ONCE IN A LIFETIME

Two days ago I tried my hand at converting pictures to iPod advertisements. I took my homecoming picture, and this is what I came up with. Doesn't it make you want an iPod?

POCARI SWEAT

Here's a very interesting drink called Pocari sweat. The company slogan for this product is: "A drink with properties similar to your body's own fluids". Does that sound disgusting or what? When we bought this last week, the owner of the place described it as being like a Japanese gaterade. Considering all insanely weird movies that come out of Japan (Grudge, Ring), that wasn't a very good description. We bought the drink anyway. Turns out it's not so bad. It's not cheap though, but if somehow I you could get my your hands on this stuff bulk, then drinking Pocari Sweat in public would definitely be an increase on my your popularity meter.

REAL MAN

Here's a dude I know that went off to Auburn University. Soon after arriving, he changed from a normal happy guy, to a guy that goes out, headbutts wild animals to death, and rips open their undersides with his bare hands. After sending me these pictures of him relaxing in his free time, I decided that a University in the deep south would be perfect for me. The amazing thing is, the deer you see in the picture is perfectly alive and healthy. My friend (we'll call him shakeef) majors in microscopic surgery, so in his hunting, he rips open animals just right so that nothing vital is affected and he can prove his genius along with his manliness. I stand in amazement.

NUCLEAR ATTACK WARNING

For some reason today I stumbled across the government website for the Department of Homeland Security. They have great tips on how you and your family should prepare for a terrorist attack, and what you should do in the case of an attack. This picture is taken from one of their instructional guides. I've never seen anything more informational in my life. In case of a nuclear attack, think about whether you can get out of the area... They must think everyone has the intelligence of a two year old. Is anyone going to run towards the giant mushroom cloud in the case of an emergency? The informational diagram they provide is great also. Don't run AT the nuclear explosion or into either of the dead ends, simply run away down the long and happy street that DOESN'T have the nuclear explosion!
