Debate Mapper

I just found this awesome website that maps debates. Search for a topic and it will map all the arguments in color coded threads. Anyway, I haven’t had time to play with it but the idea is fantastic.

One of the joys of living in South Florida is the daily encounters with interesting brain exercises. This sign was in the cafeteria of my sons school.

Do a search for sexism in advertising and you’ll find tons of references to these vintage ads. Sorry…I guess I was expecting nudity.

Donating Blood

October 18th, 2007

A friend sent me this hilarious video of a guy donating blood. I have translated what he says…I don’t know if the translation will be funny at all but here it goes:

[youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7EctKuCFS8]

Reporter: Is this your first time donating blood?
Blood-giver: Correct.
Reporter: Why are you doing this?
Blood-giver: The company told us to come…you know..so (awkward grin)
Reporter: (inaudible)
Blood-giver:It’s that there’s a wife…no, mother-in-law of a colleague of ours who worked with us in the hospital and needs blood…and so they asked us to do this charity so we’re taking advantage of the holiday..you know…no lines..and that’s it…
Reporter: Was it worthwhile?
Blood-giver:Yeah, for sure…and I recommend it…if you haven’t given blood, come down and donate…it doesn’t hurt at all…
(at this point the nurse sticks the needle)
Just a second (grimaces in pain) … fucking big needle…

Buckler

Buckler is brewed by Heineken. It is a nice beer with a nice light color and a bit of the light bitterness that you might find in an actual Heineken. Read the rest of this entry »
