Who is the girl with the mad skills?

      June 30th, 2008

An actress in a Gatorade commercial. The clip is a masterwork of “viral” marketing, essentially an ad aimed at touting Gatorade, but without actually mentioning the company. With viral video, marketers try to create a pop culture buzz that eventually becomes associated with a product.[1]

True or not, it’s a sweet video.

For My Mom

      June 29th, 2008

I am posting this because I’m pretty sure my mom will love it! It’s titled, “Best Man of Honor Speech EVER!”

Because Mom will ask, this is what Amy said regarding the video post:

“UNBELIEVABLE!!!! This is my Man of Honor’s speech from my wedding on April 28, 2007 in Sanibel and Captiva Islands, Florida. In this magical moment, I seriously felt like my heart was going to explode! It is time to share this unbelievable brilliance with the world! It is a true testament to love, friendship, and catapulting life to new levels of amazing brilliance! Enjoy!”

The Adventures of Cousin Dani

      June 27th, 2008

Cousin Dani, world traveler, has provided WC[1] insight for the less informed:

TP: To flush or not to flush?

After you get over the confusing of entering a “toilette” and not, in fact FINDING a toilet, one must figure out how exactly this new form of toilette-ing works. Typically in Morocco there is an intimidating white, ceramic object about 2 feet sqare on the ground inside the WC. There are two “foot platforms” with traction on it, and then a modest hole positioned behind the platforms. The trick is to position yourself properly on the traction to avoid a) slipping and falling (thoroughly un-favorable and endearing event), b) keeping your trousers dry (skirts, ladies, are by far simpler than anything with legs), and c) keeping your balance without touching the walls which are typically claimed by the flies in the bathroom (talk about a challenge… let’s just say when flies start dive-bombing parts of one’s anatomy that doesn’t usually see flies, the game gets a whole lot more interesting…)

You really should read the entire post … it will remind you to appreciate the glory of western society toilets! I can assure all that, in my efforts to “go green,” NOBODY gets to mess with my toilet. I’m fairly partial to my showers too.[2]

  1. WC is short for “water closet” which is British for “bathroom”. []

    Welcome ...
    ... to my little corner of the internet. My blog's greatest asset is it’s auto-magically random randomness. A record of a few of my life observations, spiritual ponderings, and goofy anecdotes, I hope you find something that tickles or inspires you.

    I also hope you leave a comment because, heck yeah, they’re fun! For the record, I believe in God. While I am far from religious, I strive to be profoundly spiritual. And, uh, yeah … I fall down a lot!
