was crap.

I had hopes for this movie. But alas it was Hollywood tripe drivel.
I got sick of seeing that moon faced girl playing his daughter.
I got sick of a lot of things.

I read a review that this was Steve Carell's best performance to date. No, that was Little Miss Sunshine.

Any thoughts on this film.













Oh, btw... it was almost as bad as Step Mom, if that can be possible.

It's a triple header...

Dead Meadow
Built to Spill
Pelican

All equally super! (Except BTS was uncomfortably packed)

Have you caught any of these gems lately?

I just can't get over how intoxicating this album is.

As brilliant as their past albums are, they come out with this and I'm like... THOSE BASTARDS DID IT AGAIN!!!

If Radiohead make music well into their 50's, I wouldn't be surprised.
They just can't stop.


So who liked it, loved it, or panned it?

Yes, I randomly look up things like mad bulls...
and Asian midget kick boxing.





This is just insane, though.

And I will not support this trite drivel.
Hey look it's MMA meets Fast and Furious!!

This reflects so poorly on MMA.
Well we all knew Hollywood would gobble up and spit out this putrid dish sooner or later.




ghey.
This movie needs a ground-n-pound before it even hits the theaters.

Just curious. I wouldn't think they would but I could be wrong.
Do any of you political pundits have an opinion?

Here's my top 4. Sorry Couldn't pull a top 5 out of my butt to save my life.

I invite you to post your picks of 07. Please limit 3 - 5. That way we don't get too cluttered and you'll have a better chance of holding peoples attention span.


Here we go!
1. I posted about this a while back but it's simply my favorite of 07 and quite possibly in my top 5 of all time.
It helps to remind me that music is still great and videos are still a viable means of artistic expression.



2. LED's! Gotta' love'm.
All props to Kayce for redirecting my attention to these veterans. I saw them in passing (on videos) and didn't realize what I was missing.
I LOVE a perpetual groove that I can just sink balls deep into.



3. Sorry, Battles again. I can't help it. I love this vid.
I want a red sweater, too!



4. This was just so right in so many ways.




Well, those are my picks for 07.
So join in. It'll be fun!

Well, home grown couldn't pull it off, but they did better than I expected at 31 - 20. I predicted 34 - 7.

Nice season ender, though: Pittsburgh twice... in Pittsburgh.

Anyway, a friend of mine wanted me to paint her face for the Jag game last week. Turns out a local DJ was at the sports joint we went to and loved it.
So we exchange numbers. Lo and behold, he calls me and wants me to show up for the local news show on Saturday morning to paint his face this morning. It was fun!

Here's some samples:
The one that got the ball rolling


#2 (from tonight)


DJ from this morning at News station


my lil'est




I'm hoping this turns out to be something. Who knows, right?




Anyone else catch the game?

We went out the other night and the VJ was playing some great videos. This was the highlight for me:




This is sooooo beautiful, fitting haunting and just plain great to see with so many bad videos out there.

It's E.T. meets the Shining.
Gotta' love animal masks!

All about me
What if I send it in and they don't like it? What if they say I'm no good?
What if they say " Get out of here, kid. You got no future."?
I mean, I just don't think I can take that kind of rejection.




Today's feature:

just a little bit.

I've only wanted to do this to just about... well...
anyone I've ever worked with.

"Many people and cultures view t-shirts as a simple piece of apparel that can be acquired cheaply and worn in casual situations. For white people, it’s never that easy. The t-shirt is one of the most complex and expressive items in their entire wardrobe.

Your choice of casualwear says a lot about you, and there are stringent rules and hierarchies associated with T-shirts that you must know before venturing into any white-dominated social situations.

T-shirts fall into three categories: vintage, new, and unacceptable, with the latter category compromising the bulk of the world’s supply. Within each category lies another, more precise subset of rules and rankings. Make no mistake, this is complicated.

The most prized t-shirt category is vintage. As shown earlier, white people need authenticity like they need oxygen and to have an original vintage t-shirt from the 1970s or 1980s is a very powerful social status symbol. The ideal shirt will have a funny logo, a year attached to it, and will be as thin as rice paper. In the event that two white people have shirts that meet this criteria, the superior ranking is given to the person who paid the least for the shirt. Acquiring a shirt at a vintage clothing store is seen as less respectable than sorting through racks at the Goodwill.

The second category of t-shirt is new and there really are only two options. The first is American Apparel, a company that constantly reminds you it is based in downtown Los Angeles. They are considered an acceptable white company since they produce things that are very simple, but also very expensive. The second acceptable new shirt is Threadless. This Chicago-based company produces artistic and funny t-shirts that are acceptable for concerts, Whole Foods and 80s night. White people like these shirts so much because they are designed by white people, for white people. Sort of like a white FUBU.

Finally, and perhaps the most important to be aware of, is the unacceptable category of t-shirts. There are a few simple rules to follow in order to avoid wearing the wrong t-shirt. First, if it’s made of a stiff, thick cotton, throw it in the garbage immediately. White people t-shirts must be made of the softest, finest organic cotton. This is law. Unless it is vintage, the shirt cannot be made in a foreign country (unless you can certify its labor conditions). The shirt cannot contain a current sports logo. Shirts with sports logos are acceptable, but they must contain a logo that hasn’t been used in 15 years. Last and not least, it cannot be baggy. Your t-shirt must be tight-fitting for both style and mating purposes.

It is also imperative to understand that faux vintage shirts (”Getting Lucky in Kentucky”) are completely unacceptable. They are beloved by the wrong kind of white people, and must be avoided at all costs.

This information is best applied when you are planning on attending a social gathering. Your t-shirt says a lot about you, and if it’s the right kind of shirt it will set white people at ease. Also, asking a white person “where did you get that shirt?” will allow them to tell you a detailed story about how they acquired it. This will enable them to assert why their shirt has a higher ranking than yours and they won’t view you as a threat.

Never underestimate the importance of t-shirts to white culture. It is an essential tool in determining the social rank, desirability, and value of a white person."
