Just spent some time in a very enjoyable fashion.
So why shouldn’t you do this too – here it is…
And again, if you don’t see this video here (for example if you are using Thunderbird to aggregate) just go to the blog and look there.
Obviously I had to look up this guy Chris Bliss and found him to be a very interesting guy ChrisBliss.com.
Particularly interesting his project to put the Bill Of Rights into every state capitol.
Don’t we sometimes (sometimes!) love these unsolicited e-mails we battle in our inbox every day?
This is one of them…
MEN RULES: Now here are the rules from the male side.
These are our rules!Please note… these are all numbered “1” ON PURPOSE!
1. Men are NOT mind readers.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat.
You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down.
We need it up, you need it down.
You don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.1. Sunday sports. It’s like the full moon or the changing of the tides.
Let it be.1. Shopping is NOT a sport.
And no, we are never going to think of it that way.1. Crying is blackmail.
1. Ask for what you want.
Let us be clear on this one:
Subtle hints do not work!
Strong hints do not work!
Obvious hints do not work!
Just say it!1. Yes and No are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
1. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That’s what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
1. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a Problem. See a doctor.
1. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 Days.
1. If you won’t dress like the Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to act like soap opera guys.
1. If you think you’re fat, you probably are. Don’t ask us.
1. If something we said can be interpreted two ways and one of them makes you sad or angry, then we meant the “other one “
1. You can either ask us to do something or tell us how you want it done. Not both. If you already know best how to do it, just do it yourself.
1. Whenever possible, Please say whatever you have to say during commercials.
1. Christopher Columbus did NOT need directions and neither do we.
1. ALL men see in only 16 colors, like Windows default settings. Peach, for example, is a fruit, not A color. Pumpkin is also a fruit. We have no idea what mauve is.
1. If it itches, it will be scratched. We do that.
1. If we ask what is wrong and you say “nothing,” we will act like nothing’s wrong. We know you are lying, but it is just not worth the hassle, besides we know you will bring it up again later.
1. If you ask a question you don’t want an answer to, expect an answer you don’t want to hear.
1. When we have to go somewhere, absolutely anything you wear is fine…really.
1. Don’t ask us what we’re thinking about unless you are prepared to discuss such topics as baseball, the shotgun formation, or golf.
1. You have enough clothes.
1. You have too many shoes.
1. I am in shape. Round IS a shape!
Thank you for reading this. Yes, I know, I have to sleep on the couch tonight; but did you know men really don’t mind that? It’s like camping.
Here’s a great example showing that school kids can be fast with lots of wits:

This is TV as good as it can get!
Why don’t we have such good shows here in the US??
And, by the way, if you want to find out more, look for Hinoi Team with Korikki and obviously the title of the song is “Night Of Fire.” This is one of the clips that I have to go back once in a while and reinforce it back into my consciousness.
Should you come here, want to enjoy this video, and get the message that it’s no longer available, please let me know so that I can find it again and update the post. It has already happened twice that these works of art have disappeared and reappeared under a different name – there are probably some copy-fighters playing.
Update: Here is another video from the same group to enjoy and cringe about…
I suppose this great commercial originally came from the US, but I received it from Germany and just had to translate it back into (its most likely original) English.
Sorry – I could not help it – but I just had to share:
Click on the image for its full beauty.
Ming reports in his post Mohammed, the Mastermind:
Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, confesses to being responsible for just about every terror attack that happened anywhere in the past 10 years.
Just the same day I ran into this pretty image that – kind-of – shows a tiny bit different view:
All right, here is a good hoax. I was fooled by it first because it looks so real, and we more or less want to believe that this is true.
But I had the nagging little voice inside telling me that something – something – is not quite right.
And then it came to me that warm gas would be lighter color – this one is black so it must be cold.
What am I talking about?
See here…
In some RSS readers the video will not show. In this case please go to the web site and watch it there.
I got this little video in the email – thanks Beverly – and just had to share it. It is so incredibly typical that I can only believe the filmmaker must have had some encounter with that species.
This video might not show in your RSS feed on your aggregator (e.g., Thunderbird), so if you don’t see the video above, please go to the blog’s website itself.
