You have to check this out. Microsoft airdropped 1000's of software units over this little town called Willow Springs near Chicaog. WTF! Check out these two links!:

JACKASS INTERUPTED

Oh my god... that is SO obviously staged(the youtube video).

Do they actually believe people will think those video's are legit?

The first one with the jackass guy looks like it's probably staged. The second one isn't. I'm guessing they simply dropped them out of a helicopter and filmed it.

Both member had only this event in their video pages, and both were created 2 days ago at the same time.

I posted comments that they were staged on both, and rather than reply they deleted my comments!!!


Both are staged by microsoft, and will probably get picked up by a new organization too... sad.

How does it feel to be part of the hype?

Feeling used yet?

Just be a good consumer and put "iT" on your must buy list.

Whatever it is.

Just buy it.

And don't forget to buy the tee shirt, bumper sticker and use the smart sounding catch phrase so the rest of us can see how hyped you are.

Everything is sponsored by something. Just thought it looked pretty cool. That's all. If I go to a concert or fireworks display sponsored by a corporation (and they all are), I don't feel used. Do you? Not defending anyone here. But cynicism can take the pleasure out life. My motto: enjoy. just don't buy.

Speaking of taking the pleasure out of life. What's your feeling on Randi. Here's a clip of Uri Geller on the tonight show squirming in his chair after Randi set him up for failure. Going overboard? Or did Geller deserve it?

The second video looks so fake !!!!!

And first one looks more like someone throwing the chutes from a tree or something...

Is the first a failed attempt to see stars or little birdies after hitting his head on a tree?

It doesn't cost a dime for a company to post on YouTube.
