Watch an office desk or six get destroyed.
Amazon has a pretty good sale today where you get 4 products for the price of 3

If you have forgotten, then this is a reminder that it's the last day of your life. Watch for falling comets and tsunamis. Not that you can get out of the way. But enjoy their beauty in the seconds before you die. And if you see any crop circles, burn them.
Amateur YouTube video that's better than TV. It's a guy dating three girls, including Franki, star podcaster of the Missile Blaster show. Too funny! There's already six episodes.
Another candidate for the Play Tag With Me contest. Thanks Coolz0r.

P.S. If you don't know, the person who sends me the best link every month, gets a free book from Amazon (<$20). The trick? You have to send me the link using the del.icio.us for:randymorin tag.
This is pretty funny. A YouTube video advertising a relationship cheaters registry. He's so pissed at his cheater girlfriend that he created a registry for people like her.
YouPrez is a contest where you make a video of yourself pretending to be the president and people vote for your video. All on YouTube. Upload your video and tag it youprez. I think I'm gonna do this.
I don't know what happened. I was walking by the nuclear plant and I let one rip. The noise is not of the building falling, which actually happens well after the video ends.
OK, here's the deal. If there is ever a vote for worst blog ever and I get zero votes, then I'm gonna do a Silvia Night on the entire blogosphere.
In the comments of my sarcastic you only have 18 days left to live blog entry, comes a link to Save Live in May. Predictions of a Big Tsunami on Atlantic Coasts. It appears Halifax and Newfoundland are in the biggest trouble, followed by the entire U.S. coasts. Of course, we were warned by the crop circles and aliens long ago. Stupid us!

This is from America's Funniest Videos, which I'm currently watching. This stuff just doesn't get old. I remember this video from about 10 years ago. I cry laughing everytime.
And tell me again why we need major television networks that spend enormous amounts of money producing crap?
Is there anything funnier than talking dogs? How about talking judo dogs? Thanks Phil! Subscribed I think Phil just took the lead in our game of tag.
PR: 724 Solutions announced today that the Company's common shares will be delisted from The Nasdaq Capital Market effective with the open of business on Thursday, May 18, 2006.

Randy: Finally! A great chapter in my life comes to an end.
Public Service Blog Entry. Re-Blog this and/or send it to two friends. This is important.
An Inconvenient Trusth is a movie starring Al Gore, the x-VP of the United States. It's a documentary about global warning. A must see for all humans. They have website and a blog subscribed.
I'm sorry to report that Randy Charles Morin died laughing after watching this video. Don't watch it, if you cannot control your laughter.
Who'd a thought watching a guy dance would be entertainment.

BTW, Coolz0r's winning this months game of tag, with this amateur MySpace movie.
Maarten Schenk's got his blog on. I gotta get me some blogging T's.
One of many gorgeous trees in my backyard. I can't believe someone sold me this house for such a steal. Click here for a closeup of the flowering on that tree. Check out the entire set!
I think I found the worst blog ever. It's authored by someone called Joe Reger. Beyond the 500+ HTML validation errors on his homepage, his RSS is also invalid and if you examine the RSS in detail he uses an extension, which I assume he invented, which is extremely tag heavy and data lacking. It's hard to explain, just look at it. Further, when I first saw his blog, my eyes had to blink off the pain (the layout hurts the eyes).
You know the game. Now you can play it. Online. Sounds like tomorrow is a no work day.
Two and a half years ago, perpetual motion was finally realized.
There in. Webby Awards. The best of the Web for 2006.

I got this video from YouTube, but there's a better one on SFGate.

It's not all that bad being a fly. Does this meet AdSense content quidelines?

