More than 99 bottles were used to create this Christmas tree, which was actually built using 1,000 Heineken beer bottles. Currently it's on display in Shanghai.

Christmas
This story is a few years old, but think of it and count your blessings if you think you are having a bad Christmas. Yours might be bad, but it's not stuck-upside-down-in-a-septic-tank bad. Could there be anything worse? I submit that there is not. On December 25, 2007, an Iowa resident, Robert Schoff, 77, trying to fix a toilet problem, fell, and found himself stuck upside down in his septic tank for over an hour before his wife spotted him. After being rescued by fire fighters, Schoff said in the understatement of that year, "It was the worst Christmas Eve I've ever had."
No shit.

A 50-foot Santa Claus display accidentally burned down this past weekend in Santa Catarina, Brazil. That's what you get Santa for not bringing me those Air Jordans in 1993. I never forget.

This is a little dated but I went out to "Strong Island" for Christmas this year to hang out with my buddy Stan and his family. While there we drove by this RIDICULOUSLY decorated house that attracted swarms of cars like moths to a flame. I saw it and was like I gots to get me a photo of this absurdity. If I was a neighbor I would definitely pull the plug on this. It was a freaking traffic jam on this block.

Nnamdi's fixation with turrible hats (and iPhone cases) is starting to become a serious problem. I can respek fashion forward, but now that he's dragging wifey into the mix, it's starting to just get offensive. Look:
Is it Christmas?

I'm a big fan of my new look. I think it'll kill with the ladies under the mistletoe.
