Police dog training footage


This appears to be from somewhere in Western Europe. I can tell from thier screams.

AOL search terms: SomethingAwful edition


A while back AOL accidentally released 3 months of logs from its search engine. Those logs have made thier way around the internet.

The good folks at SomethingAwful have reduced it to the good parts, with some witty remarks thrown in for free.

Here’s parts 1, 2, and 3.

Straight out of Naked Gun


Today, CNN?s Kyra Phillips got caught, well, with her skirt down. Someone in CNN left her mic open and on the air as she went to the loo in the middle of President Bush?s speech commemorating the Katrina anniversary. So instead of getting the president?s remarks, CNN?s audience got that and Phillips in some girl-chat.

It was more interesting than what Bush had to say anyway.

How Many Lightbulbs Does it Take to Change the World?


Wanna help save energy and the environment? Don’t buy a hybrid. Buy a $3 bulb.

What that means is that if every one of 110 million American households bought just one ice-cream-cone bulb, took it home, and screwed it in the place of an ordinary 60-watt bulb, the energy saved would be enough to power a city of 1.5 million people. One bulb swapped out, enough electricity saved to power all the homes in Delaware and Rhode Island. In terms of oil not burned, or greenhouse gases not exhausted into the atmosphere, one bulb is equivalent to taking 1.3 million cars off the roads.

This is why Pandas are endangered… heart attacks.

Everything from the downright awesome, to complete douchebaggery.

The Best of Ari Gold


From another show you should watch. If you do watch, you’ll like this shirt.

How many t-shirts can you wear at once?


Thia guy aims to take it to the limit.

Till death…


A great way to start a long and happy marriage.

A West Brookfield groom was arrested at his own wedding reception Sunday on five charges, including assaulting a police officer.

That’s dexterity…


A dude solves a Rubik’s cube in 20 sec. One handed.

Go RVing


An oldy, but a goody. A Winnebago salesman’s outtakes. He cusses. Alot.

Colbert on Conan


Stephen Colbert was on Conan a while back. It’s a great interview all the way around, but of particular intrest to me, being from North Carolina, was the bit about barbeque. Y’all know what I’m talkin’ about.

Conan O’Brien Emmys Opening


A little Conan makes Hollywood’s pompous celebration of themselves worth watching.

Slo-Mo Home Depot


Improv Everywhere, the minds behind the Best Buy prank, target Home Depot this time.

We would sychronize our watches and then walk over to Home Depot and shop. At exactly 4:15 we would all begin moving in slow motion. We’d do that for five minutes, and then shop normally for five minutes as if nothing had happened. At exactly 4:25 we would all freeze in place for five minutes. When that was over we would go back to normal and eventually leave the store.
