Mr Man actually thought this might be fun, so - YOU get to decide what he’ll wear to the big fancy schmancy formal corporate awards dinner.

This requires him to get all dressed up in a suit, which he bought two years ago for this very event and only worn twice. We decide d since he’d worn the other fancy shirts we’d bought to go with, it as time for new fancy clothes. So we got inthe car and went to Kohl’s who as it happened were having a 40-70% off all this stuff, so he loaded up, since they are making them wear ties more at work now (they used to be all polo shirts and jeans before a sales weenie took over the top seat).

SO - go over and start leaving comments and notes on which combo you like. I also included second choice ties, but the “outfits” you’ll see my my first choices for those colors, and #5 is my personal choice.

ELITE DESIGNERS AGAINST IKEA is a very clever little site about IKEA being evil for being so cheap, run by can you guess it… Ikea! All starring a “designer” named van den Puup (yup, poop)

Looks to be a UK ad campaign, be sure to watch all the commercials and videos - funny, funny stuff.

That I am just throughly enjoying the new OKGO album? FunkyBlue and I saw them a few years ago in concert opening for TMBG. They were still a pre-record deal group and I thought they had a lot of potential. They finally signed with Capitol and I have to say their second album, Oh No, is the best thing I’ve heard in a while - from anyone. I just can’t stop playing it. It even broke my new Duran Duran album spell of 10 weeks.

They’ve really grown into a rocking little group and seem to be everywhere right now. I got the album on itunes, and it’s quickly made it in to my speakers at least a few times a week. You definitely should check it out… cough indecipherable muttering cough.

Hell, they even have a podcast if you are into that sort of thing. #4 is quite entertaining.

Anyway, I thought in absence of anything else, I’d plug it and give it a big ole thumbs up for it’s pure jammablilty. Especially this song in this video it’s made them pretty famous as of late. It is behind them becoming viral gods on the intarweb and as a result getting invited on MadTV and the Tonight Show to dance it.

They are also Chicago boys. Midwest represent!

Do you see it? Desperate Housewives had a major editing blunder, and they did it twice!

It’s called a “cross fade” and anyone who has used iMovie or other video software will know what I mean, but to explain quickly, it’s when you take two pieces of video and fade them into each other to transition. Housewives did it in the middle of the freaking scene using two different takes while a character was moving and talking.

While Mike was talking to Susan about why Zach didn’t kill him. Mike turns by the door and lifts his arms and begins to talk and while the audio is solid the figure of Mike clearly fade to a slightly different take where he’s standing about 3″ lower. Take a look at the shot above the house is steady in the frame, the only thing that moved is Mike and Susan’s hair. I couldn’t believe they did it and let it make the airwaves - so to see they did it twice was just flabbergasting. I played it back and forth 5 times, it’s clear as day.

The second time was in the office while Lynnette is being interviewed, the man tosses a wad of paper into the trashketball hoop and in the middle of the shot of it going in it cross fades again. I didn’t get a shot of that one, as the one above was more shocking since it was during a line delivery.

This is the worst editing I’ve ever seen on network television. Kids using iMovie could do better than that!

Daily Show Slash Fiction - Ok, I’ve had naughty thought about Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert too, but not together! Ewww!

This Flickr user was ever so kind to make me a contact.

But as thier photo collection is pics of girls with excess limb follication (had to change the term on that to sqaush Google), I’m not sure if I’m insulted, disgusted or curious as to why they made me a contact. I don’t even think I have any pics of Folically armed chics.

Am I a girl with shaggy fore limbs? I’m not sayin’.

iPod Nano Spoof - Even if you don’t like macs you’ll laugh hard.

I screamed in Target today. Mountain Dew Pitch Black is back!

This time it’s called Pitch Black II and has been given a more sour kick. Still good, just not a sour person. It’s not as sour as orange juice so it’s not like sucking on a grape sour patch kid anything, it’s just a tad sour. Which I’m growing used to, but not sure I like it as much as I did the original.

Also, since the upgrade to MT 3.2 my brother FunkyBlue and myself have gotten some large popup ads when loading this site occasionally. WTF dude? If you get one PLEASE COMMENT it and email me a screen shot so I can see it. ALso if you can right click the ad and grab me the link.

I have removed the web tracker/counters thinking they might have been hacked on their server side. The only other venue to check is MT, maybe my MT files on my server got hacked. Wouldn’t be the first time spammers used MT against itself.

