The funniest moment of our Retreat to Paradise…yet

I can sometimes watch those ridiculous funny videos on YouTube and feel slightly jealous that I don’t have a funny one out there in cyberspace yet…but no longer! This was the funniest moment yet of our Retreat to Paradise courtesy of an unsuspecting Amy Smalley! I still can’t believe Amy fell for this one!

If you can’t laugh at this, then you are not human!

I thought this would simply be another ridiculous YouTube video, and it turned out to be true!

Somebody needs to learn better coping skills

I work with couples, and many times I wish they had learned how to handle frustration early on in life.  If you are going to get married, you are going to experience frustration at some point.  It is just part of the game.  But I believe many people learn the exact wrong way to handle frustration, much like this skateboarder…

Why do we laugh at wedding bloopers?

I hate to even post this video, but I had to! I had not seen this yet until a few days ago, and I’m still laughing.  My wife almost shed a tear for this poor girl.

Good Jokes Cure Bad Moods

After a rough day at the office or a nasty interchange with a rude store clerk, a great joke can often quickly lift us out of a bad mood.

Now, Dutch researchers think they’ve verified why this is so and how a joke helps us — most of the time – laugh it off and turn our negative mood positive.

It’s not as obvious as you might think, says Madelijn Strick, PhD, a postdoctoral researcher at Radboud University in Nijmegen, Netherlands, and the lead author of the study, published in the journal Emotion.

“Most researchers would argue that humor counters negative emotions because of the positive emotions it elicits,” she tells WebMD in an email interview.

A perfect summary of my life with girls by Seth Rogen and Megan Fox

I about fell out of my chair when I saw this clip on YouTube!  I can not even begin to tell you how much this relates to my life as a single man in high school and college.  Thank you Seth Rogen for sharing this all with us!

Probably the most inappropriate thing I’ve ever had my kids do

shoot-the-freak

I still can not believe I had my boys participate in the Coney Island Boardwalk game called “Shoot the Freak”. Check out the video and watch my sons shoot at a live person with a paint gun. Maybe it’s just me, but something just does not feel right about letting your kids take aim at another human being and shoot!

Of course I still let them do it, so I’m not sure what that says about me but I’m sure you all can leave comments to let me know.

The Smalley kids make the show here in NYC!

the-kids

All we wanted to do was get from the Subway station at Bowling Green to the free Staten Island Ferry so we could see the Statue of Liberty.  As we headed across Battery Park we got held up by three guys as they began their show.  Their acrobats and dancing were incredible, but the finale was even better! That’s when the kids get involved, but you’ll have to check it out (if you don’t want to watch the whole thing, because they’re not you’re kids, just skip toward the end and you’ll see the final stunt):
