Moving To Tumblr
Hey loyal visitors and other people who show up here from time to time. It turns out that when I said 2 weeks I really meant 2 months afk. Whoops!
Anyway, to make my life easier and facilitate more posting I'm moving the distillery over to Tumblr. It's a lot easier to post my random finds up there, so hopefully this leads to more stuff going up!
Cheers,
Brendon

Nicest Man On The Planet?

Article,

Love
This nice elderly Australian man has directly saved over 160 people's lives over the past 50 years. How? His house overlooks one of the more common suicide jumps in the country, so each day he keeps a lookout for lone people hesitating near the edge. If he sees one, Don goes out, chats with them and then invites them inside for tea. This is a real hero, read up.

Canadian Evel Knievel
The US doesn't have a monopoly on hicks, as you'll witness in a second. They're not the classiest of folk, but I'll be damned if they don't make amusing youtube videos!

Cheap Flights
If you've ever gone searching for cheap airfare online, this lovely Irish ballad ought to ring true. Also their accents are awesome, and double the fun.

The side effects are a small price to pay for the huge savings.

I have to warn you, this is really really cute. And then it scars you for life. Don't be a little bitch though and ride it all the way to the bitter end.

Canadian Redneck Daredevil
The Southern US gets a lot of shit for its country folk, but you can find rednecks all over the world. I don't know what it is about being landlocked that seems to do this to people, but behold central Canada's contribution to the world.

I like how this video is simultaneously amusing and educational, without bashing you over the head with its green message. This is the way to get people's attention!

Baby Red Pandas In The Snow
This may be the most obnoxiously cute thing I've ever seen. This could melt Sauron's dark heart.

Japan Earthquake: Aftermath
All eyes have been turned to Japan since the 9.0 earthquake hit. These series of photographs are a stunning illustration of the damage that's been inflicted on the country and the strength of its people. I'll warn you now that some of these are a bit graphic.

I don't know if this is a prestigious title, but you've gotta give the guy credit... His IMDb page is legendary. He's in 4-5 productions a year!

Frozen Crossing Frozen Battle Scene
Man... I'm blown away by what "amateur" film makers can pull off now days. They didn't just toss this off without planning, but damn its inspiring that they did it for basically free. Now where is my copy of After Effects...
