Michael Buble: Heckled by Mom + Surprise Duo
I found this charming video of the singer Michael Buble getting heckled by some kid's mom to the point where he actually lets the kid sing a duo with him.

The neat thing about the video is that the kid turns out to be a pretty good singer. Now, I don't know if the video was fake in the sense that the kid is a plant in the audience or if it's just an example of confirmation bias (i.e. the video is viral because the kid was a good singer instead of a mediocre one). However, if it is a real video, then it's a unique one.

So, what happens when you combine one guy with more juevos than brains, a high powered leaf blower, and office chair, and a stunt that smacks of Jackass 4: Amateur submissions? You get a video like the following.

Watch the floor of the ocean freeze solid!
This next video has some pretty amazing science behind it. It is actually one of the rare instances when the floor of the sea, despite the salt water around it, will freeze solid over a short area.
The effect is that, as an iceberg melts, it ejects a heavy brine solution of cold water that sinks to the bottom of the sea floor. As soon as this brine touches the bottom of the sea, it freezes all of the life there solid, including the unlucky star fish in the video.

Sexual Experimentation; The "Turducken" Experiment
I found this funny but somewhat disturbing cartoon online the other day. It's an "experiment" (probably sexual) between a turkey, duck, and chicken to make a "turducken".
If you enjoy cartoons such as this and want me to post more when I find them, just let me know by leaving a comment.

Junk in Your Trunk?
Have you got lots of junk in your trunk? No, not that kind of trunk! Not even an elephant trunk! I am talking about tons and tons of junk that you keep in the trunk of your car, or even in the trunk in your attic that is just taking up space and you don't know how to toss.
If you do and you live in Bellaire in Western Texas, you should call for Bellaire Junk removal. The people on the other end of the phone are experts at helping you remove junk from your trunk, or just taking the whole trunk period.
A guy named Rick posted on the website and said that the removal of the junk was fast, the team professional, and the junk was removed. You trust Rick, don't you? Men named Rick don't usually lie.
So, call today. If you don't you'll be sorry. If you do, you'll be happier. :)

Long Sleeve Tops from Aeropostale
This is another assignment from Blogvertise were I actually feel okay with recommending the product. This one is a plug for the Aeropostale site, specifically for long sleeve tops. I actually have a couple of shirts that are long sleeve tops from Aeropostale. Both of them are comfortable, fashionable, and super stylish. Aeropostale is actually one of my favorite places to shop. I always shop at the store though, but I guess it never hurts to shop online once to try it.
I have included a screen shot of the tops in the post. I am seriously thinking of buying one for Christmas. I think that a couple of the blue ones look spiffy.

Cool Online Site for Celtic Wedding Sets
Wow, I can't believe it. Blogvertise actually assigned me a task to write about a site that I could see myself visiting without being paid! This particular site has Celtic wedding jewelry on it. Just from looking at the site, the jewelry looks pretty awesome. I have included a screen shot below:
I have to say that, just looking at the rings in the picture, some of them look pretty snazzy -- like something out of Lord of The Rings. I also notice that they come in a range of styles and prices, so it's a good deal for someone on a budget.
So, wow, good call for once, Blogvertise. I think that I can actually recommend this website without having to resort to not-so-subtle sarcasm or mindless sentences to fill up space.

The Birds IRL: UC Davis Chancellor Katehi walks to her car
#UCDavis If you were a chancellor at a school (UC Davis in this case) and the students did this to you, this would be about the right time to start questioning your job security.
In this video from November 2011, Chancellor Katehi of UC Davis is scene walking to her car while a huge mass of students stares on in complete silence. It's surreal in how strange the moment obviously is for the Chancellor.
As a bit of background, during an earlier peaceful protest as part of the Occupy Wall Street movement, cops at UC Davis pepper sprayed several non-violent protesters. As head of the university, Katehi authorized the police presence at the protest and the removal of the protesters from the school grounds. The backlash by students, faculty, and the board of regents at the school towards Katehi for her decision was immediate and severe, with several sources calling for her resignation.
This protest was a way for the students to show displeasure with the actions of the cops in this incident.
Is it just me, or does this remind anyone else of a scene from The Birds by Alfred Hitchcock?
Bonus: Here is a video of the police pepper spraying the protesters.

