Bumper-Grams

My friend “Number 6” who lives in The Villages created this as a product to sell, around the year 1980. Bumper-Grams are blank bumper stickers on high quality white vinyl with a red border that you can write on yourself with a permanent marker. Create your own slogan! Yes, well doesn’t that sound like a fun afternoon activity.

Seriously though, I do have a few of these and will mail you one if you send me a dollar through Paypal at this link.





Action Movie FX App Review

Search the App Store for “Action Movie” to find this App for your iPhone or iPod Touch. It lets you records short video clips and add special effects, most of which are things crashing or blowing up. Check it out, the first few effects are free, the rest will cost ya. If you have any idea for a video, let me know and I’ll buy the effects and record something for you.

Randomly Choosing a Winner for a Contest

In this video a winner is randomly chosen from a list of people who commented on a Youtube video. First I use this YouTube Comment Scraper to create a list of the commenter’s names.

After removing my own name from that list, I copy and paste it into the Random.org List Randomizer. This will put the names in random order, with the top name being the one you choose for the contest.

Because I said this is only open to subscribers to my channel, I then verify that the winner is a subscriber. He will hear from me soon via Youtube PM about how to collect the prize.

How to Make Charcoal in Minecraft

This is mostly a test of my computer’s performance in recording gameplay using gtk-recordmydesktop in linux, with a lower screen resolution. Normally I have 1920×1200 pixel display resolution, but for this video I temporarily changed it in NVidia settings to 1152×864 to see if the lower resolution would result in less screen lag.

To make torches without coal, just chop down a tree, use the wood to make a pickaxe, then get enough cobblestone to make a furnace. Then burn wooden planks to cook wood logs to make charcoal.

How To Make Your Own T-Shirt

Link to the Carl Blemming Shirt Shop

With some experience using CafePress, and after researching Zazzle and SpreadShirt, I decided to use Printfection to make my official Carl Blemming Tee Shirts. These websites make it easy to offer products for sale online. The hard part is coming up with some kind of design for your T-Shirts. If you are good with Photoshop or the Gimp software, then you might be able to make some money selling shirts and other products.
