“The Splendiferous Barfing Cup” Self Portrait or Pure Boredom? [VIDEO]
Ah, the magic of Youtube. Just click around for a bit and you are bound to find something completely random.
It is usually cats or kittens, I'll agree, but sometimes the internet can make stars out of the most unsuspecting objects.
Just like any good recipe it only takes one special ingredient. In the case of Youtube gold that special ingredient is: boredom.
The NFL Lockout is Over
Finally, after 135 days the NFL owners and players have come to an agreement and so ends the NFL Lockout.
It was so long ago, most probably don't even remember what the lockout was for in the first place, but now we don't have to worry about those nightmares we experience over the past 135 days. You know the ones...a life without football.

I know I tried to forget it too, but if you were lucky enough to escape it here is a quick synopsis: Earth is being trashed, Earth is pissed and she gives rings to 5 kids so they can summon some blue guy with a green mullet to save their ass. Yeah, thanks Ted Turner.
Even as a kid, I thought this show as lame. Thanks to the unc
Fire at Landfill Off I-220 Today
On my way home from work saw some major smoke coming off I-220 right around Cross Lake.
I thought it was probably a grass fire from a cigarette that had been thrown out of a car window, but as I got closer I could tell it was a lot bigger than that.
Turns out it was a huge fire at the landfill right off Russell Road.
Bigfoot Has Nothing on Nipplefoot
It took scientists years to find a nipple on a 22 year old female that a male didn't want to see. That was of course before there was Nipplefoot.
I only suggest the strong of constitution continue in reading this post, but if your are asking for it be my guest.
