Crappy sideways video Wednesday..

I keep forgetting that when I turn my camera sideways in video mode,the end result is less than sterling.
But!..The important thing to remember here,is that my buddy Nick and I will go to great lengths in order to bring you the latest in scientific whateveritis.
In this case,we decided to re-enact the classic,'Diet Coke and Mentos' experiment,which gave Albert Einstien his insight into special relativity,and eventually led to the developement of microwave popcorn.



..I think we need a better delivery system.

Subsequent to this major success,we've decided to fill a 50 gallon drum with Diet Coke,throw Copper,our shop dog,into it,and add a full pound of Mentos,(quite the refreshing mint,as a matter of little interest to just about everyone),just to see how high we can bubble him up!..Should be fun.

We all need to see the world in a different perspective. Can't wait for the Copper premiere.

So this is the mad scientist side of Sling... hey I alliterated, sort of. I know I'm going to get my nose slapped with a newspaper for that......

I don't know what I'm laughing about more...the "f*%$ing A", the image of the bubbling dog or your label...(wipes tears of joy from eyes)

A. was strolling by when I pulled this up. I hadn't made it through the first sentence when he said: It looks like they're going to blow something up. Cool!

I like me my share of experiments, too, you know, but there's some testosterone thingie that makes certain men go into High Arousal State at the idea - just the flippin' IDEA - of these kinds o' shenanigans.

The 50 gallon drum number will be much more exciting, I can tell. He can't wait.

On a personal note:
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!

On a professional note:
You can fix the sideways thingy in Windows Movie Maker. If'n you wanna.

On an ethical treatment of animals note:
Please do not traumatize the dog.

Oh fun experiment. ON your next one, the dog will not be hurt, right????

 
At 5:21 PM , Blogger Serena said...

LOL! You probably ought to keep your day job, but what a fun experiment.:)

Sling...if you were my kid...and Nick too...you'd be in trouble right now. Wasting a perfectly good soda and Mentos. Not to mention someone could have put their eye out, Nick has soda all over his shirt and whatever else I think of when I remember when my son and daughter did the same damn thing...did I sound like a mother? Do you feel like a kid?

What? Precious, or not right??

 
At 7:13 PM , Blogger Sling said...

rosie- Nick made me do it!..
He should be punished.

doralong- Well,I was thinkin' 'not right'.
It has a fundamental appeal to my ego.
But 'precious' works just fine. :)

Sling said...
sage- We have a volunteer!..
Step right up young lady.
We've never met before,right?

Yellerdawg- Oh,if only Nick and I could go down in history with the likes of Frick and Frack!...sweet.

doralong- lord he'p me,I love it when you call me that!

allan- I almost got him with that.
Did you see that brief moment of compliance?..AHAHAHA!

Rainey- You're laughing mostly at the bubble up hound dog..That shit's funny right there! ;)

Booda babe-Tell A to forget everything they tell ya!..
He's encouraged to try this at home.

danny- I drink cheap brown liquor.
The dog's breath ain't so bad.

Hat- For some ungodlt reqason,known only to bill gates,windows movie maker refuses to upload my camera's videos.
They are in .MOV format,so I really don't understand why this is?
I've tried my Photoshop,and Corel as well,but no luck.
All these programs are happy to deal with still photos however.

lostinco- In truth,I would never think of subjecting a dog to any such kind of nonsense..
Too heavy.
I'm thinkin' maybe a cat.

Serena Joy-If Einstein had kept his day job,we'd all be enjoying our Swiss patented,'Cheese on a stick' even today!

Billy P.- ratz!,,I wish I'd thought of that..

middle child- Ha!..Funny that it should be good for cleaning toilets,because diet anything tastes like crap.

Hat-tasia -I've puzzled over the fact that Windows Movie Maker wouldn't upload a freakin' .MOV file fer chrissake.
Anywhiz,thanks for the link kid.It looks like just the thing I've needed. :)
