How to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew. I did not know this trick. Start at :40.

I am hesitant to ever try it without good health insurance (knowing my luck), but, wow, I could have used this at so many roof parties where the one cheap pocket corkscrew shattered before half the wine was opened…

Ok THAT was a cool trick.

I hope to never be in this position, but just in case …

This trick would get you laid.

It’s not even Halloween yet and the best costume award already goes to Matt Nicole.

Best. Costume. Ever.

Most mammals can sprint faster than humans — having four legs gives them the advantage. But when it comes to long distances, humans can outrun almost any animal. Because we cool by sweating rather than panting, we can stay cool at speeds and distances that would overheat other animals. On a hot day, the two scientists wrote, a human could even outrun a horse in a 26.2-mile marathon.

Sitting up front, eating our smuggled food.  Whenever I go to see a movie with Joel and we’re late, I never worry.  It’s rare to find the front row full and that’s where we always sit.
I have to be careful which movies I watch up front, though.  I watched The Bourne Ultimatum once and got sick to my stomach.  I mean, it probably didn’t help that I had a couple shots of tequila before watching, but … still …
*Edited to add:  **SPOILER ALERT** If you don’t read the news or whatever*
Oh yeah, Race Across the Sky was a good movie.  A little cheesy, hokey, but I definitely recommend it.  Seeing Lance ride like “a man possessed” (as Joel put it) and put a serious hurtin’ on the rest of the competition, and to top it all off - win the race on a FLAT TIRE, was awesome.
Gonna get me a mountain bike and put my name in the Leadville 100 lottery … someday …

Great movie…thinking about putting my name in for the lottery. I’m going to need A LOT of base miles this winter.

There is maybe 1 actual news story on this page. Yes, this is CNN.com, and it’s ridiculous. A boy in a balloon is not news, a possible sad event, but not front page news. Garth Brooks coming back is NOT news, nor is Rihanna’s “cryptic tweet”, or a KISS member’s breast cancer.
However, New York State mandating H1N1 injections for health care workers and infringing on YOUR privacy and freedoms IS FUCKING NEWS. This whole page should be filled with stories like this.
Don’t be distracted.
