War Is Hell!

And this video of a mini gun both helicopter and truck based is proof once again it's not a good idea to be a bad guy.

There was something fishy at the ESPY awards.

I watched the ESPN Espy awards last night and now know why they didn't air live. It's not because of the possibility of someone using foul language or a streaker running across the stage. It's because the audience was bored to death.

Each time an award was given away they would switch to a camera angle showing the back of the presenters, the crowd and the recipients walking to the stage. That in itself is not unusual. What is however, is the fact that the audio you heard sounded like of hundreds of people applauding, the video showed no one in the crowd applauding or cheering, or whistling. They all sat their with their hands in their laps.

This didn't happen just once or twice it happened every time. I'm sure they replay it or you can find some video on YouTube. Check it out for yourself. It took a weeks worth of editing and production to get it ready for airing.

I'll give them credit for Jimmy Kimmel and LeBron James. They were great.

My 30th High School Reunion

Well, my 30th High School reunion has come and gone and I must admit I'm very glad I went. I was a bit nervous at first but as it turns out for no good reason. Meeting with my old friends was truly special. We attended Cardinal Newman High in West Palm Beach and graduated in 1977. After not seeing many of them for 20 to 30 years it was as if we had never been apart. But then I guess that's why they were my friends to begin with.

Above is just one of the photos from the reunion. The photo is of me with my two best friends Henry Riess (center) and Raul Aragon (right). Henry is a pilot with American Airlines and Raul is a Pharmacist and owns his own Pharmacy in Boynton Beach FL.

Would you drive across this bridge ?

I'll be the first to admit that I'm not real fond of heights and the thought of driving over this bridge makes me feel a little woozy.

The Millau viaduct is part of the new E11 expressway connecting Paris and Barcelona and features the highest bridge piers ever constructed. The tallest is 787 feet high and the overall height will be an impressive 1102 feet, making this the highest bridge in the world. I must say it is a nice view! 787 feet high!

Giant Anaconda Snake

I found this photo while surfing through Reddit. It's a photo of an Anaconda eating a cow. I'm not sure if this is a great Photoshop manipulation or the real thing but I thought I would share it anyway.

Is he faking an injury? I hope so!

Is the rematch between Takeru 'Tsunami' Kobayashi and Joey Chestnut in doubt? Last year at the Nathan's annual 4th of July Hot Eating Contest, Kobayashi narrowly defeated Chestnut to win the Mustard Belt for the sixth year in a row. Defending his title this week may not be possible for Kobayashi. First, his mother passed away in March, causing the Tsunami to take a sabbatical from training.

Now there's a story circulating that he has an arthritic jaw and is only able to stick one finger in his mouth. I'm really looking forward to the showdown between these two. I'm also looking forward to seeing how the underdog "black Widow" will do again this year. And as tradition dictates I'll go buy a package of Nathan's Famous to celebrate with.
