How many remotes do you have?

May 20th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Gadgets, Videos, YouTube, accessories

I’m a BzzAgent, and as part of the BzzAgent program, I take part in word-of-mouth campaigns about products they send me to try and give my honest opinion on. The most recent one that I’ve enjoyed a lot is the Logitech Harmony One universal remote control. I have 3 remotes in the living room, not to mention two PS3 controllers. Now that the Logitech Harmony One can control all my devices (even my ghetto Durabrand Wal-mart audio receiver I got hand-me-down), I only have one, and it’s very neat.

See what other people have tried to do to get all of their devices in sync (this video is hilarious):

What if your car kept doing this?

May 15th, 2008 | No Comments | Posted in Automotive, Entertainment, Lifestyle, Videos

Tvads_aveo_300x206aWouldn’t it be awful if your car kept doing this? I know it’d be pretty cool the first couple of times, but after that, it’d probably just be plain annoying. I like how this resembles the internet video from a while back where the cars would transform, but it was an intended function of the car, like a security system or something? I don’t quite remember. It’s a clever ad for Chevrolet Europe, nonetheless.

Renuzit TriScents Home Makeover Semi-Finalists

In my bathroom at home, I have the cheaply priced 97-cent screw-top Renuzit air freshener, and I must say, they’re a lot more effective than candles or spraying, and they don’t overwhelm.

Renuzit is having a contest where participants are instructed to upload a video explaining why they feel like they deserve a Home Makeover in the contest titled “Transform Your Home with Tanya Meme.” Tanya is the star of A & E Emmy-nominated show “Sell This House!”

The girl in the screenshot above sings a hilarious song about how her Mom worked really hard to earn money to give to her for her education so she could earn her degree, and now with no money they can’t afford to fix up the kitchen, so she needs a home makeover.

I felt bad for the girl, but I enjoyed her out-of-tune singing and the hokeyness of her video. Go visit the contest page and find her in the semi-finalist gallery and vote for her to win! What’s great is you can vote every single day, once a day, until June 7th. If most of you do this, she’s almost sure to win.


The winner with the most votes will receive a $20,000 makeover with Tanya Memme - so vote early and often. I’m tempted to enter, but I don’t actually own my home - I’m a renter. Still, it’d be neat to have some lady come in and do $20k worth of fix-ups to a place I did own.

Old School BK (British Knights) Commercials

Jonesing for your fix of old school this week? You’ll remember where I posted earlier about BK coming out with a new line of shoes and bringing back revamps of the old styles. Here’s some commercials from back in the day, which was a Wednesday according to comedian Dane Cook:

Chad Vader: Day Shift Manager

April 23rd, 2008 | 2 Comments | Posted in Entertainment, Lifestyle, Videos, YouTube

I totally thought I’d written about this before, but I couldn’t find one single post on this blog about Chad Vader, the Day Shift manager. If you like shows like “The Office” or “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia,” you’ll love this classic YouTube series whose basic premise is - what if Darth Vader’s cousin worked at a grocery store instead of commanding a Death Star?
