  1. The video with the moose slipping on the ice ... I love the Tim Hortons on the dash of the car. I drink Timmy Ho's every morning. It's the very best. (Not to promote it or anything. It's just my opinion).

    Great bunch of pics & videos. Thanks for making my morning enjoyable :)

  2. The moose and the guy on the pogo stick made me cringe and I kept watching them over and over. Shame on me. You always post great funnies.

    Thank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.

    Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. ♥

  4. Always an enjoyable round-up. (Had to steal the Monster-C43 one.)

    I demand to know how you got that picture of my cat.

  6. I love bloopers.
    The Fetch Me His Soul, dog is actually kinda cute...for a demon.
    If we could see what the sky actually looked like with just our naked eyes, that would be cool. I have to go to places with little to no lights just to see the stars.

    Sleestak!

  7. Rhys Ap Thomas: If that is actually literally your cat and you object to the picture being here, let me know and I'll remove it.

    I have about fifty thousand pictures saved which I found various places around the internet. In most cases I don't remember where I found a specific one, but I think I found that cat picture on another blog somewhere. The whole internet is awash in cat pictures.

  8. Applequeen: Glad you liked them. Interesting about Tim Horton's -- I thought they were only in Canada.

    Sandee: It's hard to resist those kinds of mishaps.

    Darrell: I always try to include some beautiful ones.

    Ricko: I wish I knew who made that monster picture. It gets more disturbing the more you look at it.

    Mary K: I bet Star Wars had a lot of good bloopers.

    I think the image with the houses and the small field and then the Milky Way above must have been done with some kind of ultra-sensitive film to make the stars look so bright. Notice how the ground looks illuminated almost like daytime, although it must have been night.

  9. I love your roundups. You always post the best shit.
    That Vlad the Impaler goes shopping had me laughing. Looked like the Garden Center in Walmart.

  10. Glad you like them -- there's plenty more where these came from.

    Looks like Vlad has found what he's looking for. The garden center would be appropriate for setting up his "forests".

  11. I live within reasonable driving distance to that prison in Florence. I have never seen it from above however. There are burrowing owls who nest in prairie dogs holes in front of the prison and as birdwatchers, my friend and I have risked pulling over to look at them. We have yet to be arrested for looking at the prison through binoculars.

  12. Lucky escape. But the owls were probably taken in for questioning.
