Just fueling a pleasant trend . . .


but in mildly related news (of which else, i have little to offer), after years of dedicated research, violent promise, and one baffling sense of urgency, kimberly phony boney maccaroni has finally named her favorite bob dylan record. her seriousness enforced fear, intrigue from mere confrontation, mirroring the very essence of her undoubted choice: there will ALWAYS be blood on the tracks! so, in celebration (it is friday, right?) to the exclusive confusion of marriage and everything else worth a blink of a damn, i say HeyHo! You precious little BlueYou! we always did feel the same, we just saw it from a different point o' view.

Super(star) Delegates


In the race for Super(star) Delegates Barack Obama just picked up the endorsement of Bruce Springsteen, singer for the Atlantic City congressional district of New Jersey. Coming off the heels of Hillary Clinton picking up Ellen Degeneres, talk show host for California, and 50 Cent, rapper from the Brooklyn area of New York, this is a huge get for him. After sureing up her support in the Hispanic community with the endorsement of America Ferrera, Barack has really been looking to make inroads into this demographic. While only pulling over George Lopez, comedian from the district of Los Angles, he has continued to supplant his lead with the African-American community, picking up the likes of Emmit Smith, running back from Dallas, and Greg Oden, center from the Buckeye state, while also adding noticeable white support from the likes of Bill Maher and Scarlett Johansson. With both sides holding on firmly to their base, Hillary with women and latinos, and Obama with African-Americans and white men, they now look to adopt a more populist message so as to appeal to John Edwards blue collar voters. With him out of the race his delegates, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, and John 'Cougar' Mellencamp are up for grabs, and with this race as tight as it is every Super(star) Delegate counts.

Stairway To Heaven don't make it for me, baby



New same old interview with Keith Richards here. He doesn't want kids to do dope -- which according to Urban Dictionary is "heroin, not crack, not powder, but heroin. not marijuana, not meth. but heroin. heroin is the only thing that dope could ever be. people who don't know what dope is are people with very sheltered lives." And apparently doesn't want kids to do Led Zeppelin, either.

Da 'Bucks

Since the summer, I've somewhat indulged in the musical offerings of Da 'Bucks. Not the stuff they put out on their label, cause that's another discussion all together...but the stuff they compile and release as part of Da 'Bucks Entertainment. I'm impressed with the long (and tasteful) musical arm of Da 'Bucks. I think I expected more cheesy new age crap, but I've personally picked up some live Marley, a Fania compilation, and THIS, which of course is amazing and also closely related to the greatness of TTRH. I also recall seeing a quality Lennon retrospective, Atlantic & Stax compilations, the list goes on...I actually wish I could get one of those catalogs where I send them a penny and they send me like 15 CD's of my choice. Indulge my friends.

It smells like chicken, but it can still get you


Is this robot racist?

Mmm...Mmm... Shrimp Crust


The pictured shrimp-crusted cheese pizza is available at finer Pizza Huts in Japan and South Korea. Maybe Reb Lobster or Long John Silvers could bring a version to America? Watch the thrilling commercial:



More crazy multi-culti pizzas are at this website.

Annoying Hipster Douchebag



This Tube made me laugh. The guy come up with some pretty sharp things to say, and kinda zings these innocent hipsters. They all love it. These people almost kinda remind me of hippies in the 60's, a true subculture. I don't think of them as good or bad (judge not), mostly good actually, though I'm generalizing for sure. I find their outlandishness and attitudes entertaining. As Mick would say, "What's a'matter wit you, boy?!"

"I'm going to throw some obscure bands at you, and we'll see if you've heard of them: The Shit Blossoms..."

"Mmmmm, Nicotine-y"

"Reubens says he was a secret smoker during "Pee-wee's Playhouse" -- and now admits that his beloved robot sidekick, Conky, was sometimes used as an ashtray." Rest of Pee Wee Article

This has to be one only times smoking has really looked cool to me and I think I'm going to have to seriously consider taking it up now. Also, what kind of cigarettes do you think Pee-Wee smoked?

Icipop!


So I've often wondered over my life "hmm, what's the craziest way to die", well thankfully Russia has come through once again with another idea. Following on the heels of that wonderful polonium-210 assassination they've now introduced impalement by icicle. According to this article six people have been killed in three days by icicles falling from buildings. What a way to go.

