Friday Giggle

Do I know why?

No....

It just makes me giggle.

Picture this face

Sarah Haskins on Panthers

Yes. Hooray.

See more Sarah Haskins awesome here

Happy Friday!

Among the many silly Youtube hits out there (think numanuma and chocolate rain guy) there are some gems... And one of my favorites is the story of Christian the Lion.

The story is about two men, John Rendall and Ace Bourke who were living in London in the 60s. They saw a young lion cub in a cramped cage at a department store and decided to rescue it. Well, the rest, I'll let you watch...



In an interview with Meredith Vieira the two men talk about that beautiful moment that was captured on film.

"He ran toward us with such love and excitement in his eyes, and we felt exactly the same way. We were just so excited to see him, looking so big and healthy. The story had just turned out so beautifully, when it could have had a very different ending.”

Rendall referred to the film in describing the reunion. “You can see in that clip his body language,” he said. “When he first starts seeing us, he’s looking, looking. Is it us? Is it us? And then suddenly, he says, ‘Right, this is them.’ And down he comes. And there wasn’t a moment that we ever doubted that it was going to be a wonderful greeting … we never doubted it.”

Now Sony Pictures is trying to secure rights to make a movie based on the book Rendall and Bourke wrote in 1972, "A Lion Called Christian." That is another movie I'm definitely going to see.

HEAR ME ROAR :)

...Because damn it, I needed to laugh today!

Friday Funny - Feminists created the gays!

Because there's no one better to give you advice than a man wearing a toliet seat around his neck while pointing a water gun at a cherry.

Also his desk nameplate reads "The Viking"



"If the mom wears the pants, the boys are gonna wear the skirts.... it's scientific."

Ahhhhh stupid people... always good for a laugh,

Pardon me while I freak out

RQ, I feel your pain....

I couldn't settle down after watching this netflix movie.



Several times in the documentary people mention how strong women are and how amazing giving birth is.

I've never had children. And now I'm officially to scared to do it naturally OR in a hospital.

See, I've had major abdominal surgery and it sucked hardcore... so c-sections are out. And I think I'm dying when I have the flu, so not sure how my wimpy ass would tackle natural labor pains.

I guess that leaves adoption because I watched those women give birth vaginally and all I could think was, "UMMM, HOW IS THIS HAPPENING?"

Weekend Giggle

Every time I saw this chair infomercial I freaked out -- seeing it come to life on Ellen was the best gut laugh I've had in a while.

I *heart* Ellen so much!

Friday Giggle

Today I stumbled upon the site, I Heart Guts.

There you can purchase t-shirts, buttons, stickers and gym bags with cute, cartoon organs. You can also buy plush organs. Like the "Womb service" uterus (which, naturally I just ordered).



The ad copy says:

This soft pink uterus is ready for action! When it's that time of the month, you may not like your uterus much, but hey, you wouldn't be here without one, so give props to this special reproductive organ. Besides, if you think cramps are bad, you should try childbirth. This extra-soft 8" x 7" plush comes with an informative tag that describes the magic that is the uterus.

HELL YES! Show the reproductive system some love.

I think it would be great idea for pediatric doctors or parents to order the whole range of these toys- what a fun (and less scary) educational tool for children. I also think these make great gift ideas. For example, I purchased the "When urine love" kidney for my aunt who is losing a kidney to cancer.

My fave came when I placed my order...

Thank You!
Your order was a grand success. Let's party.

The guts are working on your order! Processing and shipping usually take 5-10 business days, depending on the mood of the USPS. We do our best to send the freshest guts possible, though we don't ice 'em, that costs extra.

Run by the site today and check them out. They even sell a kick-ass uterus t-shirt.

Coming up: My review of the Obama/Clinton rally -- really I will write about it- I just fell behind :)
