Just Discovered the YouTube Death Metal Cover Trend

Maybe it has to be 11:00 p.m. or later – like it is now – for me to find this stuff hilarious.  The fact remains that I am just tickled pink by this whole thing.  A bunch of YouTubers seem to enjoy taking old videos of pop hits and overdubbing them with death metal versions [...]

YouTube SuperNote Contest is a Hit!

It’s Friday.  The SuperNote challenge launched 5 days ago (I blogged that here).  I’ll tell you this much:  Rhett and Link dream big!  On Day 5, at 11:30 a.m. EST, 678 people have submitted their video SuperNote for the team captain of their choice.  That’s an average of 136 submissions a day.   The contest continues [...]

Discover Katers17 on YouTube Before She Becomes Too Famous for YouTube.

Katers17 is one of the YouTube team captains for the “SuperNote” collaborative experiment/contest spawned by Rhett and Link.  Don’t know about that yet because you don’t read my blog every day or because you don’t know Rhett and Link or because you actually have a life outside of the internet?  Well, either check out yesterday’s [...]

The SuperNote. You Know You’ve Got One In Ya.

I promised you I’d let you in on the new interactive project Rhett and Link have cooked up.  About an hour ago, they launched “SuperNote: The YouTube Experiment.” What’s this all about, you ask?  The Boiz (as I have decided to refer to them from now on whether they like it or not) describe it [...]

Can Your Cell Phone Cook Your Brain Right Inside Your Head?

By the time I received this email from my cousin Courtney, the “forward” was 10 levels deep.  This baby’s getting around!  Actually, this particular urban legend is enjoying a second life after last year’s viral campaign claiming an egg can be cooked by placing it between two activated cell phones.  The concept seems to have [...]

Rhett and Link Have a Meltdown!

A new video from Rhett and Link is always instantly blogworthy at this Garden Party!  Last night, after their weekly live chat, the fellas held what they referred to as an “after party.”  Their plans for the evening were to rehearse, record, and video tape a new song, called “The Economic Meltdown Song 08″ – [...]

Eeeeewwww! Bugs! (Except For This Cool Pet Spider!)

Since I moved to Florida, I’ve had to get a whole lot more comfortable with creepy things as a survival mechanism!  Things just don’t want to die here and they don’t want to stay small!  New Yorkers are supposed to be tough, but I have new respect for people who have lived with Palmetto bugs [...]

Stats: Who’d Have Thought It Would Be So Fascinating?

Well, this will be my 18th blog post.  I started it for kicks, figuring a few friends and family members might breeze by from time to time and check it out, but it would mostly be a little corner of the interwebz for me to keep my cool stuff.  When I set up The Garden [...]

The Internet Overdose Song

Ha!  I just got a Twitter tweet from Link Lamont of the “popular internet comedy duo, Rhett and Link.” It says, “New song and video (with free mp3),” and there was a tantalizing tinyurl that led me immediately to YouTube where I was among the first 400 people to view this:

I [...]

Time for Some Campaignin’

I love JibJab…especially at campaign time.  It seems so many of us lose our sense of humor when there’s an election on, especially if our candidate is the one being made fun of.  But, the folks at JibJab just throw everything up in the air and make fun of everyone…so there’s no reason not to [...]

Many Me’s – Indulging the Urge to Characterize

Just so you don’t think I spend all day on the internet wasting time and making no productive contribution to society whatsoever, let me say right off the bat that I’ve collected these character-ized versions of myself over a period of time…months, even.  I’m interested to know how many of these you’ve done yourself.  I [...]
