Hah... Dipsy never fooled me...
"Genuine self-esteem, however, consists not of causeless feelings, but of certain knowledge about yourself.
It rests on the conviction that you — by your choices, effort and actions — have made yourself into the
kind of person able to deal with reality. It is the conviction — based on the evidence of your own volitional
functioning — that you are fundamentally able to succeed in life and, therefore, are deserving of that success."

My first (well, second) Youtube video.
Finnish humor from 1980s subtitled in English. I suggest watching at least the first half of it.

It was mildly funny, but I think he needs to learn how to laugh from this guy (watch from 1:40 to 8:00). It's awesome when you watch a failure of a comedy club host being easily outperformed just by a random old man's laugh. :)
2 days ago, the police released a video of a Polish immigrant who was fatally shot twice with a Taser at Vancouver International Airport. He spoke no english, and had a nervous breakdown after waiting 8 hours in the airport for his mother, who was not allowed to go to the baggage claim area where he was. Someone called the police, and when they came, a bystander explained that the man spoke only Russian, not English. The police spoke with him in English, then tased him after 20 seconds. He died from cardiac arrest shortly after being tased.

Some real interesting information regarding how to (ab)use Google's search engine. This guy also has other cool, interesting videos that you might care to check out.
That was great, but once again when one of these awesome events takes place... KIRBY IS ALWAYS LEFT OUT!!!!!
I liked it, but I hated it so much since Kirby was left out, AGAIN! If this was in Japan, Kirby would have been in it. Kirby is WAY more popular in Japan. Kirby Squeak Squad had sold 1,000,000 copies in Japan by a certain time, while by the same time, it had only sold one fifth of that in the states. I don't know about us in Canada though. Just about every game player I've met here in BC likes Kirby, so I'm not sure what it is about Kirby out here than Ontario. Nobody likes Kirby in Ontario. (I used to live there)
Kirby's sales probably also got bashed over seas due to the terrible dubbing of the Kirby anime. It's an entirely different show in the subbed version.
Kirby would make an awesome Macy's parade balloon. Too bad it will never happen.
