Japanese Pranks

Posted by Cameron on January 21, 2008

In the wonderful world of Japan, things aren’t as uptight as they are here in the states. For instance, whats normal television in Japan may be rated “R” content here, or mixed baths for instance. Anyways another thing they tend to do is pull pranks on unsuspecting people and then air it on the television. Sounds fun right? That is until your flying down a mountain side naked with rocket boosters strapped to your seat. Video after the break.

Martin Luther King Jr. Day

Posted by Cameron on January 21, 2008

January 15th, 1929 marks the day that one of the greatest African Americans was born into this world, and it is on the 3rd Monday of every January that we celebrate that birth. Martin Luther King Jr. was truly an inspirational man and I hope that we are all appreciative of his sacrifices in pushing the civil-rights movement.

MLKjr“I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.” I have a dream that one day on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at a table of brotherhood. I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state, sweltering with the heat of injustice and oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice. I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today.”

~ Martin Luther King Jr.
