Friday Funkfest. A recurring (almost weekly) flurry of quick hits, links, videos and thoughts. Clearly, the best way to waste time at work spend your lunch hour each and (almost) every Friday.
Back in high school, I did muscle isolation exercises and acquired the skill of wiggling my ears both solo and in tandem. To this day however, I have not been able to figure out how to raise just one eyebrow. Consequently, the above video makes me immensely jealous every time I watch it. (props to glitterfree taxidermy)
- This sweet action breakdown of the best football stadia in Europe gives me a great idea for a family vacation.
- Maaaaaaaaaaaaan, I wish I was living in The Land of Port right about now. I’m going to need to get sleep where I can find it as long as the Blazers are playing those late (to those of us not in the Pacific Time Zone) West Coast games.
- Bernie Madolff actually made an investment that turned a profit. Who knew?
- I don’t care how germ free the fancy-pansy Yankees new locker room is. They’re still dirty on the inside.
- I love Red Box. They innovated the game and actually get me to rent movies on occasion. Especially when I can get a large soda and a rental for a grand total of $1.07. Granted, it’s a little amazing that Blockbuster has never countered and done anything to reasonably allow itself to stay competitive in the marketplace. It would seem as though the biggest competition to Red Box is currently the Hollywood studios.
Tweet of the Week:
A TEA party was held below my window in the plaza park where were they when Bush was running up the national debt? (@SpeakOutOfTurn)
Lyric of the Week:
Take the pride in me, bring it to it’s knees (Isaiah 40 by Mike Crawford and His Secret Siblings)
