He'll backflip anything that rolls.

Tricycle on MEGA Ramp - Travis Pastrana (backflip) - video powered by Metacafe
I'm sure you've seen this video before since it is a few weeks old already (yeah, I should have posted it when I first seen it when it was still new but I had something else going on. Like what? I'm not sure but it probably wasn't that great.). Basically, if you give any rolling object to Travis Pastrana and a big enough ramp (seriously the ramp in the video is huge, I hope it wasn't built solely for this stunt because that would be a waste of a huge ramp. I mean you could take a skateboard down it, a bike, a motorcycle, and/or probably a battleship) and he'll do a backflip. I'm just waiting for the video of him backflipping his rally car.

"Where the fuck does this shit come from?"

I think we all have ran across something on the internet that makes you say "Where the fuck does this shit come from?". I'm sure even Scott has said this before and he has seen the end of the internet (you know, the sign that says "End of Internet"). . . twice. I seen this video on someone else's blog and thought it was funny, so here it is on my little space. Hope you enjoyed.

Perfect winter car?

And you guys thought this would be about an FJ. I had to post something to push the Focus pics a little lower on the screen. I figured this was worth posting. Actually, I have been fairly slow on the posting front for the new year. I'll try to do more (yeah, right) but I haven't really found anything worthwhile.

It Starts With One Vinyl Sticker: A short play written by Scott

-Ryan reaches for his cell phone and searches through his contacts.

*beep*beep*boop*buup*beep*boop*b00p*

*ring*ring*

Ryan: (doing the pee-pee dance) COME OOOONNNN, PICKUPPICKUPPICKUP

*ring*click*

J.C.W. call center operator: Hello and thank you for calling J.C. Whitney, your favorite supplier of stick-on automotive garbage. How can I help you sir or ma'am?

Ryan: I NEED ONE OF EVERYTHING, NOW GOD DAMMIT! (twitching)

J.C.W.O: Ah, it's you again Mr. H! People like you are the only reason we are still in business.

-3-5 business days later, automotive nirvana is achieved...

Robocop Rikey Fried Chicken

First, the title I stole for FilmDrunk. I seriously doubt I could have came up with something better and I dare you to try. Apparently this commercial is from Korea (don't know if it's North or South but my guess is that Kim Jong Illest Motherfucker You Know probably wouldn't approve of this, so there's your answer) and from the 80's. My favorite part is when he steals the fridge, probably to go have his way with it and create Robofridge's or Fridgecops.

Who want's to help me build a ramp?

I completely forgot about this little stunt thing was going on last night. This is the same dude that jumped a football field last New Year's Eve (if I remember correctly, I think it had a post here). Apparently he thought that wasn't enough. So back to Vegas he goes to step-up to the top the Arc d' Prettyfuckintall Thing and then drop off of it back to the ground. What the hell is wrong with you to even think this is a good idea? Now don't get me wrong, this guy is the definition of "ruler" but this is pretty ridiculous. Then there is this guy:

Backflipping a truck? It's good to know that awesome stuff like this is still happening even with all the safety conscious people and with the economy going in the shitter (remember in Christmas Vacation, Cousin Eddie "Shitter's full!). Yeah, this isn't like Evel Knievel wearing just a leather suit and a pretty thin padded helmet. But just think of how many people these two stunts made it through without some big wig saying no to it. But maybe it helps that these were sponsored by Red Bull (in case you couldn't tell). There is probably a bunch of dudes hopped up on Red Bull and just throwing money at stuff like this. Really, who else could sponsor this kind of stuff? Anyway, I'm off to build some crazy ramp to front flip the FJ.

Oh and I found out how to embed the HD videos from the Youtube. Awesome. But they do take a little longer to load, so just go grab a bag of Dorito's while your waiting.

Christmas time is here . . .

Thought you's guys would like a little Christmas treat. And if your office or place of employment is anything like mine, you're probably sick of hearing Jingle Bells, Jingle Bell Rock (especially when sung by Mecha-Streisand), White Christmas, or any other song played on XM 35 Holly. Nothing like a little Run DMC to get you in the Christmas spirit. And how sweet would it be to get a hat and gold chain for Christmas?

Last minute gift ideas for the FJ . . . (or crap found on ebay)

It's Saturday morning, snowing outside, Susinator is still in sleep mode, and I have the internet and ebay at my disposal. And this is the kind of crap I found. Originally I was just going to go through 10 pages, but this stuff was too good to stop after 10 pages of searching. So 34 pages later, this is the best I found.
1. Hood scoop. Functional . . . nope. But how can you go wrong with the double scoop look?
2. Laptop mount. We have the macbook now so obviously I need to bring it in the FJ so I can mobile blog (could you imagine how dumb the posts would be then. . . brutal).
3. Chrome hood thing. Yeah, because I want people to thing I have a Hummer. And like the hood scoop, installation is easy with double stick tape.
4. Rear roof ladder. Oddly enough, the FJ pictured doesn't have a roof rack. So why do you need a ladder?
5. Seat covers. How classy are these? And the colors are great!!1
6. Chrome blingy (if I ever use bling or any other form of the word on here again, please punch me in the nuts) replacement taillights. It was the closest I could find to Altezza taillights. And we all know how cool those are.
7. Wood trim kit. How classy is this? Nothing adds to the interior like fake, exotic wood covering everything.
8. Projector headlights. They even have the "angel eye". I think these would probably look like tits when they are actually installed (they would look tits and look like tits, weird).
9. Grille cover. Yeah, because I want people to think I have a Jeep.
10. Battery operated, princess FJ. I think I just found how I'm going to paint my FJ.

There was actually more stupid shit on the ol' bay but this is a solid cross section of the shit. What kind of people actually buy this stuff? I mean the FJ (and this may sound a little preachy or like an ad but just hang with me) is a fairly serious off-road vehicle that doesn't have a lot of extra "fancy" stuff. The paint is even non-metallic so it is easier to touchup if you scrap it against trees (or if someone door dings you). Then again, I've seen pictures of people that have put 24's with lowpro tires on their FJ's. And to all those people . . . whatever.

Winter Drive Time Fun . . . Oh boy (end sarcasm)

Wondering what the roads were like this past Sunday from Renville to about Stewart. Well look at the above pics. That pretty much sums it up. No troubles (I mean, we were in the FJ) just a little snow and a lot of wind. Hell, we even got passed a couple of times. Which makes sense, since you could almost see 100 ft in front of you.