I still get comment spam on MT3, it just filters it now and recognizes good from bad about 98% of the time and never makes the spam ones active. I still have to delete it, but it doesn’t publish it to begin with so it’s really easy to just log in and kill the entire spam folder time to time.

If you have trouble commenting, email me and give me the story and I’ll try to see what’s going on.

Hurricane Rita is traveling nearly a identical path as Katrina who swept in from the Atlantic, across the Keys, pummeling party town Key West on it’s way, of course to devastate New Orleans, home of Mardi Gras.

Now, it looks as New Orleans is gonna get another kick to the nuts as soon as it started to stand back with some rain and spring break favorite Galveston looks be lined up for this punch.

I’m convinced Mother Nature hates Girls Gone Wild. It’s like she’s trying to flush the wet t-shirt contests, heaps of discarded thongs, and pools of cheap beer off her back.

Seems these “artists” erected giant pink bunny on mountain side. Yah. I thought so too.

Obviously they have never seen what happens to wool when left to the elements. Bye bye cheery pink color. Bye bye fresh smell. Hello weeds and slime growing out of it. Hello holes where bugs have attacked it. In 20 years that frivolous monster rabbit will look like a huge brown rotting dung heap and probably smell worse than the most disgusting dog . No climber in his life will want to go near it let alone set up a sleeping bag on it.

It’ll be fun to try to spot on Google Earth in next year though.

Chick-Fil-A Cow Calendars

OMG! I never hit a BUY NOW button so fast in my life. I only bought two but I think I’ll be ordering some more soon.

Oh hell yah!

Been flickring a lot lately, found some funny pics and instead of posting them here, I gave them to Davezilla whose audience is more into WTF pictures… #’s 70 and 71 are ones I sent in, oh and there are more, so many more. Putting the link here because you should see them too, laughing at geeks is funny.

Looking forward to My Name is Earl tonight, if you are on and not doing anything feel free to AIM me. Youc an find that info over on the top right under my Flickr pics.

I think my dogs have at least 200-word vocabulary they understand clearly.

I’m testing the system and I do not appear to be getting notices of comments coming in, so - let’s just do a roll call…

Name, location, url, and one thing someone might not know about you… please?

Upgraded to MT 3.2, will have some code catch-up to play to get it all correctly functional again. Things might be wonky for a bit while I get the template updated/fixed/beaten within an inch of it’s life.

A thankful shout out to Angela for letting me con her into doing the upgrade for me as she’s done it a few times already. She’s an old hat at deciphering the crapfest that is the documentation of MT 3. Shameful lack of info there. I’m glad I didn’t pay the bastards money - yet.

What is it with men and dropping fart bombs in the grocery store?

Mr Man gets some perverse joy out of it. I’ll be looking at cans of soup then he’ll come out ot nowhere, lean over, and go “I woudn’t take much longer if I were you. It’s coming…” He’ll gigle.

Predictably, an old lady flies into the aisle as I escape. Once I even heard one, from the safety of one aisle away, go “Oh dear god!” as soon as the smell hit her and beginning to cough, Mr Man snickered gleefully.

He’s not the only one, I know I’ve walked into a few fart-mined stores in my time. Fess up guys, what is it with stores triggering rancid butt gas?

Look at the monkey’s collar, the puffyness on his left shoulder, he misbuttoned his damned shirt. He can’t even dress himself!

You would have thought that SOMEONE on his staff would have noticed, or maybe they did and just decided to let him go out that way to prove he’s the complete moron he is.

Different angles only support the theory. There is just MORE fabric on the left side than the right side from where the fabric meets to the top edge of the collar.

I can’t believe I have a president that 1: can’t button his shirt right, and 2: that doesn’t have an attentive enough staff of handlers, image men, and dressers to notice it.

Truth is stranger than fiction.

Google Blog Search

Okay I need some Movable Type (2.6, old school, yo) lovin.

The comments had chmodded themselves to not be useuable and had to switched back… I can no longer rebuild and I need to to delete an assload of spam comments I’ve killed with blacklist.

If you want to help me figure out what got frakked up, please email me from the name link up above.

I was thinking of moving to wordpress, opinions on that as well please.

Here I was gonna post a big rant becasue you all are being so stingy with the comments and I get a letter from Wes saying that they were broken.

(Anyone know how long it was down? How about why it took this long for someone to tell me???)

For some reason my comment script got chmodded wrong (prolly some server upgrade) anyway it seems to come up now.

Now, get commenting! Damn it!
