resources. This is a BOLD move, and I love it. Apparently some member of congress were deleteing verified reports, censoring history of elected officials and adding flattering things about members of Congress that are unverified….. shady shady shady.
“The editors from these IP ranges have been rude, abrasive, immature, and show disregard for Wikipedia policy. The editors have frequently tried to censor the history of elected officials, often replacing community articles with censored biographies despite other users’ attempts to dispute these violations. They also violate Wikipedia:Verifiability, by deleting verified reports, while adding flattering things about members of Congress that are unverified.
The offending editors have been blocked. This RFC is needed to gather community comments. It is proposed that a one week block is not enough.”
USB Bracelet

Yep, a USB flash-drive bracelet.. the newest, latest invention in the tech world. This is pretty lame (in my opinion of course) – why the hell would you want to walk around with a USB bracelet on? I have one of these little drives, and I just keep it in my pocket. I guess they are hoping the bracelet trend continues to grow… whatever. I wonder if the USB necklace is coming next.
One Trillion Hits

Sometimes I don’t even know why I bother with crap like this. This site has no content, offers nothing useful, and yet I’m still wasting my time writing about it. Long story short, this kid made a bet with his ‘mum’ that he could get a trillion hits to his website (which again, has nothing useful except a picture of him w/no shirt on). I figure what the hell – I’ll send him some traffic … help the cause…. maybe one day he’ll get his 5 bux.
“Hi, my name is Mr Monkey I am allmost 20 and not very inteligent and I do not have lots of qualifcations. But my mate showed me how to make a website. Basically I made a £5 bet with my mum that I coudn’t get ONE TRILLION hits. so if we get one trillon vistors to this site I will earn £5 !!!”
Mario Piano
This is some pretty impressive stuff. I’ve seen a bunch of clips on the Internet of Mario themed music, but I think this asian kid takes the cake. This is completely unbelievable how well he plays, and he never misses a note or messes up. (having taken piano lessons for years, I can appreciate this sort of talent) The video is kind of long, but brings back some great Super Mario memories…. I especially like the music from the level where the flying fish jump over the bridge.