*by the way, to the guy in the pic, don't get up too fast*

What Doesn't Kill Us Is Making Us Stronger



All right, folks, pack up the tents and roll up the cots: it's all over. There is one American more American than any other American and that American is Roseanne Conner. She stood up to Fred Thompson and organized the labor at Wellman Plastics, she burnt a motorcycle shop to the ground to collect the insurance money, she worked the counter at Rodbell's and steamed the loose meat at the Lanford Lunchbox and now she's endorsing a candidate. Well, she's not but Roseanne Barr is ALMOST Roseanne Conner and Roseanne Barr has broken her silence and endorsed a candidate:

When I fly in an airplane I want the pilot with the most experience, not the one who can inspire hope in me that I get to where I am going. When I pay my taxes, I want the person filing them to be experienced, not the new person who inspires hope in me that he can do the job. When I hire someone to fix my washing machine, I want the tried and true experienced person, not the one who inspires me to hope that he can fix it. When I go to the doctor I do not want to get the one who inspires hope in me that s/he can cure what's wrong, but the one who knows what the hell to do the minute I call. It's not really the job of a public servant to inspire, but to get the job that the people demand done. The democrats think that if they have hope and are inspired things will get better, but they actually won't. When Oprah makes her employees sign her fifty page non-disclosure statement, she doesn't "hope" they can't break it, she pays teams of experienced lawyers to MAKE SURE they can't break it, or be sued in an experienced court by an experienced judge. [source]

Sure, her analogies aren't the tightest and she clearly has some sort of grudge on Oprah, but Goddammit if this doesn't reaffirm that I've picked the best candidate in all this mess. Then again, maybe it's just that I love reruns.

The Dumbest Fucking Bitch of a Reason to Fucking Stab Someone I've Ever Seen

What a heated political season we find ourselves in!

"One is a supporter of Barack Obama, the other is a supporter of Hillary Clinton, and an argument of words turned bloody when one brother-in-law tried to choke the other and the victim then responded with a knife and stabbed his brother-in-law in the stomach.” [source]

I love this quote because the victim is the stabber, not the stabbee!

To lighten the mood, let's look at some pictures of funny SCIENCE FAIR PROJECTS!









And these aren't even the funniest ones! More here: [source]!

Fucking Ridiculous


As you all know I've fairly or unfairly bashed Hillary for her tactics over the past few weeks but now she's hit the bottom (if that was at all possible). As reported on Drudge, With a week to go until the Texas and Ohio primaries, stressed Clinton staffers circulated a photo over the weekend of a "dressed" Barack Obama. The photo, taken in 2006, shows the Democrat frontrunner fitted as a Somali Elder, during his visit to Wajir, a rural area in northeastern Kenya.

To play on American stereotypes and fears of Muslims in this way is despicable. This coupled with her campaign accusing him of being a Muslim and her staffers circulating a "Barack Obama is a Muslim Manchurian candidate" email has me wondering what sort of backlash this could have on the rest of her political future. For stuff like this she deserves to go down in flames. Guess this is what the death of a political dynasty looks like.

*Follow Up* I just got off the phone with a lady from the Clinton campaign and she completely dismissed my call, so I called the DNC to complain at which point I was told that there phone lines are burning up from irate people. Apparently I'm not the only one pissed off.

Surfing the Blogosphere

I'm sure you've all noticed the "blog toolbar" at the top of this page. Do any of you ever click "Next Blog?" Well, I have! I do it quite often actually. You can find some pretty nutty stuff out there. "Hold on to your hat!" As you can imagine, the blogs are as diverse as the people who make them. Worldwide, sucka!

One day I was lucky enough to come across Davidson's from Malaysia. I have enjoyed reading his cybernetic feedback on what a blog is supposed to contain. His contains death metal, a video titled "Suffication," musing on his ex-girlfriend, and pictures of colorful beverages. My words are in red. Back in January he wrote:

"My driver drop me at Mutiara Villa last night.
Then Jesther came out with a Mini Cooper.
She fetch us to gurney to have some Sotong... LOL Not quite LOL..., but then again? It is kinda hilarious, he he!

Then.. we went Sega to have some cocktail.
''Around The World'' was mine.. (green)
Taste like having chewing gum...
Papermint =) Is it just me or does Papermint sound kinda delicious?

We enjoy having...

This was my eyes one day ago o.o
This is my eyes now... -.- Clever! Words can draw a pictures! 8===D O:

Damn Tired


Guess what?

I Love Pierce

I Got 4 Ear Holes.

