Here it is... The follow up to Skanky Floozies, and this time it's the Fellas turn to sing about doing it... I'd say about 90% New Jack Swing, Teddy Riley would be proud! Download it! "Steady Humpin"
(The only good thing about working nights this week, is that I can finally post this nonsense! It's been done for 2 months...)
Jeff Koons has some new sculptures in the roof top garden at the Met in NY. I want to go and check them out. The Winnie the Pooh one and the Candy Heart one are so-so, but I love these balloon sculptures.
I'm no tree hugger, as you probably know. But even i know we need to take better care of the nature around us. Enjoy this time-lapse video of nature doing its thing in honor of Earth Day.
This saturday, at one of the finest pubs in Delaware County, Disposable Heroes will be performing live for our listening pleasure. I have yet to see this band play, but I have been told by a friend at work that these guys are very good at what they do. The guy I work with is an old hammer, has seen Metallica live in their heyday, and currently drives a late 80's Firebird with T-Tops. If I can't trust a guy like him to give me good information about a metal band, who can I trust? FYI, they are playing at Tom&Jerry's, which is located in Ridley Park, home to the best Hammers in our region, and my buddy tells me it is not uncommon to see some of these guys/Hammers and gals/Nails show up in uniform.
I have a feeling this could be highly entertaining on all levels.
Who wants in?
ed. note: All their Metallica selections are from Kill Em All, Ride the Lightning, Master of Puppets, and And Justice For All..., none of that new trash. They also play a couple songs from Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Pantera, Slayer, Anthrax, etc...
AMAZING! This guy turned his nintendo wii into the trippiest thing ever. Why isnt all TV like this!?
He has some other videos where he turns the Wii into a whiteboard, and a fingertip-mouse type thing just like in that movie Minority Report. Its really awesome.
If the Lincoln Presidential debates were run by ABC news:
LINCOLN: In my opinion, slavery will not cease, until a crisis shall have been reached and passed. "A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe this government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free. STEPHANOPOULOS: Excuse me, did an Elijah H. Johnson attend your church?
LINCOLN: When I was a boy in Illinois forty years ago, yes. I think he was a deacon.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Are you aware that he regularly called Kentucky “a land of swine and whores”?
LINCOLN: Sounds right -- his ex-wife was from Kentucky.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Why did you remain in the church after hearing those statements?
LINCOLN: I was eight.
DOUGLAS: This is an important question George -- it's an issue that certainly will be raised in the fall.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Do you denounce him?
LINCOLN: I’d like to get back to the divided house if I may.
This is an amusing and endearing promo put on by the Discover Channel for Earth Day (Tuesday). Don't forget to do something good for ma' earth on tuesday, and what ever that good thing is, do it every day there after.
Mr. Hawking's part is my personal favorite, even if his books do give me a headache.
Apparently Philly's big Spring Cleaning was a huge success.
The Cleanup was the largest single day, citywide clean-up event on record in the United States.
* 2.56 million pounds of trash were collected * Estimated 15,000 volunteers * 186 abandoned cars removed from the streets * 65,600 biodegradable paper trash bags were used * 14,050 biodegradable paper recycling bags were used * 17, 269 pairs of gloves * 9,804 brooms
Who would have guessed that when you remove Garfield from the Garfield comic strips, the result is an even better comic about schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and the empty desperation of modern life? Friends, meet Jon Arbuckle. Let’s laugh and learn with him on a journey deep into the tortured mind of an isolated young everyman as he fights a losing battle against loneliness in a quiet American suburb.
Buster Martin is one of them most amazing humans ever.
First of all, he is 101 years old. Keep that in mind while reading the list of his other accomplishments:
-Father of 17 children -Englands oldest worker (He cleans vans) -Refused to take the day off on his 100th birthday -Last year he called in sick. His first time in 90 years. -He is in a band called The Zimmers. They reached #28 on the UK singles chart in May with a cover of The Who's "My Generation". The combined age of the entire band is over 3,000 years old. -Was on the local news in 2007 for fending off an attack by some youth. "I hit one in the groin and kicked another one".
But perhaps his greatest accomplishment was running in the 2008 London Marathon, finishing in just over 7 hours! He ran his first marathon when he was 100 years old! His motivation was to show that old people could still do stuff.
The craziest part is his training routine. He doesnt drink water. Instead he goes to his local pub and drinks beer and smokes cigarettes. HE DRINKS 14 PINTS OF BEER AND SMOKES 14 CIGARETTES A DAY!!
Its a 2-day workshop in West Chester Pa. Its completely serious. They provide all of the materials. Afterward everyone is encouraged to wear their suites and crash a high society soiree. Im dead serious. I think it sounds like a lot of fun. Whos with me?!!!
