So I Married an Axe Murderer

Can I just say that there was a time when Mike Myers was on top of the world?



A couple quick thoughts:

-Lyndon B. Johnson was a great man (non-seq)

-Let's blow up the Chinese Basketball Association

-Chinese Democracy is real, hahahahahahahahaha, me so hungy.

Update

Getting away from the dirty provincial capital over the long weekend was a real pleasure; Córdoba is kind of a piece of shit town itself, nobody picks up after their dogs, but what are you gonna do?

Banagher is an "Irish Pub" located a short walk outside of the center, where Theo, Pablo and myself enjoyed several delicious drinks consisting of blackberry liquer, red wine and coca-cola; I'm pretty sure there is a white, powdered equivalent of this drink that I nay cannot afford on a teacher's assistant salary.

There is a delicious dish known as a "plao" that consists of basmati rice, salad, falafel and sauce; best 3.50 euro I spent all weekend.

WHY HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN PHIL HARTMAN WORLD?!?!!? WHY?!?!?!

Synagogue, New York

I think Jews are just about the funniest minority that ever was; except for every other minority group ever.

Fukhit

I put together a bunch of tracks in honor of Día de la constitución which falls on December 6th. That's right motherfuckers 30 years of spanish democracy; which means we can see more movies like this getting full blown releases:


Some Rhythm

Ok, I lied earlier. I didn't put together tracks in honor of the holiday. But perhaps you assholes who may read this from time to time would like to hear my quasi-demo tape. Why quasi you ask? One reason and one reason alone: there's no use in taking anything too seriously if you don't have to. With that in mind, it is my new found plan to adopt the word's of Allen Alda in Little Miss Sunshine. Anyhoo, here it is, my first real try at making music that doesn't elicit terrifying visions of Pablo Neruda shaking his taco booty.

Secret's out, J.A. Adande is the best basketball writer on the planet.Noone else has had the ingenuity to describe the Starbury saga as tragicomedy. Keep up the good work my man.

It's Hard to be a Saint in the City

I am terrible at this job, but perhaps you will all get a look at what an Oberlin education can do for a mediocre alum.

If the labrynth that is acquiring internet access can ever be exited, I promise to give away all my worldly possessions via the blog.

Love,

Al

heroes and villains

The NBA is hard to come by in butt fuck Spain, so my thoughts are drifting ten years ago when a great hero came to the Meadowlands to spread joy and wealth:

Read about it here.

Allio

David Brooks opinion piece where we learn about attitudes and casual masturbation.

Best NYT Obama article I've seen in weeks

I think we should have wars be fought by leaders, but instead of killing each other with guns and knives and the like, they can just embarrass each other through brilliant pranks that are caught on film and the masses can vote on for the sake of popularity.

Ashton Kutcher and Pepe Jeans are harbingers for the death of many things.

Nina Simone

A sobering interview from 11 years ago between Nina Simone and some douchebag interviewer.

The only appropriate response I could find to the words of one of the greatest musicians of the 20th century was created in the early 2000's by the hip hop collective known as Dipset.

Welsh Family Pigout!

That is too personal a statement for a blog title, but who reads this besides my mom anyway?

So moving on, here's that album that a special someone asked for by a certain band who is most certainly not from Barcelona.

IFB-WKHH?

EGO

Kanye West makes other entertainers wonder what the word arrogance really means.

Rogue Wave

RW-DLV

Ryan Welsh,

I will do what you asked of me concerning that band who claims to be from Catalunya later today.

Obrigado

Hi Mom!







So anyways, I'm headed to Portugal for the weekend, but I didn't want to dissapoint Kaitlin Barrer, so I'm leaving you all with something to listen to in the mean time.

As soon as it uploads, which might be a couple of months from now.

SG-BMF


Baron Davis is a GENIUS, Chris Bosh is my favorite player in the NBA.

Ten Years After

The Blues is a funny genre in that no matter how much it changes, it can always be reduced to an incredibly simple formula. Electric Blues also abides by this rule; don't let those fuckers in the Black Keys fool you, ever since B.B. King and Howlin Wolf stepped onstage in Chicago shit has changed.

Alvin Lee, Lead Guitarist and Vocalist, of Ten Years After seems dutifully aware of this situation. Most critics regard the album Watt as mediocre at best, citing another album Cricklewood Green, as a more inventive and complete work of Electric Blues. Since we are all entitled to our own opinions on these matters, I thought I'd let you all decide for yourselves. So without futher hullabaloo, I present it to you.

W-TYA

p.s.-Love Handles are coming to a waist near you!

Arthur

Maybe you really enjoyed watching PBS as a child; Mom and Dad were not willing to wash away your mind in the wild seas of basic cable packages, or for the lucky few with premium access, an eddy that would make Whoopi Goldberg blush.



Perhaps you have an utter fascination with television programs that never aired in the year 1969. You went to a 4 year university where, for a little while after the fact, you're wondering when you're ever gonna leave the womb. Is all vague writing just projections of the self? Don't worry yourself with these questions too much, who has the time to fool around when there are real CRISES out there to be solved!?!!? Wait, we can't solve them immediately, and there is crazy shit going down worldwide. Damn.

Might as well relax and take this for a spin;
