Holiday Road!

What do you do in your spare time? Probably nothing as cool as this guy who took a Ford LTD Country Squire wagon and recreated the infamous Wagon Queen Family Truckster. I don't know about you, but i can't get "Holiday Road" out of my head.








I think you're all fucked in the head. We're ten hours from the fucking fun park and you want to bail out. Well I'll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation. It's a quest. It's a quest for fun. I'm gonna have fun and you're gonna have fun. We're all gonna have so much fucking fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our godamn smiles. You'll be whistling 'Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah' out of you're assholes! I gotta be crazy! I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy Shit!

BBBBBBQ Update #3

Hello Pals,

Today I received the following email from Mr. Patrick Kelley:

"are we having a bbbbbbbbq?"

Why No, Patrick, we are not having a bbbbbbbbq, we are having a BBBBBBQ. Your bbq has 2 extra b's in it, which i assume stand for bogus and bad time. Apparently Patrick didnt read any of my previous emails, which is odd, since he replied to one.
So, since some of you could not understand my writing, let me reiterate.
YES, WE ARE HAVING A BBBBBBQ. It will be on June 21st, 2008. At Jon's house. Sheeeesh....

Ive been working on scheduling and event planning and so far it looks something like this:

10am- Registration and Meet-n-Greet, followed by a continental breakfast
11am- Commencement Speech by Former Mayor Kurt Schmoke
11am- "The Tapping of the Keg Ceremony" (similar to the the first pitch in baseball) featuring Sisqo
12pm- Grillin', Eatin', Drinkin' (this will continue throughout the day)
1pm- The lighting of the first Blunt (sponsored by M&T bank)
2pm- Jon Waters will be reciting passages from Edgar Alan Poe's "The Raven"
3pm- The cast of Hairspray will be making a short appearance, and will perform a scene from their Tony Award winning play.
4pm- The lighting of the second Blunt
5pm- The lighting of the third Blunt
7pm- Ray Lewis face-painting and craft table hour
8pm- The running of the rats
9pm- Potato Sack Races (sponsored by UTZ crab chips)
10pm- Frank Zappa will be on the mainstage playing a cover of "Cotton Eye Joe"
11pm- "Meet the O's" featuring Larry Sheets and Joe Orsulak
12pm- The Natty Boh Power Hour

As you can see, we have quite a day planned, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. Make sure you get there early, because parking will be limited. Also you may want to bring blankets and/or lawn chairs.

Have you ever been to the HFStival? Lollapalooza? Oz-Fest? The Warped Tour? Woodstock? Burning Man? Well, this is going to be exactly like none of those.

PSYCHTITUDE!!!

New iphone today...

First pics looks dope:






Not working today so I'm gonna hit the nerd sites that are covering Steve Jobby Jobs unveiling the new iphone. My cell phone is literally falling apart and I've been eyeing one of the mamajammas since they first came out.
Good things come to those who wait however, the internets have been telling me that rebates from the phone companies are gonna slash the price down to $200. Rumored improvements include 3g(faster internets), video calling(future shit), and GPS(where am I?). Oh and I heard it's black which I like waaay better... I'll post some pics later or go to gizmodo or one of the other nerd sites where they are blogging live! Aka nerds to the extreme!

Snacks/Barney From Simpsons Dream

A fella in Brooklyn was locked overnight in a bar. This really seems like it could be Snacks some day, if he works hard enough.

http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/09/nyregion/09bar.html?_r=1&ref=nyregion&oref=slogin

The bar emptied. Ms. Misagal flipped off the light in one of the bar’s two bathrooms, reached for the doorknob of the second bathroom and found it locked. “Curious,” she thought. Seeing no light coming from the bathroom, and hearing not a peep, she figured that the other bar worker had accidentally locked it behind him. Then her car service showed up and honked. Ms. Misagal went outside. The other worker pulled down the security gate and padlocked it from the outside.

They both left.

