Boomer! Ella! Watch Carefully!

I've gotta teach our dogs, Boomer and Ella to do this! Meet Bandit, and Australian cattle dog who's owner, Josh Ace has taught him to fetch his beer! When ordered, Bandit runs to the fridge, opens the door, and grabs a beer before returning to Josh. The dog only fetches a beer when Josh says: "I'm parched."

The Joys Of Being Doped Up By The Dentist!

I just love this video! This woman just came out of anesthesia after getting her wisdom teeth pulled, and she's crying because she doesn't look like Nicki Minaj! I'm not sure why she thought she was going to look like her to begin with, but whatever. Even funnier, she's upset because she wants to be friends with Ellen Degeneres! I love the line, "Ellen Degeneres...she's so generous."

Never Mess With Bees!

OK, at first I didn't want to laugh at this video because I have a fear of bees. It's true! For some people it's spiders, or snakes or Smurfs, but I have an irrational fear of bees. But I couldn't help but laugh at this guy, especially since his wife, who was shooting the video, was laughing at him just as much! He was trying knock down a wasp's nest with a long stuck, not a very bright idea to begin with. And the wasp reacted like wasps usually do, he got totally ticked at the guy and flew up the back of his shirt! Take a look at the video:

The best part was the guy trying to swat him with the stick like some ball player! I never like to see anyone get hurt, of course. But it's hilarious how a little bee can turn a grown man into a screaming little girl!

What!?! I Can't Meet George Washington!?!

Here's little Ava. Like many of us, she has a favorite President, and it's George Washington. The problem is she just found out she can't meet him, and she is not happy!

Miranda Lambert's Famous Randarita!

With the weekend upon us, you may be looking for that special cocktail to serve up to friends, or just mix up for yourself. How about Miranda Lambert's famous Randarita! Here's a video of the lady herself showing you just how to whip one up! Enjoy!

Dress 'Em Up For Halloween...And We don't Mean The Kids!

Americans spend $350 million every year on dressing their pets up for Halloween, according to the National Retail Federation. Whether it’s a cocker spaniel dressed as Batman or a cat in a tuxedo, everybody can't help but have a few laughs -- at the poor pet's expense. Some of the big sellers this year, says Costumesupercenter.com, is the Minion Pet Costume from Despicable Me 2 along with such tried-and-true favorites like Captain America, Darth Vader and Wonder Woman. Of course, there's nothing like forcing Fido to wear a hot dog or taco outfit either. Here's the NRF's top ten pet costumes for 2014:

1. Pumpkin. 2. Hot Dog. 3. Devil. 4. Bumble Bee. 5. Cat. 6. Batman Character. 7. Superman. 8. Witch. 9. (T) Ghost. 9. (T) Pirate. 10. Star Wars Character.

So do you dress your pet up for Halloween? If you do we'd love to see a pic of your pooch or cat!

Ever Heard Of A Fainting Goat? Well, Here Ya Go!

OK I've heard of these: Fainting Goats. It's true! I ran across this video this morning and had to share it with you. Watch the little guy just keel right over!

OK here's the scoop: A myotonic goat, otherwise known as the fainting goat, is a domestic goat whose muscles freeze for roughly 10 seconds when the goat feels panic. Though painless, this generally results in the animal's collapsing on its side. The characteristic is caused by a hereditary genetic disorder called myotonia congenita. When startled, younger goats will stiffen and fall over. Older goats learn to spread their legs or lean against something when startled, and often they continue to run about in an awkward, stiff-legged shuffle. Of course, if you teach your dog to "play dead", I suppose it's the same thing!

I'll Never Get Married!

Meet Dean. Dean is 6 years old and worried that he'll never get married. He thinks he'll have to wait "A thousand million years", or until he's 80. Poor kid! The best part is where his dad (who's taping this) says, "It's not that much fun"! Great video!

This Story Will Bring A Tear To Your Eye Guaranteed!

27-year-old Gina Giaffoglione of McClelland, Iowa was in a car crash six years ago, and ended up paralyzed from the waist down. But after her boyfriend proposed to her in 2012, she decided she wanted to WALK down the aisle with her dad, Gary. Of course, that doesn't mean she expected to RECOVER from her injury. But after a year-and-a-half of physical therapy to build up her core muscles, she was able to do it with braces on her legs, a crutch in one hand, and her dad holding onto her other arm . . . all while she was in a wedding dress with a full train. Only her close friends and family knew she was planning it, so most of her wedding guests had no idea until it HAPPENED.


According to Gina, she did it for her dad, because she's his only daughter. And she wanted him to be able to WALK her down the aisle, not push her in a wheelchair. And by the way, after she made it down the aisle, she also STOOD the entire time she and her husband John exchanged vows. What an awesome story, huh? Make sure you share it with someone who may need a little inspiratioin their life!

Amazing Train Wreck Video!

A couple was traveling through Louisiana when they came upon a tractor trailer stalled on a set of train tracks. I'll leave it at that because you have to watch the video to see what happened next!

A Little Too Real?

Ok, I had to check and see if this was for real when I heard about it. The Playmobile Company has put out a new toy set for kids called "Security Checkpoint". It's a kids version of a TSA screening checkpoint at an airport, complete with baggage x-ray machine walk-through metal detector and an agent with a body wand!

Is it just me or is this just a bit of an add scenario for kids to play with? What do you think? Can't you just hear your precious little one's hollering, "Hit the ground, dirtbag!" Or maybe, "Hey man, don't touch my junk!"

Check Out "The Poop Song"....I Kid You Not!

Every little girl loves Disney's "Frozen", right? And they know every single word to the big hit from the movie, "Let It Go". Well, so does the girl in this video that has gone viral, but she has come up with a parody of the tune she calls...are your ready for this? The Poop Song! Now wouldn't you be proud of your child if she came up wit this? LOL!

Help! Help!

When I first saw this video today I thought for sure it was a hoax: A pug's owner terrorized him with a squeaky toy and iPad. The dog, sounding like a human, screamed for help! The word "Help!" is so clear I was sure it was dubbed, but maybe not! Give it a listen and tell me what you think! Do you have a pet that makes human sounding noises?
