Delayed Demotivators

The past two Saturdays I've been away from my laptop and wasn't able to post my Demotivators. I was away again this past Saturday but have the day off today, so here's the latest batch. I hope you enjoy them and I always appreciate feedback.

Well, once again I have messed up the photo sequence--this was supposed to be the sign out shot, saying we were on our way to the 3D IMAX show of John Carter (it was AWESOME! gotta see it). Right after we took this photo and headed off to the cars we ran into some Iowa wrestlers who'd not made the finals--national championship was that day and only 3 Iowa guys had qualified; they said it looked like Penn State was going to win the tournament this year. When Mom mentioned she worked with a Banach they all about kissed the ground she was standing on.

Took this one just as we survived the trip to the top of the arch--Steve was getting pumped for the IMAX show I think; either that or practicing for his Iron Maiden concert in August.

A shot of the Mississippi and one of the first bridges spanning it, built in early 19th century, and a modern horse cart. Steve was the only one of us who remembered to wear green so we decided to stay even closer to him than usual (it was St Patrick's Day; yes, I am ashamed I didn't remember).

 This is a shot from the little observation place at the top of the arch--fortunately the mist burned off by the time we got to the top so we watched the St Patrick's Day runners finishing. The ride up was an experience--5 adults crammed into a little pod with a 4-foot high door, and one of our passengers was a little claustrophobic (not the optimal pod companion).

When we got to the arch it was misted over by fog off the river and it was an awesome sight to see it just sort of disappear into the mist. It was a great day we got to spend with Steve before his birthday on Sunday--we all had to head home Saturday, but we had a great time Friday sharing Steve's birthday cake and some NCAA tournament games.  Happy Birthday this week to Steve and Dave--got to call Dave, but we'll have to work out a late way to see him for his birthday along with Wendy and (now crawling!) Oakley.

Ya'll be excellent to each other.

Love, Mom and Dad

Pat and Nancy,  a couple videos of C opening up your b-day gifts.  WE loved the gifts, thank you so much.  The sea creatures puzzle we already have, it's a favorite with the girls, but some of the pieces are missing so they are pumped for the new one!  Thanks for your thoughtfulness!  I have more video and pics at http://benandmarindashaha.blogspot.com

Emotivatordays

Hello all, I don't have a great introduction today so I'll just jump right into this week's installment of Demotivating comedy goodness. Enjoy.

I love the Monkey's face in that one.

If this isn't in the top ten greatest Demotivators of all-time, then you and I have very different tastes in that area.

SROTAVITOMED

First off I have to say that I'm disappointed nobody chose to share in the epic awesomeness that was my previous blog post...but I guess that's because you're all just jealous of where I'm going to be on the 1st of August. Here's that latest batch of Demotivators, I hope you enjoy them and I always love to read feedback.

That's what you get for parking in a no-parking zone.

I don't know what that kid did, but I'd be willing to bet he never even thinks about doing it again.

Wouldn't the above scene have been awesome in any of the Indy movies?

August 1st Will Be Epic

I just wanted to share the greatest news since...well, maybe ever. On August 1st, someone we all know will be in the pit of a concert put on by the greatest band in the world today. That's right, I just bought my ticket for freaking IRON MAIDEN \m/ The show's August 1st in SLC and I'm going to be in the freaking pit for it. After August 1st I will be comparing every event in my life to seeing that show, needless to say I am freaking pumped!!!

Building You Up By Letting You Down

You know the drill, here's the weekly Demotivator fix. I always love to read comments and/or feedback, so don't be shy.

I apologize for the obscenity, but that one's a classic.

This one's mainly for Ben and Mom.

I wonder what the figure for that Care Bear would look like and if Joe would let Lucy play with it.

2 Good Vids

Hey all, I just thought I'd post a couple of links to some quality videos I've found that I thought you'd enjoy.

This first one is mainly for Ben due to his first born's affinity for the song:

This next one should be enjoyed by all the Shahas:

Bon apetite.

Demotivating Your Trash Once a Week

Hello all, let me first say happy belated birthday to Mom...here's hoping for many happy returns. Here's the latest batch of Demotivators, just please remember that I love feedback.

How much do you wanna bet that the above kid is going to need therapy in the near future?

Doesn't the one above look like a rejected Three Stooges short?

I don't know for sure, but I'm sure the one above was taken somewhere in California.

Whoever wrote the caption for this one makes a very interesting and valid point.

Sweet video

Hey guys. I know I'm a dork. But you really should check out this video. It's pretty interesting. This is the kind of thing I think I'd like to do. Not draw on white boards... but preventive medicine.
