Camels, Anyone?


The title may lead you to believe that I am offering you a cigarette. That is not the case at all, and even if it were I would phrase it in terms of whether or not you wanted a fag.

Since I am clearly talking about the animal with one or two humps, let's get right down to business. The business of dromedaries and bactrians, camels that is!

How many humps would you like? One hump or two?

If you don't know how to answer, perhaps you should read these articles.

Funny Pictures & Photos


Click here for Lots of funny photos and funny pictures. These photos are to make you laugh. Hopefully you will find humor in them!



Why do some people refer to these images as photos while other call them pictures. I suppose that a photo implies that it is a photograph that is authentic and represents reality as shot through the lens of a camera. While on the other hand a funny picture could include any image from a painting, to a photo graph, to photos that have been digitally manipulated for the purpose of making people laugh. All of these are valid reasons and that is perhaps why more people search for funny pictures than for funny photos.

While a more logical explanation than other alternatives, I do not believe it to be the most accurate. The most accurate reason for this preference is probably due to American tendency to use the words photo and picture interchangeably. This tendency fails to note the slight distinction between photos and pictures. It is a habit that is kinda funny if you think about it.

But in the end, whether you search for funny photos of funny pictures what really matters is that you find images that make you laugh.

Happy Emancipation Day! Tax Deadline Extended!

OK, so everyone knows that tax day is April 15th. But there are exceptions to the rule. The first exception is that if the tax deadline falls on a Saturday or Sunday, then the next business day becomes the tax deadline for that year. The second exception is that if the tax deadline (originally or after a move due to the clause above) falls on a national Holiday then they move it to the next day after that. This year we benefit from a loophole that states that if there is an official Holiday in Washington, DC it has the effect of a national holiday even if it is not celebrated anywhere else. Thanks for passing the resolution for Emancipation Day DC dudes!

Read more about the April 17 tax deadline

The whole thing above is a moot point for me since I filed my taxes 6 weeks ago. But if you are still working on taxes and are looking for more deductions, check this information out Items Goodwill Industries Does Not Accept

The Amazing World of Line Rider

If you have never heard of Line Rider, then it is time that you did a google search for this term. You will find a couple sites that offer a great animation product that allows you to draw the motorcycle track for your very own animated motor bike rider. The whole thing gets its name from the fact that the track you draw consists of either black lines or red lines. Red lines make the line rider accelerate and black lines make allow the rider to coast.



It sounds simple enough, but within that simple framework their is room for a huge amount of variation and creativity. Give it a try and unleash your creativity. Or you can enjoy this by going to YouTube.com and doing a search for Line Rider. You will find some cool videos with examples of other peoples animations. Here is one sample video Line Rider Blues

Better Than Tetris

I know what you are thinking, what could be better than Tetris? Well, there are a couple things that could be better than Tetris. For starters, how about Free Tetris? That 's right, there is a website where you can play Tetris for free. It is called (get this) www.FreeTetris.org There are no ads, and the site is free to play. After you have played a bunch of times, there is a one-time request for your e-mail address. They promise not to spam you, and so far I believe it.

I also just found another game that is even better than Tetris, and better even than Free Tetris. The games is called Porolith, and it is like Tetris, except it is even better.

It is similar to Tetris in that you are trying to strategical stack up random block shapes in such a way as to make them disapper before you screen fills up. It does have a few differences. For one, you cannot rotate the blocks at all. You have to drop them as they appear. Also, instead of matching complete horizontal lines to make thos blocks disappear like in Tetris, Porolith has you match colors to make the blocks disappear. It is very basic to learn the function of the game, but it is very difficult to master this game.


Click to play Porolith This game is published by a Japanese website called http://www.gamedesign.jp/

Homeless James Bond

Imagine that instead of a world of glamour and luxury, James Bond inhabits a world of distitution and grime. That is the premise of Homeless James Bond, where Bond is still crafty, still fights the evil criminal mastermind, and still gets the girl, but everyone is homeless.

Acceptable.TV has hit a home run with these videos. Hopefully they can figure out a way to keep this series fresh and funny!

I Hate You T-Shirt

From the sound of the title you might think that I am telling my t-shirt that I hate it. That is not a correct assessment however. In actuality, I love my t-shirt. The reality is that I am using my t-shirt to tell individuals who cross my path (while I am wearing it.) The other possibility is that I am giving it as a gift to someone who I do not have good feelings about.
