Photo(shop) of the day

How great would a pair of shoes like these be?

Drew would love'em!!!

Best Buy dancing

this guy is honestly enjoying himself. It is hilarious but completely honest. I'm sure a person like this won't care that he is the laughing stock of the internet today. Now if only I could figure out how to embed this video into an atom stream.

Bush to America

This is an amazing parody on what Bush is doing to the US.

The Asian Squat

Despite the title of this post this is actually a clean (read SFW) video about the way that people of Asian decent squat. My g/f always makes fun of me because I squat this way. Seeing this video cracked me up.
Even though this is a total piss-take it is actually true. I can sit like this for 25 minutes easily, the key is keeping your feet flat.



Try it, you'll see that it is all about relaxing.

Graffiti

I know I have been slacking on my post-per-day but I have been busy as you probably assume. 
I have been thinking about changing the 'Random' quote at the top to something like 'blogging for the sake of it' b/c honestly I just blog so people can see the funny/weird/political/whatever stuff that I find on the 'internets'. 
For your viewing pleasure today we have a clip that is just under 2 minutes long from the ol'stand-by, YouTube.com.  It is a scene from the Madrid Metro where a group (notice i didn't say gang) of about 10 people bombing a 3 train cars in less then a minute and a half.  Let me fess up foremost and say that I love graffiti.  I used to dabble a little when I was younger but now can't really take the risk.  Having been to Amsterdam a couple of times I can say that they have a great way of managing graffiti.  They employ artists to paint scaffolding, abandon buildings, and other unsightly places around the city.  It encourages artist talent and takes the illegal part of it out.  Graffiti artist respect eachothers' art and will not deface it.  It is a great way for city kids to make some extra cash as well.  Check out the vid.

Quote du jour

Someone sent me an email today with a large list of British quotes. I found some of them to be a bit boring but this one made me chuckle.


"The record companies would have us believe that the money made by CD pirates goes to fund the drug industry. But the money rock stars make from legal record sales ends up in exactly the same place. When they stop breaking the law, so will I."


-P Boddington, Ringway

Halloween

In the spirit of halloween I came across this:



Isn't it scary how apetising that appears. That is one big ass burger!



I miss halloween. In England it isn't popular at all. People say that it is a typical 'American' spend all your money on crap holiday. I say "No! That's Christmas". Halloween is the only day of the year dressing like hooker is public is acceptable (and legal).



Come on ladies I know you agree.

"Don't be a pirate . . .

or a douche" says Jack Black

I can't help to agree, I don't steal music. I do the same thing with music that I did 10 years ago. I share it not hoard it. I do have a lot of music and since I had about 200 cds stolen I only have the digtal copies of them left.

Now for the f'ed up part. According to the RIAA since my CDs were stolen I no longer 'own' the music that I have backed up on my computer. You know what I say? Well suffice to say that I will not be repeating it here b/c it would probably offend, well, everyone. Now enjoy the clip! More to post today. I'm in a mood.

T-shirt of the day

I came across this t-shirt today and lost it. There nothing better than a truly tasteess joke, especially on a shirt. I think the fact that he is sitting in front of a trailer is the iceing on the cake. This is just true class. Please if anyone knows where to get a shirt like this please let me know. I would love to have it framed

Morris cat was killed by a Morris (maybe)

The poor Morris family lost their cat today. A 4 wheeled monster came and ran him (her?) over. I believe that Si had the unfortunate experience of dealing with two histerical females and his son that probably didn't get it. Okay, enough wth the depressing. . .

I think that Si is more of a guy than most and wasn't very as upset. See his reaction below:



Probably one of the funnier things I have read in a while. Now if only explaining cat heaven to a 7 year old was easy. . .

RIP kitty!

Cock of the walk!

Amazingly politically incorrect advert from the 60's. The song is hella catchy though.

Down with DRM

Seems dumb but ahh it is for a good cause IMHO. Check out the winning video in the 'Down with DRM' contest.

Vote 4 me!

So I've been thinking about how to stop getting more out of my photography (habit) and decided to enter a couple of photos that I really like in contests and the like. This is the first one. I know that a lot of people aren't going to get this photo but for me it explains a lot. From bottom to top I can see the stages of drunkeness. Some how the steins always stay in focus yet the world around never does.

"The vagina can take a lot of punishment"

Here is a quick clip from the Greatest Show On Earth.

Cartoons

I found a great cartoonist, Asher Sarlin. He art is simple Illustrator stuff but the ideas and premise are fantastic.


This one is called Ramen Poodles



He doesn't charge but is does say: "Asher makes his comics for free, but a little financial support is greatly appreciated.Donations are totally safe and secure through PayPal. Thanks!"

Got depression?

I don't think I can. Read a funny artical about depression cures. Guess what they found? Nope, that's not it. Not that either. Ah, forget it, you'll never guess.

Ketamine!! Yes good 'ol Fort Dodge Ketaset. Apparently, people that were clinically depressed for up to 47 years when given small doses of K (how I don't know, probably a pill) showed a complete reversal. This is great, I don't think I have any chance in the world of becoming depressed :P

Check it out!

Weekend blog early edition

Just a quick blog for a Sunday.

-Friday night I made Drew's request of pasta and tomato sauce. Since she wasn't specific I made amaticiana (my favourite), which is a sweet onion sauce with lots of herbs. She enjoyed it none the less. I opened a mouvedre from Hewitson and it was amazing. For £12 I can't believe how tasty it is (was).

-I am now off to B&Q, TK Max, and Sainsbury's.

    ~B&Q for the box for my digital pictureframe (more to come on that).

    ~TK Max for the frame

    ~Sainsbury's for obvious reasons and to get ginger for my diy ginger ale

-More to come . . . I hope

2003 Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon

Hello Blog viewers, all 1 of you. Thought I would keep the trend up of writing about something that has nothing to do with the post before it. Today it is wine. I just bought, with the help of my lovely future sister-in-law a bottle of the above wine. It was, with her discount $102US. Probably the most I have ever spent on a single bottle of wine, outside of a restaurant of course. I'm excited. I had a 2000 when I was last home and it was stunning to say the least. Looking forward to this one. The question is, when to open it??? It probably could do with 5-10 years bottle aging before even considering it. Guess I'll have to wait it out. Here are the notes from their site.

“If you really want to make great wine, go to the hills” was theadvice given to us in 1966 by André Tchelistcheff, America’s preeminent20th century winemaker. And indeed we came to these rocky hillsides ofPritchard Hill, where we have farmed winegrapes for nearly 40 years andproduce what many critics call one of the world's finest wines.

We're pleased to offer Club members an exclusive opportunity toreserve this wine before it is available to the general public.Compelling in its elegance and power, the wine exhibits a bouquet ofbaked cherries and berries shaded by nutmeg and sweet new French oak.The wine is extraordinarily concentrated, with deep flavors of cherryand plum touched by hints of chocolate, cola and roasted coffee. Withonly 200 cases, we are able to provide a maximum of 3 bottles permember. We will reserve the wine in your name to ship upon release inearly October, 2006.

Ciao till next post!!
