Cockeyed.com is a web site that is easy to fall in love with. Chief Cook & Bottle Washer Rob runs the show at Cockeyed and he really puts forth a lot of effort. There is so much diversified material to consume on Cockeyed, the bulk of it amusing or better. As Rob has grown his web site content and audience so too has he grown in life, marrying and having a baby. Kudos to Rob for not abandoning the popular site even though he is a busy man. Beside being busy, Rob is also very creative and industrious. Check out some of the experiments the Cockeyed crew has performed and reported on over the years there under Main Categories: How Much Is Inside? Thrill and marvel at the hard-hitting journalism that exposes the facts hidden behind some of America’s favorite products. Over 50 different items were obtained and tested to find out the truth behind How Much Is Inside? A popular sandwich spread was tested to learn How much celery can one jar of peanut butter fill? A best-selling cola was tested to find out how much fizz is inside. On it goes, every test revealed in gritty detail, with stunning full-color photo-images accompanying the text. Rob and his posse are very talented indeed. Another personal favorite under Main Categories is Pranks. I recall peeing myself a little from lol’ing so hard while reading about a few of Rob’s clever shenanigans. Erecting a official-looking Plaque as homage to historical events that never happened or goofing on McDonald’s customers by placing fake placards on the drive-through menu sign, Rob follows through on some of his gags by inviting his web site audience to participate and send in their own little story and photos. Nothing mean-spirited or destructive is found on Cockeyed.com, just good creative fun.
I like that Rob is not cheap, unafraid to buy some supplies to build a standing Elvis mannequin or a totally wild Halloween costume. Pound for pound Cockeyed.com is one of the best web sites I know and I recommend you take a look for yourself. I learned from Rob’s site to bring my camera with me when I venture out of the house; the world has taken on a different perspective for me as I find a heightened state of awareness to so many things that are so easy to miss as one drives down the road of life. Here in beautiful New Jersey the four seasons provide many picturesque scenes worthy of recording. You never know what you are going to stumble upon and now I rarely mutter ‘I should have brought my camera!’ under my breath. I am in no way affiliated with Cockeyed.com. Permission was obtained from Rob to write about and linky to Cockeyed. Thanks, Rob!
