A Nice Day for a White Wedding

Our good friend at Catalyst:SF, Cory Treffiletti, is getting married this Saturday. To commemorate this glorious event, here's a funny little skit from MADtv and everyone's favorite, Stuart. Congratulations Cory and enjoy the honeymoon. See you when you get back.

Inspirational Video, Paul Potts

Anything is possible. check out this video, it's pretty cool, Simon Cowell's even in it (not that that is what makes it cool but hey...)

Congrats to Fresno State

Yesterday, Fresno State became the lowest seed to win a National Championship in any men's collegiate sport. They give schools in lower, non-major conferences across the country hope that the fairy tale story does exist and miracles do come true. They faced elimation five times on their way to the title, and seemed to scratch, claw, kick, bite, and do anything else they had to do in order to prevail. Hats off to the these kids who never ever quit or lost belief. Congats to the Underdogs, err, Bulldogs of Fresno State and their impressive National Championship.

Drinkers invite crocodile into Australian pub

Local regulars to an australian pub noticed a crocodile outside and picked it up and brought it inside for their regular drinking session.

The saltwater crocodile was only 24 inches long so it wasn't about ot eat anyone, but the men taped its snout nonetheless, took some photoes, and then put it in a box on the counter. It's guessed that the croc might have escaped from a farm that was a few miles away. Animal officials eventually came to the bar and took the croc back to the farm.

That would be so cool. They should have kept it as a pet....because that's totally realistic.

Maglev - America's Fastest Train, Future Transportation?

Thanks to a $45 million dollar infusion from a recent government bill signed by President Bush in June, a magnetic, levitating train called the Maglev could be your choice of transportation between Ontario and Las Vegas in 5-10 years. In an article on MSNBC, Jasmin Aline Persch discusses the potential, capabilities, and issues associated with the Maglev.

The train would essentially levitate using electro magnets and in doing so would avoid significant infrastructure maintenance overhead since there would be no contact between the rails and the train. The train would travel at a maximum of 310 mph, an average of 180 mph, and could compete with air travel. A ticket from Anaheim to Las Vegas can cost about $150, but, according to the American Magline Group, a ticket for the same route on a Maglev would cost about $55.

All in all it seems like a great idea. Who wouldn't want to float along at 180 mph and pay 1/3 the cost to get to Vegas? although, that thing better be locked down somehow....

Blogs for Men, Highrollers

Speaking of Rolling, High-Rolling that is, this blog called How to Roll is targeting guys with and without money. "How To Roll is a new blog for men about money. We deal in upgrades, bonuses, exclusivity and extraordinary experiences. We live in style, but we don't cover style -- no shopping, no grooming. Ever."

It could be called the Man Blog, but this blog is already called the Man blog. So the How to Roll blog will stay just that. It covers Cars, Travel, Food, Sports, Real Estate, Access, Sports, and bunch of other stuff. The autos section is at the top, most likely because it's the coolest.
