Not too long ago I wrote about the CardFunk website and all the cool and animated cards you can create and customize to send to friends. They’ve just updated their content and now have more Christmas cards to get your CardFunk groove on.
If you’re not familiar with what happens, you upload a picture of yourself and some friends and embed their images on some dancing, animated characters on the card. They usually dance and sing and it’s all around a good time to be had by all.
When you watch these cards, you can’t help but bring a little smile …read more

A few months ago I shared a post about a group of 36 skateboarders in San Francisco that created a pretty cool video. They used Freebords to make a video of what appeared to be a Tetris game as they skated downhill.
Here’s a video showing how they did it.

I’ll bet you’ve not seen girls jump-roping like this before in your life. They’re doing more than just jumping and spinning the rope multiple times on one jump. These girls are fantastic!
Thanks to my friend William Lehman over at Decloned for sharing the video on his blog. I’ve never heard of the Firecrackers before, but not I’m checking out their schedule so I can go see them perform at another event for half-time.

Let’s hope your Monday starts a little bit better than this today. It’s always tough to get your week started, but hopefully this little video will give you some perspective that your day can’t start off this badly.
Hat tip to Eric Clark on twitter for sharing this video.
The Turtleman – Noodling for Snappers

My wife just shared this video with me. I grew up in Kentucky and love my home state. There are some very eccentric country folk living in the Bluegrass state though.
Now noodling, the sport of catching catfish by sticking your hand and arm into a hole and letting them bite it, is one thing. But noodling for snapping turtles is something completely different. I’ve been fishing and seen a snapping turtle break a broom stick like a twig. You can believe these suckers he’s catching would take a chunk out of whatever they wanted that they could reach.
U2 Concert Live on YouTube – Is It Now U2be

Perhaps we should just shorten it to U2be. What do you think? Not sure why I hadn’t heard of this concert happening before now, but you can watch U2 perform live on YouTube tonight from their Rose Bowl concert.
I went and saw the U2 in 3D concert at my local IMAX theater last year (or was it two years ago?) and it was amazing. My first thought of watching a concert in a theater wasn’t too high of an expectation, but it turned out to be a really great experience.
I’m guessing watching a concert live on YouTube might be similar. …read more

I’m not sure what it is about watching other people hurt themselves, but sometimes it can be funny right? Other times you watch something that makes your stomach queasy and you have to turn away.
You’ll find both kinds of videos on the Break.com website. Some will make you bust a gut with laughter while others will make you feel like your guts are coming up with what you just watched.
The Break.com site has more than just videos though, you can also find humorous photos as well as games and other stuff, but I usually spend most of my …read more

I’m not even a big hockey fan and don’t follow the sport, but this looks like a pretty amazing shot to me for sure. He picks up the puck and twirls it between his legs before launching it into the net as far as I can tell.
Oliver Wahlstrom shot the goals as part of a shoot-out goal. For all of you hockey fans out there. Tell me more about this shot. What do you think? Does the kid of serious talent or what?
Baby Roller Skaters Living Young – Evian Commercial

At dinner tonight my wife and son were super excited to tell me about a video they watched today that had my son laughing so hard he was crying. My wife thought he was faking, but he was literally ROFL.
The video my wife originally posted on her Facebook was a remake of the video above that used Michael Jackson’s "Billie Jean" music instead. I like this one though, although there was a clip of a baby doing a little MJ dance move and moon walking.

Here’s an interesting video I just found that shows some skateboarders playing a game of real world Tetris on a city street. They’ve got the Tetris shapes made out of glowing tubes that they’re carrying on their heads and bodies.

As they skate down the hill the pieces appear like they’re falling into place. At the bottom, all the skaters arrange themselves into a complete Tetris puzzle.
Pretty cool and creative!