A few moments later, Mr. Hausmann opened the bathroom door. That is when he realized he was locked in the bar.

“The lights are off in the bar, and the chairs are up. And I wondered, ‘Where did everybody go?’ ” Mr. Hausmann said.

When in Mexico, wear a helmet!!!!!!!!!!


I saw this picture in the newspaper the other day, and it is so insane. I literally stared at it for 15 minutes cause there is so much shit going on. Bodies flying everywhere, bikes flying everywhere, what the fuck? the guy in the yellow jersey is like 8-9 ft high, and he's completely parallel to the ground, that couldn't have ended well. The one guy is upside down with his head right by the rear wheel on the drivers side, and a couple of those bikes look to be 10-12 ft. in the air. I'm sure they came crashing down on somebody. ENJOY!


MONTERREY, Mexico (AP) -- A car plowed into a weekend bike race along a highway near the U.S.-Mexico border, killing one and injuring 10 others, police said.


A car plows into a crowd of bicyclists participating in a race on a highway near the U.S.-Mexico border.

The 28-year-old driver was apparently drunk and fell asleep when he crashed into the race, said police investigator Jose Alfredo Rodriguez.

A photograph taken by a city official showed bicyclists and equipment being hurled high into the air by the collision.

Rodriguez said Juan Campos was charged with killing Alejandro Alvarez, 37, of Monterrey.

Authorities said the wreck happened 15 minutes into the 34-kilometer (21 mile) race Sunday along a highway between Playa Bagdad and Matamoros, across from Brownsville, Texas.

Epic

Watch as this guy snaps!
Pay attention at the start, when he chucks his computer monitor and totally takes out the chick in the next cubicle... WTF!!

Hey Everyone

Last summer Richie somehow decided that I was trying to go on as many blind dates as possible. I'm not sure how he got that idea but I decided it was a good one and I told him to set me up on one. He did and that was my one and only blind date last summer. I've decided that this summer I have to go on at least one more blind date than last year. So, if you know any single young ladies set it up!

Hey Aodh

tonight i was sitting trying to think of some cd's to download. i thought maybe i'll download some indie rock. i thought about your gay ass listening to all of that indie rock and i thought, hey you'd probably like this.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia




"Rob McElhenney from FX's It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia will shoot
exteriors for next season starting June 4. I hear that one plot has
the guys trying to buy the Philadelphia Soul football team - sure,
like Jon Bon Jovi and Craig Spencer would sell - and that, for an
unrelated scene, Eagles players will be part of a June 6
late-afternoon shoot in Center City that will be open to the public.
Details are being worked out."



Thanks Rachel!!!

BBBBBBQ Update #2

Yes, another one....

And theyre going to keep coming until June 21st.

I want everyones excitement levels at 11. Remember when it was the first day of the Harvest Festival, and your mom gave you 5 bucks so you could go into the haunted house, and in the darkness Annie Butlers boob rubbed up against your little arm, and you were SO PSYCHED!! No...hmmm...just me i guess, but thats the level of PSYCHTITUDE I want you to have. never heard of psychtitude? well get familiar, i just made it up, its a combo of psyched and attitude, yeah i can just make up words like that, no big deal.

Today I received a letter. An actual, physical, paper letter, hand delivered by a small asian boy, and sealed in wax. Inside this letter, was a handwritten RSVP, from none other than Petey Pablo himself. No, not the washed up rapper, but Peter "the rocket" Clemens. Peter is currently in Japan drinking Saki, getting robots to do his chores, and boinking Geishas on piles of Yen. Some would say he is living the good life. But Peter would say, "There is only one good life, The BBBBBBQ you must seek." or maybe that is what Yoda would say. Peter will be cutting his luxurious vacation short, and will be flying back on his private jet, just in time for the Bx6Q. Thats DEDICATION!

Peter has a perfect attendance record at the BBQ and there is nothing in this world, not even the most choicest amounts of asian vaginas, that would stop him from coming. (pun intended).

