I know I’m not the first to post a link to this video but it’s fun to see. Recently a couple hundred people froze in place at the same time inside NYC Grand Central Station. It’s not a protest, just a fun prank. Enjoy!
Also available on YouTube.
I’m not the first to find this series of videos but I had to share it. This is a great site where they “blend” various objects not meant to be blended.
Items such as a golf club, hockey pucks, cellphones, a garden rake, an iPod, golf balls, marbles, and various other things. Who would have thought this would be entertaining, but it is!
Mind you its essentially an ad for this blender used in smoothie shops, however it is incredible to see objects like the iPod below get chopped into small bits. Kids don’t try this at home!
Here is video from CNN on 9/11/2001, live (time condensed) video as it happened that day.

The horrific, evil attacks on this day five years ago should never be forgotten. Even more so the sacrifice and heroic efforts of those on Flight 93, NYFD, NYPD, PAPD, all Armed Forces at The Pentagon, and civilians in NY and D.C.
The still photographs in this video I found on YouTube captured some of that day and immediate days afterward. Most of these images I distinctly remember from 9/11.
Through the magic of editing someone turned a simple scene from Star Wars into showing that Darth Vader has a sense of humor. Enjoy.
Now and then a baseball manager entertains the crowd by throwing a tantrum on the field arguing a call. Some classics from Lou Pinella come to mind as well as Billy Martin and Earl Weaver. But I have to say this video from Sunday is currently the best manager explosion I have ever seen. This guy lost it like no other manager that I can remember in the past decade. His name is Joe Mikulik the manager of the Colorado Rockies single-A minor league affiliate. Here is a good breakdown of this particular blowout.
1. Aretha Franklin should have sung the “Star-Spangled Banner” by herself. Aaron Neville’s singing made me wonder if his mic was broken.
2. Why in the world was Tom Brady doing the official coin flip? Aren’t there plenty of other famous people to do this? Did the NFL think the ratings would stink if they didn’t have the Patriots there?
3. Watching the Super Bowl on an HDTV is good. Watching Mick Jagger and Keith Richards in HD is bad. Really bad. Downright disturbing. One of the few drawbacks of HDTV. Plus did anyone understand what he was singing most of the time?
4. Any high school football team could manage the clock better that the Seattle Seahawks did at the end of both halves. They looked better overall in the game, but its the scoreboard that matters.
5. MacGyver is back! Here is the commercial. One of the better commercials last night.
6. Other good commercials included the Careerbuilder.com Monkeys in the Office, the Caveman FedEx commercial. More Commercials here at Google Video.
7. The game did have its moments. The Steelers habit of throwing in a few gadget plays is always fun to watch, especially when it ends in a game breaking touchdown to Hines Ward.
8. Yet again the officiating crew made some horrible calls that seriously effected the momentum of the game.
9. Steelers owner Dan Rooney grabbed the trophy before they even got to the official presentation. Mike Tirico had to make him put it back.
10. In the end the NFL got what they wanted a storybook ending for Jerome Bettis’ career.
