I Got What America Needs Right Here

Sometimes I'm a little stupid, maybe, a little slow in the head, so I'm wondering if you can help me get something straight....

Letterman and Howard Stern

I have no link for this and maybe there is none, however, you guys should try and find the interview Letterman had with Stern tonight (1/12/08). Ridiculously funny to me. Perhaps it is due to the fact that I am a couple of miller lights into the evening but whatever. If you don't like it... go fuck yourself.

The term 'hero' is tossed around lightly these days...

but it is comforting to know that there still exist some truly magnificent individuals.

Hilarious!!

Cloverfield Is a Goddamn Godzilla Movie

Was the monster in the film inspired by H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu?

"What really happened was that during Mission Impossible 3, J.J. took his son to Japan for the premiere. While they were there, they visited a toy store in Tokyo. They saw shelf after shelf, row after row, of Godzilla toys. Just this huge toy store filled with toys. The image was really striking to J.J. He said, “Look at this. This is like a national monster.” He started thinking, “You know, we need our own national monster.” Obviously King Kong is kind of a national monster but not really in that way. That’s a great movie and he’s a legendary figure in film lore, but it’s not really the same thing. So the way that Godzilla was sort of a metaphor for the time, and for that place, the idea of creating a new monster for this time and place came about. It’s an original monster, and a monster that was inspired, really, by Godzilla."


Fuck.

Want to download Radiohead's Scotch Mist?

Cool blogspot neighbor that uploads rare B-Sides and live performances...I didn't check too far into their library, but it looked decent.

Here's a link to Radiohead's Scotch Mist, which can be downloaded as one mp3 or split into several tracks. Oh and it includes those cool poems

Boy, 11, Uses Toy Lightsaber to Defend Mom From Attacker

Maybe there is something to this "Force".

I'm getting fuckin' pumped.

Ever since Jon suggested that we do the Art Lobe, I've been getting pumped.
Way pumped.
So as my pumpitude increases, I've been looking all over the net for equipment - reading reviews, checking prices, getting gear boners, etc. - and I've found that if you're doing online shopping, campmor.com has excellent fuckin' prices. Click on the title of this post to go there.
Also, because experience says that planning a trip early can help things go more smoothly, lets try to get a head count on who wants in and when people are available (Copeland, this means you) so that we can plan gear buying, working out, and all that shit accordingly. It would be fucking incredible if we could get a sizable group together for a truly bad-ass hiking/camping experience.


P.S.: Jon, I was wrong - for this season anyway - North Face tents are bullshit. Terrible, terrible reviews. So far, looks like Mountain Hardware is the way to go.

Happy new year mother fuckers!

2008 - the year that sees the Cocks go 10-2, votes Dub finally out of office only to see the next schmuck get stuck with a war in Venezuela, and tells B to follow his life-long dream of being a castmember of Good Times On Ice - Float like a butterfly, sting like a mite, that's what we call Kid Dynomite!

More yoyo badassery

Though not as cool as two yoyos at once, freehand yoyo ("a weight (typically a casino die or small ball) is attached to the end of the yo-yo string that would otherwise be attached to the finger.")is pretty badass

"Tyler Severance nails the freehand (5A) world yoyo champion champion title with a technically challenge and exciting counterweight freestyle."

Battle at Kruger

The most epic battle you'll see today (I recommend turning down the sound... the running commentary by the tourists queahs it up).

The Dark Knight

Here's the latest trailer for The Dark Knight, the sequel to Batman Begins which was, arguably, the greatest batman flick ever. Right, right, Keaton and Nicholson, yeah, yeah, that shit was badass, no doubt. But if you've dug the Bale version of ol' Batman, this new one seems like it won't disappoint.

Carl on the Mitchell Report

Let he who hasn't injected the extract from a grizzly bear's pituitary gland straight into his bellybutton cast the first stone.

M4 Carbine performs "significantly worse" than contenders in a recent test.

The army's response? "Nah, we'll keep this one." The winner? This sci-fi badass.

As cool as this shit could possibly get...

Paul's Tea Party

Ron Paul has the largest fundraising day in political history. Yesterday's $6,000,000 haul puts his campaign at over $18,000,000 in donations for the fourth-quarter of the year (with two weeks remaining).

You've got a handycam and some willing participants, why the hell not?

Telecom Immunity Update

Harry Reid has announced that he will be moving the Senate Intelligence Committee's version of the FISA bill to the floor of the Senate. This bill contains provisions for immunity for telecommunications companies that aided the government in warrantless surveillance. Reid has acted in this manner despite a hold placed on the bill by Senator Chris Dodd - a somewhat unprecedented move.

Fuck Harry Reid.

Cool posts, Chris

Glad to see that this thing still generates some interest. Here's a question for everyone: aside from OJ and whiskey, what should a guy do to get over the flu? I've heard about drugs you can take, but they appear to be prescription only.

In case you didn't know already...


So yeah, deal with that.

Jon inspired me. Kinda.

Only kinda 'cause I'd estimate that I'm thinking about Radiohead for at least 6 hours a day. For real though, this shit rocks. Mad energy. Dig the 90's style.

Infamy

On the morning of December 7th, 1941, the Imperial Japanese Navy attacked the US Pacific Fleet stationed at Pearl Harbor. They rolled 1's and 2's, but forgot to bring a transport with dudes, and so missed out on that solid 1 IPC gain.

Pretty much illegal as fuck

Yeah - check out the band list - there's some really good stuff there. I know you all will only use the download links to replace CDs that you've already purchased but simply misplaced. Fuckin' - look at the Gilmore disc -it's the one from the show I was talking about a couple weeks ago. Oh, and B - there's a Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum CD there so you can replace the one you "lost."
