How to make a Coke Bomb

Mashups

A musical genre of songs that consist entirely of parts of other songs.

I was surfing the web and found some sites that made mashup songs. I never heard of them so I gave a listen. Facinatingly bizarre! Theres a site called Pheugoo that features a bunch of mashup songs you can listen to. Check this one out that mixes the theme from Smokey and the Bandit with Usher, called Smokey and the Yeah. I kinda like it!

This is cool....


Check out this collection of very strange statues from around the world!

From The Archives


Back in the early to mid 80's, I was in a band called "The Spastic Five". There were anywhere from 4 to 7 people in the band, depending on who showed up. We didn't play out too often, and we weren't very good, but it was fun most of the time. Even when Indians were fighting on stage and knocking my drums over! I'll try and get a song clip up soon.

UPDATE: Unfortunately, blogger dosen't allow music uploads. I'll try and put a song up on one of my other sites and direct link it.

Extremes



Picture taken out the back window in August, and again today. The snow pile is about 7 feet deep.

Staying Warm


The snow has finally ended but it's still bitter cold out. Nightime temperatures fall below zero. The highest it's been outside today was 6. But, it's nice and toasty inside the house, courtesy of the woodstove!


It's made of 1/2 inch thick steel, so once it gets hot, it stays hot! No matter what the temperature is outside, we can keep it above 70 in the house all winter long. The bricks heat up like a hot road in summer, and they're nice to stand on barefoot, especially after taking a shower. Don't touch your bare leg on the stove! That'll leave a mark! (I have a few). It's our only source of heat for the house and we burn about 12 face cord the entire winter. Buy it and stack it in summer, living by the motto "during good weather, prepare for the bad." Notice that 5 foot deep pile of snow out the window?

SNOW



Lake effect snow. This band has been over our area for 2 days now, with temperatures hovering between 0 and 5. It took about 4 hours of shoveling and snowblowing this morning to get the driveway and walk to the house cleaned up. Superbowl just started and it's still snowing hard, better than an inch an hour. Schools are already closed for tomorrow. Looks like I'll be doing the same thing in the morning.

What would you do?



This dude is hilarious. The Scottish accent kills. His website is called Limmy. There's some funny videos and playthings there.
