I was just thinking that the phrase “green eggs and ham” can be read two ways. Either the eggs are green and the ham is ham colored, or the eggs and the ham are green. The picture (on right), clearly shows both to be green, but I always thought the eggs were just green…

Rule #10

My favorite TV show is NCIS. It may not be most watched because of dumb gossip shows like Jersey Shore, but at eight seasons, its still going strong with more viewers than ever. Three years ago when I started watching NCIS, I loved how one of the main characters, Gibbs, makes rules that apply primarily to investigations, but also to his life in general. That is when I created Sam’s Rules.
At the moment, Rule #10, is the only rule on the list. There is no Rule #1, or Rule # 2, or even Rule #9. Just Rule #10. Rule #10 states: “Don’t sleep past 10.” Go ahead and laugh. Sounds kind of dumb. But all the kids my age sleep past lunch time on weekends, until 1 o’clock, some even sleep until dinner time, 6 o’clock. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love to sleep, but what a waste of a day. One should wake up no later than 10 (I usually don’t sleep past 8:30), eat breakfast (I’m thinking of adding a Rule B that says “Always eat breakfast”), and go out an seize the day; carpe diem (I take latin, I hate it, but I believe in the messages of the poems we read).
Anyways I’ve got things to do, things to see, places to go. Rule ROW: Rock on World.

And thats How Sam C’s It.

The Candles Burn On and On and On

The It: Hannukah or Channukah (I prefer the first one; the Ch just looks ugly)

Being the great lover of acapella and music and singing that I am, this is a fabulous remake of “Dynamite” in a Hannukah version. Basically, these dudes are cool. Enjoy it. Also, if you don’t know the story of Hannukah, this is a good short version. Here’s my take: The outnumbered Maccabbees fought the very powerful Greeks for a while, and won somehow. The few soldiers that were left where practically dying. They found a small bit of oil that should have only lasted for one day, but instead it lasted for 8 days and nights. Hence Hannukah.

 

And that’s How Sam Sees It.

Bottoms Up

The It: Mt. DEW

WARNING: Men should not drink this. It kills your sperm. And nobody wants that.

I’m in love with Mt. Dew. End story. If it was a person I would marry it. When you pop open the can and take the first sip its this refreshing taste that is practically indescribable. I cannot even describe it in terms of flavors. It’s simply a little taste of paradise, like laying in a hammock on a beach or in a rain forest or wherever your favorite place is. Or its like love a beautiful indescribable feeling that’s just simply amazing.

This glorious drink now comes in several flavors. However, I can tell you with certainty that the original is still the best. The other one I have tasted is the red kind. It still has that indescribable flavor but with the taste of the candy sweedish fish mixed in. While I love sweedish fish, the taste is not for everybody and also the red flavor is thicker and less thirst quenching. I haven’t tasted the others because when ever I am faced with the option I just have to get the original because its so good.

Side note: I suggest you regularly drink the diet because it has all the benefits of the same amount of CAFFEINE (yes I said caffeine. get hyper and high off it and stay wired for 6 hours) without the reddiculous (idk how you spell it) amount of sugar. However, if your just buying one bottle of it at a gas station store or something, the sugar is a nice treat, along with say…some M&Ms. hehe

Bottoms Up. Get hyper. Get wired.

And that’s How Sam C’s It.

Like A Good Boy

The It: Like A g6 Parody

 

1. If you have never heard like a g6 (listen to the radio more), watch this NOW:

 

 

2. If you liked that, but especially if you didn’t like it, here is a great parody. Watch it NOW:

 

 

Hilarious. End Story. Anyways, I’m not a big fan of the real song, and I won’t even get into how stupid it is that it’s in the top 10 if not number one on itunes. Bleh.

If you liked this these boys have got more coming your way on YouTube.

And that’s How Sam C’s It.

Not Your Average Radio

The It: Pandora (online personalized radio)

Imagine: A free radio that is online (so you can access it anywhere; theres an iPhone app), that plays only songs you like with a 10 second advertisement every few songs. This radio telling you everything about the song you are listening to: lyrics, artist biography, similiar artists, etc. The radio allowing you to bookmark any song you like so you can remember to add it to your iPod later.

Well you don’t have to imagine, Pandora Radio is REAL.

Here’s what you do:

1. Click here. Or click “Pandora” under my links on the sidebar.

2. When you get there it will ask you for a song to base your first radio station off of. Enter whatever song you have been listening to on repeat all day (I hope I’m not the only one who does that).

3. You now have a personalized radio based off of that song. Change the name of the station to a cool name.

4. You can add songs to the radio by clicking add variety. Also, when it plays a song you can click like or dislike or the other options under menu to refine what songs it plays.

5. In order to bookmark songs or artists for you to remember you must make a free account. DO IT.

6. Now you can access your stations ANYWHERE. And you can make tons more stations for you to listen too. Or if you already have, hit quick mix at the bottom to hear a mix of your favorite songs.

If you don’t feel the awesomeness yet, I pity you.

WARNING: Do not skip to many songs because after a while it won’t let you skip anymore because of their music licenses (this is the sites only flaw, but don’t blame them they have to sign a contract to get you the music plus its only a limit on how many songs you can skip per hour). Then again, skip all you want and then make a new radio station.

And that’s how Sam C’s it.

Green Eggs and Ham

The It: Green Eggs and Ham

It seems only appropriate that my first legit (how I love that word) post be about Green Eggs and Ham. (If you don’t know the words you are a sad person who needs to go back and have a childhood but if this tragedy has befallen you click here. But really if you haven’t its not worth reading with out the amazing pictures).

Green Eggs…I pictures soggy puke green colored eggs sitting in a little pool of their own juice. YUM.

Ham…slimy brown sliced meat that I have lost the ability to digest. Totally YUM.

If someone placed green eggs and ham on your plate would you eat it? Would you at least try it? I seriously doubt it. You probably take one look at it and ask what’s for desert. Technically this is totally rude, especially if you are a guest in someone elses house. But more than that, you’ve never tasted it, how can you just say you don’t like it?

If there is something completely random that I despise about most people is pickyness when it comes to food, their unwillingness to just try something. What’s the saying: if you try something you might just like it.

To bad that when you’re a kid you only see the pretty pictures and giggle at Sam I Am.

That’s How Sam C’s It.

Hello world!

The It: Hello World.

Hello World…that is so creative, we spent all 55 mins of my first computer science class this year learning how to write that. I have to wonder if “Mr. Word Press” thought he was being original when he made that the official thing for any new user. He is right though: I’m like a new born baby sprung into this Brave New World of blogging and I just wanna scream HELLO WORLD! Ya…totally.

Something about that lamp…it looks so familiar…

I’m in Narnia! I’ll give your regards to the not so  gorgeous Prince Caspian, the handsome valiant and brave Peter, sharp-shot Susan, idiot Edmund, and the unfortunately soft hearted Lucy, shall I?

The Hello World would definitely look cooler all iced over don’t you think? If only that ice queen wasn’t so ugly…maybe I could live with her ruling Narnia, but she’s just so darn ugly…

 

Don’t be offended.

Cuz that’s How Sam C’s It.
