Put a Banana In Your Ear

Those of you who watch stupid internet movies a lot are probably familiar with Charlie the Unicorn. And how completely insane and stupid it is.

I love the damn thing. I get in a mood and I'll start quoting it. "We're going on an adventure, charlie! An Adventuuuuure. . ."

Well, they came out with a new one. And I've had the Banana song stuck in my head for a few days now.



So much that I actually did it. You know, it works. You have to be in a completely goofy mood to put a banana in your ear, you can't help but be happy, in a completly stupid sort of way.

Gotta Have the Frosted Flakes!

A long time ago, way back in the 1970's, my dad and his friend Bob got together and filmed this little video for a College Thesis Project.

I've been ripping VHS tapes to the computer and thought I would YouTube it. Enjoy :)

Yardsale Sortage

So we're having a yard sale tomorrow, and while we were sorting out stuff, my sister handed these out.

Apparently her husband used up all the blonde ones, so these look a little, well, nasty.



I won't even say what my sister called these. It was just gross. But we had a good laugh.

One of my favorite comic strips of all time is Calvin and Hobbes.

I laughed so hard when I saw this on YouTube.

Terrorist Ferrets Plotting Major Attacks

In a lengthy press conference yesterday President Bush vowed to take decisive action against terrorist ferrets who are allegedly plotting major attacks against the nation's living room carpet. "We will not rest," the President declared emphatically, "until these evil-doers are brought to justice. These little rascals could be hiding anywhere -- under the sofa, in the hamper, even in our kitchen cabinets, if Condi left them open. But know this: they are on the run."

Abby is doing her own part with being at war with my Wacom Tablet Stylus. Blaine has an agenda against any soap bars lying around.

Our carpet has long been a casualty of this threat.

Hypocrits Among Us


You know, say what you want about the war in Iraq and this presidential administration or whatever your views may be and I'll respect them, even if they're different from mine.

But come on people, you do realize that when you put a 'oil bad' sticker on an SUV, you look like a flippen retard, right?

I shot this at a stoplight as I was following behind this guy and went 'huh?' I had my camera ready and tried to snap the picture, but it still blurred a bit. If you can't tell what it says, it says "Grand Oil Party" with the republican elephant logo looking a bit like a gas pump.

Come on, if you're going to put a sticker on your car that says something like that, make it a fuel efficient vehicle and not a gas guzzler. Gees.

Really, what is this world coming to?

What I find ironic is the insertion of a Swastika on the Isreali flag. Is this an oxymoron or something??? Didn't Nazis like try to kill all the jews? Or are this anti war ralliers who claim that we're repeating history forgetting what Nazism was all about?

I don't know if I'll Ever hear the end of This.

You know that magazine ad for the Guardian(KFOR MNB-E Publication) I told you about? The one I posed for?

Well, I knew the repurcussions of posing in it, and sure enough, I've been getting a lot of comments.

Fortunately, I can just laugh with them. As I can blame nobody but myself. Er, and maybe SPC H for talking me into posing for her.



We must have taken a few dozen pictures of him assaulting me and me assaulting him. Of course, it had to be tame enough to publish in a government publication. What's Nate's unit going to probably say?

"And you can't get into that girl's pants?"

I think the whole thing is a riot myself :)

Dude, what I wouldn't give to have this kind of flexibility!



But I don't think I would like to fall like that though. She seems a little to limber at times.

Another slightly disturbing video, but funny, if you have sense of humor. Especially a conservative sense of humor. So wrong in so many ways.

I laughed so hard. *dude, that video is old, how did I miss it?

T-Shirts

We went to KFOR Main a few days ago, and while I was there, I found a T-shirt at the souvenir shop.

It was only four Euro, and it made me smile.



So I bought it.

My AK's tougher then your sister's M4!

I got an email a couple of days ago, challenging my badassedness. Now don't get me wrong, he's are a supporter of the blog and everything, but he just wanted to challenge me, saying that his sister is tougher then I am.

