Internet fun for the weekend…
By far one of my favorite websites of late is called GraphJam.com. Essentially, the website attempts to break down the world and how we interact with it in a series of graphs. It is hilarious when you see how the world around us can be so easily summed up in a pie or bar chart. It all makes perfect sense.
Users are encouraged to submit their own which are reviewed and posted if found to be humorous. Included are some great examples…enjoy!

Facebook is down…Facebook is down…5:42 (cst)
This website is not a help desk for Facebook but it’s a civic duty to keep the American public aware of all possible natural disasters!!
Facebook is down! Facebook is down! Don’t toss your Iphone in the river or hurl it at your wife and complain that it doesn’t work worth a s***.
Here is the current update from the gods as Facebook:
A small subset of canvas applications are sporadically not being redirected to their callback URLs. We are addressing the issue and will update when this is resolved.
Of course, if you receive this RSS feed through your Facebook account, god help you man!
Hot new golfer to challenge Tiger’s limelight
It’s tough not to hear Tiger Woods’ name in the media of late with all this marital infedelity hoopla and now text messages coming out from his brood of women across the country.
Frankly, it’s getting old and let’s focus our attention on those athletes who don’t get all the attention.
Especially those golfers who shy away from the media hype, don’t get into trouble with the law, and keep a very low profile.
For instance, this fancy clad duffer is making an impression on the golf community. A relative unknown among the ranks of professional golf but slowy and steadily making the upward swing into the ranks of Tiger, Phil, and Padraig.
Athletic, fit, trim and I cannot wait to watch him….err wait…who is this guy?
This is JOHN DALY !!!!
For those not familiar, Daly has lost a total of 185 lbs after Lap Band surgery. He is exercising, not drinking as much, and is now forced to control is eating. You’ve got to be kidding me!!??!!??!!
Come on ABC…Lambert only kissed another guy, big deal
What’s wrong ABC? You can’t allow a very flamboyant and talented singer on GMA?
However, you have prime time shows that openly display homosexual men/women and sometimes they kiss!
Brothers and Sisters, Modern Family, Grey’s Anatomy, they all have gay characters who quite frequently engaged in PDA. Granted, these are actors but there is no difference.
Adam Lambert grabbed a guy and gave him a smack on the lips on live TV. Oh noooooooooo!
Pizza ranks high as a mobile commodity
One of the silliest applications on the Iphone and the Ipod touch (neither of which I have) but what a great idea.
The app has been in the Iphone world for about three months now and has generated over $1 million in sales!!
Pizza Hut previously had a WAP enabled application that allowed mobile ordering, so they’ve been in this space for a while now.
Who needs a fancy level or directions through the NYC subway when you’ve got instant access to breadsticks and greasy pizza?
Mmmm…
What is all the Chris Farley backlash for??
If you haven’t seen the commercial, it’s no doubt tough to see Chris Farley on the screen again.
Is the commercial tasteless? Come on….no.
Here is the article.
What I find alarming is that nobody is mentioning the fact that the families of these deceased celebrities are approving the use of the images.
Farley’s family agreed to the commercial being made and Direct TV cashes in on Farley’s image. So why is Direct TV the target of the backlash? I am sure Farley’s family is well compensated…quit whining. Oh and Direct TV has done this before with Heather O’Rourke from Poltergeist….again…the family’s consent.
Yeah, it’s funny, he was a funny guy and most of us remember him for his on screen antics. His death was tragic and it was avoidable, but many have died as a result of drugs and lifestyle. Elvis, John Belushi, both of which we see their image on TV quite often.
Elvis is the big one that comes to mind. If you remember a few years back I think Celine Dion did a duo with Elvis on an awards show using clever special effects…was there a backlash of his image being splattered across the country again? If there was, I didn’t hear about it.
I think Chris Farley is an easy target because he was loud, obnoxious, and his death was seen as a prophetic end to his life. How is that any different then Elvis or Belushi?
Farley’s been dead for almost 15 years…what is there some time requirement in which you can’t use someone’s image on TV?
Let’s remember Farley for the laughter and good times he brought us. I see him doing the fat guy little coat routine and I still laugh and say to myself “god that was funny”.
Maybe we should look at everything that is potentially tasteless…. Toddlers and Tiaras (pathetic but makes good TV), Jon and Kate (we all know this story) All the ”Housewives” series (shame what some of these women have become, but we still watch it)
There is so much garbage on TV, leave Farley’s 60 second commercial alone…it’s funny shit.
Why aren’t they just simply flying the plane?
The NWA pilots that overshot the airport recently claimed that they were engrossed with figuring out the new scheduling software being implemented by their new parent Delta Airlines.
The First Officer stated he was trying to help the Captain figure out how to use the new software program. Holy hell, please tell me a Captain with an extensive career as a pilot – managing a cockpit of a huge airliner – is not confused by the shiny pretty letters on his laptop.
I was confused last week when I saw the flight attendant bringing food in to the pilot on our 3 hour flight. I was thinking, there is room in the cockpit of this MD-80 for a lunch tray? Where will they put it? Why are they eating when they should be flying, its only 3 hours, can’t they eat an energy bar or something? Then I see that these two ying yangs are playing on their laptops – I was truly waiting to hear that they had been Facebook’ing. Which is worse, being drunk or being on Mafia Wars?
Is a truck actually an office?? Come on…
What a poor schmuck. Dude gets fined in his truck for lighting up.
According to the ordinance that was passed., yes the truck cabin is considered you office and if you light a cig, you’re busted. This is a weird one, but if you think about it…yeah…an independent truck driver does work out of his vehicle, so…..
I just found this story amusing.
Brett Favre turns 40 !
Well you had a good week indeed. Favre garnerd offensive honors as he completed 24-of-31 passes for 271 yards and three touchdowns to lead the Vikings to a 30-23 win over his former team, the Green Bay Packers, on Monday night. Favre, who became the first quarterback to defeat all 32 NFL teams, had a 104.7 passer rating to reach the 100.0 mark for the 96th time of his illustrious career, which ranks first in NFL annals.
Green Bay fans wish you a happy birthday Bert !…err Bart…er Brent…Brett !
Can’t find the remote control in Dallas, use a football!
We've got about this much room I promise !
Who needs to change the channel on this bug sucker when you’ve got NFL punters who can do it for free? Jerry, we love you anyway.

It’s private until the police are called a […]kansasview
