Knowing is half the battle (inside joke)

Now you know why I call that bitch grilled cheese...

White Zombie

White Zombie's record company is being nice enough to send me a copy of the new box set. I've always liked their videos..




I love the sticker on her bass that says "DROP DEAD"

Who is more soothing?

Who's voice is more soothing?



Delilah

OR...



Bob Ross?

Right now my money is on Delilah...

douchebag of the week

Faith Hill, for that utterly horrendous new Christmas song "A Baby Changes Everything"

This morning

Imagine this model. As a male. 100 pounds overweight. With a burly beard. But wearing basically the same clothes. That's what I saw when I heard a knock at my office door and looked over. I opened the door.
"can I help you?"
"do your windows need cleaning?"
"uh. no."
"ok. thanks for your time"

and off Denim Santa went in search of windows that need a bit of elbow grease...

The wonders of New York

There is a hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint by my office. Run completely by Koreans. it's called "Fresh Taco Express". When you call them they answer "Hot Taco Express, can I help you?". It leaves one to wonder.. Has this ever caused confusion?

Safety razor

Oddly enough, this doesn't make me want to buy a razor..

boo!

Popsicle

Although it might not be as funny in the retelling, it was pretty funny while it was happening. Here is a conversation I had with Miss Alex Fri night.

"Hey Alex you know what we should have now?"
"What?"
"A popsicle"
"I'm too full"
"Dude, it's frozen liquid"
a split second of recognition
then from both of us:
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
"yeah let's have a popsicle"

Kind of like that move "Terminal"...

only different..

A photo that changed the world

Breaker Boys1910

What Charles Dickens did with words for the underage toilers of London, Lewis Hine did with photographs for the youthful laborers in the United States. In 1908 the National Child Labor Committee was already campaigning to put the nation’s two million young workers back in school when the group hired Hine. The Wisconsin native traveled to half the states, capturing images of children working in mines, mills and on the streets. Here he has photographed “breaker boys,” whose job was to separate coal from slate, in South Pittston, Pa. Once again, pictures swayed the public in a way cold statistics had not, and the country enacted laws banning child labor.

What's not to love?

Is this man the devil?

If not he's got to be a high ranking Demon.. This is David Foster. A music producer.. and.. well I'll just let these words speak for themselves..

"Uber songwriter-producer and 15-time Grammy winner David Foster assembled a stunning collection of artists in Las Vegas last spring for a spectacular night, which honored his hugely successful four-decade career. The result is “Hit Man: David Foster and Friends” the DVD/CD which is scheduled for release on November 11th on 143/Reprise Records. With stand-out performances by Andrea Bocelli, Michael Bublé, Josh Groban, Celine Dion, Katharine McPhee, Blake Shelton, Kenny G, Peter Cetera, Brian McKnight and Oprah discovery Charice amongst others, Foster shines in the role of host and ring-master as well as keyboard accompanist to the slew of stars.

“Hit Man: David Foster and Friends” will air as part of the “Great Performances” Series on PBS stations around the country in December. In addition, the eagerly awaited David Foster autobiography “Hit Man: Forty Years Making Music, Topping the Charts and Winning Grammies” is scheduled for a November 11th release on Pocket Books."


let me repeat that list of artists in case you didn't get it the first time:
Andrea Bocelli, Michael Bublé, Josh Groban, Celine Dion, Katharine McPhee, Blake Shelton, Kenny G, Peter Cetera

Peter Cetera?
Kenny G?
Celine Dion?
Michael fuckin' Bublé?
REALLY?

I guess Michael Bolton was busy that night?

This could quite possibly be the worst group of "musicians" ever assembled...

The block

Yesterday Fonzie posted this. I thought I'd list a few of my favorite memories of "the block" (in no particular order)

falling asleep in the parking lot, looking at the stars

taking the abandoned file cabinet

Gloria puking in the plastic bag even though she was off the bus

the incident with the ceramic dog

firetruck BBQ

backyard lap dances

cops kicking us off Sean's porch

going to the used paperback shop the day it was closing and getting a bag of books for $5

all the mad dashes to catch the 11:00 PM bus into the city

horrendous Christmas

Thanksgiving blasting Glass Tiger and eating til we almost died

Exorcist Halloween

A Clockwork Orange Halloween

jumping the gate into the yard for clandestine games of Uno

screaming Toto's "Africa" at the top of our lungs

sauce jar full of whiskey

Crowded House rainy days

Things I learned at the AC DC concert part 3

Angus Young plays a mean one handed guitar solo. And yes friends, he's not getting ANY younger..

Things I learned at the AC DC concert part 2

Classic rock fans can't dance. At all. Now, granted, AC DC isn't dance music. BUT songs like "You Shook Me All Nigh Long" and "Back In Black" would not have been hits if there wasn't at least a modicum of rhythmic ass shaking implied. However, the audience couldn't find a beat to gyrate to if Buddy Rich was hammering out a cadence on their heads.

Things I learned at the AC DC concert part 1

Brian Johnson reads lyrics from a teleprompter..

Who knew?

A Flock Of Seagulls had enough material for a "best of"?

A show..

gone way to soon.

A photo that changed the world

Cuban Missile Crisis 1962

This photograph. taken on November 10, 1962 (from less than 500 ft. altitude at a speed of 713 mph). Clearly shown are Soviet-built SA-2 surface-to-air missiles (SAMs) in place at launch sites. It is claimed that this was President Kennedy's favorite photo of the installations, and was mounted in the oval office. He used this photo to demonstrate the nature of the threat that the offensive weapons provided. The pattern of dots surrounding the sites are claimed to be camouflage nets..
