Another epic Hump Day Hiatus

This will give you the refreshing break you deserve. Promise. It’s the world-renowned Hump Day Hiatus. Be sure to view in full screen mode!

Check out this week’s PSA

It’s the true story of a young down-under physician in New South Wales, a jogger in Los Angeles, a cantankerous old lady half a world away, an unborn baby and an unfit driver, and how their lives all intertwine with tragic consequences. All that in just six and a half minutes. But there is a positive moral to the story, …

One sumptuous HDH!

“HDH? What’s that,” you say? It’s the celebrated Hump Day Hiatus, known world-wide for its ability to transport visitors (known as “Hiatees”) in the opposite direction of stress, anxiety, boredom and tedium each and every Wednesday (aka Hump Day). This is a particularly effective dose, I think you’ll agree. Please view in full screen mode. Take a deep breath. Let …

What’s in your wallet?

The question is posed by way of a mid-week break, better known as the celebrated Hump Day Hiatus. Today’s HDH asks (very obliquely and also very beautifully), are you happy doing what you’re doing?

Music Day

HUMP DAY HIATUS

I don’t think any other post in the long and glorious history of the Hump Day Hiatus captures the spectacular beauty of this planet quite as well as this one does. It’s stunning, and begs to be watched in full-screen mode (click play, then on the 4-arrow icon in the lower right corner). The scenes you’re about to see were …

Well this is interesting.

But I wish it came with a slo-mo option. How do you cram ten minutes’ worth of information into seven minutes and change? Watch and you’ll find out. You’ll also come away with an important fact about healthcare costs in the U.S. You know those AT&T commercials that have the tagline, “It’s not complicated”? Well, this issue is complicated. The …

Ready for a break?

Of course you are. Let’s pay our respects to the last days of summer with a trip to the beach down under and, courtesy of the gentleman we meet about thirty seconds into this, we get to see a helicopter rescue. You’re too close the edge, mate! Bathtub IV from Keith Loutit on Vimeo.