Also, a few folks from Philly think they might fly down for the fesitivities (my illiteriation game is motherfucking tiz-ight). Philly has a reputation as a hard BBQing town and quite frankly, we have a lot of living up to do if we are going to try and compete with Grilladelphia. But what we lack in gigantic rooftop decks, perfectly seasoned chicken legs, and state-of-the-art Grillmasters, we can more than make up for in cheap booze. Drink a 30 pack of Natty Boh and tell me if you feel like arguing about the merits of charcoal grills versus wood chip.

Didnt think so, here hit this blunt....

SO, Annas coming from Serbia, Peter is coming from Japan. Honestly, if you live in the US of A, you really have no excuse not to be at this thing.

LETS MAKE IT A NIGHT YOU WILL NEVER FORGET...OR REMEMBER!!!!!!!!

Casu marzu


I enjoy cheese; Italian cheeses are particularly appealing to me. Asiago, Ricotta, Fontina, Mozzarella, they all have a distinct taste, aroma, consistency. They are delicious with a variety of foods from meats to fruits; with wine or beer.

There is however one Italian cheese that I will not eat. Casu marzu (literally rotten cheese), a cheese from the island of Sardinia. It is a sheep's milk cheese, which in itself is a non-issue; after all ricotta is also from sheep's milk. The process of making this cheese is where I lose interest. The cheese is laid out in the Mediterranean sun for a few days and not until it is completely crawling with maggots, it is ready to eat.

There is nothing good about this cheese. Some of the risks include: decomposition advancing to a toxic state and the risk of enteric myiasis: intestinal larval infection. Piophila casei larvae can pass through the stomach alive (human stomach acids do not usually kill them) and take up residency for some period of time in the intestines, where they can cause serious lesions as they attempt to bore through the intestinal walls. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, and bloody diarrhea. Because of these dangers this cheese was not even legal until a few years ago when they began using raised, not wild, flies.

So how did they know when casu marzu had gone bad? When the maggots were dead. Once the cheese decays to the point that it kills the onboard entomology experiment it has become too toxic for human consumption.

I bet you won't find this one at DiBruno Bros.

BBBBBBQ Update!

Hello Friends,

It is with great pleasure that i announce that Anna M. will be gracing us with her beautiful presence at the 3rd annual BBBBBBQ.

As many of you know, she has been living in Serbia studying for god knows what for the last bajillion years, but she is taking time off from her busy schedule to FLY FROM MOTHERFUCKING SERBIA to come to the Bx6Q. NOW THATS THE KIND OF DEDICATION THAT THIS PARTY NEEDS!!!!! Thanks for setting the bar very high Anna! The fact that her sister is getting married the previous day is completely coincidence and i personally think that if the BBQ was not the same weekend she would have missed this precious moment (The BBBBBBQ is a uniter, not a divider).

And I would also like to add that Anna has a perfect attendance record for the BBBBBBQ. Step your game up people.

Also making an appearance will be none other than the Master Feef himself, Kyle Quarters. Kyle is making the trek from NYC, and plans to bring his A-game of fun with him. Many of you have not seen Kyle since the great Zietlow pool party of 1996 so this will truly be a joyous occasion. One word of caution to the ladies that will be in attendance, DO NOT get caught making out with another dude on Kyle's watch. you do not want to know what will happen.

Now if we can only get Peter "the rocket" Clemens to first, return an email, and second, make the long hard journey from Silver Spring, Maryland, we may have our largest BBBBBBQ turnout ever.

Remember, there will only be 10 shitty t-shirts to give away, and they are strictly first come first serve.

Also, as an added incentive, i will be buying a drink for anyone who does not see a rat.
(Google Image search "Baltimore Rat"! That thing is the size of my dog!)

To all who have RSVP'd so far, i salute you. Gracias. Your unbridled enthusiasm will be rewarded on June 21st.

LETS KICK IT UP A NOTCH!!!
