Why did our beautiful blog have to die?

It was so young.

Let us examine the possibilities:

1. There is nothing interesting left in the world for us to talk about/make fun of.

This is actually a possibility. What fun stuff has happened recently? A writer's strike? Yawn. I am Beowulf? I AM BEOWULF! Lauren and Heidi showdown Part 1? Actually that was pretty good we should be blogging about The Hills.

2. We're all way too busy to write meaningless shit on the interwebs.

I don't know about the other jackasses on here, but my day to day consists of getting up, wishing I had a full-time job instead of one rent paying gig a month, listening to music, playing Halo, listening to music while playing Halo and um.. sleeping. I think I could squeeze this in, better check the blackberry.

3. We're lazy stoners.

I'm bored with this list.

Oh Hello Halloween

Trixie (Paula Malcomson) is awesome.

Fallout 3 Contest

This is one contest that I need to be a part of. Pretty sure it will involve some awesome and possibly some blood, but winning would be worth it. Who even cares about the prizes? We get to design some steampunk powers!

Beat Konducta In India

So Madlib the most amazing hip-hop producer um.. ever recently (August) released this Indian themed instrumental beats record that is fan-fucking-tastic and I can't stop listening to it. Crazy sitars and bad 70s Bollywood singing over heavy ass beats? Count me down homie.

This blog seems to be missing something...

Hmm... what could it be?











Ah, that's better.

Babe: A Pig in Metropolis?

George Miller ("Babe", "Happy Feet") is going to direct the Justice League movie that is in pre-production. Is anyone else weirded out by this choice? Will there be more religion-bashing continued from "Happy Feet" where Aquaman takes on the Catholic church for their stance on homosexuals? I can't wait for the Green Lantern to punch the Pope. Rock? I think so.

'The Hills' Stealing From 'The Wedding Singer'?

I swear to God Spencer was stealing lines from the douche-y fiance of Drew Barrymore in the movie while they were registering gifts at Crate & Barrel or wherever. Can you imagine Spencer dressed up as Don Johnson from Miami Vice with that disgusting facial hair he grows?

Here's to hoping for a Billy Idol cameo in the season finale. Viva the scripted drama!

Jack Bauer Arrested?

Apparently Jack Bauer was busted for driving under the influence (of alcohol, not awesome.) How many officers did it take to get Mr. Bauer to jail? My guess is that they called in the National Guard.

The Teachings of Ahmadinejad

Apparently Iran doesn't have homosexuals. Who'da thunk it?

Deadwood, Part 1

1) Is there an overall porn movie plot that drives the series or is the show an overlay of porn movie plots?

2) The ideas that spawn off from the show (iPods that are hooked up to nanomachines in your brain that stream music based on thought processing, also one feature that could be added is that it posts your thoughts to a blog and saves them to see if you want to publish them.) are amazing.


To Be Continued...

Monsters HD

My parents have a channel dedicated solely to showing monster movies (Friday The 13th is on right now) in high definition. My question to everyone is whether this really is the greatest development that has been conceived by man? Is this the pinnacle of technology? Also, this message is dedicated to the wonderful people at the Dish Network for putting this channel in their lineup.

George Bush is scared of horses.

So Vicente Fox used to be G. Dub's south of the border best buddy, well now he's releasing a book that surprisingly (okay not at all) paints Bush as no good city-folk. Wowza:

Vicente Fox, the former president of Mexico, derided his political friend
as a "windshield cowboy" – a cowboy who prefers to drive – and "the cockiest guy
I have ever met in my life".

He recalled a meeting in Mexico shortly after both
men had been elected when Mr Fox offered Mr Bush a ride on a "big palomino"
horse.

Mr Fox, who left office in December, recalled Mr Bush "backing away" from
the animal. ''

A horse lover can always tell when others don't share our
passion," he said, according to the Washington Post.

Mr Bush has spoken of his fondness for shooting doves and cutting brush on his Crawford ranch in Texas, which he bought in 1999. The property reportedly has no horses and only five cattle.

Survivor China: Sticky Rice Adventure Time
