A Demonstration on Pride

May 11, 2008 – 1:11 pm

In my church we’ve been doing a series on the 7 deadly sins. Today’s sermon was on pride, and we opened with a video presentation that included this YouTube clip here of a girl upset because her father just gave her a car that was red, and she REALLY wanted blue. Her reaction is priceless, and I couldn’t do it justice here with a description… you just have to watch.

The real hero here is her little brother, who was able to leverage his father’s preoccupation, his sister’s hysteria, and the overall commotion to courageously capture the whole event on video. Remarkable!

Have you ever heard the expression “better to be thought a fool and remain silent, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt?” Well, lest you think that this girl’s initial reaction was a caught-in-the-moment, out-of-character, knee-jerk, emotionally-charged reaction to what was a wonderful gift… she was kind enough to record a video response that removes any doubt she is indeed a spoiled, self-absorbed whore-child.

Legends of Hiro

May 8, 2008 – 11:08 pm

Legends of HiroLegends of Hiro (created by Visual Noise) is a Japanese-style RPG (that’s role-playing game, not rocket-propelled grenade) in the vein of a bazillion other games, like Final Fantasy. This game is actually fairly involved, has some crudeness to it (you’ve been warned) and will help kill time during your boring classes. :-) This Flash file is large (>2MB) so be patient.

Mini-Putt

May 8, 2008 – 9:19 pm

Mini-Putt - Flash GameAhh… I have fond memories of playing every mini-golf course in my hometown. I loved it - loved everything about it - but probably most liked that I was actually GOOD at it even as a youngster. Well here’s a little Flash goodie aptly named Mini-Putt that brings a little mini-golf to your browser. It’s a bit crude but a great time-killer. Enjoy!

Sky Chopper

May 8, 2008 – 8:52 pm

Sky Chopper - Flash GameSky Chopper is a fun side-scrolling shoot-em-up by Crazy Monkey Games (gotta love that name). There’s lots of fast action, tough enemies, and plentiful power-ups. This game almost reminds me a little of Chopper Command on steroids. Ahh… the good ‘ole days. *sigh*

Just a note - this file is large (>2MB) so you school kids with slow connections will need to practice your patience. :-) Anyways, check this game out, and be sure to head over to Crazy Monkey Games and show them some love, too.

Can you hear my bullets now?

May 6, 2008 – 10:44 pm

Ahh… the good ole’ call-your-parents-before-a-firefight gag. That one never gets old. In fact, I think I’m going to start ending all my phone conversations with “Incoming! RPG! _click_”.

‘Iron Man’ movie’s Stark Industries is clearly a spoof of Lockheed Martin

May 5, 2008 – 4:14 pm

I have received enough feedback about my previous Iron Man post relating to the connection I drew (rather effortlessly, let’s admit) between Stark Industries and Lockheed Martin that I wanted to post about it individually.

And speaking of… did anybody besides me notice that Stark Industries was a completely un-subtle spoof of Lockheed Martin Corporation, the United States’ biggest defense contractor? Not only does the Stark Industries logo (complete with bold-italic capitals and elongated angle-point) look strikingly like Lockheed Martin’s, but they even make the same F-22 Raptor fighter jets!?

I checked Google and my blog was the first to make the direct connection between the two (albeit obvious). Since then, it has popped up on a few other blogs and the Stark Industries entry on Wikipedia has been updated to reflect the company logo’s peculiar likeness to Lockheed Martin’s.

I would say “you be the judge”, but is there any doubt?

Lockheed Martin was clearly spoofed as Stark Industries in the movie Iron Man
