Interview with the Future

I posted yesterday about a video where a guy "interviewed" himself 20 years in the pastFunny or Die has a pretty funny response video, but it doesn't end quite the same:

Breaking Bad season premiere sneak peek

Saw this a couple days ago, but couldn't embed.  Regardless, here it is.  Makes reference to the end of Season 4, so don't watch if you haven't seen it.  I don't know why you'd want to anyway.

London Olympics will feature first amputee runner

Oscar Pistorius, a double leg amputee, has won a spot on South Africa's track team.  He will compete in the upcoming Summer Olympics in London, racing in the individual 400 meter race.  He runs on carbon fiber prosthetics (which some see as an advantage) and will be competing with able bodied athletes.  It'll be interesting to see how it goes, and it would certainly be nice without any controversy.

Happy 4th of July!

Apparently America became independent from British control on July 4th, 1776 or something.  All I know is that every year when July 4th rolls around, I can expect some great food, drinks, and outdoor fun.  So happy 4th of July!

Nick Offerman (he really should just legally change his name to Ron Swanson) provides a list of 25 other things you should do on this holiday; without a sidearm most of these won't be possible:

  1. Shoot your own dinner entrées.
  2. Drink American beer while it's fresh.
  3. Carry a sidearm into church.
  4. Shave your pubes into an American eagle.
  5. Place a beef-jerky bouquet on John Wayne's grave.
  6. Drive an appropriately sized truck.
  7. Read the national edition of USA Today.
  8. Make a healthy living simply playing the children's game of soccer.
  9. Visit the historical home of Laura Ingalls Wilder and drink a half pint of Old Darlin'.
  10. Urinate in North Dakota.
  11. Consume USDA-certified meatstuffs.
  12. Learn about the Bible in science class.
  13. Gape at the majesty of California's giant redwoods while watching Ax Men on an iPad.
  14. Carry a sidearm into an antique-furniture store.
  15. Stand at the South Rim of the Grand Canyon and contemplate the grandeur of the combination safe full of sidearms in your nearby RV.
  16. Go an entire week eating nothing but corn-syrup-based comestibles.
  17. Appreciate firsthand the natural beauty of American women, particularly my American wife.
  18. Not hear any Dutch accents.
  19. Stand at the northern border and pass gas into Canada.
  20. Secede from the union and form your own island state. (Still working out the bugs in this one.)
  21. Watch a WNBA game live and revel in the physical prowess of women who know what the human body is supposed to look like.
  22. Catch a largemouth bass, release it, then drive to McDonald's in a Hummer and step up to a delicious McRib.
  23. After that delicious McRib, hum "I'm Lovin' It" while carrying a firearm into a Buddhist temple.
  24. Become obese, then immobile, and get famous for it.
  25. Appear on television and get all the money and tail you could ever dream of by becoming a televangelist.

3.2

That's the % chance the Phillies have of making the MLB playoffs right now, according to one statistical analysis.  Good thing I publicly gave up on them the other week!
