Being vigilant isn't a crime

What don't you fucking understand?

While I'm not usually a fan of remixes, this rocks:

A little self mockery goes a long way

My brother in law is partly responsible for this commercial. Good job, JT.

On the way to Oklahoma...

Or, as I like to say: Batshit crazy.

Blast from the past

I used to watch this show every day when I was a kid. Wow.

Fuck the Vote

“The next time they give you all that civic bullshit about voting, keep in mind that Hitler was elected in a full, free democratic election”

Scary toys and proof of Claus

Way back in 1980 I just had to have the most awesome, 18" action figure ever made: Alien



What kid wouldn't want such an incredible, nightmare inducing hunk of plastic? I honestly don't know what the folks at Kenner were thinking when they came up with this. A tie in for a R rated horror movie. At any rate, being a monster and sci-fi buff, I wanted it.

My mother, of course, said no way. Being 7, I decided to ask Santa for it, since my mother wouldn't even entertain the idea. I wasn't holding out much hope, since she said she was telling Santa not to get it.

Christmas morning rolled around, and Santa left the usual pile of booty. One of the last presents I opened was a big box, and as the paper peeled away I saw that monster's eyes peering out at me. I exclaimed in joy "Santa got me the Alien!!!"

My mother acted all pissed. "Damn it, I told Santa not to get that for you!"

I remember going back to school, convinced Santa must be real if he went against my parents' wishes and got me the toy I wanted most.

I still have it to this day:

One week to go...

Needless to say, I can not wait!

It's a slow burn at first, but well worth it

I've got a story to tell

Little Man

So, last night I experimented with the slide show maker that comes with the Nero software. It was fairly easy to use, but I must admit the constant pop ups asking if I'd like to buy the updated version were annoying.

Please excuse the varied wipes and fades. I just wanted to get a feel for how they all looked, and by the time I was done burning it I was far too tired to go back and replace them. I did manage to get in one star wipe, though. So I got that going for me. Anyway, here's a tribute to the boy:

Lightening!

Apparently the refrain of choice when nearly hit by lightening:

"Holy shit!"

You, sir, are a true vulgarian

And I salute you.

Holy shit

Have I mentioned how fucking AWESOME this looks?

Now I'm starting to get a little worried
