Hear The Rainbow

Because you can't "taste the rainbow" through your computer screen, I've decided to provide a great list of color-based songs.  Colors are used pretty frequently in song titles so finding a great song with the major colors wasn't very difficult.  Orange on the other hand...

 In ROYGBIV order:

"99 Red Balloons", Goldfinger -

Sorry to all of you Nena fans out there, I like Goldfinger's cover better than the original.

"Color Orange orange song", The Frog Street Press -

If you actually watched that one, I feel bad.  Sorry, but it will be stuck in your head all day.  What's really scary is that The Frog Street Press made a video like, "Color Orange orange song" for each color.  But you're in luck, for I am a merciful blogger (and I think we all know how to spell our colors by now).

"Yellow Sun", The Raconteurs -

One of Jack White's many bands.  I think he could join a mariachi band and sell out arenas instantly.

"Greenshirt", Elvis Costello -

I'm definitely naming my future son Elvis.  But only if he becomes a famous front man.

"Mr Blue Sky", ELO -

ELO's fans have been petitioning to get them into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.  If ABBA is in the Hall of Fame, I certainly think ELO should be.

Sorry to disappoint you, but Indigo and Violet don't have any great songs of their own.  Unless you want to listen to Hole or Coldplay, go for it.

Now for another song for my largest reader demographic, kindergartners:

Coning - All The Cool Kids Are Doing It!

Before I begin, I would like to thank James Neumann for this new look. So sleek. So classy.

I first became aware of coning in mid-July when I, an innocent Chick-Fil-A employee, was coned. I thought it was hilarious despite being the victim.

To start off, here is a classic coning attack:

Here's why coning doesn't bother me:

1) You've already paid for the ice cream, what you do with it is up to you.
2) It doesn't harm the employee in any way.
3) It's funny.

Unfortunately, not everyone shares my opinion:

Someone takes being manager of a McDonalds a little too seriously...

On the other hand, there is a less popular drive-through prank which was featured on tosh.o which is pretty annoying (but still a little funny).

I present to you "Fire In The Hole"

Just make sure you cover your license plate kids because this offense can get you arrested.
It might just be me, but I would rather be arrested for a more important cause... like jaywalking.
