Today's Mighty Oak


Quick update for everyone before once again I dive back into my novel.

First up, Jesse Tyler Ferguson shows us how to tie a bowtie (this is normal the first time, after it’s much easier, if you need help, just ask me):

The male ego is very fragile.  Perfect for marketers to take advantage of.

Fun discussion of code words.  So many at summer camp, we used Santa Claws and Mr. Diamond for bears and snakes.

And of course, Ermylerd, Gersberms:



So many points to a great volunteer who had today’s title on his facebook earlier this week.

Let’s see what we have, first up:

Lifehacker has a cool post up about using paper bags as a floor covering.  I also like the idea in the comments about adding old maps mixed it.

They also cover how to make an emergency bracelet that conceals fishing equipment.  A nice hack on something very trendy right now.

Thank you, Bill Nye:

Kind of like the meme of placing photos in their real world space, this does the same with album covers, pretty cool.

This is so very, very true:

Wow, image heavy post today, but here’s one more for you:

That’s it for now, have a great one!



Another update for everyone, here we go.

First up, take a look at the 2011 year in movies:

If you are inclined, take a look at the top 50 memes of 2011.

Ever wanted to ride a swing while riding a subway?  Of course you have, check out the video here.

I’m unable to embed it, but we finally have a trailer for Joss Whedon’s Cabin in the Woods (lots of Dollhouse alums).  Watch it here.

Funny or Die puts together D&D Character sheets for the Presidential Candidates.  Awesome, in such a nerdy way.

I missed it before, but…Oh little town of Baconham:

 

The band Hanson is going to be brewing a beer called Mmmmhop.  Awesome, but I don’t like IPAs, so I’ll be passing.

Pizza hut wins.  Total win.

Staples is going to be selling Dunder Mifflin paper, pretty awesome.

This is scary, take a look inside Amazon distribution centers and warehouses.

Graphic Novel giants take on each other in a fight about Occupy.

The top images of 2011. And 11 anachronistic photos from movie sets.

And finally, something that I thought i heard something about it before, but now it’s coming to market: condoms with a Viagara type gel inside.  No reason to not be safe!
 



Another fun update for you, let’s take a look at what I’ve found online for you.

First up, need an explosion?  Just use this link and click the button.  Thank you Old Spice.

And again, if you haven’t seen it, go see The Muppets:

Facebook has announced a new anti-suicide help tool.  Pretty awesome!  Although there are so many status updates that are just lyrics, this will be tough to work out:

 

Awesome article: Everyone should work a service job.  God how much did I hate folding the basic tee table at Bauer?

George Takai gets us all behind a common cause:

No words can enhance this amazing sign:

 

Check out this revisioning of the Dark Knight Rises trailer:

Check out the best wedding and engagement photos from 2011 here.

Pantone released their color of the year.  Eh, not impressed.

This looks amazing, I had no idea it was being made:

I love Google’s sense of humor, check out the instructions to walk to Mordor.

Occupy Wall Streets becomes Lego Sets!  Not really, but cool idea from Slate.

A fun Star Wars Video:

That’s it for now, back with more soon!
