Celebrating Friday With Fun & Free Stuff

Brian Dolleman - March 8, 2013 - Fun / Humor, Uncategorized

This is how I like to celebrate Fridays: sharing fun and free stuff with you. Enjoy your weekend!

#1. FREE BOOK—The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller.

I read this about 4 years ago & I’ve been talking about it ever since. This book is definitely on my top 10 list. If you haven’t read it yet, get it & read it! Be the first one to comment on this blog post & I’ll send you a copy (scroll down to the bottom of this page to comment).

#2. FREE BOOK—Happy Easter Prudy V. by Angela Hagebusch.

Just in time for Easter, my friend Angela has published her second book—and it’s a good one. I really like Prudy V (because I can identify with her creative plotting of revenge). Be the first one to comment on this blog post & I’ll send you a copy (scroll down to the bottom of this page to comment). Also, follow Angela on Twitter. You’ll be glad you did.

#3. VIDEO—Cats Can Be Jerks.

Yeah, they’re kinda like people in that way.

#4. VIDEO—Names Of Things You Might Have.

I like this video because now I know what that thing I have is called. Misophonia.

#5. VIDEO—Concrete Tent.

I might consider camping if I had one of these.

#6. VIDEO—Kid Dance Battle.

This is how all the world’s problems should be solved. No more wars, just dance battles.

#7. VIDEO—This Is My Court (Street Basketball).

I love the look of this video.

#8. VIDEO—Fruit & Vegetable Music.

I just wish this guy would wear socks.

#9. VIDEO—NY Sign Department.

That’s a lot of signs.

#10. VIDEO—Never Enough Alfa.

This dude is crazy. And likable.

This happened to me once. I was on a walk in Mexico and heard someone yelling “Hey!” at me—it turned out to be a goat.

#6. VIDEO—Nivea Stress Test.

I hope these people got more than some Nivea products for their trouble.
