Real Sounds from the Hood

It was one of, if not the nicest days this year today and it was interesting to me to see how people would enjoy it. Myself, I decided to get a coat of stain of the old cedar fence to bring out all of its beauty. Others, like my neighbor across the street, also enjoyed the out of doors. Simple exercises like screaming high pitched profanities for all to hear was more her flavor for the day. Sure, light winds rustling through the tree's leaves and birds chirping as they fly overhead is all good, but hearing the echo, "Eat a dick" bounce off house to house, over and over..... is great!

One Crazy Adventure

VIDEO #364

Song - "You're So Cool" by Hans Zimmer (Thanks Markley for the music tip!)

One last day trek to share with you fine people before this old man retires. This adventure brings us to an island on the Columbia River near my house and, for some time now, I've had thoughts of exploring. I woke up today and thought today was the day. A moderate paddle across followed by a pleasant stroll through a dryish marshland... then the fun comes. Muddy dead ends, needle sharp blackberry forests, rain and unseen, but imagined, oversized Beasts lurking in the brush... just a couple of the obstacles I can remember. But in life we're faced with obstacles, and if we do not face these obstacles and overcome them, we will never see what's waiting on the other side, whether it's good or bad. In this case, the thorns cleared, the rain turned to partially blue skies, Beasts turned into cute little deer and muddy dead ends became sandy beaches. So, with that I give you the second to last video from a year of obstacles overcome to enjoy the end of this fine day with you, whoever you might be. Thank you for watching!

Spring is Here

Song - "The Final Countdown" by Europe

It is official, Spring is here! I was pretty excited so I took to the outdoors to see what's "up." Not too different from days past... gray skies, soggy grass, cold breeze, etc. Keep the faith, warmer days are sure to come.

Song - "Happiness" by Jonsi and Alex

From the other day, I had a handful of clips I liked and wanted to put something together, here's what came from it. Good old mother nature showing us what she's made of. She's a beauty, but sure can be a beast sometimes.

Earthquake Memorial Video

VIDEO #347

Song - "Numb (instrumental)" by Linkin Park

Maybe this video is a little cheesy but I thought why not try and show a little empathy towards the recent earthquake victims over in Japan. Quite a tragedy, hopefully all the support will help in a fast recovery. From the shores of Oregon, my heart goes out to you.

Pocket Dog Commercial

Pocket Dog Informercial Jingles

I was at the grocery store scanning random products and came across frozen corn dogs. Instantly, I needed them. I thought, there's a commercial here somewhere, no problem. So here you have it... Pocket Dogs. If you think about it, not that you would do this, you could do exactly what this commercial is advertising... they're fully cooked!

Yesterday was so fun going out in the freezing cold, showering in the rain, that I thought maybe I'd find a way to do that again today. Not that Portland will have a drought anytime soon, when the day comes, here is the stock video that all the news stations will buy. Brrrrrrrrrrr..... hot shower!

The Weather Man

VIDEO #334

Sounds from the last day of Feb 2011

The snow has left and the rain has come. By the looks of things, it's going to be around for a little while. So as your weather man, I would recommend an umbrella, a high dose of vitamin D and a bar of Irish Springs.

Marsh's Free Museum

Sounds of the Weird

In the last video from Long Beach, we stopped on over to Marsh's Free Museum to visit Jake the Alligator Man, the two headed calf and all the other strange oddities the museum has in store. Oh, and did I mention it's free? It's hard not to throw a nickel or dime in the antique novelty machines. A must see if in the town, you can't afford not to check it out!

The Car Accident

Sounds that happen when you get get by a car

You know, it was a little strange putting this one together. I caught myself laughing hysterical, over and over, when I saw myself getting hit by the car and adding the sound effects. This is very unhealthy. I plan to seek professional help.

After my recent haircut, I thought I'd show off my beauty and new found confidence. Nothing like silky, smooth flowing hair for the winter. Oh, and if you could only smell it! So fancy it might just make you want to go in for another sniff.

This reminds me of something out of Sesame Street except it doesn't make sense with the song and would most likely leave the child watching, in tears. Sorry kiddies.

Us men love our beards and to prove it, take the time to check out these links:

Yes, it is true, simple things like hair growing from the face excites the man beyond the wildest of dreams.

The Man Area

Song - "Giving Up The Gun" by Vampire Weekend

The Man Area really took a hit after the new fence and the great wind storm of 2010 . Nothing a pair of man hands couldn't fix and what better time to do it than during a sundown rainfall? Yes, winter hours are in effect and remember, byob and ax.

The Legend of Rainbow Toro

VIDEO #234
You might remember the video I sent to Groupon.com for their monthly contest, heard the great news it was announced the winner and may even have seen the video of a pinata getting delivered to my house. To wrap up the story, I'll show you, not just what was inside the pinata, but what legend the pinata carries. I would recommend the experience in HD, volume high, late at night, alone... lights off, doors unlocked.

Thanks again to Groupon.com, you are all fantastic people. To those who want to check out their site, CLICK HERE.

The Feel Awesome Pill

VIDEO #231
Random Sick to Healthy Music
Lately, I've been a big fan of taking daily vitamins such as Vitamin D, C, E and the occasional St. John's Wort for fun. I thought, if I was to be in the vitamin business and maybe beyond that but in the pharmaceutical world, I would create the "Awesome Pill." Sure, it would have all the essentials one might need for stable health. The bonus would be the wow effect... the dazzle factor... the "I feel like I can jump off a building and live" feeling....... well, that's why I'm here doing this and not making vitamins.
