Giant Robots part 1

What could be more awesome than a giant robot? Okay maybe a giant robot Fonz, but until that is built there is this.

Optimus Prime
Where: Yunnan China
Size: 40 feet
A giant concrete transformer in a remote area of China?

Gundam RX-78-2
Where: Tokyo Japan
Size: 59 Feet
Made for it's 30th anniversary. It's head moves around and it lights up at night. Sorry but this statue was dismantled after a two month display.










Gigantor (Tetsujin)
Where: Kobe Japan
Size: 60 feet tall & 50 tons
Built shortly after the Gundam statue and made one foot taller. This sucker cost $1.5 million dollars to build and was partly funded by the city of Kobe. This one will not be dismantled.


Taekwon V
Where: South Korea
Size: 364 Feet
The centerpiece of the Robot Land theme park. Okay, this has not actually been built yet, but when it's complete it will

be six times the size of the Gundam statue. The statue of liberty is 151 feet. Scheduled to be completed in 2013.


Michael Jackson
Size: 32 feet
Where: Various places. I don't actually want to know.
Not a robot but too weird not to mention. Michael Jackson demanded his record company build nine statues of himself to promote his 1995 album HIStory. This fiasco cost $30 million. I wish I was kidding about this. What a jack@$$.

Thank you Holly, for reminding me about awkwardfamilyphotos.com. I have been looking at them for the past hour and they are amazing. So far, although it is difficult to choose, has been a favorite:

Three Wolf Moon

Jim and Pam's wedding on The Office is memorable for spoofing the You Tube wedding dance video. But there is an even more powerful internet legend that episode ripped apart - the "Three Wolf Moon" shirt.



I saw this shirt last spring and I should have bought one then! If not for it's sheer awsomeness, which Dwight demonstrated in the episode, but for the reviews owners have left on the site. I have never seen a shirt with such great reviews. This is just one of the 1,200 five-star Amazon reviews.


15,978 of 16,123 people found the following review helpful:
5.0 out of 5 stars Dual Function Design, November 10, 2008
By B. Govern "Bee-Dot-Govern" (New Jersey, USA)

This item has wolves on it which makes it intrinsically sweet and worth 5 stars by itself, but once I tried it on, that's when the magic happened. After checking to ensure that the shirt would properly cover my girth, I walked from my trailer to Wal-mart with the shirt on and was immediately approached by women. The women knew from the wolves on my shirt that I, like a wolf, am a mysterious loner who knows how to 'howl at the moon' from time to time (if you catch my drift!). The women that approached me wanted to know if I would be their boyfriend and/or give them money for something they called mehth. I told them no, because they didn't have enough teeth, and frankly a man with a wolf-shirt shouldn't settle for the first thing that comes to him.

I arrived at Wal-mart, mounted my courtesy-scooter (walking is such a drag!) sitting side saddle so that my wolves would show. While I was browsing tube socks, I could hear aroused asthmatic breathing behind me. I turned around to see a slightly sweaty dream in sweatpants and flip-flops standing there. She told me she liked the wolves on my shirt, I told her I wanted to howl at her moon. She offered me a swig from her mountain dew, and I drove my scooter, with her shuffling along side out the door and into the rest of our lives. Thank you wolf shirt.

Pros: Fits my girthy frame, has wolves on it, attracts women
Cons: Only 3 wolves (could probably use a few more on the 'guns'), cannot see wolves when sitting with arms crossed, wolves would have been better if they glowed in the dark.

Read more of the reviews. As an underground meme the "Three Wolf Moon" shirt is legendary.

Oh Oh Ee Oh



Christopher Walken makes everything sound better.

Yep, Still Awkward



Just a reminder that Awkward Family Photos is better than ever.
