Enjoy this weeks picks. The pick of the litter is Coldplay’s Glass of Water, from the Prospekt’s March EP. Didn’t receive much media attention, but a great album to pick up.
If you haven’t already noticed from some of my previous posts, I love cutting edge electronics and I am continuously looking for new places to buy them for affordable prices. Recently, I was turned on to a new website by a friend who shares the same passion, it is Crutchfield.com. My factory stereo stopped playing CD’s in my car and consequently, I am on the verge of being driven insane by the same annoying, redundant songs on the radio. I swear if I have to hear Lady Gaga singing about Spanish men and telephones or Katy Perry and the California Girls one more time, I am going to jab a trident through my center console. I need a new car stereo! So I took my friend’s advice and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. I bought a stereo at an affordable price that has the capability to play CD’s, MP3 CD’s, and it boasts a USB & Ipod hookup. I got it for about $40 less than Best Buy and it came with the wiring harness and console adapter for free (a $50 cost at Best Buy). The best part was still to come. Shipping and lifetime technical support was absolutely free and they were both exceptional. The people at Crutchfield support are extremely helpful, knowledgable and informative. On a refreshing note, they were very polite as well. The free shipping was phenomenal. I ordered my item on a Tuesday morning and it arrived by Wednesday night. Now, all I have to do is figure out how to install the damn thing, which is a little harder then disarming a nuclear bomb.
So, the next time you need an electronic of any sort, I would highly recommend you check out Crutchfield. They have TV’s, surround sound, car audio equipment, cameras, and much more. I am not promising they will have the cheapest prices but they do have exceptional service at quality prices. Let me know so of your experiences if you decide to follow my advice.
We really appreciate all of those people who regularly check our site in search of fun and entertainment. To thank you, I would like to give you some helpful insider information that can really enhance your living situation. My thought here is that you habitually come to our website and your significant other/roomate does not. Now to punish them for their lagging support of our efforts and to reward your loyalty, I would like to give you some knowledge into a great prank. First, lets start with the necessary items to make this a success:
Great. Now if you are a genius, you probably figured it out by now. If not, I will explain. We all need to make life a little more interesting at times, so…what better way than scaring the living hell out of a friend or person you love by lighting some explosives during their daily (we hope) shower time. The key to pulling this prank off successfully lies in your stealthiness. Basically, become a ninja and sneak into the bathroom when your victim is in the shower. If the door is closed, open it very slowly, making sure no sound is made. Remember, patience is a virtue. Now that you have successfully infiltrated the area, remove a couple of bottle rockets from your arsenal and light the fuse. Wait about 5 seconds. Completely kidding. Throw those mothers in the shower as soon as you light them. THEN…(this step is very important…either hold the curtain or door shut so that they cannot escape. Once this is complete, listen to the sound of fireworks exploding and the high pitch squeal coupled with the frantic behavior of your victim……and Enjoy! Finally, run like the wind to a room which has a lockable door and wait for them to calm down. Oh, this is best done early in the morning because your victim is most likely still half asleep.
Just because I wrote this, doesn’t mean you should do it. This just sounds like something fun to do. I know you can’t really aim, but don’t aim for the eyes. Not cool.
I, Brad, hereby relinquish any liability that may be held against me if this prank is performed incorrectly and consequently results in serious injury or blindness by any visitors to this site. But! If you do try this and it works to perfection. Please videotape it or at least let me know how it works out.
Growing up, everybody dreamed of one day owning a nice car and a lamborghini was the quintessential exotic to have in your dream garage. Personally, as a kid, I had a poster of a 1995 Lamborghini Countach on my wall. I used it as a motivational tool to work hard so that one day I might own one. To some, it is a symbol of wealth or social status and to others, it is a freakishly expensive toy that is an all around driving experience. The exotic car is featured in rap videos, movies (or cinematic adventures in the words of Dane Cook) and TV shows. For years, the brand of Lamborghini has been able to maintain its place atop the world’s most desirable automobiles. Now, they are taking it one step further and have ventured to the water. Behold, the Lamborghini Concept Yacht.
The yacht is an engineering marvel. The interior boasts a lucious cockpit along with an owner’s suite, guest bedroom, and a protected lounge. The true beauty of this luxurious marine animal lies in its exterior. To achieve optimal performance and aerodynamics, the designer constructed the boat out of kevlar and carbon fiber. In case your wondering, yes it replicates the the thrill of driving a Lamborghini Gallardo or Reventon on the highway because it is powered by not 1, but 3 high performance motors. Add that to my bucket list please. I have already sent an inquiry into Lamborghini to let me test drive the yacht in order to write an unbiased and professional review. I will update you on the status as I am notified.
Another funny e-mail from another friend. Thanks again for this one, Ben. If this doesn’t at least make you crack a smile, you are crazy.

Well, I received a Facebook post about this story from a friend. It is about a rapist on the loose in Huntsville, AL. If you have any information at all that can help, please contact the police. Check it out.
On a more serious note, here is the music video. Jon, thanks for the post. It’s a great addition to our site and well done finding this during work hours.
Sorry for the lack of a good title here. Since this a site focused on entertaining you at work, here is an example of a funny e-mail I received from friend out of nowhere one day while I was at work. It made my day. If you don’t get the reference, it’s from a Dave Chappelle standup act. Check out the video below after reading the e-mail and don’t forget to submit your own funny stories/e-mails from work.

All the white kids are hunched over the refrigerator looking at the high-c.
Black kid is in the back saying, “i want that purple stuff baby”
PURPLE STUFF IS GOOD”
