New York City vs. Hurricane Sandy
The entire front facade of this apartment building gets ripped away at 0:43.
Poor NYC!!! (click the photos to make it bigger)
A true hero
This cracks me up. Some kid is flying a model airplane around and this helicopter sees it go into the trees. They feel bad for the kid, so... well, just watch. haha Watch out, there's some bad language.

Who in the world is Bill Wong?
Think of him as the male equivalent of Carmen Sandiego... except with occupations and not locations. Compiled here is a list of his possible identities.
Disclaimer: Do not feel like you have to watch all of these videos. Because I sure as hell didn't.
Does he own a restaurant?
As an insurance agent:
Here, he calls himself a "digital surgeon," whatever the hell that is.
He's also an accomplished campaign strategist.
Did you know he's a Canadian-Chinese tailor too? Check out his website!
Ever wanted to learn Tai Chi? Bill can help! He's an instructor.
Here, he shares with us his scuba diving adventures!
And of course: Bill Wong Buffet, proudly serving the people of Orlando for over 20 years!
I love Tom Hanks.
The wig. HAHA And there's an awesome twist when it comes to the winner of the pageant. I did NOT see that one coming.
Tom Hanks and Conan O'Brien have an awesome friendship that goes back many years, which often leads to awesomely hilarious moments whenever Tom appears on Conan's show. This is just one of those moments.
At the memorial service for Michael Clark Duncan, Tom gave a hysterical and unforgettable eulogy.
Bet you didn't know Tom Hanks was a weatherman.
Tom Hanks is stuck in a dry cleaning bag.

Kitty cat in a McDonalds bag fortress
My favorite moment: at 0:30, and then his tail... LOL I want this cat.
Possible plan for Saturday October 27th, aka The Night We Are Hanging Out, Just the Two of Us, We Can Make It If We Try, What Am I Talking About?
We should probably leave on Saturday around 5:30/6pm-ish so that we have enough time to get to Peru, IN.
STOP #1: Streaper's Nightmare
71 West 7th Street
Peru, IN 46970
$12 for VIP
Open 7pm to 11pm
STOP #2: Indiana's Fields of FEAR Haunted Thrill Park
2200 Elmwood Ave. Suite B-3
Lafayette, IN 47904
$17 for three haunts (there's a $2 off coupon on the website!)
Open 7pm to 11:30pm (last ticket is sold at 11:15pm)
STOP #3: Sonic Drive-In Restaurant
150 South Creasy Lane
Lafayette, IN 47905
Large Pineapple Coke and a Large Cherry Lime Coke, with other foodage as well!
We could probably do the Huntington one first before we head to Peru but I think I'd rather spend $17 for 3 haunts in Lafayette (with Sonic afterward) than $20 for one in Huntington. What do you think? Either way, I'm excited!!!!!!

My favorite rides from our visit to Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure!
I don't care how old and in need of updates some of these rides were. They were fun!
I guess the rumor is that they took this one out and will be replacing it with either a Hogwarts Express ride that will take you into WWoHP or an expansion of WWoHP for a Gringott's Bank ride. That's the rumor anyway! Still, RIP Jaws ride. I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Still one of my favorites from Universal Studios, mostly because this movie is one of my all-time favorites. Of course, my love for Bill Paxton has a lot to do with it as well.
I'm sure my reaction to the moment at 4:35 was priceless to you, haha I legit thought there was a malfunction and we were about to be squished!
I don't care, I thought this was pretty cool!
This. Was. AWESOME.
WHAT THE HELL?! This looked AWESOME!!! And they replaced it with that dumb Simpsons ride?! I can't fathom why they thought that was a good idea.
You know I hate ET. But I have to admit: this was a fun ride, especially 4:00... and then it turns into something from my nightmares.
LOL FOREVER. This was stupid yet also entertaining.
I still want to hurl. I managed to find the moment where I wanted to yak: 2:05, and pretty much the rest of the ride from there. UGH.
LOLOLOLOL
And of course: THE BEST RIDE OF ALL-TIME EVER ANYWHERE, FOREVER AND EVER AMEN.
Gah, I got emotional watching that. I want to go back!

Haunted houses in Northern Indiana and elsewhere
Thinking ahead to your fall break, I thought I'd compile a list of some haunted houses in the general area of FW. Here's what I came up with!
Of course, there's the Haunted Cave in FW: http://www.hauntedcave.com
Price: $10 (If you show your college ID, you can get a free fast pass upgrade. You can also get $2 off if you bring 2 canned food items.)
The one in Warsaw: http://www.soultakersacres.com/
Price: $10 for two attractions
Huntington's haunted hotel: http://www.hauntedhuntington.com
Price: $12, $20 VIP
They can touch you at this haunted house in Peru, IN (a little over an hour away from Fort Wayne)! Sounds kinda awesome: http://www.streapersnightmare.com
Price: $12 for two attractions
This place kinda sounds fun. Lots to do! They have 2 haunted houses and a cornmaze, plus lots of other family friendly things that we don't really care much about. It's in Ohio, not quite 1.5 hours away from Fort Wayne: http://screamacres.com/
Price: $16 for haunted houses; $20 for haunted houses and cornmaze
Here's one in Kokomo, IN (about 1.5-ish hours from Fort Wayne): http://twistedhaunt.com
Price: $15 for two attractions ($25 for VIP)
This one is located in Jonesville, MI (about 1.5 hours from Fort Wayne): http://darksydeacres.com/
Price: $30 for five attractions ($40 for "RIP")
Here's one in Van Wert, OH: http://www.hiestandshauntedwoods.com/
Price: $8 ($1 off if you bring a canned food item)
About an hour and 45 minutes away in Findlay, OH, the proceeds of the haunted house go to charity. http://www.thefearfactory.net
Price: $10 for one attraction (?)
While it is the furthest away (nearly 2 hours in Maumee, OH), it also sounds rather interesting! Check out the Money Back Challenge: http://www.terrortown.net
Price: $25 for two attractions ($30 for VIP or $40 for the challenge)

An hour long interview with Queen JK Rowling
(it won't embed for some reason, so here's the direct link)
http://bcove.me/3bzagd4y
It's a wonderful interview! But if you don't want to sit and watch the full hour, at least fast-forward to around 11:50 in the video because she reads an excerpt from Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone and it is lovely. She even adopts a softer voice for Harry and, best of all, an Irish accent for Hagrid! Genius.
She is flawless.

I don't understand the appeal of Gangnam Style
But this is awesome. A definite upgrade, in my opinion, from the original!
Sunday, October 7, 2012
Wait... WHAT??
I didn't know it ended like this! And this isn't a joke: this is really how the show ended!
New York City: a recap
Remember this guy from Times Square?!
I still love this guy!!! I'm thrilled I know his name now!
I remember seeing Elmo but we definitely didn't see Elmo do this.
WORTH. THE. WAIT.
We definitely used this subway station but I don't recall having this issue. Still quite hilarious!
NOOOOOOO, Shaggy Bob! What did you DO?!!
BINGO!
WOAH! WOAH! WOAH! WOAH!
