This is so wrong, but so funny at the same time....

This is the result of a joke made on the Rick Emerson show (weekdays from 11am to 3pm on AM970 Solid State Radio!) calling the army's new torture and interrogation handbook "The Little Golden Book of Torture". Apparently, there is a children's book artist in the audience and he painted this and sent it in.



Fantastic!

This is the best thing since 'V For Vendetta'

I see drunk people...

Child star Haley Joel Osment was treated for a broken rib and a shoulder injury after he flipped his car while driving with a blood alcohol level over .15. He was also charged with possession of weed. Fantastic!

However, does anybody know the best part of this story? Not the fact that he was only 18 at the time. It was, of course, that he is an Oscar-nominee and yet he was driving a 1995 Saturn! Apparently booze and drugs are more important to him than buying a car that isn't completely lame.

And what's up with his faux 70's hair? Gross, dude, really gross.

Creature from 'The Ewok Adventure' Found Dead In Maine!

Apparently, there's been some animal mauling going on up in Maine at the paws of some mystery creature. Well, they think they have now found said creature dead in a field and no one can really tell what it is.

From the following descriptions, I have concluded that it is one of the boar-wolf beasts from the forests of Endor, as seen in 'The Ewok Adventure' (aka Caravan of Courage):

"It was charcoal gray, weighed between 40 and 50 pounds and had a bushy tail, a short snout, short ears and curled fangs hanging over its lips..."
"It was evil, evil looking. And it had a horrible stench I will never forget."

Well, I think that pretty much sums it all up. You heard it here first, kids!

And, I'm a nerd...

Oh yeah, I've become addicted to a totally nerdy online role-playing game. Surprise, surprise.

The Brisbane Blue Tongues

Well, seeing as readers are demanding a new post, I suppose I should write something....


I attended the final 2006 home game of the Brisbane Blue Tongues hockey team yesterday. Amazingly, yes, there is a pro ice hockey league in Australia. The funny thing is that the game was played in a regular ice rink where people learn to figure skate and what not. So, there was only low walls and netting, no plexiglass walls. Also, the seats were cheap as hell plastic chairs that leaned slightly forward as if they were going to dump you out at any second, which was bizarre. The game was a good one though, versus the Adelaide Avalanche. It was close up until the final minute when a horrible call gave the Avalanches the game. Read a better summary than I could give here. Be sure to watch the footage of the disputed call as well. It looks to me like his foot may have actually been in the goalie's crease, but the viewpoint isn't the best. I think the goal should have been counted anyway for the sake of extending the game and making it more exciting for the people watching. Instead, it was a lame ending with the visiting team scoring a cheap goal on an open net with 20 seconds left to go. Needless to say, the refs got booed and fans walked out early.

Well, that's the end of that post because I'm exhausted after working two shifts at the watchtower this weekend and going to bed too late last night.

My New Toy

I went to the music store today with a mission. To find some type of amplifier to make my latest sonic creation sound a little more interesting. Actually, the mission this time is to make it sound like it's inside a factory, so I wanted a speaker that sounds like something that would be in a factory. In other words, one of those intercom speakers that make all music sound really tinny and weird.

I was in luck because they still had the bullhorn that I had seen there before! It's something everyone wants, yet no one actually owns. Totally awesome! I can't wait to use it in the studio tomorrow....

UPDATE 2: Tyagarah Meat Pool

Well, there have been a few developments in the Tyagarah Meat Pool saga in the past week, both good and bad. Here's a chronological account:

GOOD: My comment on the "Fun Times at the Tyagarah Meat Pool" article page about using my photo got an email response and an offer to give me credit for the photo. Thanks to Mitra for that, by the way!

BAD: In the same email, it was revealed that both the Tyagarah Natural History Museum and the book about the history of the Meat Pool were works of fiction in an article written in a local newspaper as an April Fool's joke. Notice that the article date is April 1, 2003. Wow, I feel dumb.

GOOD: I sent Mitra my full name and I am now credited as the photographer of the Tyagarah Meat Pool when you hover the mouse over the picture.

BAD: No more information concerning the actual origins of the Meat Pool were offered at any time.


Well kids, this mystery may just go unsolved for the time being....
