I know, you’ve seen this before, but every winter it seems like I post a video of this… Simple people like me are easily amused I reckon.

Silly Science Trick: Super-Cooling & Snap Freezing Experiment #137
While most people whine and complain about the cold weather, I look forward to it for many reasons. I don’t dig the heat, or the humidity at all, which is really funny because have opted to live in the South! What’s to look forward to? Snow, ice, seeing your breath, doing donuts in your car in the snow (uhmmm or …

Google Chrome is faster than lightning, sound and a speeding potato
I’m still feeling horrible after the accident on Friday so I am at home. Better to hurt at home than to go in to work and not get anything done, be more uncomfortable, feel more depressed and make everyone at the office as sick of hearing me whine about it as my family and even myself… It hurts to type, …
