Miley Cyrus (daughter of the Achy Brakey Heart Billy Ray Cyrus guy), also known as Hanna Montana, is well on her way to becoming the next Paris Hilton. This girl is 15 years old, but she’s already got photos of her floating around the Internet in her underwear, hanging all over her boyfriend, and in a bikini posing as sexy as she possibly can.
Its funny because if you visit her unbelievably annoying web site, it’s all bling-ed out like a Disney animation. Meanwhile, she’s romping around taking photos like she’s a 15 year old prostitute. Wonder how much more it will take before Disney drops her like a dirty rag?

This is actually pretty amazing, if it isn’t staged (and it doesn’t look like it is). For those of you who are unaware, in Google Maps you now have the option in many cities to check out a Street View of the map you’re looking at, which will allow you to see whatever you would see if you were standing in that position.
The way they accomplish this is by having a specially fitted fleet of cars that have 360 degree cameras driving all over the place taking pictures. Once in a while they capture something really interesting. This is one of those times.

I’m a big fan of Kansas and love the song Carry On Wayward Son. Obviously the song is a classic. It’s got some serious guitar work, drums, keyboard… well it’s got just about everything a good old rock band needs. Except, that is, a 10 year old girl!
Luckily I’ve got just the prescription for them.
I wish I knew something else about the little girl in the following video, but what I do know is that she pretty much plays every instrument in this song on a Yamaha keyboard all at the same time! At times while I’m watching it I seriously wonder if she is really playing it, but it’s far too good of an act not to be for real.

Ok. The first time I took a look at this I thought it was insane. Who in their right mind would let a kid take a high powered dune buggy and drive it flat out like a maniac? I mean, for God’s sake the guy has to put a couple of massive blocks of foam in the seat just so the kid can sit there!
But then again, when you watch what this kid can do with that dune buggy I suppose it might not be that crazy after all. I’m pretty sure I couldn’t hop in and do this.

Seriously, I bet you can’t keep a straight face for the entire two minutes of this video of a kid laughing. Donncha, does your kid do this?

This toy is ridiculous. It’s like taking the Furby entirely to the next level.
I was at Sam’s Club (the warehouse equivalent of Wal-Mart) when I came across this miniature robotic pony, and I whipped out my cell phone and took the attached video.
I can’t believe these things even exist, and it just shows how close we are to having little robots walking around playing with our kids.

Hey, did you hear about the 5 year old kid who killed a 400 pound bear? Well, now you have… and oh yeah, he’s a descendant of Davy Crockett. Figures.
DEWITT, Ark. — A 5-year-old Arkansas County boy killed a black bear Sunday weighing more than 400 pounds.
Tre Merritt, a descendant of Davy Crockett, was hunting with his grandfather Mike Merritt when a black bear happened upon their stand.
“His 10th great-grandfather was Davy Crockett,” Mike Merritt said. “And Davy supposedly killed him a bear when he was three. And Tre is five and really killed a bear. I really doubt if Davy killed one when he was three.”

As we all prepare for the holiday season, I thought it would be appropriate to remember what it’s all about. So, here is a little preview of what we can all be looking forward to for the next month!

As a car lover, this is just painful to watch. But as a guy, it’s freakin hilarious!
Here is the setup… some guy literally just brought a brand new Ford Mustang home from the dealership. His family is out in the driveway looking at it and comparing it to his old classic Mustang sitting right beside the new one.
About this time, the 14 year old asks for the keys, and well… you’re going to have to just watch the video.

It sucks to be poor in Colombia.
So, here we have a small village that is so remote it takes a 2 hour hike through a jungle, and over a river to get to it. Or, you can grab a rusty pulley, strap it over a 1/4 mile long steel cable and fling yourself over the whole thing at 30 MPH for the one minute death-defying journey to the other side.
The government has stated that they won’t build a bridge because the community is too small, and too remote.

Thanks again to Jimbeau for supplying us all with this crazy unicycle video of one of his friends who is basically a member of a unicycle gang called the Unicycle Bastards.
Some filmmakers hung around with them for a couple of days and made a short video of their crazy death-defying actions, but for some reason never shared it, so here it is. A Web exclusive!
