"Action News"

I was watching "Action News" and they were showing a story about Obama's visit to Ghana. He was telling them about how they should get their act together. In the middle of the story they cut Obama off and said "this just in : we wanted to share this viral video we came across." And then they played this...



Afterwords the anchorman said, "that movie actually wasn't newsworthy, we just wanted to show it off."

This seriously happened. Did anyone else see it? Should I be surprised that happened.
Do you watch "Action News"?

Zoo Art

This week's art spotlight is a photograph from the zoo.


















As we look at art we have to ask questions.
This week's question's:
Is photography "art"?
How does this picture make you feel about animals in zoos?
Is this image sad/happy/uplifting/chill/nostalgic (via Lion King hog)?
Would this be better as a painting?
Would this be worth more money as a painting?
How did the artist/photographer get into the pen with that creature?
Is hopping fences an art?
What lengths are you willing to go to in order to get "the shot"?
Is shooting animals with cameras better than shooting them with guns?
What title would you give this piece?

Fourth of July




Milton's Movie imparted his wisdom on America by giving us this quote.

Duval is teeming with fast food. I found this blog that takes fast food and reforms it to be even more amazing food. This blog is insane.
Its called fancyfastfood.com
Here is an example of some popeyes chicken. (the only outside ingredient is wasabi sauce.)

Baseball Cards


















Do you remember the Jacksonville Expos?

Wonder what these two players are up to these days?


















Not sure what this means. Looks like Randy is dodging flaming baseballs and sweeping up money with his one gangly leg. Not sure who that other dude is.

Larry Walker seems to be doing well.
























Did you know Randy Johnson was on the Simpsons

























I wonder who will be the next Jacksonville based baseball superstar.

I hope you have been going to the Suns games. This video made me cry.

Tornado





Did yall see the tornado today? It was spooky-cool.

Did you immediately think about that 90's movie about those storm chasers?



Did you know that tornados can turn into fire?























Looks like birds can make tornados too (only the first 9 seconds of this video are worth watching.)



Have you seen a tornado before? I saw my first tornado in Orlando.
