Bacon – it’s farkin delicious in any form: pork, turkey, or veggie (not really, but we got love for our WILOTW vegetarians) But, two questions remain:  Can you make a rocket out of bacon? Is it delicious in rocket form? You bet your ass you can and yes, it’s delicious – it’s bacon, dummy. Just imagine setting up a bacon rocket and positioning yourself at the exact location of its terminal landing zone. That’s one tasty rocket delivery, right into your gaping mouth. Crunchy delicious rocket <insert the obligatory Homer Simpson response: “Mmmmm bacon… bllllarrrrrghhhh – slobber”>

The guys over at rathergood.com have created this porkalicious rocket with a strict design policy of  using only edible materials (minus a guide straw), while maintaining proper porky aerodynamics.

You have to see their bacontacular video to believe it! Make sure you watch it through to the end for the surprise ending. It’s pork-a-larious. Ok, I have totally shamed myself in this WILOTW post by using to many pork/bacon mashup words and references…. Just go watch the damn video, already.

Might need to forward this to the boys at NASA…just sayin.

Got 5 seconds? Of course you do. Now, the question is, of course, what to do with those 5 seconds? Would you be interested in trading 5 seconds of your time to view a 5 second video skit that will have you laughing hysterically? If you are willing to trade your time for laughs, you need to go view the films over at…yes, you guessed it – 5secondfilms.com – AKA 5SF

About 5SF (from the site):
5-Second Films was created by Brian “Boss Man” Firenzi in the Spring of 2005, after being disappointed by so many 5,400-second films. The rules are simple: 2 seconds of beginning titles, 5 seconds of film, 1 second of end titles. If you take umbrage with these 5sfs running at an actual length of 8 seconds, we can only assume you’re no fun at dinner parties.

Now, let me be perfectly clear and issue these warnings:
1. Curses: Definitely ALOT of adult language – so…not always work safe, just sayin!
2. Risks: Chances are, when you start viewing these great skits, you will have a hard time just watching one video. I guess you can think of them as the “Lay’s” potato chips of the video arena.
3. Addiction: The humor is so clever it will have your wanting more. You will also be glad to know that the 5 Second Films team delivers a new video every weekday. So, for at least a brief moment each day, you can escape and enjoy some funnies.

Here are some to get you started:

You may know him as one of Rocky Balboa’s most formidable opponents, Captain Ivan Drago – a Russian boxer with incredible stamina and one helluva punch. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw Dolph Lundgren singing his face off at Melodifestivalen, an annual music competition organised by Swedish public broadcasters Sveriges Television (SVT) and Sveriges Radio (SR). What makes this even more awesome, is the fact that Dolph is singing an Elvis song. Who would have known that Dolph could pull that off? Got to admit, it’s pretty darn good!

And just for fun, Dolph throws in some karate moves and a drum solo! Yes, I said a drum solo.

Is there anything that Dolph can’t do? Well, he cant beat Rocky, we know that for sure. Oh, don’t act like you weren’t going to look up this Rocky fight. You know you wanted to see it.

ROCKY 4EVER!

If you are a gear head, gadget junky, photographer, software lover, etc., then surely, at one time or another, you have visited CNET to see what their opinion is on a piece of hardware or software. Have you ever wondered how a site like CNET goes through the review process? I have always wondered how they get it all done. The pictures, the videos, the written reviews, etc.  – it sure seems like a lot of work for each product they review. This job isn’t for those who can’t keep timelines, as the work-pace is fast and furious. CNET is a global leader in product reviews and has built a stellar reputation on the quality and thoroughness of their work. Below is a video detailing the CNET product review process – and it’s super cool.

Hulk Hogan, one of my childhood heroes, like many other children of the 80’s, has long been a cornerstone of Wrestling entertainment. The other night while I was watching re-runs of The Office, I could not believe what my eyes were seeing when Terry Hulk Hogan came sliding across the screen in a Rent-A-Center commercial. Yes!! I exclaimed, Hulk is back! I have always loved what Hulk has stood for – America, Freedom, & Kindness (well, except when he was with NWO – bleccchh).

I think the combination of Hulk Hogan and Troy Aikman is perfect! This commercial is pretty funny, once you get past the fact that two superheroes are peddling rent to own furnishings. Troy, an American football star – past quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, delivers his pitch with no-hype and little excitement. Add some Hulk Hogan in the mix and you have instant excitement and over the top delivery!

The two opposite poles make for a light-hearted, funny combination. Cheers for the marketing department over at Rent A Center! While a regular commercial from them may go unnoticed, you can’t ignore Hulk Hogan.

I say more companies should have Hulk Hogan as their spokesperson. At least you will pay attention, BROTHER!

Some Classic Hulk Endorsements from the 80’s

We have all purchased numerous flashlights over the years. Some expensive and some not so expensive. While we can almost always use a flashlight in our daily lives, my most common complaints, like many others, is that the flashlights I buy are not bright enough or they are too expensive.

This summer, during a family vacation, my brother in law had the opportunity to show me an amazing flashlight that he had purchased before the trip. It had an amazingly bright light, was compact in size, and was even gun-mountable. When he told me that it cost him nearly $100.00, I almost fell out of my chair.

When I came across this flashlight hack by Kipkay on youtube, I just had to write a post about it. Kipkay is an amazing life-hacker, small electronics guru, and prankster who has amassed millions of views on youtube with all of his how-to videos. I have been following this youtuber for quite some time because of this amazing content. Not only are his videos enjoyable to watch, but they inspire people to try some of his unique projects, often involving lasers!

Famous for his song, “That Girl”, David Choi will amaze you with his raspy voice and ability to compose catchy guitar riffs and melodies. I ran across David while I was listening to Julia Nunes, another talented up and coming musician, who plays a very unique instrument (you will have to read the post to see). David is extremely talented and his work has been featured on many different networks both here in the states and internationally.

Music artists, like David Choi and Julia Nunes, make me happy to go to itunes and buy their music because this is truly supporting artists that haven’t been poisoned by the ideas of the corporate music world, which often times ruins good musicians.

Check out David Choi’s – That Girl (This is the original upload from 07 )

No, we aren’t here to defend Tiger, and frankly, we could care less about all the Tiger drama. What we do care about is finding a Tiger related video game that surrounds this over-covered event. Eureka! We found one – Tiger Woods Wife Outrun – Tiger Hunting.

Yes, you play the role of Tiger running away from his wife in his SUV, with one of his “lady friends” sitting shotgun. I wonder what his wife is so mad about? We kid, we kid. Our top score was 115. Think you can do better? Give it a shot and then leave a comment with your score. It’s not as easy as you think.

What is a tix clock? Have you ever heard of such a thing? If you haven’t, don’t worry, this is why you subscribe to this blog, right? A tix clock, also known as the color pattern led clock,  is interesting in not only the way it functions as a clock, but its overall appearance and design. In a word – “cool”. It looks like something you would find on the Starship Enterprise. I wonder if William Shatner has one…hmmm. I digress.

Instead of looking at numeric digits to tell time, you look at the number of led lights within each zone. Let’s try another one. The led light values are (0)(5) (5)(6). In this example its 5:56. You get it? Of course you did.

If there are any in stock, you can get your very own tix clock here.
