When I saw this video, I just about flipped out!

About

The kid has filled up a ton of glass bottles with the correct about of liquid to create the appropriate notes when tapped. He’s spaced the bottles apart and drives an RC Car past them, which taps them as it passes. This creates, what has to be, the most original version of the Super Mario Theme that I’ve ever heard!

Just imagine a TV show like this in North America, and then imagine the lawsuits!!

The one with the horse has to be my favorite!

I guess he’s their interpretation of a homosexual: He runs around in a tight leather outfit surprising unsuspecting people – it’s hilarious! One of his signature sayings is “Yahoo” and in these videos, he goes to the Yahoo! Japan offices and tries to get them to pay him for his catchphrase!

This time, the producers have created a Port-O-Potty with a countdown timer. When the timer reaches zero, the floor elevates until the occupent is now sharing their goods with whoever passes by!!  :lol:  Can you image the lawsuits if they tried this in the States?!

He mentioned one of the Japanese videos that I had posted earlier and it rekindled my love for these nutty videos!

In this one, the show’s producers have set up a “spa” at the top of a ski resort – but this is no ordinary spa!

In this one, they have placed some masking tape on their cat and hilarity ensues! We tried this with Sampson, our cat, but we put five strips on at once!!

I recommend it!

Um, What?

FeedBurner has this option that can integrate your Flickr feed into your site’s RSS feed. It is a pretty cool idea except I notice that it reposts pictures. I get five or so pictures from a month ago post again this month. This keeps happening, so I have decided to remove this feature and go another route. Also, I realize that most of my Flickr photos are work-related and most of my subscribers don’t care!

If you do care, then you’ll notice that I have added my Flickr Feed to the “Feeds On” section right above the header image of the site!

They are so silly and goofy – but they are hilarious! I wish we had them in the States.

In this one, the contestants are in a library where you must be quiet. It’s one of those situations where you have to be quiet and that only makes you laugh harder! The contestants must pick a card and the “odd-man-out” gets stuck with the prank.
