The One Minute List Blog

As a blogger myself I appreciate the hard work that goes into creating and maintaining a blog.  So when I find one that is interesting I like to read and share it with the world. 

While searching for content for my post today I found the blog entitled One Minute List.  This blog has lists on it of interesting items.  In the current post dated May 31 there is a list of some interesting things.  Like Russia opening a Military Disney Land where guests can fire military grade weapons and use simulators, weird.  And how about this one.  Metallica became the first band to perform on all 7 continents after a concert at Carlini station in Antarctica in 2013. 

Want to read more?  http://oneminlist.com and read on.  BTW I probably will be using this site a resource for future posts.

Enjoy and come back for more Mixed Nuts

Whoopee Cushion

 Ah yes the creme de la creme of pranks, the setting up and deploying of the whoopee cushion. Thankfully I have never fallen prey to the prank. Frankly speaking it is silly and somewhat childish to pull the prank, then again I guess that is it's charm. The idea that one could make someone appear to fart out loud in a way as to cause a red face to appear I guess could be funny. 

Interestingly the modern whoopee cushion has it's roots here in Canada, in Toronto to be exact.  The Toronto Star tells of the historical background to the famed cushion in an article dated May 8, 2008.

Wikipedia also has an article about the history of the whoopie cushion.  Another interesting fact about the cushion is that there is a record for the biggest one made.  The largest according to Guinness World Records is 19ft or 6.035M in diameter.  Wow wonder what that would sound like.

Enjoy the read and let me know if you have been the victim or the prankster behind the cushion of fartdom.
