Sweet Ride


John and Robin Gray use the Airstream kinda as a traveling store to sell their wares when they go to the Marburger Farm Antique Show.  This is probably not the best description so I would suggest you check out their website which has an article about them from Romantic Homes. The inside of the Airstream Trailer is a little over the top which is probably what makes it soooo romatice! The car though is kick ass.

Groomsmen Wedding Dance

There are alot of choreographed wedding dances out there, but I LOVE this one because of their AWESOME dance moves. Who knows though I haven't seen Justin Bieber's "Baby" video so this could be the actual dance moves!

Loving CNN Photo!

I don't know what it is, but I am loving CNN Photo right now. Seems the format may be following the iReport format with independent photographers posting stories.  Not super clear on this, but it is my best guess.

There are other interesting articles, but it would take me all day to list them so just go check it out for yourself!

"Your Stripper Name Should Be Stormy"

A few people (like 2) have posted the Vinyl Windows are Great! video on their Facebook today. It made me go back and track the video to the creators website Building Revival which I am totally digging just because of the names of their different sections. Like Barn Porn and Houses Gone Wilde just to name two. The newest barn post is about a round barn in Montana that is kick ass! It doesn't seem to be the most navigable site, but the post are interesting and I like how the guy writes. The title for this post I pulled out of his post It's Time to Start (Weather)stripping.

History of Rap Pt.3

I don't know why I am so amused by two white guys who are not rappers rapping, but it makes me smile!

76 Slaves...

is how many I have working for me according to the Slavery Footprint. It looks to me to be modeled after the carbon footprint calculators and uses your answers to specific questions to calculate the number of "slaves" you have working for you.  My seems to be higher than average, but that is probably because of all my electronics and jeans! I don't know how they factor in replacement of items so that may have made mine high since I tend to hold on to things for years.

To Save Day Light or Not?



 I was perusing the Morning Cup O' Links on Mental Floss and came across a link to this video explaining Day Light Savings Time.

Lioness Rescues Cub

This was the cutest thing ever! From the pictures it appears the cub fell over a cliff or something and the Mama climbs down and rescues it.  So freaking cute! I tried embeding one of the photos, but it was to much work and I gave up.

Are You Worried About a Zombie Apocalypse?

Well don't fear because from reading the extensive articles on the subject (I looked at 2) if you are prepared for any disaster you are probably covered for zombies! You may just need to add some weapons for protection from the undead. Below are the two articles I glanced at.

Preparedness 101: Zombie Apolcalypse, CDC
How to survice a zombie apocalypse, CNN Money

I am not really sure why CNN Money has a article on zombies, but whatever.  It talks about cross bows which are awesome! Between the earthquake video I posted yesterday and the advice for zombies I think I need to work on my Bug Out Bag and Bug Out Vehicle. They need to be in place for any man made or natural disasters. Do you think a zombie apocalypse would be man made or natural?

Washington Monument During Recent Earthquake

Freaky! The video was provided by the National Park Service and don't try and fix your computer because it doesn't have any sound!

PETA launching a Porn Website

Yes, that is right the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals have requested a .xxx domain! I think they believe this will appeal to a new audience and that they are already producing racey images that will find a good home here.  WTF? Who thought this was a good idea? They were a little to out there for me before this, but I think this is the icing on the cake.  I don't have a problem with their message, I just think sometimes they try to convey is a disturbing manner to garner attention. For additional information check out the Huffington Post's article PETA'S Porn Website to Promote Explicit Photos that also include images that are most like NSFW.

Heading Down South to the Land of the Pines

I love these guys and was so happy I finally got to see them in NOLA in April at their last show for the  Railroad Revival Tour. Ketch Secor talks a little slow in the video sometimes, but I still love their music and this is a good taste of their music.
