After a Friday night on the ballroom floor, our weekend was fairly uneventful. How was your weekend? Surely someone out there did something exciting!
In this post by Leo (Doggy’s Style), he explained his appreciation for Tic-Tacs Cinnamon, which got me thinking – after all, I’m a fan of the white Tic-Tacs.
I imagine some of the readers here are Seinfeld fans, thus may remember the episode of the sound caused by Tic-Tacs when walking. What if someone transformed that sound into music?
For your Monday Morning Entertainment, I present the music of Tic-Tac Man. Have a good week!
Well, I wouldn’t say Tic-Tac Man is the coolest guy around, but I suppose he has very fresh breath…

Well, Frank, I showed my teen son the Tic Tac Man video (he’s home from school until tomorrow). I wish you could have seen his reaction. Made me laugh out loud. Let’s just say “cool” was not one of the words he used. 🙂 But you gave me a good time out of the whole deal, so that makes Tic Tac man more cool than I first gave him credit for!

Believe it or not, I am STILL shoveling snow! Batting cleanup, actually. Getting rid of old piles of crap and ice that doesn’t want to die. That, and restocking with firewood. We had two offers of wood that we weren’t sure would work out, so we asked for both – and got ’em! From famine to mega-feast – now I gotta find places to PUT it all! 😀
Enjoy our … “Indian Fall”? (Hey, warm fall weather is called “Indian Summer”, so wouldn’t warm winter weather be “Indian Fall”? 😉 )

I like Seinfeld but I seldom watched the show because I loathe network TV with all those commercials. Fun video! I spent much of the weekend writing and I saw “Django Unchained” at my neighborhood multiplex. It’s extremely violent but that’s typical Quentin Tarantino. Overall, I thought it was a very well made film. As with “Inglorious Basterds”, he’s once again created an historical fantasy for the silver screen.

Lame,
Violent movies just aren’t my thing, so Django hasn’t been on the list … but the previews look interesting. … so thanks for confirming why I shouldn’t go. Glad you enjoyed the video … and thanks for commenting.

I like the mint ones myself, Frank. The Tic-Tac man is quite something. He knows how to work the crowd. It reminded me of Himalayan music. I’m not sure if that’s what it’s called. I went to an amusement park this weekend and it rained on us. No fun!
