Busted.

One of the guys from my work was supposed to go to Mexico next week.  His attitude on monday was all defiant and saying he was still gonna go while people were giving him a hard time.  By tuesday no one was giving him a hard time as it was generally accepted that his trip was ruined.  As for Weds and Thursday it's just turned into him whining about how fucked everything is.  

One of the office brokers after hearing his rants said "Mr Angry's really fired up today."

Kid Millions- "Victim to the Beat"

Check this guy out, he was part of New Music Wednesday on 88.9 Radio Milwaukee (How I haven't blogged about the greatness of this station is beyond me).

Anyway, dude's a Milwaukee rapper and his shit is hot!  Check out his myspace page (yes, I am endorsing a trip to myspace).  I've only heard his one song, "Victim to the Beat" but I'm sold, this guy's the man, I'm gonna see him in concert.

My The Wrestler endorsement warning

 Schwa said...

first of all, your endorsement should come with a warning: do not watch this movie if you're in a good mood or want to be in a good mood. i just watched it for the first time and i think i want to cry the rest of the night. it's probably the best movie i've ever seen... that i have absolutely no desire to ever watch again.

Look at this fucking hipster

I'm not gonna lie, I go to this site to look for my friend Ian.  Look at this fucking hipster.


Texts From Last Night

(212): so she proceeds to puke everywhere, look up at me like a sick dog, and then say, "i'll finish if you want me to."

(317): I swear to god I'm with a high end prostitute right now and shes the most interesting person I've ever met. She just took me in to share an evening.
(317): And as an added bonus she seems to have gotten a blood stain out of my favorite t-shirt

(414): I just want to fool around, so if you get this and are down, pls respond

(669): I don't understand why she insists on me walking her to the door. She came over for literally 8 minutes, we had sex, and now I need her to leave. That fake chivalry will change nothing about the situation.


Awesome fucking website www.textsfromlastnight.com, possibly better than fml?  Seems a lot less fake...

Cool Commercial


I like what Heineken's been doing with their commercials, this looks like a fun cab ride.

Baloon Animals

Normally these things kinda suck, this one's awesome.

This is not the right video by the way

I laughed harder everytime I watch this.  I know it's wrong, but it's just so fucking funny.  Comedic genius by whoever planned this.

Best Dress Shirts

The Brooks Brother's Non-Iron Slim Fit Dress Shirt is the greatest dress shirt money can buy.  Unbelievable shirt, obviously comes in wide range of colors including the seasonal, prob 5-15 different designs they release each season as well as the normal blues and so on that they stock year round.  The Slim Fit is a perfect fit straight off the rack, which is often hard as most dress shirts wind up being baggy and hanging off in all the wrong places.  

However, the greatest thing about these shirts is the fact that they are non-iron.  Normal shirts look beat up after a day of wear, a non-iron shirts looks like it was just pressed, all day, every day.  Simply because of this fact you can reduce the amount of times you have to dry clean the shirt, or iron, or press the shirt.  I get multiple wears out of the same shirts without having to dry clean them between wears (I wear undershirts, obvs).

Anyway, check them out, and look for sales.  You can usually find them 3 for $200 and they just finished a 15% off on top of that and have another I think 25% off coming up shortly.  Great shirts.

The W(P)ussification of America



I really just wanna whoop all of these guys asses.  The guy jumping around with no jump rope sucks.

I'm going to ensure that my kid has dodgeball at his school.  I'm just so fucking upset right now, I don't even know what to write and I'm just shaking my head.

Kobe Bryant Doin' Work a Spike Lee Joint

Spike Lee followed Kobe around for a minute and got some real close up footage of Kobe being Kobe.  I think what I'm most excited about is going to be the voiceover from Kobe, which appears to be pretty constant. Hearing this mad man who's just obsessed with the game and excellence will be a truly educational hour and a half.  

I'm also excited to hear the on the court chatter between players.  I always wonder how awesome it would be to hear a game with no announcers but with the players mic'd up.  Some of these guys talk so much shit.

Sidenote, just got a call from my captain for the spring Bball league at the J, we may have a decent team including the guy who lit me up for 66, so I don't have to worry about that happening again, aleast not from him.

Sprinkles Cupcakes

Wow, Sprinkles Cupcakes looks out of this world amazing.  Amazing ingredients, great decorations, I need to get one to come to Milwaukee or else I'll definitely be making the trip down to Chicago if that store ever opens up.

New Dan Brown Book

Comes out September 15, here's the Press Release for The Lost Symbol.  

Should be pretty good, he's only had about 40 years to write it.  If you haven't read Angels and Demons do that, it's better than DaVinci Code though all these movies are probably gonna suck.  And that's less because of Tom Hanks' hair that it should be.

Need to know the story behind this


EMBED-Kid Doesn't Think His Friend Will Jump - Watch more free videos
This is the dumbest and most dangerous thing I've ever seen. This guy is no having kids and it looks like he agreed to this. Makes no sense.

Wrestler comes out tomorrow


If you haven't seen it yet go buy/rent it tomorrow and do. I think it's one of the best movies I've ever seen.

Check out the Jell-O thing at the end


I-Movix SprintCam v3 NAB 2009 showreel from David Coiffier on Vimeo.
This is a super slow motion HD camera, it's really cool video and I can't wait to see more applications for technology. The fire is unbelievable and I could watch the Jell-O at the end bounce for days.

Big Baby!

Watching this Celtics Bulls series is very tough for me because I hate both teams.  I think I like the Celtics more than the bulls because I really like Ray and Big Baby and don't even like anyone on the bulls.

Anyway, after seeing Big Baby go diving into the stands at the start of the second half I immediately thought of a story about Shaq and Big Baby hanging out when Big Baby was a teenager, the article was featured in the Boston Globe a while back:

"I was 14 or 15, and I went to his house and I was hanging with Shaq," Davis says. "He says to me, 'Let's go outside and wrestle.' We started wrestling. I pinned him down. He couldn't budge me."

The 7-1, 325-pound O'Neal confirms the story.

"He picked me up and body-slammed me," says Shaq. "That's when I knew he was for real."

Does this make any sense to anyone?  A grown man Shaquille O'Neil is hanging out with this kid and just says "hey, let's go wrestle."  Shaq knows how to fucking party.
