We all hate having to sit through those annyoying 15 minutes of previews on DVD movies, its even worse when you have to make a little kid wait.  Here is a way to skip past all of those previews and go directly to the movie even when you the DVD maker has blocked the fast forward or skip button.  Get you pop corn becuase it’s movie time.

Step 1:
Put the DVD in your DVD player and press play

Step 2:
Once the previews start hit Stop twice on your remote and then hit play.

You should now be at the start of the movie.  This trick should work on most DVD players but your mileage may vary.  Enjoy

That translates to about 3.5 hours of overlapping TV/Internet time per month for the average American consumer, according to Nielsen’s data from the fourth quarter of 2009. Nearly 59 percent of consumers reported doing this at least once a month as well, up from 57.5 percent in 2008. That’s a lot of people spreading their attention across multiple screens, which is why so many shows are beginning to advertise live online polls, chats, and more during the course of broadcast. People aren’t just hitting up those websites after the show is over—they’re hitting them up as the show is going on.

Glad to see that I am not the only one.

This video was taken from the Solar Dynamics Observatory launch on February 11, 2010.  This awesome sonic boom happens around the 1:30 mark of the video.

A sun dog is a prismatic bright spot in the sky caused by sun shining through ice crystals. The Atlas V rocket exceeded the speed of sound in this layer of ice crystals, making the shock wave visible from the ground. The announcer can be heard in the video saying, “The vehicle is now supersonic.”

As we all know, Tiger Woods just got caught cheating on his wife and like all good celebrity gossip there are good jokes to follow:

  • Tiger Woods is so rich that he owns lots of expensive cars, now he has a hole in one.
  • What’s the difference between a car and a golf ball? Tiger can drive a ball 400 yards.
  • Tiger Woods wasn’t seriously injured in the crash, but he’s still below par.
  • What were Tiger Woods and his wife doing out at 2.30 in the morning? They went clubbing
  • Tiger Woods crashed into a fire hydrant and a tree. He couldn’t decide between a wood and an iron.
  • Why was Elin using a 7 iron. She was working on a bad lie.
  • I heard Tiger is trying to blame his crash on Cadillac, as he was driving an Escalade. Typical golfer, he drives into a tree and blames the Caddy.
  • If you make it out of your own driveway safely this morning… you can say that you out drove Tiger Woods.
  • Elin Nordegren got hired today as a consultant. She’s teaching Phil Mickelson how to beat Tiger.
  • What does an arctic seal pup and Tiger Woods have in common..? They have both been beaten with a club by a Norwegian
  • Apparently the police asked Tiger’s wife how many times she hit him. She said ” I don’t know exactly but put me down for a 5.”

There is also a Flash game where you try to out run Elin in your Escalade while she tries to beat you down:

And now a family photo:photo

I cant image ever driving a $1 million car, let alone wrecking one.  But that is what this millionaire did in Texas last week.  He is has blamed swerving to miss a pelecan for the cause of the accident, in anycase it makes laugh.  And in a world where everyone has a video camera you better believe it was caught on tape.
