So incredibly sad...

My heart just goes out to the people of Japan.  More so as the number of injured and killed just keeps growing!

Below is just an incredible video of the tsunami and the power of nature.  It's just amazing as the water level starts to rise in the streets and as, first, cars then trucks and, finally, buildings(!) drift by.

Happy Pi Day!

Celebrate everything 3.14...ad infinitum.  If you've never heard of Pi Day, it's about time you get with the program!  You can learn more about it here.

Hey, I think I've played golf with this guy before...

Just kidding.  He putts way better than anyone I've played with, but these videos sure are funny.


If you don't know who Ben Crane is, he's a golfer on the PGA Tour.

MADD for irony

Okay, this one's pretty funny too, and really sad at the same time...

A former MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) president was arrested for--you guessed it--drunk driving. And she wasn't just a little drunk.  Two breath tests put her blood alcohol between .234-.239 (almost three times Florida's .08 limit).  I guess she's not against drunk driving anymore...

Disturbingly funny...

I thought this Subaru Forester commercial was pretty dang funny.  But it was also one of the more disturbing things I've seen in awhile too... :P


By the way, I used to drive a Forester.  I thought it was a pretty good car.  Check it out if you're looking for a crossover type vehicle.  Mine didn't come with Sumo wrestlers though.
