And Hayden Christensen still gets out-acted

When you install Blue Ox towing or other tow products, your Jeep will serve its purpose as a tow vehicle. But what if it's the other way around? This guy bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee but had been towed a number of times. Out of his frustration about the lemon vehicle, he just sang his heart out and made a song about it.

My wife performed burlesque at Coney Island last night. It was fun. We also saw this lady do a burlesque act as a yeti. Comedy dancing isn't easy, and she was quite good. Here's a video of it which is obviously nsfw.

Cool! As soon as I saw the BB-8 toy and the regular Spero toy, I figured someone would use them as wheels for a remote controlled car, that could do things regular ones couldn't.

The first of it is kind!

I had to watch it with the sound off. Did he actually write some code to sync the balls so he can give specific directions in order to rotate and the like?  Or is it more he tells them all to go in one general direction and then it hopefully responds correctly?

He explains it near the end, there is an app that will control 4 sphero balls at the same time.

I liked Mean Tweet the first time I saw it.  Now it's getting so boring.  A local car dealership decided to steal the concept for their radio ads.  I have a suspicion they're just making up the tweets.

I've seen some of those mean tweets myself, and personally I think some of them cross the line from mean to just... I don't know how to describe it but I just can't believe some of the things people would say about celebs they hardly even know.

Twitter is like HIV.  It's really ugly and horrible and has no reason to exist except to be ugly and horrible.

The Onion does humor from time to time.  They have a video series of movie reviews called "The Onion Film Standard with Peter Rosenthal".  They're a mixed bag, but most are pretty good.  The Shining is my favorite.

Other good ones include Hunger Games Catching Fire, 12 Years A Slave, Ghostbusters, and Gone Girl.
