3rd Rock From The Sun

I've been doing a lot of DVDs recently and it just so happens that they're from the 90's.  (See Dinosaurs).  The latest has been this show:
Yes, of course 3rd Rock From the Sun!  I never appreciated the humour back in the late 90's, but watching this show now is amazing.  A lot of the humour is derived from these aliens trying to act like humans.  Ex:  Harry filling up a salt shaker by picking up the grains with tweezers.

One thing I find interesting about the two TV shows that I've covered is that they both happen to be on Cracked.com's Most Soul Crushing Season Finales.  Read all about it here.


Anyway, I leave you with one of my favourite theme shows on TV, nothing beats this 50's style guitar:

Baby Bottle Pops and The Jonas Bros.


Baby Bottle Pops had the catchiest theme song ever.  Can't remember it?  You're crazy.  But for old times sakes:


The candy, and the commercial for that matter, were both introduced in 1998.  Likely airing on Saturday morning cartoons and causing headaches for parents all across the country.

Well it's not over yet.  In 2008 the Jonas Brothers redid the song.


I can't believe they'd do this to the original.  What do you guys think of this?

Velcro Shoes

Velcro shoes.  How I miss you!
I really wish I could revert to wearing velcro shoes again.  Just think about all of the pros if everyone wore velcro shoes.

1.  No one would look like a "loser" or a "dweeb" because we'd all be in the same sticky fabric boat.
2. You'd never have to struggle with tying up shoe laces ever again.  Heck, I don't even bother tying and untying my shoes anymore, I just slip them on.  Sure, it ruins the heels, but that's the last thing i want to struggle with in the mornings.  Sorry mom, I'll promise to take better care of my shoes.
3.  If there was ever a fire, all you'd have to do is peel the velcro back, slip your shoes on, slap the velcro back together and you're ready to get out!  Peel, Slip, Slap!

So, who's with me?!
