ToTG- Home of the Whopper

"Whopper" - as in stretching the truth. I do enjoy a good burger,though and wish we still had a Burger King franchise here in town.  I much preferred a Burger King burger to those at McDonalds. 

You Are Burger King

You are edgy, irreverent, and a risk taker.  You enjoy anything that's bold and brash. You say whatever is on your mind, and you occasionally offend people... but mostly you just entertain them. You are very unique, and you don't like following rules. You like to have things done your way. And just because you do things your way, it doesn't mean you're stubborn. You're the first person to experiment and mix things up a bit.

I don't know what happened to it, but I used to have a plaque for my kitchen that read: "This is NOT Burger King - you get it my way, or you don't get the S.O.B."

Falling Dominoes

There's not a lot to Falling Dominoes and it doesn't waste much time, either. That's probably a good thing, since it's really just a commercial for Coke^TM.

It doesn't take much to start it off, either. Just move your cursor and a hand appears, then move it over to the first domino and nudge it. That's all there is to it.

It IS visually entertaining and there's something satisfying about watching the chain reaction of the cyber-dominoes. A lot of fun and you don't have to spend hours setting up the dominoes...or putting them back in the box, for that matter.

Song of the Seas - Vangelis

Building Blaster

Note: A "bump" from August '09. I found this after checking something earlier and spent an hour playing the game. I also d/l the game to play on my computer, loads of fun!

A fun game from 2DPlay.com.

Drag explosives to desired area, press the + (plus) or - (minus) buttons to set timer, then press "detonate".

Combine explosives for more explosive power!

Here's a screenshot of one of my failures:

As you can see, I left most of it standing, but I got better after I got the knack of where to place the charges and how to stagger the time to make parts fall into others in order to get them to hit the ground.

Also available to put on your website, but you can also download the files to be used on your own computer.

Optional: Air Bag

The first consumer car to offer an air bag as an option was the 1974 Oldsmobile Tornado Brougham.

I used to run around with a guy who had a later model Tornado with air bags, the first I had ever seen.  There had been some news stories of them accidentally going off or people being hurt more by them in wrecks than from the wreck itself.  It was hard to relax while in the front seat, not only from worrying about the air bag, but that he was such a lousy driver that I was afraid I'd need the air bag.   I ran into him a few years back while taking some photos by the side of the highway; he stopped to see if I was having car problems and we started shooting the bull.  I decided I'd introduce myself and stuck out my hand and his mouth dropped open and told me who he was.  (*and I'm sure my mouth dropped open, too) He told me I had aged and that he never would've recognized me. (*and HE had gained at least 250lbs and I never would've recognized him)

His Tornado had one of those long, sloping rear windows and even though he tried to put it in the garage when a hail storm hit, it still was destroyed when he was caught out on the road during a storm that, oddly enough, contained a tornado.  (although I never heard the name of the car pronounced the same, but rather Tor-nah-do)

Note:  I'm not positive that's a Brougham, but it's the trivia fact that's important, not the graphic.  If you want to - in a polite manner - correct me, then please feel free to do so in the comments section.  If you want be rude and tell me I'm stupid, then feel free to email me at kissmybutt@gotohell.com