And here is his reasoning, quoted directly out of the email.

1. She goes in to battle dressed stylishly, rather than in drab
camoflage patterns.

2. She has bigger hair than you do.

3. Her weapon appears to be loaded, whereas yours always seem to be empty.

4. Her minions are ex-SAS blokes and Afghanis, rather than geeks.

5. Er... that's all.


Then there was a picture.



Here is my refute. Point One.

Well, anybody can say that their sense of style is better then mine. I have no sense of style, my sense of style tends to fall under the seattle term 'grunge', sort of. I like baggy pants and t-shirts. I'm all for comfort, sweetheart. But if you really want to see style, did your sister ever play laserquest in a prom dress?


I didn't think so.

Point Two

No comment. Besides, right now I'm missing most of it. But eventually it will grow back!

But i had pretty big hair at my prom!

Point Three

When you're in a military environment carrying 210 rounds between all seven of your magazines, if you are caught with a magazine locked and loaded and you aren't on a range or outside the wire, your head would get chewed off quicker then you can say Article 15. So usually, when I'm with my little M16, I don't have it locked and loaded. But that doesn't mean I don't get pictures from time to time.

Besides, Chuck, my AK, clearly has a magazine larger then an M4's. As is demonstrated to the right. YEAH, look at that bad boy! And that sucker NEVER jams!

Anyway, not all weapons have a magazine. Like this rifle.


Point Four

You need to take that up with my Minions. Some of which are in the army. Hehe. Including non-geeks in my unit who have since seen my website and said "I want to be a minion!"

No, seriously, somebody said this to me. And he's pretty hoorah.

Point Five

WEAK! WEAK ALL THE WAY!

I win!

The Internet, Bare Naked Ladies, and the Cheesiest Video of All Time

So anyway, the whole Roommate Spiel will hopefully eventually settle down, but I'm not counting on it.

But the Good News! I finally have internet in my room! Wireless, right to my Laptop! The wonders of technology will never cease to amaze me!

The bad news? It's. . .insanely. . .sloooooooowwwww. . .

Which brings me to my next point. The cheesiest video of all time.

It was made about a week ago, on my computer.

I guess I better start at the beginning.

I was having a particularly ho-hum day (meaning not great) when PFC W comes and says hi. See, he's got this video camera he just bought and I open the door to him video taping me. So what continues is this rather candid discussion, where I'm being kind of melancholy (my puddy I just got froze in the mail and it made me sad). Then he went and started video taping my roommate spawned from hell and she chewed him out. So we ended up taping over that part too. But not before he could get a frozen picture of the chair in her part of the room (which makes a candid appearance in the CVOAT, several times). See, most of this video is of W playing with his camera trying to figure it out, switching to the light, night vision and whatever.

I thought it was mildly humorous after watching it and asked him if I could have the tape so I could transfer it onto my computer. He went ahead and gave me the tape.

Well, then I had to figure out how to transfer it onto my computer. I started playing with various bits of software, because that's how I learn best. Heck, that's how I learn everything with a computer, by playing with it until I figure it out.

I ran into a piece of software that happened to capture video and I'm like Cool! SO I used it.

It made the cheesiest video of all time. If you are watching this thing you're thinking that this should be a wedding video or something. I hadn't laughed so hard since I been here. All I could think is "what the heck is this?"

I thought I would share, but couldn't get it online through the government computers (besides, the government kind of looks down on that, even in the MWR (Morale Welfare and Recreation)

So I had to wait until I could get a connection on my computer. 2 hours later, and listening to the Bare Naked Ladies concert that I attended last summer (good times, these people are what actually got me hooked on RedvsBlue, which I have recently pegged out as full blown addicted, IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT, BNL!), it is now online.


How could this. . .



. .turn into this?

I mean, seriously? You would think me and PFC W were an item or something? (no, we're just friends, he was cheering me up, and he unintentionally succeeded)
