Are we having fun yet?

Bubble Wrap
Getting packages is fun. Popping the wrap they come in, is orgasmic. It’s like an air-filled zit that sheiks when you squeeze. A champaign bottle with nothing but cork. A speed-bump for your fingers, that never wins. Here have a pop on us.
Click “Manic Mode” for the multi-pop, machine-gun effect.

Make Your Own Motivational Poster
You know those silly posters your boss paid way too much for? You know the ones, they say things like “There’s no u in failure” and have a pictures of Bald Eagles feeding their young. Time to make your own.
Now all you need is a printer and frame and you’re ready to leave your mark on corporate America.

The AirKick
Ever had that dream where you’re catapulted 26 feet in the air into a swimming pool or foam pit? Er, you will now. From the same people that brought you David Hasslehoff pop singer and shizer porn (the Germans) comes The AirKick, possibly the greatest pool toy ever invented.
Organizer Jochen Schweizer explains, “It propels participants through the air in a pre-calculated parabolic trajectory using a special combination of air pressure and water recoil technology.” Not sure what any of that means, but I’m pretty sure the third time I read it I got moist down below.

Yogesh’s Daily Doggle 23
Have you got bored answering your teacher’s questions? Then just for a change, try to answer the Devil Questions to figure out how much your soul is worth! Its fun to answer his queries and earn soul dollars. Isn’t that fun? Play and have fun, you are going to get pleasure playing this game but hmm…. still be alert….

This doggle bought to you by Yogesh, my trusted (even though I’ve never met him in person) personal assistant / sidekick I’ve outsourced my blogging to though a company called Tasks Everyday. I feel like there’s more going on in this post than I understand. I’m thinking of setting up a phone interview with Yogesh to answer, well, any and all questions. I’d know what I’d like to ask, but is there anything you’d like to know?
Photo Laser Fun
Last weekend I headed down to Ashville, NC to spend a little time with the fam. While I was there I picked up these things call Laser Finger Beams for my nephew. They’re just little lights you wear on your hands, but I figured 5-year-old Oscar would like them.
Turns out he’s not the only one. Remember Shoot Booth, that fun photo-booth that lets you write with light? You can do the same thing with just about any movable light-source and a simple point-and-shoot camera.
Here’s how:
Step 1. Set your camera to “shutter-lag.” It’s sounds advanced, but it’s not. Depending on the model, the setting either looks like a flash with a little “SL” after, or sometimes it’s an icon of guy and a half moon. What it’s meant to do is expose the foreground with the flash, then leave the shutter open to get the background. Perfect for a portrait in front of a twinkling city lights at night.
Step 2. Have someone take a picture of you, holding your light source (in this case, my finger lasers).
Step 3. As soon as the flash goes off, start move the light. You’ll apeare frozen in the frame, but the bright light you’re holding can still draw in the air.
Fun, right?
Make Your Own Flash Games
It’s no secret that we here at the doggle love a good game. And we like making things. So when we found PlayCrafter, we were as happy as a pig in shit. A shit pig who’d just found a simple drag and drop way of making your own flash games. Everything is customizable. Pick a template, upload a background, arrange the pieces, you get the idea. When you’re done you can embed it anywhere you like. It’s free and easy.
Got a minute to spare? Wander over there and make a game. A Zoomdoggle game. Then email it to games at zoomdoggle dot com. We’ve already promised out nearly our whole budget this month, but if you come up with something worth posting, we’ll come up with a suitable way of saying thanks.

Naked T-shirt
Just one question:
Good t-shirt, or greatest t-shirt?
Ok, one more question actually. Where can I get one?
Apparently, these are all the rage in Japan. In fact, we’ve been emailed these pictures by no less than three people. So far though, not one explanation on where we can get one.

Fun Fact
Everyone’s favorite weatherman, Williard Scott not only invented the character Ronald McDonald, he was the first man to play him on TV.
Inflatable Military Hardware
Quick, what’s the only thing funner than owning a piece of military hardware? That’s right, giant, fake, inflatable, military hardware.
These giant, glorified Russian pool toys, and others like them, are up for grabs. Originally used for faking out the enemy, think of all the fun you can have with them now. Inflate the truck in a hallway for the perfect prank. Aim the tank at your neighbor and, well, so long as they’re not packing thumb-tacks you should be good. You get the idea. Apparently prices are negotiable, but you’ll probably need to be bilingual before the bidding can begin.

Life's Simple Pleasures:
Pick up someone else's camera.
Let your face got completely slack.
Shake hard.
Flash.
Wait for it to be found.
Smile.
The next time someone picks you up in their car - say a friend or family member - climb in the back, right-hand seat, leaving the front passenger seat empty. With a straight face, tell 'em where to. It's a little game I call "Chauffeur." Fun.
Write the letters "B" and "R" on a one-dollar bill. Tuck your boner anywhere you please. Pull it out when least expected for maximum effect.
For this one, you need to be in the back of a car.
And you can't be the only one there.
first, let your body go limp (it helps to imagine you've actually got no bones).
Next, undo you're seatbelt.
Now play Jello.
The fun starts midway through the first turn one.
On a hot day, few things beat "stinky ice cream":
While eating with a friend, ask if their's smells funny too.
When they go in for a whiff, give the old elbow a little bump.
Not too hard, just enough to powder their nose.
Run up an escalator.
Don't be scared.
Getting to the top is all the joy of winning a marathon, without any of the pesky pants-pooping.
Tag someone without warning and run. Now they're it.
This one's easy, the next time you get on an elevator, simply face the wrong way.
Make no mention of it.
Watch how others react.
Put a penny on a train track... back away and wait. I promise it's won't hurt the train any. The penny on the other hand? Well, you know. You probably did this one in high-school.
Hit someone with a pillow. Don't be scared, even if they're not expecting it, if there's a pillow nearby, they'll probably hit you back. Fair is fair. Sometimes starting a war is fun.
