cboe traders in the dark

Fun stuff as a power surge causes the lights on the floor of the CBOE to go off. Traders just kept trading for the most part - it would take alot more than no lights to get us out of here! I remember a time when a trader actually collapsed of a possible heart attack right in the pit, traders stepped over him to continue making trades!  

Patsy Kline would kick Lady Gagas ass in a barfight!

Seriously folks, - and I'm talking directly to the 51 massive hits I've had on my blog so far- what the F happened to artists who could actually sing a song well, on the spot, using NO electronic enhancements whatsoever?

Power line FAIL

A buddy of mine shot this video from his deck in wicker park, chicago. Good to see ComEd has their grid wired tight!

Dont try this at home!

Just so you know, placing a half stick of tnt inside an old mailbox and not getting far enough away is a bad idea. Nobody here was injured, but if you watch this video, you will see the mailbox launch rapidly to the right of the screen, landing alot farther away than the person who shot the video! (me) My lucky day! We immediately decided to just ignite the rest of the "fireworks" all by themselves, out in the field, much farther away. Enjoy!
