Coolest Hockey Shot Ever!

It's like watching the Mighty Ducks movie. This kid is sick.



"Oliver Wahlstrom's shootout attempt in the Boston Bruins "TD Bank Mini 1-on-1" competition begins as expected: Deliberate skating to the puck before picking up speed into the zone. But once he gets between the faceoff circles ... well, let's just say we wouldn't have been shocked to see him pull a rabbit out of his helmet before sawing a woman in half. This is hockey magic." -- Yahoo! Sports

Music Video: "Haven't Met You Yet"

Besides being a Bublé fan, I think this the story to this song is really great. I think everyone runs through all of the possibilities in their head when they meet someone for the first time. It's crazy but we love to dream.

2081 Movie Trailer

This looks like a really great film. I'm excited to see how they handle the story and if it becomes too preachy.

2081 (2009) Trailer


"Produced for $100,000, 2081 runs 25 minutes. Director Chandler Tuttle has referred to the movie as "a poetic tale of triumph and tragedy, an unbridled tribute to greatness — great art, great music, great dance, and the magnitude of the human spirit."

The Revenge of Balloon Boy

It's not the fact that his parents are crazy or they tricked the whole world into thinking that their boy might be dead. Hell, I was glued to CNN the whole. It's just crazy that our culture is eating this up. Seriously its only been a week. Enjoy.

Awesome Blogs: Living Craigslist


Desperate times call for desperate measures or that is what I would like to believe.

The dreaded recession has beaten some of us way down and a few haven't even had the chance to start running. Yes, college grads of '09 found a market that couldn't afford them. Plus jobs were in short supply and the old line, "Hire me, I have a college degree!" couldn't get you a gig at McD's.

Too bad no one told them that it's just a $100,000 piece of paper with their name on it. So my friends went home or worked 3 part time jobs to get by. It's the kind of stress a 22 year old doesn't need.

Well one of these young adults was fed up and announced, "I'm going to live off of Craigslist for a year." And it quickly became a running joke but he held on to the idea and started a blog.

"Good luck," I said wishing that I could join him on his wacky venture, "I would do it... if I didn't have a job already."

Well a few months later he's in San Fransico living with people he met on Craigslist and you can read all about his crazy idea at Livingcraigslist.com. We're taking bets to see if he makes it. I think he's got a good shot and book deal with Oprah.

Music Video: "Sexy Chic"

Let's get this straight. I don't like Akon but Guetta and him have come up with a groovy tune. Yet "Sexy Chic" (which is the radio friendly version) is probably one of the most womanizing videos I've seen in a long time. It's barely PG-13.

David Guetta ft Akon - Sexy Chic

I can't stop listening too...


"That’s Not My Name (RAC Mix)" - The Ting Tings

I wasn't a fan of the original song until I saw them perform it live. It's supposed to be a rock song and not some poppy piece of crap, but the remix is smooth and juicy. I dig it and love the synths.

Remix It: Shakira - "She Wolf" (feat. T-Pain)

I posted the original video a while back and the remix is okay. But seriously, T-Pain's flow is kind of nice. You gotta love to hate this guy, nappy boy!

The Facebook Facelift?



"The Facebook Facelift is a self initiated project to challenge the form and functionality of Facebook. It's streamlined, structured, linear interface is more comprehendible, enhancing the user experience and absorbability of content." -- Behance Network

Well here we go again (sort of) and I don't know if I like it. Facebook is always making changes and most of them are not really for the better. I mean... "Don't fix something that isn't broke." It really just needs to be SUPER user friendly and nearly fully customizable concerning what kind of information you want to have published and to who. (sigh) Well this version looks pretty.

Simplify Your Life


I carry a list of goals in my pocket and I keep a daily list on my iPhone. I have a personal mission statement with a list of 5 and 10 year goals. I even have a life achievement list. Well it's not that I'm crazy. I just understand that without having some sort of set destinations I'm due to wander through life waiting for death to catch up with me. I'm not here to watch. I'm here to play.

But... my problem is that my lists get too long and I forget to add important things... like, "Be nice to your girlfriend." Trust me, these things are important too.

Well ThirdAge put together a great list of 50 Ways to Simplify Your Life. And WalletPop does an excellent job of summing up this list. I suggest you read them both and try to apply some of the lessons to your own life.

Basically, it comes down to A) identifying what's most important to you, and B) eliminating everything else.

Really, what's the worst that could happen? Just try it.
