NES

Best Web Junk (August 20)

I have been getting this same 3-part red-ring pretty much every other time I turn on the X-box lately so I enjoyed this.  But my NES was definitely done years ago Such a sad story

In other news.  Apparently guys will check out girls even if it is dangerous

I am fascinated by how stuff works and how stuff is made, so this link is right up my alley

This is world yo-yo champion Jensen Kimmitt and this video is pretty much amazing.  Like 10 times in this thing I thought he had the yo-yo in an unrecoverable knot.  Seriously, it's amazing.  Also, where did the world go for awesome yo-yo videos before youtube was a thing?

If the yo-yo didn't impress you, this definitely will [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtztrcGkCBw&feature=player_embedded]

Best Web Junk (May 28)

Most important link this week -> Go Here and vote for Danny so one of my former students can win tickets to some country music thing that is apparently a pretty big deal These buildings are teh awesome

I am ashamed to even live in a country where this hat is a possibility. (Warning, it has a swear)

On the same week as the Lost finale there's really no more appropriate video to share than this one

But if that video doesn't do it for you, enjoy Iron Baby which is awesome
