What do you get when you have 2 drummers sitting back to back with keyboards at their side? You get one of the most amazing renditions of “Billie Jean”. One drummer is sitting at his kit while the other is right behind him (back to back) at his kit. On both sides are keyboards. During [...]

When It's Okay for a Man to Cry; and When It's Not

Frank Pain — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 15:05:13 +0000

Part of my daily routine is to check all the latest scores and standings. This year, it seems that has become a very depressing thing. I'm one of the biggest Yankees fans on the planet and we're not doing that great this year. We're third in our division and nowhere close to the caliber of what we expect out of the New York Yankees.

So, as I listen to all of the chuckles of the Yankees haters out there, I think back to the last time they won it all. I was at a local bar and the final out was made and we just won our 27th title (the most in all pro sports). I remember my buddy Lee and I in tears as we planned to buy our next round of championship t-shirts.

Then it dawned on me, yeah, we really were crying tears of joy for our favorite team and no one batted an eye at us. It was expected. It was accepted.

But, there are certain times a man can cry without ridicule and times he can't.

Hilarious British Commentary of a Yankees and Red Sox Game

Frank Pain — Wed, 19 Jun 2013 00:34:44 +0000

Simply put, The Exploding Heads are a group of comedians who make hilarious videos. In their own words "there's some sick-ass stuff going on".

One of their recent videos features highlights of a New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox game, but with a twist. The twist is Anthony Richardson, one third of The Exploding Heads, overdubbing his bad British commentary.

If you hate baseball, this will make you love it. If you love baseball, this just may make you pee your pants in laughter.

What do you do when you run out of things to do in your suburban neighborhood? You ask a friend to drive a speeding car at you while you attempt to jump the car. Well, that was the plan for this one kid but apparently he didn't take into account the actual speed of said car.

Russian Driver Avoids Traffic by Driving With Two Wheels on Highway Median

Frank Pain — Tue, 18 Jun 2013 23:00:00 +0000

First it was a slew of cute pet videos that took the interweb by storm. Now it seems the Russians are trying to steal their thunder by doing some of the craziest stuff possible...on camera.

Apparently there are a ton of Russian vehicles equipped with dashboard cameras because there are a ton of viral videos shot from the cars point of view.

This time around it appears there's a driver who's too impatient to wait in traffic with everyone else, so he/she decides to drive down the middle...with two tires on the cement median.

Signs You're a Pothead – The Morning After Top 10

Frank Pain — Thu, 13 Jun 2013 19:41:04 +0000

It seems every time I log on to Facebook there's a 'friend' showing off their weed or new bong. It frustrates me so much because I can't reach through the screen to shake those people back into reality. Posting 'pot' pictures online, where everyone can see them, is the dumbest thing I've ever witnessed. So, that brings us to today's top 10...Signs You're a Pothead.

The Men's Room Talk About the Lies Parents Tell Kids

Frank Pain — Thu, 13 Jun 2013 19:01:50 +0000

Growing up, we’ve all heard these little white lies that parents tell. Whether they do it to ‘torture’ us or to teach us a lesson, all parents tell these lies that somehow traumatize kids. For example: If you swallow your gum, you’ll fart bubbles If you pee in the pool, the water will turn red [...]

10 Year-Old Sebastien De La Cruz Sings National Anthem at Game 3 of NBA Finals and is Absolutely Amazing

Frank Pain — Wed, 12 Jun 2013 15:18:42 +0000

America's Got Talent contestant and San Antonio native, Sebastian De La Cruz, wowed the crowd last night when he sang the National Anthem before Game 3 of the NBA Finals between the Miami Heat and San Antonio Spurs.

What came after that was an internet firestorm of hatred and racism that was aimed at this amazing little 10 year-old boy.

Instead of focusing on the ignorance and hatred, I think it's best we focus on the grace and beauty in which our National Anthem was delivered.

Austin Rockers, The Sword, Bring Their Haunting, Hypnotic, Heavy Rock to Abilene July 27th

Frank Pain — Tue, 11 Jun 2013 22:36:34 +0000

Wrapping poetic and poignant imagery in a haze of crushing riffs and ethereal melodies, the Austin, TX quartet, The Sword, delivers haunting, hypnotic, and heavy rock. Some call The Sword stoner metal or doom metal...I call em amazing.

If you're a fan of bands like Black Sabbath, then this is a show you can't miss. The Sword draws much of their influence from bands like Sabbath. But, you can't pigeonhole them into one type of sound. What you'll get from The Sword is an experience...one you'll never forget.

This show will truly be an epic one for Abilene.

Fun Things to Do With That Phone Book You'll Never Use

Frank Pain — Mon, 10 Jun 2013 16:18:46 +0000

It never fails, whether at home or work (or both), phone books mysteriously show up. One thing we know about phone books is that they must travel in packs, because I typically get 8-10 a year that I'll never, ever use.

Thanks to the internet, we no longer have a need for phone books. I'm still not sure why people insist on murdering trees just so millions of phone books can go unopened each year.

So these poor trees don't die in vain, I have come up with a list of ways you can use your phone book.
