VideoBestFriends Episode 9: Local St. Patrick's Day Celebration!

2008-03-18T17:10:00.000-04:00

There is an impromptu ongoing gag in this video, see if you can guess what it is!

Each year, on the weekend closest to St. Patrick's Day, the small town of Erin Tennessee hosts an "Irish Day" Parade, accompanied by a week long carnvial in downtown. This year, John and Laura spent the day with Jim (John's best friend from college) and Abby (Jim's girlfriend) from Atlanta. Sara (Laura's best friend) from Murfressboro, and long time best friend Chris were also in attendance. We watch the parade from Chris's yard, and then hit the carnival.

Jason and Stacy were also in attendance, but were mysteriously never captured on film.

VideoBestFriends Episode 8: New Year's Extravaganza!

2008-02-27T16:38:00.004-05:00

It is the much anticipated, and long over due next installment of VideoBestFriends! And this one is almost timely!

Jason and John, with girlfriend Stacy and wife Laura respectively, journey to the frozen north of Chicago to spend New Year's Eve with Tony and his fiancee Coty. Topics covered: Effingham Cross (real answer:"www.crossusa.org" not "crossamerica.org". Vaginal qualities of "Flarp". Is the Sears Tower the tallest building in America? Neat toy stores (www.rotofugi.com), stinky cabs, and being drunk in public. Why does everyone pick the nose of the large art installations? How long is the walk from Millenium Park to Navy Pier? Awesome fireworks and more!

2008-01-29T15:02:00.000-05:00

Hillary Clinton at TSU? You know it! The same day she was crushed in the South Carolina primaries by my main man Obama.

Vote early! Vote often!

Upate with no video. Like cereal with no prize in the box!

2007-10-22T17:35:00.000-04:00

No video today as we’ve all been uber busy.

1. John has moved back to this time zone.
2. I went to Travis’s wedding in Canada and sampled the many wonderful things Vancouver has to offer.
3. John and I are hanging out tonight, the first time since I was out there during my spring visit!
4. I’m flying to Chicago this Friday to kick it with House of Tony and see Minus the Bear.

New video soon. We promise.

VideoBestFriends Episode 6: Tuxedo Terrorist

2007-09-24T16:32:00.001-04:00

So we all know Travis is getting married, right? I'm in the wedding, Dan's the best man and it happens in three weeks...in CANADA. British Columbia, the OTHER SIDE OF this continent. Anyways, Dan started a new job and was slacking on getting measured for his tux. I made it my personal mission to harass him into submission or an aneurysm. He got measured yesterday, so we're safe. No one has to be odd man out and ruin a wedding. YAY!
Special thanks to Colleen for not freaking out and to Chris Mitchell for our first failed attempt at this.

VideoBestFriends Episode 5: 4th of July in Chicago

2007-09-18T10:26:00.000-04:00

I hope you’re all wearing rubber underwear because you’re going to need it after this gem. This is July 4th up at Tony and Coty’s place. In this video you’ll get to see the future Goodwins and also a shot of my now ex-girlfriend Amber.

Do us a favor and leave a comment.

VideoBestFriends Episode 4: California Self Amusement

2007-08-13T21:03:00.000-04:00

More amusement park adventure! This is a clip of John and I running around California Adventure sans that AWESOME FERRIS WHEEL. The highlight is probably when we get in trouble for filming on the Tower of Terror. Be warned, there is some first person roller coaster action in this, which caused some viewers vertigo.

We have tons of this California footage! Venice Beach, Santa Monica, Homeless Fun! All on their way...But I'll try and sneak in some random videos between now and then.

School's about to start...Woooo!

VideoBestFriends Episode 3: Grumpy Go-Round

2007-08-05T20:15:00.000-04:00

How can one really know if his supposed "Video Best Friend" is truly a best friend? John seemed to think sticking us in California Adventure's Sun Wheel was a good test. End result? We still talk...but that's about it. Next time maybe we can bond on ohhh I don't know, Space Mountain, the Dumbo ride, tea cups...or really anything that raises the pulse instead of just my blood pressure.

I'm a jerk, I know I know. John is the eternal optimist.

VideoBestFriends Episode 2: John and Laura attend Misty's high school graduation.

2007-08-01T04:52:00.000-04:00

John and Laura leave Hollywood for Tennessee as they attend the high school graduation of John's little sister, Misty. There is a truck, a motorcycle, and a cake! Afterwards a death defying night dunebuggy ride preceeds shock and intrigue as a decoy duck meets a grisly fate. But who was piloting that Paddleboat? Special guests: Laura, Chris, Misty, John's Family, and making his first appearance, Video Best Friend Jason!

Video Best Friends Episode 1: New Orleans

2007-07-30T12:29:00.000-04:00

This is a quick visual summary of John's trip to New Orleans to help with Katrina Relief. It's longer and much more serious than the majority of the updates are going to be.

This is that all too boring initial post.

Well, here we are. This is a little site where I, and hopefully a friend or two, will be posting random videos for your viewing. Everything should be created by us, relatively copyright free, and generally not of a budget.

This is just a place for friends. Best friends. Video Best Friends.
