5th Street McDonald’s Hiring Friendly People

Just saw this video from a McDonald's in St. Charles, MO. The restaurant needed more time to complete this man's order, so they asked him to pull out of the drive-thru. He refused and so it appears that they refused to serve him his food. Ten minutes later he goes into the store to speak … Continue reading 5th Street McDonald’s Hiring Friendly People

Holograms you can touch

In the third grade, my class converted a bathroom into a hologram lab. We spray painted a Donald Duck figurine silver and shot a laser at him and through the magic of science, I now have a piece of glass in a jewelry box under my bed that has a 3D Donald Duck image on … Continue reading Holograms you can touch

Viral Video Wednesday

In addition to my last post about the web cam music video, I just found another great example of viral video marketing. This time, it's Benson mattress company's attempt to set the world record for mattress dominos. Mattress dominos? Yeah. See it for yourself: How ridiculous and fun. I like when the people scream and … Continue reading Viral Video Wednesday

Web Cam Music Video

The story? A Japanese band called Sour created this synronized web cam video. The result? Eye candy! Probably my favorite music video since the Ok Go treadmills in "Here We Go Again" 🙂 I love when bands come up with cool ways to showcase their music... and it has a viral component. I saw it … Continue reading Web Cam Music Video

Band geekiness

I have a confession to make. I am a band geek. In elementary school it started out easy enough - class plays and concert choir. Then I taught myself to play a little piano. In sixth grade, I signed up for band class. I thought I'd play the clarinet. The procrastinator gene in my family … Continue reading Band geekiness

This post is bananas

B-A-N-A-N-A-S No, seriously. It is. This video changed my life. Much like the guy demonstrating this technique, I have been wasting precious seconds of my life, struggling to free yummy banana fruit from its devilish peel through the stem. Now, I can peel bananas with ease... and without frustration. Just follow along with this brief … Continue reading This post is bananas

Out of Africa

I am most definitely not in Africa. But from the projects I've been working on, I might as well be. Nurses for Africa At work, we're helping out with a site for 16 nurses from St. Louis that are in Zambia, providing medical care and education and HIV/AIDS prevention. Zambia is in southern Africa. Each … Continue reading Out of Africa

Nakey Time for Air New Zealand

Okay, so I have to confess this ad for Air New Zealand made me giggle. They also did an in-flight safety video. While it's informative, it's also super hilarious. I can only imagine the looks on the passengers faces when they turn it on! To see more about the campaign, or to see the bloopers … Continue reading Nakey Time for Air New Zealand
