midweek at the oasis

Weight quote

Boy, these Wednesdays roll around fast. That quote above is one of my favorite finds of the week, and I present it here as a public service announcement.

If you’re a Yankees fan, you probably feel as sad as I do about Robinson Cano leaving the team for the Mariners. Last night was his first game back in the Bronx and Jimmy Fallon tried to prepare him for the inevitable “boos” by inviting New Yorkers to scream at what they thought was just a poster of him. This video is really more of a prank on the fans, and shows that, regardless of our big mouths, New Yorkers are really big mushballs inside. It’s hilarious.

Speaking of pranks, here’s the best kind: a prank that pays it forward. Love this!

Here’s a social experiment that will make you think, make you tear up, make you open your eyes a little wider.

Enjoy the rest of the week! xo

  1. Gary watched the first video with me – being the loyal SF Giants fan he is (which is what you should be, or the Padres! But I get it!) Funny!

    The rest? Love, love, love.

    Where DO you find them?

    xoxo

    1. I will always be a Yankees fan wherever I live! When you move here, you can try to be a Padres fan but, believe me, it’s almost impossible! xo

  2. The homeless video didn’t surprise me at all. When I was in the city a lot, I rarely looked directly at the homeless who were sitting around. I felt that unless I was prepared to help, it was intrusive .

  3. I saw the one with the waitress before but the others I had not. I’m so emotional now! It’s really sad when you think stuff like that could happen to people you love!

  4. Thanks for stopping by One Road at a Time. I just spent some time browsing your site and I look forward to following. Cheers ~

  5. The homeless video doesn’t surprise. We are so busy thinking about where we are going that it’s easy to pass by someone you know. The same thing could happen if our loved ones weren’t dressed up as homeless

  6. The video with the waitress was fantastic. Nice to watch something awesome happen to a nice person.

    I’ve seen the quote a few times this week. Makes me laugh out loud. šŸ™‚

  7. Those videos really made me think. I need to stop being so in my head and enjoy the world around. Love the quote; I think I may live forever!