How to be a king in your own home
Image by Lili-les-Bains via Flickr
Have you ever wanted to be a king? Well, I sure have. But, I was born poor ... and not inbred. However, good news for all you folks out there that actually have good dental hygiene: now you too can be a king! And, it doesn't even involve sleeping with your sister or having slaves work your land.In fact, if you are a big or tall man (and I mean big and tall ;), then you can be a king just by buying big and tall jeans! All you have to do is visit the website that I linked to and send me 19.95$ plus shipping and handling to cover ... uh ... my expenses or something. And, even if you don't visit the website, send me 19.95$ anyway. In fact, just send me some money, anything you can spare really ... or don't.
Actually ... do ... even if your kids go hungry.
If you do decide to check out the website, just remember that King Size has lots of jeans in every size to fit every stature. Also, they promise to never call you fat, just because you have a 56 inch waist. :)
King Size: your grandma likes them too!

IZEA Corporation: Secretly a Clown Troop Masquerading as a Company? Fortunately, no.
Image by zencohe via Flickr
Background: The IZEA corporation recently rejected my blog for the reason that "Your blog appears to exist solely for payment, or to post referral links." Here is my response.Update: The customer service team from IZEA contacted me and approved my blog after I complained. So, I should take this post down. However, I am not going to, because it's a funny post (although slightly harsh in the last paragraph).
My blog has over 700 (!) entries. It is nearly three years old. I have over 50,000 followers on Twitter. I also have nearly 80,000 friends on Myspace, over 1,000 friends on Facebook, presence on Digg, etc. Further, I have all types of posts, from short posts about videos I enjoy to well thought out long blog commentaries.
The blog DOES NOT, and I repeat, DOES NOT "exist solely for payment, or to post referral links", as you claim in your rejection of my site.
During my lifetime, I have made perhaps a few hundred dollars from blogging. Considering the thousands of hours that I have put into creating my blog, building traffic to it, making friends with other bloggers, etc., this works out to a pay rate of a few cents (or less) per hour. I can assure you that, if I had wanted to do something for the sole purpose of making money, I would have been much better suited taking a part-time job. In fact, the only reason why I even post paid entries is because I am signed up for a related website (Blogvertise) and, after months of inactivity, I recently received an email with a personal appeal from one of the employees for that company that asked me to reactivate my account because companies that advertised through Blogvertise had specifically requested to advertise on my website.
In light of these facts (many of which would have been obvious to anyone with half a brain that actually LOOKED at my blog instead of having a computer auto-reject it), I am left to conclude that your company has a load of buffoons working for it. Therefore, I respectfully request that you delete my account and refrain from contacting me in the future with any offers to write sponsored entries. I no longer wish to do business with your company.
Respectfully,
JC
P.S. The full contents of this email are going to be posted on my "shill" blog for all the world to see, including my 50,000 twitter followers.

Have you ever been a victim of methadone withdrawal?
Have you ever been a victim of methadone withdrawal? Well, neither have I. But, if you ever have been a victim of methadone withdrawal, you live in the United Kingdom, and you want help, you should click on the link above.
On the website for the company linked above, they detail some methods for methadone detox. What these methods are and how effective they are, I really can't say -- mostly because I have never had nor needed methadone detox. However, I'm sure that for people needing this type of service, they have a better than placebo rate of effectiveness. And, even if they don't, I will probably never know the difference.
So, click on the link above to end up in the good hands and hearts of people that care about you and want to help. Or don't. Again, I will very likely never know the difference either way.
If the detox method does work, write a comment below to let me know. I might just take up methadone for the pleasure of being detoxed from it later.

Scrubs: Not just for television anymore
I know that all of you, in all parts of the world (even ones without American television) have watched the series Scrubs at one time or another. For those of you who haven't this is a series set in a United States hospital that features a bunch of doctors that clown around at work, including a white guy who isn't funny, a blonde girl who is marginally attractive and not funny, a whipped black guy with a non-attractive Latina wife that is not funny, and a bunch of old people.
The good news is that the scrubs that they wear on the show (named after the doctor's uniforms) are not just for doctors anymore. Indeed, they have a great number of websites, including http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/categories/Scrubs/ that allow ordinary, also not funny people to purchase scrubs. So, if you're looking for a scrub store, especially one that caters to fans of the television series, or even one that courts terrible back-up players in professional sports, look no further.
Because, actually, if you do look further, we'll hunt you down. We know where you live.
And, even if we didn't we could use Google Maps.

