Look! Moving Pictures!

Haven't posted in forever...sorry about that guys. I've been getting e-mails telling me to post more frequently or at least do so in a more coordinated fashion (like every Tuesday or something), but those were obviously from people who don't know me very well. My life philosophy? Anything you can take care of today will still be there tomorrow. I figure the only exceptions to this rule would be filing your tax returns and disposing of dead bodies. But let's be honest here--if you live your life to the fullest, you're going to be hard-pressed to avoid those situations anyway.

I've had a lot of people these last few days come up to me wondering if I'm okay. I figure it's easier to just answer that question here because I know many of you read this blog. I don't feel any need to rehash the situation, but if you know me you most likely know what's up. Here's your answer--Yes, I am fine. High school drama honestly seems rather silly to me at the moment, and when shit hits the fan all you can really do is just laugh and realize that there's a little over two weeks left. Maybe once I would have cared enough about these trivial things to be upset about them, but with so little time left there's really no point. Was that a satisfactory explanation? No? Too bad, casual reader!

And now...the actual blog post!

So I was trying to think of something to write about in this post and hit a case of writer's block. My friend Spencer Kisler suggested, rather cleverly, that I write about writer's block itself! What an extraordinarily original concept it was! Of course, I ignored it, but it was highly appreciated nevertheless. Speaking of Mr. Kisler, I feel obliged to inform my readers that he has an attractive sister. I can't attest to this myself, but I do have it on good authority. (That's for quitting Band, biotch!)

Moving on, I have a few videos for you guys to check out that hopefully will brighten your day a bit. So without further ado, here's a real-life Kung Fu Panda (Bear).



How sweet was that? The best part is, this wasn't faked, although I admit that was my first impression too. The Bear's name is Cloud, and he is a resident at a Zoo in Hiroshima, Japan. I feel like I could make a really distasteful joke about how he's the most cheerful thing to happen in Hiroshima for a while, but that would be rather crass of me.

The next video--wow, hadn't realized how suggestive the video preview was--is a spoof of the Black Eyed Peas' "I Gotta Feeling", which was played so much on the radio this last year that I'm sure it's the song deejays put on loop when they had to go to the john. Apparently they haven't been minding their probiotic cultures. Jamie Lee Curtis would be ashamed.



I cannot decide if the next video requires a lot of, or absolutely no, explanation. I personally find it utterly hilarious, so I'll unleash it upon you and hope you feel the same way!



After viewing this video, YouTube user Ray William Johnson (who I will later cover as one of my personal heroes), had this to say:

So many questions! Why is there a video camera in his bathroom? Why is he smoking in the shower? What is he smoking in the shower? Why is there shaving cream on his forehead? And why does he look like Bruce Willis from Die Hard? Honestly though, for serious, I am convinced this guy is the new Jesus. I mean, look at the way he looks into your soul! (Pause at 0:17 to see what he means)

Well that's it for me. I cannot think of a clever quip to conclude this post, so I hope you all have a wonderful Memorial Day Weekend! Make it memorable! Haha! Get it? Memorial - Memorable? Sigh. I'm in a slump guys, give me a break.
