Okay well maybe not but this shit is freaky. Apparently due to a major amount of dust that has been kicked up into the air the crimson skies where born. In Sydney Australia this is what you would see looking out your window. Luckily it went away as the sun rose higher in the sky throughout the day. Crazy how it looked like the end of days.

Unidentified creature found in Panama. Alien?

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Four teenagers in Panama have encountered a creature that was photographed dead on a rock. Apparently the said creature went towards them and they threw rocks at it until it died. Darren Naish of ScienceBlogs.com says the creature is “very obviously” a sloth. Its fun to think it could be an alien though, don’t you think?

Oscar Mayer mobile on the loose

Wienermobile Wreck

Oh what a story. Oscar Mayer mobile crashing into someone’s poor house in Wisconsin. Apparently the driver of the runaway plastic wiener said they tried to maneuver out of the driveway and turn around when they rammed into the house. I guess it’s smart to step full on the gas petal when driving a giant wiener. The driver thought they had it in reverse when…BOOM. Oops.

A Oscar Mayer representative said they would make sure their insurance would cover all costs. Well duh!?

Pixar Grants Dying Girl Her Final Wish

Saturday, June 20th, 2009

This story will make you tear up. I couldn’t help but get a ball in my throat while reading it myself. 

Here’s the story: (via PerezHilton.com)

10-year-old Colby Curtin was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer in December 2005, and ever since she saw a preview for Up, she’d been excited for the poignant film about a man who goes on an adventure after the loss of his wife by tying balloons to his house and flying away.

After the family had made a request that was never fulfilled for a wheelchair to take Colby to the theaters, a family friend began frantically calling Pixar as Colby’s health dramatically worsened.

Finally the friend got through the automated messaging system by guessing a name. Pixar immediately sent out an employee to the girl’s home in Huntington Beach armed with a DVD of the film and a gift basket of toys. The family sat around to a private screening.

Colby had difficulty keeping her eyes open through the film because of the pain she was in, so her mother narrated it to her.

Colby died 7 hours later and we hope her final moments were that much more comfortable for having her final wish granted!

This is hilarious. Fairfax High school has chosen their prom queen this year. His name is Sergio Garcia! He was challenged by many that he wouldn’t ever win, but the school ended up voting in his favor. The funny thing is I actually know someone that is friends with him. When I read the article online I recognized his face. Congrats dude!