What happens when you promise trust money and don't pay: Hamer v. Sidway case
I was reading an interesting case online the other day called Hamer v. Sidway. In this gem of a case, an uncle promised 5,000$ dollars to a nephew in exchange for righteous living by the nephew until he was 21. Ultimately, even though the nephew kept his promise, the uncle died without paying the sum of money, and the trustee of the uncle's estate refused to pay.
So, what happened in the case? Well, the link that I provided wouldn't tell me, so I had to search the case on Google. It looks like the nephew (Hamer) won the case.
Good for him. Giving up smoking is the hardest thing to do. I hope he wins a dollar.
Note: I am not a lawyer. I have moral values, and I don't like screwing people for the sake of money, nor do I like quibbling over things that have an obvious interpretation.

Will the Mormon church ever cease to exist?
Image via Wikipedia
This has actually been one of the topics with regards to religion that I have been thinking about a lot lately: will the Mormon church and religion in general ever disappear entirely? My answer is that I think it will, given enough time. Here are some reasons:1. Statistically speaking, most religions that people have ever believed in have gone "extinct", just like most species that have ever existed on the earth are now extinct. Based on sheer probability alone, the chances of the Mormon religion surviving another 500 or 1000 years are pretty slim.
2. I think that all religions are in trouble of extinction due to advancements in science. To me, the push of science will continue to constrict the space that religion is able to exist in until most of the supernatural parts of religion are eliminated. It used to be that people accepted religion because they wanted answers: why do we have lighting? why do people do bad things? what happens when we die? Before science, the only source of the tough answers to questions like these was from religion. Now, we have already answered many of these questions, including the one about lighting. And, we're on the cusp of answering many more of these question.
A specific example of this that I'm reminded of comes from FMRI studies of the brain. The amount that this field has progressed in the last 10 years or so is astonishing, and it continues to advance every day. Among other things, scientist who study the brain using FMRI (among whom I have many colleagues) have been able to show quantitative differences in the brains of people with autism, depression, and schizophrenia. Remarkably, scientists have even been able to show differences in the brains of people with conditions once ascribed to "personal choice", like sexual promiscuity -- which calls into question how much conscious control people have over conditions like sexual addiction.
The point is that, as more and more of these questions -- particularly moral ones -- end up with scientific answers, religion is going to have a harder and harder time finding a niche, especially as this information is made increasingly accessible to the public and the public in general becomes better educated (especially in developing nations).
3. The Mormon church has the unique and undesirable position of having it's origins in recent history. While other religions, like the Protestants and general Christianity, have the cloak of time to protect them somewhat from scrutiny, most of the events of the Mormon origin story happened recently enough that written records were prevalent.
So, my guess is that Mormonism will one day cease to exist. It will be interesting to see if time proves me wrong or right.

Twilight Moms: Double Standard?
I found this pic online the other day that points out, quite correctly, that there is a double standard for moms who are fans of the Twilight series of movies and books. See, if this was a bunch of guys screaming for a 17 year old girl, then someone would call the cops.
However, I don't really see this as accurate. I've known a few men in my day that had crushes that were, shall we say, less than age appropriate. Back when they were underage, I knew more than one guy that thought that the Olsen twins were hot. Also, there are guys that like the Disney Channel stars, etc.
So, while the picture and caption are funny, I don't think that they're accurate.

Group Projects: What They Taught Me
Here is a funny image that I found online recently: what group projects were supposed to teach me versus what they actually taught me. Having done more than one group project during my career, this image is spot on.
So, so true.

Cool Science: Mirage effect helps researchers hide objects
Image via Wikipedia
I found some cool science on Youtube a few days ago that I wanted to share. In this video, heated carbon nanotube wires use the "mirage" effect to help hide an object in water. In this effect, the rapid heating of the wire (caused by the resistance to the large amount of current passing through it) causes a change in the index of refraction of the water, which bends the light passing through it. All in all, it's a pretty cool video. Related articles

Finding a dentist for a trip to San Antonio
I am planning a trip to San Antonio during some point in my remaining life (or not), and I am trying to plan ahead for what might happen if I need to services of a good quality emergency dentist while I am down there. Fortunately, I need worry no more. I have found a San Antonio Cosmetic Dentist that I think can help out if ever need it. This dentist, named Dr. John Moore, is the dentist that I had in mind, should I ever need to get some work done while down in San Antonio. Just to look at the man, he looks like a great man -- likely on par with Caesar and Napoleon. Also, he has a great smile, so I KNOW that he's a good dentist. After all, would a smiling man ever lie to you? I think not.
In other news, my trip to Denver might be delay as of late. I thought about flying out there for vacations, but my arms are too tired (yuk yuk). If you have any suggestions of other places that I could fly to without tiring myself, please leave them in the comment section below.

