ugh

Anybody else comes as Draco and I'll throw down a patronus on their ass. I'm serious.
MaKK T. is so harry potter, it's not even funny.

Okay... Josh has agreed to the HP wedding provided that Eric either comes as Hagrid or (better yet) Moaning Myrtle.
Everybody is free to pick your own costume. I do hope that Snape will be there and of course the party won't fly without Dobby!

As for the "Harry Potter" themed wedding.... i'm gonna have to think about it. Decorations could get pretty expensive. Can you imagine the cost of renting "the great hall" for our reception?

Now that is comedy Eric. That looks like the stray cat that always came inside my apartment before we moved.

If I was the prezz, and Cindy Sheehan was outside my ranch? I'd blare Black Sabbath's War Pigs 44 hours a day - full blast. boo... boo.. boo. ya ka. ha!

I saw some overeager duck feeders at the park the other day. They were gothic looking couple and they were just absolutely pelting these ducks with large chuncks of squished together bread.

The ducks were loving it though. The didn't mind how fast the bread was coming at them.

In other news:

95,638,231 women internationally have engaged in bestiality.
255,035,283 men internationally have engaged in bestiality.
In a train carrying 300 people - 5 women and 12 men are experienced.
At the Hollywood bowl, you will find 261 experienced women, and 695 men.
If your company has 100 people - 3 women and 8 men have had experience.

OK. That's bs. They're just using those stats to make them feel better. A little justification, what not.

Some of their other ads show pictures of "tom boy knees."

They're comparing these Nike ads to Dove ads, which also show women that considerably bigger then your average waifish model.

My butt is big
And round like the letter C
And ten thousand lunges
Have made it rounder
But not smaller
And that’s just fine.
It’s a space heater
For my side of the bed
It’s my ambassador
To those who walk behind me
It’s a border collie
That herds skinny women
Away from the best deals
At clothing sales.
My butt is big
And that’s just fine
And those who might scorn it
Are invited to kiss it.
Just do it.

I'd like to start out by saying this is the new Nike ad and it is genius as usual.

Also, did you know Adidas is a German shoemaker? I had no idea.

Anyway, let's get to the point. This is kind of old news but did anyone else get a little creeped out by the adidas and reebok merger? apparently adidas is going to climb on top of reebok's shoulders and start making more expensive top of the line shoes in an attempt to take down Nike! Meanwhile reebok's job will be to go after the light aerobics womens crowd, and also try to move in on the suburban fifty cent kids. (I guess adidas is going after the urban crowd while adidas is going suburban?)

It's kind of ambitious that adidas is trying to take on Nike, but I just don't see the "A" shoe keeping up with the progressive, high money, high profile Nike team. Adidas has always relied on a bit of the wax notalgia for their image. I just don't want Adidas to get ugly. Otherwise I'm going to have to start wearing Vans again.

Death to the Record - Death Death to the Record. Eric B. and Rakim were right. (They're rappers to you baby boomer bloggers)

"WARNER Music Group (WMG) is to begin releasing music by artists in “clusters” of three or four tracks rather than as whole albums, heralding the first big shift away from the record industry’s traditional business model."

The only people we can blame for this is everyone else. The whole world's been trying to kill "the record" for years. First by actually making something initially called "the record" obsolete. Something that happened when I was like six-years-old. Now they've begun fianl plans for the complete deconstruction of the record format itself.

back at ya hossman - Happy freaking monday. Somebody brought up that Josh and Monica should have a Harry Potter wedding. Was that you Eric? Anyway, I got dibbs on draco malfoy. Crabbe and Goyle? well I think Ebben could play both of those roles.

I found you Captain Stinkpot.
