Nothing like a Good Trailer: Iron Man 3

Yes I know “Iron Man 2” was sub par. But even with terrible holes and writing “Avengers” somehow managed to be pretty enjoyable. This trailer looks considerably different from other recent Iron Man adventures:

Here’s to hoping that this and the new “Man of Steel” movie are as good as I hope they will be.

What is Happening on Your Flight

I do not enjoy flying at all. Originally it was only because I am 6′ 7″ and have to cram myself into a tiny space for a matter of hours. That is reason enough but then, if you add kids into the mix it becomes pure hell. Despite my burning hatred for the discomforts of flying I have found it to be a fascinating process and always like to watch the machinery functioning. I recommend this very educational video that goes over what is occurring during your flight:

Now I have more to pay attention to that will take my mind off the extreme pain in my knees. But it will still suck.

The Framing of Joe Paterno

I haven’t mentioned my view on something that was fairly big news a while back. There has been a great injustice perpetrated by the media (shocker, I know) and there is someone named John Ziegler, who I see as an honest man, who is trying to set the record straight regarding what really happened. If you have about 30 minutes to educate yourself regarding the truth and lies behind the Penn State/Sandusky scandal, watch this meticulously researched and detailed video. You will then know the facts behind how Joe Paterno was framed, stripped of his accomplishments and possibly led to an earlier grave than he otherwise would have been in a very unjust and undeserved manner.

Now go spread the truth.

Football for People Who Don’t Like Football

I was just discussing last night, as I watched what would appear to be a Victoria’s Secret concert that split time between a super boring first half of football and a power outage for the better part of an hour, that the Super Bowl is for people who don’t usually like football. The only reason Beyonce or Madonna would be doing the half time is that my assertion is true. Normal football fans are not generally Madonna fans. The pre-game for the Super Bowl is always filled with tons of human interest stories about the players. Many other games have these human interest stories (see Manti Te’o) but the Super Bowl ramps it up like crazy.

Well here is a video that spells out pretty well how they actually do things:

There is so much to hate about the Super Bowl, but I still watch because it is my last chance to see football until the fall after being tortured through the summer by baseball and other boring games.

Guy on a Buffalo

I am always one to admire great creativity where ever I can find it and a friend introduced me to a fantastic piece of creativity the other day. Apparently this band found these old videos from the 60’s or 70’s and they decided to write a narration song for the adventures. The results are nothing less than pure entertainment. Be sure to watch all his adventures.

Well I feel like I haven’t lived a complete life now. I need to get me a buffalo.

ESPN Commercials

In spite of their horrible reporting, hypocrisy and destruction of the lives of innocent people I do find many ESPN commercials to be entertaining. Come with me for a few minutes as I turn off my burning rage and watch this:
