Speed Skater Puts up World Record in never before seen vote on Youtube

 

Speed skater puts the fate of his world record on the line in never before seen vote on Youtube to get more people skating:

Danny Dannels skated across the United States in 2008, breaking the Guinness World Record. He is now putting the submission up for a vote on Youtube in an effort to bring attention to skating.

He says, “Skating is the answer to so many problems facing our society: Pollution, petrol dependence, physical fitness, and, mental health. Skating increases social skills and over-all happiness. Go skate!”

Voting is available online at:

Danny will be skating Trans-USA again August 2009. The original attempt was sponsored in part by Australian speed skate manufacturer Bont.

Through his current efforts, he is raising money to donate to the Police Athletic League in Miami, in honor of The Great EsSkate, and the Susan G. Komen Race for the cure, in the battle against breast cancer.

He will be skating Trans-USA again August 2009. As in 2008, he will skate from San Diego, California to Jacksonville, Florida.

He has received commitments from Bont North America and an offer from Newron Sports. World record skater Jonathan Seutter will draft Danny across California.

Are you prepared to be all that you can be?

 

Being all you can be.

Billy: “Hey man I think I’m going to join the military, it seems like a good way to get ahead in life.”

Me: “Oh Billy, let me show you this. You see, this boy had the same idea”

Billy: “That’s disturbing”

Me: “I know but if you really want to get ahead in the military this is the fastest way”

How Computers will Save Us All

 

How the internet will save us all.

How the internet will save us all.

 
This is what happens when kids take over the world.  First they try to sell you on how buying video games are bad for the environment, and then next they say, “Hey if we download games to play we are saving Mother Earth.” We should all do our part to help save the planet.

cheerleaders and their weird accidents

 

So, you wanna be a cheerleader? You better watch this video first! I never thought being a cheering squad member can be very hazardous to your health.. Just imagine being run over by brawny football players or landing on your face after being thrown into the air! Not good!

world’s largest denim pants!

 

Pure denim of 43 meters long and 7.5 tonnes heavy! The pants even had pockets, buttons and a belt! That got me thinking — how much did all this cost?? And for what? Just to be on the Guinness Book of World Records? Tsk!

weird news from around the world

 

COMMUNION WAFERS THIEF!
In the election hotspot of Florida, a man was busted for attempting to steal communion wafers from a priest. John Samuel Ricci, 33, allegedly knocked parishioners to the ground as he made his way out of St. Martin de Porres Catholic Church in Jensen Beach bearing the holy communion wafers. What for?? For sustenance? To sell it to the highest bidder? So weird! Anyhoo, Mr. Ricci was busted and he then asked if he could do penance. LOL!

SHOPPING VIA HELICOPTERS
Yup, this is the latest trend among wealthy Romanians. According to reports, the filthy rich fly their helicopters to the supermarket and land between cars in the parking lot. Recently, two men landed at the Real supermarket in Bacau, did their shopping, and took off via air. A witness said, “It’s the third time I’ve seen people coming shopping in their helicopters. I heard they are important persons, but I think they’re a little snobbish, too.” Snobs indeed! ;-)

ARMLESS MAN ROBBED GERMAN STORE
I told German people are superhumans! Even if they are maimed, disabled and armLESS, they still managed to rob a store! At least one armless German male did! According to reports, he made off with the 24-inch set TV using clamps that had been attached to his body by an accomplice. A cop said, “It’s hard to believe that the sight of an armless man walking along with a giant TV clamped to his body did not get anyone’s attention.”

The Chinese are definitely a talented and flexible lot! If you were amazed of seniors breakdancing then your eyes will pop out with this 5-year old Chinese kid doing backbreakin’ moves! This kid sure had a weird upbringing — I mean, who’ll teach a kid breakdancing?? D’oh!

Congratulations to President-Elect Barack Obama!

 

In the weirdest most historic US presidential election yet, Americans elected the first African-American president into the highest office of their country. The whole world watch in fascination while Barack Obama supporters celebrated and cried in what was dubbed as night where America proved once again that in their land, EVERYTHING is possible. Congrats to the US citizens and to the family of Obama who made this all happen!
