Al Gore Snowman Contest



Here is a little chuckle for you. Maybe you'll even enter the contest.

HUMAN EVENTS announces its first ever Al Gore Snowman contest. Our friend Amb. Fred Eckert suggested that we award a prize for the best snowman made to look like the chief poobah of global warming baloney, former Vice President Al Gore.

With Washington digging out of a near-record snowfall, it’s only appropriate to (dis)honor the principal perpetrator of biggest fraud since the UN’s Oil for Food scandal. (That one, after all, only cost about $30 billion. The global warming “cap and tax” legislation will cost much more.)

Tim Tebow to Appear in Pro-Family Super Bowl Ad


This should be a good add for all people, especially young people, to see during the Super Bowl game.

Tebow, 22, will be appearing with his mother in a 30-second commercial that will be watched by some 90 million people next month.

The commercial is produced by Focus on the Family.

Though Focus on the Family gave little detail about the commercial, the presence of both Tebow and his mother in it, as well as the organization’s well-known pro-life stance, suggests that the story will include how Tebow’s mother refused to have an abortion while she was pregnant with him despite having suffered from a life-threatening infection. It is also well known that Pam Tebow, who was serving as a missionary when Tim was born in the Philippines, had homeschooled all of her children and worked to instill the family’s Christian beliefs along the way.

Gray Eagles

This is an outstanding high quality film. It is emotional and inspiring. Please set asside about 30 minutes to view it - you will be rewarded for your time. Paste the link at the bottom in your browser to see it.

Filmmaker and P-51 Mustang Pilot Chris Woods has put together a wonderful film that captures the emotional reunion between a humble WWII Mustang ace (Jim Brooks) and the historic plane he thought he'd never see again.

Inspired by the flood of memories triggered by this unimaginable encounter with a long lost friend, the 88-year old pilot finally breaks his silence, sharing his stories and experiences of war with the grandchildren who never thought they'd hear them.

Wood's interviews with Brooks, his grandchildren, and other airmen who were touched by the Mustang's role in history are cut together to create a compelling narrative that is framed in stunning high-definition photography.

NYC's 'skinniest' house sells for $2.1M


Now here is one you don't see everyday. I thought this would be worth a chuckle, at least for me, as my real estate sensibilities were rattled.

The red, 9 1/2 foot wide, 42 foot long brick building in Greenwich Village was built in 1873 on land used as an alley between homes. The town house was listed for sale last August at $2.7 million. The two bedroom, two bath home last sold in 2000 for $1.6 million.

The newly-sold building was listed on real estate Web sites Wednesday as a rental available for $10,000 a month. An e-mail seeking comment from the listed rental agent Wednesday was not immediately returned.
