• Alex Jones on Piers Morgan

    January 8, 2013 / No Comments

    So the video of Alex Jones on Piers Morgan has been popping up on the internet today. Alex Jones is one of those people that I ignore in hopes that he will go away. Here is part one.


    I don’t even know why Piers had him on his show. It’s obvious that Alex Jones is incapable of having an intelligent conversation. The pro-gun people seem to think the gun control people want to take away all guns, but that’s far from the truth. The gun control people don’t want to take away all guns, they just want to try and limit the number of gun deaths.

    I am pretty split on the gun control issue. I don’t think we should take away people’s guns because of rare anomalies like school shootings. They may see common, but in reality they are still pretty rare. I’m not really sure if added gun control would even make a difference, but maybe some things could be done better. I’ve never bought a gun, so I really don’t know how hard it is, or what regulations there are.

    In a perfect world, both sides would sit down and make legislation that makes sense and doesn’t punish gun owners and yet prevents some of the deaths. But of course this isn’t a perfect world.

    Here is part 2 if you can handle more of Alex Jones, I couldn’t take any more of him myself.

  • Videos of people playing bass flutes

    January 4, 2013 / No Comments

    Being the band geek that I was in high school, I’ve always loved obscure musical instruments. In high school I played the Baritone because that’s about as obscure as you can get in high school. Most people probably don’t know what a baritone is unless they were in band themselves. I liked it because I was always the only baritone player. I didn’t have to worry about the different competitions for different chairs. That being said, I had to be good. I couldn’t just fake my parts because I was the only one.

    Being a low brass member along with the tuba and trombone players, we always thought ourselves as a little better than the rest of the band. We were big, bad, low, and loud. We always made fun of the flute and clarinet players. Our favorite saying was, “I wish I played the clarinet, I’d be cool, yeah you bet”. It was all in good fun though. We knew it took everybody to make the band.

    What I didn’t know is that there was such a thing as a bass flute. How cool is the flute in the above video? Now that’s a flute I would love to learn to play.

  • Penn Jillette on The Wendy Williams Show

    Today it’s another Penn Jillette video. It’s from The Wendy Williams Show. I have no idea who Wendy Williams is, and I’ve never seen her show. I just found it funny how all the women were talking over the the only voice of reason. I totally agree with Penn here, and found it a little sad that the women weren’t even listening to him.
