A Brief History Of Weddings - Wedding Day Trivia

Image
I have a few friends that are thinking about getting married, and even more that have already taken that dreaded...I mean overly joyous trip down the aisle. Getting ready for a wedding is no picnic. You have to find a place to hold the ceremony, find a good caterer, get your wedding dress in order, and coordinate the whole thing so that your family, and friends are able to share in your special day without doing something to accidentally ruin the whole affair. Still, it is definitely something that can be planned for in order to make sure that things go as smoothly as possible. For those of you out there that are about to tie the knot, aka get married, you may be having some wedding day jitters. Well, one of the easiest ways to deal with those jitters is to do something to take your mind off the big day for awhile. Of course, another way to calm your nerves is to think about some of the folklore that surrounds the idea of having a wedding day. Why do we have wedding showers, and d

Stupid Jerks - Great Physics Game!

Image
If you have been in the mood for a new, and fun physics based game then you're in luck! Here comes Stupid Jerks! To be honest I'm not sure why the characters in this game are called “stupid jerks” (the birds in “Angry Birds” are angry because the pigs stole their eggs), but definitely don't let that stop you from having fun with this game. The premise is simple. You click on the various blocks to cause the stupid jerks to fall. Sometimes you click on a block to have the "Stupid Jerks" roll down the hill which can be difficult since they are shaped like octagons (creativity does come in handy with this game). The music is pretty cool, but if you don't want music at all, you can click on the musical notes to turn the music off. You can click on the picture of a speaker to turn off the sound effects. To start a new game, click on the "PLAY GAME" button No time like the present - check out this game below!!!

Funny Old Spice Scent-cation Commercial

One of the best things about going on a romantic vacation is that you get to be with the one your love. It is also one of the best times to really show your significant other that you really have some imagination, and can come up with some amazing ideas for the two of you to do. Combining ideas makes the most sense as well. For example, you could go to an amusement park during the day, and then at night take a ferry ride over to a secluded spot on the beach for a candlelight dinner. If you are vacationing in Central New Jersey , you could check out a really great concert, and then grab a bite to eat at one of the many great restaurants in the area. Creativity is the spice of life which helps a lot when planning a weekend getaway . Which is one of the reasons why I like this Old Spice commercial so much. They put together some of the best things to do on a romantic getaway all in one 30 second spot. Impressive!

Preparing For Swimsuit Season The Michael Phelps Diet Way

Image
Pretty soon, the summer will be upon us, and people will be journeying far, and wide to find the perfect bikini. There are several bikinis to choose from - you can go with a one piece, or a two piece. But regardless of what swimsuit you choose, you are going to have to work out in order to tone up that beautiful body of yours to make it look the best that you can. Yoga, Pilates, and good old weight lifting are excellent ways to get your body in tip top condition in no time. And one of the ways to make your workout progress go even further is to go on a really good diet. If you are getting ready for the summer, then you know how hard it is to find the right diet to help you get slim, and trim in as little time as possible. Just about everyone has this problem from construction workers, to librarians, to computer analysts. Even swimmers have a hard time finding a diet that's right for them...well, except for Michael Phelps. Michael has found the perfect diet that works wonders fo

Great Online Games - Marble Lines

Image
If you're looking for a way to have some fun, and relax for awhile, then this is the game for you! Check out Marble Lines! The concept of the game is pretty straight forward. After you let the game load, click on the word "Play" in the middle of the left hand side of the screen. Your objective is to destroy groups of marbles which can be accomplished by matching three or more marbles together. You click on the left mouse button to shoot the marble that is loaded in your cannon. If you look at the top of the cannon there is a color on the back of the launcher. That is the marble that will be next in line to shoot. You can switch out the current marble, and the upcoming marble by pressing the space bar. You can change the aim of your cannon by moving your mouse around, or by moving your finger on your touchpad. If you need to pause the game, change the sound level of the music or sound effects, just click on the picture of the gear in the upper right corner of the

Great Online Games - Hippos vs Rhinos

Image
In this puzzle game, your goal is to save the hippos while getting rid of the rhinos. You do that by clicking on the various objects that will cause the hippos to be saved. However, if both a hippo, and a rhino is present you have to figure out a way to get rid of the rhino while being able to save the hippo. The levels start out very easy, and get progressively harder. I can't say that this game reminds me of Angry Birds, but it is along the lines of it. But instead of launching projectiles at the rhinos, you click on objects to clear them in order to save the hippos while getting rid of the rhinos. Have fun!
