Sure we’ve all in that moment of unclarity felt like we could handle the problem ourselves using our MacGyver like skills but there are certain instances where it’s just better to lay down the money and call in the professional. Here are some examples of when things should not be “home-made”.
Earlier today in San Diego, a 61-year old driver, James Sikes’ Toyota Prius took over control from him. While traveling down the CA 8 East freeway. Sikes’ had accelerated to pass another vehicle when his pedal stuck bringing the car to speeds of nearly 90 MPH. This continued for roughly 30 miles before CHP was able to box the Prius in and slowly bring it to a stop.
Bacon…rockets…Popeye t-shirt…fire…windows…bacon music…smoke detectors…there’s really not much more that needs to be said here. The wonderful boys over atRather Goodhave put together an experiment to see if pigs really can fly.
Conan O’Brien has over half a million followers on Twitter. How many people is he following? One, Sarah Killen (@LovelyButton). On March 5th, @ConanOBrien posted this “I’ve decided to follow someone at random. She likes peanut butter and gummy dinosaurs. Sarah Killen, your life is about to change.”
After two days of her Twitter fame she has nearly 15,000 followers. She has also received a MacBook, a camera, nearly $1,000 for the Susan G. Komen Michigan 3-Day for the Cure Walk, and offers to purchase her wedding ring for her. Her MySpace page has the update “I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to afford a wedding gown. Now I am having a gorgeous one as a wedding gift.”
She also seems a small bit put off by her instant webrity status saying that she hates how careful she has to be with correct spelling and grammar and just generally with what she says now. Below she discusses she new “webfame” and how she has responded to it.
Her fiancee, John Slowik Jr, is also on Twitter (@badghandi89) and has a MySpace if you wish to chat him up. She apparently also has a Tweeting squirrel (@KillensSquirrel) that I’m hoping to see a lot more from. Here is a picture of the happy couple together.
Conan’s most recent tweet? “Sarah likes Twizzlers and craves cantaloupe. I like Raisinets, but melon feels creepy in my mouth. Twitter pals 4 eva! :)” Congratulations on your Twitter fame Sarah…we hope it treats you well.
No lie…do a search over at the MPAA website for 3 Ninjas Knuckle Up and you will see the actual reason it received a PG-13 rating, that’s right “Non-Stop Ninja Action.” Those boys, Rocky, Colt and Tum Tum are some bad ass mofos…I think they may even be the next iteration of the Chuck Norris meme.
