Uber Beer Selection Flow Chart

Uber Beer Selection Flow Chart - other times I have no idea. I'm just a ship adrift. I wander from the ciders to the IPAs and back over to the stouts and around to the pales. Its on days like that I wish I had this handy flow chart for helping to decide exactly the right type of beer... at least the right section of the store anyway.

Jaw-Dropping Lunar Eclipse Over Tajikistan

Jaw-Dropping Lunar Eclipse Over Tajikistan - Tajikistan, a place I have never even flown over. Never even gotten close to. But apparently its a great spot for getting amazing lunar eclipses. Yeah, you heard me right, that is a Lunar... yes, I said Lunar, eclipse. The full moon is so bright in this footage it looks like its actually the sun - a solar eclipse. But no, its the moon.

No Ebola Jokes Got It

No Ebola Jokes Got It - Holy cow.  So, I used to have to remind myself not to joke about bombs in airports, because the jokes that you aren't supposed to be doing are always the funniest.  Always.  Write that down, its a maxim to live by.  Or not live by.  One or the other.  Regardless, check out what happens when a dork on a plane says, "HEY, I WAS JUST IN AFRICA AND I HAVE EBOLA!!"

Bucket List Extra Credit

Not too long ago I talked about my bucket list and the chance I had to check off an item from the list. The question I have is this - if you get a chance to do a bucket list item twice, do you get extra credit, or are you deducted for not completing the list first? It looks like I have a chance to circle the globe again. This time though, it will be the other way around... maybe that's a different item?

John Oliver Civil Forfeiture and a Trucky Trailer

Since I first mentioned John Oliver's new show a few weeks ago he has made magic happen over and over and over again. He has castigated the Miss America's pageant's claim that they are the world's largest provider of women's college scholarships. Napalmed the US's policy on drones. Investigated student debt. Begged Scotland not to leave the United Kingdom. Beseeched Peru to get on the ball wrt ISIS. But none of it was as funny or revealing as this reporting on the concept of Civil Forfeiture that was originally in a story called "Stop and Seize" reported by the Washington Post.

Teeter Totter Craziness

Teeter Totter Craziness - Teeter Totter Craziness - That's really all I have today. Currently hugging a toilet bowl. Not capable of much else... wasn't even able to watch this today although I tried. I recall that it was a great video all the same! hahah. Enjoy.

Cirque Du Soleil Meets Quad Copters

Cirque Du Soleil Meets Quad Copters - Cirque is truly fantastic. (Fantastique?) I've happened to pick up a show in Denver, Orlando and Las Vegas(? I lose track, LA? No idea.) My favorite memory of the show was heading to the door with my tickets in my hands and having a clown take the tickets and walk us all the way down to the stage. He then proceed onto the circular stage, and then to the center of said stage. Where he then placed the tickets in the middle of the stage... on the ground. And he then gestured that these would be our seats for the evening. So I headed onto the stage and sat down. It was a good evening out. And now that they are adding choreographed quad copters it is only going to get fantasticker. Or something. Here's the making of video for your enjoyment.

Mariele Neudecker Tank Works

Mariele Neudecker Tank Works - Mariele Neudecker apparently understands this better than anyone. Her art is a fascinating mix of sculptures and replications of three dimensional images. Neudecker takes mountains, ships, trees, shrubs and incorporates them into amazing atmospherical still lifes that come to life under watchful care. Feel free to learn more about Mariel Neudecker's work at her website.

High Five New York

High Five New York I cried I laughed so hard. This is the epitome of greatness.  Take one random guy....

Over Under Toilet Paper Discussion

Over Under Toilet Paper Discussion - And yes. I also am an avowed overrer too. And I too am going to begin folding my toilet paper extras in a v-shaped fashion just to give that high class, "just been cleaned" feeling. To all you underrers... the facts are all here for you to make the right choice. All you need to do is admit you need help, and we overrers will be here to help in a heartbeat.

A Guide To the Wrath of God REVISED

So, there is this fairly clever guide that walks us all through the various things that will get one killed by God in a number of different religions. Being a devout Christian I read it and chuckled at many of the entries and the wildness of it all. And then I noticed something... It's completely and totally wrong.

John Oliver My New Favorite Thing Ever

John Oliver My New Favorite Thing Ever - This is will be difficult to drive home correctly. With the right intensity and perspective. How to amp this at the right level. I need a volume 11 for this post. WHICH I GUESS I COULD DO IN ALL CAPS. But I don't know if even that will drive the correct insight to what I am wanting to say here. So, with that in mind. I'm going to say it slowly. And precisely. John Oliver. Is my new. Favorite thing. Ever.

Magically Annoying Magic Trick

Magically Annoying Magic Trick - Awesomeness. These two guys are my new heroes. Two guys, perpetrate their magic trick and leave. Over. And over. And over again. Fantastic.

Doodling is a Morning Shower Equivalent

Doodling is a Morning Shower Equivalent - A week or two ago I spent tons of hours in phone interviews and while deep in conversation I found myself doodling. And yet, hiring employees is THE MOST important thing I do at work. Literally nothing that I do is more important. Its just the most synergistically enabling thing possible right? But if I hire the wrong person - it could be the entropy enabling thing that I could do, right?