So What?

Not Enough...

Tommorow I'm Going To Pierce

My Lips

My Tongue

My Ear

I Need $ Money $

Badly

What To Do?

Earn It

Then?

Dreams Come True!" No truer words have ever been typed.

This is an intense individual that we're dealing with, folks. He lives on the other side of the world, quite remarkable to be able to read someone's thoughts like that. How bizarre that we've come into contact with Davidson's existence!

I wonder how many times people pressing "Next Blog" have ended up on ours?

The Shit Has Hit the Fan!


After a wonderful closing remark at the debate Thursday, where Hillary Clinton gave a warm, heartfelt statement that melted the heart of even a Hillary hater like myself, I thought that you know what, maybe she's going to finish out the rest of this campaign with class and elegance and civility. Well I guess I was wrong as she just went on a tirade in Ohio over some mailers the Obama camp has been mailing out for a few weeks. She compared Obama to Karl Rove and George Bush and said he was going to "shaft" the American people blasting him at the end with a finger pointing "Shame on you". Judging from the venom in her voice it looks like we're in for a brawl Tuesday night.

Going Extinct Near You: OTB


"Come on! Come on! YEEEEE-AAAAAHHHH! My horse won!
Ahhhh Hells ye-ah!"

Daddy, why you fucking me? It seems like you can't walk too far without running into one of these hell holes. The perception is they're full of drunks, but the NYT article doesn't really mention that.

Winter Wonderland

This weekend I had the opportunity to go on a Winter Wonderland getaway courtesy of a mutual friend, J9, in Roxbury, New York. Her family owns a cabin there, in the middle of the woods, and she invited 16 or so of her closet friends (Ryan, Todd, and me included). There were ski trails minutes away, so Hobby's Liberal Snowboard School of Logic was open and ready for business. To make a long story short, Todd emerged my shining student (the school had a 33% success rate that day). He started on the Bunny Slope, and before the end of the day he was on a black diamond! He had only been on the slopes one time before, but this was his first time snowboarding. I even witnessed him "Gleaming the Cube," a reference to a backside carve and scraping an open palm on the powder below. I was a proud teacher; he snowboarded hard, went fast, and wiped-out big.

About the Dumbest Fucking Attack I've Ever Seen


This 'plagiarism' attack is about the stupidest thing I've ever seen. Obama borrowed some lines from a close friend and campaign adviser Deval Patrick, so the Clinton camp saw this as a 'gotcha' moment, and has come out swinging. Now this wouldn't be that big a deal except this tactic once derailed Joe Biden's run at president, only difference is he borrowed the lines from some British politician without permission and he also borrowed some elements of his life story to adopt as his own so that one was a little worse I guess but either way it's just dumb. Now the Clinton camp has come out and said "Sen. Obama is running on the strength of his rhetoric and the strength of his promises and, as we have seen in the last couple of days, he's breaking his promises and his rhetoric isn't his own." Just a few days ago words were 'cheap' as Clinton said, but today they are apparently so important to them. So with that said I now present to you the counter argument, Mark Halperin of TIME (not to be confused with Morris Day and the Tyme) has noted six occasions where Hillary has stolen Obama's lines, SIX! And,,,now they've accused him of ripping off George Bush's theme song because Obama plays Brooks and Dunn's "Only in America" after his rallies. God, this is almost as bad as her recent 'we've had 18 debates with 2 more coming up in 15 days but Barack wont debate us' ad.

Personal Jesus



We are talking about the same beautiful man, the same beautiful prophet, the same divine person sent from heaven. In the Koran, it emphasizes maybe three main points: about the birth, about the fact that he was not the son of God, and then, that he was not crucified. The rest is [the same] Jesus ... the sermons, and the miracles, and the political situation.

An American Tragedy Waiting to Happen



...Mrs Keene began feeding the birds leftover fish 30 years ago after she noticed they struggled to catch prey in the minus 20ºC Arctic winters...

...And she has done such a good job she is now the only person in America allowed to feed them...

...At first, just a couple of the birds came to eat but now hundreds flock to the spot in Homer, Alaska – often squabbling over the freebies...

...She said: 'I'm not afraid of the eagles and they're not afraid of me. As long as I can still stand up and get about, I'll carry on feeding them as long as I can.'

Get away from those bald eagles, lady! They are not your friends! You will fall on the ice and the eagles will pick your bones clean! I have seen it before!
