World’s Biggest Sprinkler

Nothing says summertime like running through a sprinkler – and this is one heck of a sprinkler. Target installed this behemoth in Houston, Texas, last weekend and let more than 4,000 kids cool off for free on a hot summer day. Watch the video to see it being assembled or skip to about :35 to kick-start your jealousy.

Target Ain’t People

Angry at Target’s donation of over $150K to Tom Emmer*, a conservative candidate for Governor of Minnesota (here are the reasons), a flash mob descended on the big box retailer and … sang!

Here’s Target Ain’t People, by the political group MoveOn.org: Hit play or go to Link [YouTube]

*Note: Target has since apologized for the donation.

Deer Visits Target

This video from Yahoo! of a deer (just a little guy) crashing through the window of an elementary school reminded me of when a deer wandered through the automatic doors at our Target in West Des Moines a couple of years ago. Such a thing would never happen now – all of the wooded area near that particular Target has been replaced with retail and apartments. But at the time, it was pretty plausible (obviously). I feel sorry for the poor thing – it can’t get any traction on those slick floors!