I Made A Multi-Belief Necklace
So, which of the many, many gods that supposedly rule the afterlife is the real one? Are they all real? Is only one real? Are none of them real?
Well, why do you have to risk offending any of the many gods that people worship? In this video, some guy named Edward Current makes a "multi-purpose belief necklace". Among other things, it has a lucky rabbit's foot and a block of wood. LMAO!
So, do you think that the guy's safe, or is he going to get zapped in the afterlife?

I'm Thinking about Buying Some New Jeans
I've been thinking about adding to my outdated wardrobe lately. Not only would this allow me to do laundry even more infrequently (as if 3x per year was that taxing -- just kidding), but it would also allow me to make points with the ladies! My most immediate need is to buy a couple new pairs of jeans. I found one website with a ton of clearance jeans on it that are a pretty good brand (Aeropostale), but I am wondering if I should try to buy clearance at the mall or inside the stores directly instead.
Once I find some new jeans, I need some more casual shirts and a new pair of shoes. The shirts that I have right now are serviceable, but the are starting to get increasingly worn.
For your viewing pleasure, here are a few pictures of the jeans that I found on that site.

Wonder Girls (원더걸스) - Be My Baby
I don't know why, but there is just something about the Wonder Girls -- a pop music group featuring five really cute Asian girls -- that just gets my blood going. If you're not a believer yet, check out this video and see what you think: "Be My Baby".
If you're a guy and you don't find that hot, you might be batting for the wrong team.

Is There Such a Thing as a BAD Lingerie Website?
I have been wondering the question in the title to this post as of late: is there really such a thing in this world as a BAD lingerie website? For example, take this little gem of a website that has valentines lingerie on it.
Just to look at the site, the first thing I notice is that the girls are beautiful. Well, I guess that goes with the territory, unless you had a site dedicated to lingerie for BBWs. In that case, I guess I would be tempted to gouge my own eyes out.
But, seriously, can you think of one example of a bad lingerie website? Can you give me one example of a site, selling lingerie, that has made the world a worse place to live? Lingerie sites bring so much happiness, so much joy to the lives of horny guys everywhere, that I don't think that you can. We guys need sites like this one, we can't live without them. I can live without food, I can live without water, I can live without air, I can even live without food, but I can't live without sites that sell sexy lingerie.
True story.

Sometimes, it's hard being rich, as this new video from College Humor points out. Check out the hatred and discrimination faced by the 1% of the population in this country that controls 43% of the wealth.
Doesn't this video just make you want to hug the 1% and steal their wallets?

Happy Holidays from Our Friends at Blue Sky Scrubs
I just wanted to wish you Happy Holidays from our friends at http://www.blueskyscrubs.com/. They have really missed being on my blog I guess, so they asked me to write another entry for them. Since I'm not doing anything constructive at the moment, I thought that I would oblige.
If you haven't heard of it, Blue Sky Scrubs is an online company that sells scrubs. If you don't think that this sounds amazing, that's because you're stupid. I mean, who wouldn't want to see some hot girls in nursing uniforms on an internet site? Of course, the uniforms aren't really what you would think, and some of the girls aren't really that hot; but it's the principle of the thing.
You should go check out their internet site today, unless you like to sniff glue. In that case, you should go to the doctor.

How To Impress a New Girlfriend: First Time at Your House
Not many people realize the impact that bringing a new girlfriend over to your house for the first time can have on a relationship. Far from being inconsequential, the experience can make or break a relationship on down the road (maybe). So, be sure to impress your girlfriend THE FIRST TIME you bring her to your house. Here are some tips:
1. Have a nice bed spread: Even though guys don't mind living like slobs (probably), girls notice little things like the comforter that's on your bed or the size of your change jar. With this in mind, consider trying something a little flamboyant, like polka dot bedding sets. If you impress her early with your bed spread, she won't mind spending time there down the road (unless she's secretly gay).
2. Decorate your bathroom: Another area of the house that is essential to impressing a new mate is the bathroom. Since women can spend practically hours a day in the bathroom, the more decoration that you put here, the better. Although traditional works well in this area, a purple bathroom is a nice surprise for any woman when she is scoping out her new love.
3. Have a snazzy rug: If you don't understand this one, don't worry -- most guys don't understand the importance of a nice rug to a woman. Whether on your billard ball head or on the floor of your home, every woman likes a nice rug much better than a bare floor, including a nice puzzle rug.
Lesson: make sure you have a nice house (and lots of money) to impress a new girlfriend.