Reality TV shows have gotten really lame. There's one called Shipwrecked which is nearing it's finally. The winning team of 14 players get to split 70 thousand pounds. Yep, that's 5 thousand pounds for 5 months of work, living on a deserted island with next to nothing but cameramen video taping your half-naked ass. WTF?
Just a reminder, you only have 18 days left to live. I plan on blogging right up to the last second. And I'm checking the mailbox for that Google AdSense check, the day of. I want to take my blogging money to the afterlife.
astreet is winning this month's game of play tag with me with this link. There's still lots of time this month, keep the links coming.
AP: Despite a judge's recommendation that he only receive a reprimand, a city worker accused of disregarding warnings to stay off the Internet at work has been fired.
Randy: Finally, an employer with some teeth. Some will look at this incident and call the employer (the City) a dinosaur. I disagree. This guy is not paid tax money to surf the Internet. Well, it's not my tax money, but if it was, I'd send his manager a thank you. BTW, I highlighted disregarding warnings for a reason. It's not like he surfed the Internet once and was fired, he was a repeat offender.
As reported here earlier this week, some idiots decided to sue a blogger in an attempt to suppress his voice. The plaintiff has unconditionally surrendered.

Public Service Post. Please Repost.
Jennifer Kesse still remains missing and there's now a $250,000 reward.

ABS-CBN: A Roxboro, Canada, woman has filed a formal complaint with a local school board after her son was disciplined by a lunch program monitor for eating in what she says is a customary Filipino manner.
http://www.abs-cbnnews.com/storypage.aspx?StoryId=36767
Randy: This is both absurd and comforting. Absurb that anybody would even care how a 7-yr old uses their utensils. Comforting to know that people in Montreal are as stupid as people in Toronto. He's a lunch program monitor, not a rocket scientist. And he qualifies as Idiot of the Month on this blog.
This last weekend, I blogged about this Insane Lady on FOX News. Last night, I stumbled onto more information about this U.S.-based cult. There Website is godhatesfags dot com and they call their cult the Westboro Baptist Church. These guys are severely mucked. Some data I've read.
- Brent Roper is married to his adopted sister Shirley Roper.
- The church believes JFK and Marilyn Monroe were assassinated by the CIA to stop the spread of AIDS in America.
- The local authorities are afraid to deal with the church and simply don't.
By allowing such cults to exist, the United States is fostering hate. This isn't on the same scale as Taliban's fostering of the al-Qaeda, but it's still wrong.
Some have begun compiling information on the cult on Wikipedia, but in true Wikipedia form, some of the Wikipage are being considered for deletion (the ones with the highest percentage of external links). I'm not linking to any of this information as I don't want to give any Google juice on the subject, but you can easily do your own searches on Google and discover the same information.
Red Flag Deals: The BC Lottery Corporation is giving out $5 of online play money, good towards their online lottery offerings until May 5. This is restricted to residents of British Columbia.
WKPA is suing Lance Dutson, a blogger, because Lance revealed on his blog how WKPA was wasting taxpayers money. They argue that by revealing the companies incompetance, that he has hurt their $40 million business. WKPA is particularly worried that Lance's blog is showing up in searches for their businesss. Guess what? They've got bigger SEO problems now. Searching for WKPA businesses in a month will return mostly crap about lawsuits and bloggers.
Have you guys seen the new Superman trailer? I haven't. I've tried now on several computers, at work and at home. Same error. I'm getting this error more and more with every passing day. Anybody know what's up? If you Google the error, then you get a bunch of confused users.
The Oozinator is very creepy. What were they thinking?
Last month, I challenged my readership to send me links via del.icio.us using the for:randymorin tag. I got more links than I care to count (hundreds). The best link would be awarded a Amazon book (up to $20 USD). The best link for April was from Coolz0r who sent me the American Dad vs Family Guy flash game. I told Coolz0r to pick a book and he picked Permission Marketing by Seth Godin. Honorable mentions to astreet, femetal, scotbuf, Chris Nolan, Dave Walker, and Sterling Camden, whom also gave links that I re-blogged over the last month.
If I didn't point back to your blog, it's because I'm not sure who you are and simply left your del.icio.us ID. Ping me and I'll update with a link. Thanks to all that participated.
