missle launcher for shoes
this...
for this...
my friend shannon just showed me this so i thought i would toss it up here
Missile dumped at US gun amnesty
A man in Florida surprised police by handing in a surface-to-air missile launcher during a gun amnesty in the city of Orlando.
Under the no-questions-asked scheme, "Kicks for Guns", anyone who surrendered a firearm would receive trainers or $50 (£25).
The Orlando Sentinel newspaper said the man exchanged the rocket launcher for designer footwear for his daughter.
He told the newspaper he found the 4ft (1.2m) weapon in a shed last week.
The unidentified man said he had tried in vain to get rid of the launcher, which is designed to blow aircraft out of the sky.
"I took it to three dumps to try to get rid of it and they told me to get lost."
"I didn't know what to do with it, so I brought it here," he told the newspaper.
Besides the missile launcher, Orlando Police collected more than 310 guns during the amnesty.
After inspecting the rocket launcher, police spokeswoman Sgt Barbara Jones said: "I tell you, you never know what you're going to get."
I'll tell you, the guy at the dump has got alot of balls to tell a guy with a anti aircraft missle launcher to just "get lost." whoever owned this thing must have been a pushover anyways being that he gave it up just for a pair of shoes for his kid, i mean come on, rob a bank or hold something hostage or something! Its not every day you run across a missle launcher you know, and if you do you, better damn well use it!
heres a clip of that guy and his family i found on youtube
good trade

gogol bordello on letterman
is it me or does it seem like this was not daves idea/he had never heard of these guys untill he announced them. anyways Gogol Bordello have been quickly becoming one of my favorite bands ever since Ashley and her brother Parker showed them to me. I was sold when i found out that their music is categorized as "russian gypsy punk." I highly suggest these guys to everyone
"I am here only for their tears. Give them to me and I will go."
big brother adam sent this one to me with a bunch of would be great movies that were never made
look up the rest here... http://www.cracked.com/index.php?name=News&sid=2304
Dan Aykroyd has been desperately pushing for a Ghostbusters sequel for over a decade (yes, we're refusing to acknowledge that Ghostbusters 2 exists). He wrote a script years ago called Ghostbusters: Hellbent (later changed to the more descriptive Ghostbusters in Hell when co-conspirator Harold Ramis got involved) where the ghostbusting crew wind up in a version of New York that exists only in Hell. As the original actors aged and the film continued to not get made, the script was changed to accommodate new, younger group of comedy all-stars to play newly-hired ghostbusters—which, for better or worse, was going to include Ben Stiller.
Why it didn't get made: Because "Billy" didn't want to get within ten feet of the thing, according to Aykroyd. "Billy" is Bill Murray, who didn't like how the second movie turned out (what second movie?) and has since dedicated his life to making more serious films. To be fair, special effects are fun to watch but not so much fun to act in. Murray, now in his late 50s, probably didn't want to spend half a year in front of green screens, covered in slime and getting thrashed around by hydraulic monsters, with Aykroyd and Ramis calling him "Billy" and giving him big thumbs-up signs the whole time
And while we're on the subject: Before the original Ghostbusters came around, Ivan Reitman, Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd were in talks to make Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. It was scrapped when Aykroyd came up with the idea for Ghostbusters
oh what could have been! it could still happen
when the Titanic arrived,
"welp, better late than never!"

dedicated to my buddy Nick from the aquarium, sorry steam wasnt here
catch up
so heres the deal, Ive been putting stuff up on my blog on myspace for some time now and figured I would start a real one. I tried this before but it didnt really last, so this is take two. so heres some stuff that I've posted the last few days to catch up!
Georges Millies is still a head of everyone else!
this next one is famous for many reasons other then the smashing pumpkins but check it out, and if you want play tonight tonight on a loop if you must
uh...cant remember how i found this but it took me by surprise
um, yah, this is a bit scary/fucked up. just for the record, if i ever meet anybody and they say there name is satan, i'm just walkin away, I meen thats just me, thats how i roll. so if anyone is freaked out, the below should make you feel better
is anybody else worried about the simpsons movie?
so the simpsons movie comes out today which will probably break some sort of record for sales but as everyone knows that doesnt mean the movies gonna be good. and dont get me wrong I love the simpsons, most of my vocaubulary comes from them, but as we all know it stopped being funny after phil hartman died and has been struggling on since. sooo now the movie, is this a last gasp? is this going to be a continuing film franchise? and how come this didnt come out 14 years ago? also after seeing the previews and everything theres only one joke that i thought was funny and the rest looks like crap. and from what i know about the plot, homer falls in love with a pig? really? hopefully i'll be eating my words later and its the best thing i've ever seen, but i doubt it. none the less i'm worried
Comic Book Guy: Last night's 'the simpsons movie' was, without a doubt, the worst episode ever. Rest assured, I was on the internet within minutes, registering my disgust throughout the world.
greatest movie boxing matches...
well to be honest i just wanted to show the bottom one, and with the bottom one how come the woman gets hit the worst? along with that whats with the priest holding up the guy in the crowd? maybe this was apart of a subplot earlier in the movie, also that a kick ass bell they got over in India, im pretty sure i could fold up a few pieces of tin foil and it would be as powerful! oh well
new indiana jones footage!!!
LOOK ME UP...

The above link is some new footage of the new INDIANA JONES!!!
it looks to me that he must be fighting the koreans in this one (its supposed to be in the late 50's). I was hoping he was gonna take on Molaram and the other guys from the temple of doom again and that way they could keep making these movies in a big pattern like that! but one way or another it could just be him chilling at home and i would still shell out 12 bucks to see this! Also notice in this mini trailer how Lucas is wearing a han solo t shirt, even more proof (if any needed) that this guy is a douchebag! its like some dorky fan who just doesnt know any better and thinks "aw man i know what'll impress harrison ford, if i wear a t shirt of him on it he'll definitley want to be my friend!"
as some of you know i actually tried out to be an extra in the new Indy for the scenes they were filming in New Haven (the scene would be indy at a football game then either riding a motorcycle through the streets or walking through the streets) but unfortunatley they never called back. maybe i should have worn a t shirt with Dr. Richard Kimble on it, oh well, check this out!
classic clip from one crazy summer!
"isn't that a great story!"

Alex Cormack, the greatest animator ever!
as some of you know I was making some cartoons for the sox appeal website (its a show thats gonna be on NECN which shannon was workin on) and if you havent heard, they were lookin to spice up the website and asked me to do some cartoons. so Ashley and I sat down and came up with some ideas and we ended up with 3 stories. well finished one of them and the other 2 are mostly done. when i showed them the one i asked for some cash (yep i was workin for free) for the other two and i got the runaround. so the cartoon is still not on their website but i put it up on youtube and here it is. It will also be up on my website along with two other new cartoons (not the ones for NECN but they will be up probably by the end of the summer if not sooner) but as usual my computer has been crappin out on me so theyll be up eventually. anyways enjoy this absolutley true story of loooove
