You may remember Travis Barker from Blink-182, +44, Box Car Racer and his show on MTV…..Meet the Barkers. I always thought that he was one of the best drummers of all time, so check out this video I found of him doing his thang!

Known by many as the "bullet train", the Shinkansen is a network of high-speed railway lines operated throughout Japan. Brittany and I had a chance to ride on the Shinkansen on a trip to Tokyo recently and really enjoyed it.

The bullet train is known mainly for reaching speeds of over 200 mph . Shinkansen literally translates into "new trunk line", referring to the tracks. If you are worried about safety, then you will be suprised to hear that there has never been a single fatality caused by a derailment or collision.

It is really amazing to experience first hand the raw speed of the Shinkansen. It is hard to describe, so below is a quick video showing the Shinkansen passing by our terminal.

Here is a video of a Japanese bagpipe player playing the song "Amazing Grace" at Ueno Park in Tokyo, Japan.

Individuals invented the internet yet now corporations claim they own own it – they claim it’s their private property. If that’s true then you don’t have free speech online. I disagree – I think free speech in "free speech zones" isn’t free: it’s *dependent* on having a public place to be heard – meaning public property like the internet.

You may all remember Bob Saget from his time playing a very conservative character Danny Tanner from the hit sitcom Full House or from his time spent being a host of America’s Funniest Home Videos. However, who can forget one of his more memorable lines from the stoner movie Half Baked,

"Have you ever sucked dick for coke? Now that’s addiction"

Nowadays you can find Bob Saget doing some pretty funny stand-up, on Broadway, the television show 1vs 100, and also starring in some movies. If you really want to, check him out at his website .

But I really wanted to share with everyone a clip of his stand-up. It is pretty funny, so get that Danny Tanner ideology out of your head and check out his HBO special,  That Ain’t Right.

I think this song has No. 1 hit written all over it!
