have a good start.

Jitterbug.

The Holy Mountain...

Thanks for posting that Jamie, I think that was the strangest movie I have ever seen! Every freakin scene in that movie was weird, just when I thought I would have seen the weirdest one, sure enough a weirder one popped up next, and it was like that the entire movie. I think my favorite scene was when he shit in a glass, they then boiled the shit and the steam of his shit was his sauna bath, and all of his sweat dripped back into his shit and it formed into diamonds, then finally formed into a nice chunk of gold! How nice would that be!? And tons of random violence, nudity and sexual content (weird kinky stuff).

A definite must see film!!

has anybody else seen it yet?

from the Descendents website....

"We're very sorry to announce that founding member of The DESCENDENTS, and close friend Frank Navetta passed away on October 31, 2008 after becoming ill over the course of a few days. This is obviously a huge loss for the DESCENDENTS family. His contribution to the band, and to music in general can not be overstated. Frank will be truly missed. We will share information about memorial services when we find out."

Killackey Update: Miss you all

The Hickey Revival was a must for this reunion. I figured that Corey would have appreciated it if he would have graced us with his presence. You may now refer to him as Tony the Tiger. I still love him, however. These pics were taken by an Edmond Memorial student who happened to be there, and I must say this kid is a wiz at photoshop.

Last night we took Darby and Scout trick or treating with some neighbors.  I do believe that I the best damn looking children known to mankind.  I am just waiting for Jamie, Jason or Corey to give my kids a run for their money...you too, Kirk!

Happy Halloween

Misses Palin

This is pretty funny.

Dee Dee King.

In 1989 Dee Dee Ramone dropped this steaming pile of whiteness on the populace. I mean what could go wrong with A Dee Dee rap album it's like bread and butter, pop tarts and milk. It turns out that just about everything wrong with western civilization makes a cameo on this album. On par with Lou Reed's Metal Machine Music as one of the worst albums by an awesome person ever. Here is one of my favorite tracks.

2 much 2 Drink.

Download.

Here is a clip from the great Ramone's documentry 'End of the Century' explaining this unfortunate episode.

jams...

kirk's post made me think about how whenever jamie and i talk we always ask what the other has been listening to, but can never seem remember anything when we're put on the spot. so right now, for the first time in awhile, i'm actually sitting back and listening to music, so i thought i'd post the things that are making me happy at this moment (and actually making me feel relaxed for the first time in a few weeks), in case you guys need any new jams to listen to. (i put the links to itunes for previewing, but if you guys want me to upload anything just let me know.)


New Pinhead Gunpowder 7" -- new tunes to make you think of old times.


Poison Idea "Pick Your King" -- their first 7" and the only thing i really like by them (doesn't sound like what you think of when you think Poison Idea). just fucking great old hardcore, which i've been on a big kick of lately.


anything and everything Chuck Ragan -- there are a couple singles he's put on itunes lately i've been listening to a lot, plus the collaboration LP w/ austin lucas, a couple splits, a handful of comp songs, the revival tour song.... dude is goddamn prolific and that makes me stoked.


The Clash "Live at Shea Stadium" -- not a mind-blowing show, but it sounds great and there are some really cool moments.


Die Kreuzen "s/t" LP -- this album was crazy ahead of its time. fucking insane hardcore from '84. after this they turned into a pretty terrible band, but holy shit this record rules. the link sends you to the album on itunes this record is tacked onto the end of, so if you check it out, start at track 16.


Dillinger Four "CIVILWAR" -- even when they're just okay its still pretty rad. more new tunes to make you think of old times.


The Fest 7 Comp -- a surprisingly cool 34 song comp No Idea put together for this year's Fest. like any no idea comp there are some misses, but there's actually a lot of songs i'm enjoying by bands i never really dug that much before. and it's free!


And lastly the damn record that i've been listening to more than anything the past 8 months. but as of last night its finally, officially done! the culmination of almost 2 years represented in 44 min and 55 sec. life's an amazing thing... let the touring begin so i can actually get to see all you guys again!!

32

It was 32º outside when I left this morning.
I hate cold

Yesterday Jamie and I had a massive music swap. These two album remind me so much of driving around Edmond in my old van. I almost forgot how amazing they are.

this site can tell ya, i guess...

http://www.glassbooth.org/

here were my results...

Ralph Nader 80%
Cynthia McKinney 78%
Barack Obama 73%
John McCain 50%
Bob Barr 50%

post your results! ten bucks says regan is all about that corpse and his milf.

31 years old today

I turned 31 today. Old.
I got a Scraching Weasel, Trio Heart and a Peacock tattooed yesterday.
So far 31 is looking up.
Oh and I havent had a myspace password for 3 months at least.
So dont wish me a happy b-day on there.
Jason can you hook up that email we were talking about so I can fix that problem.

I hate it when Britton Road is closed!

This happened in OKC on Britton Road last week. He was just one of the people waiting in line in his car while they were taking care of a wreck.
I guess I was that mad too last time Britton Road closed!

Death to false metal.

Fuck yes.

You need to remember this. I forgot...

"What Bush did to McCain in the 2000 S. C. primary"


FACT SHEET:

Bush Waged Nasty Smear Campaign Against McCain in 2000
Bush Supporters Called McCain “The Fag Candidate.” In South Carolina, Bush supporters circulated church fliers that labeled McCain “the fag candidate.” Columnist Frank Rich noted that the fliers were distributed “even as Bush subtly reinforced that message by indicating he wouldn’t hire openly gay people for his administration.”

McCain Slurs Included Illegitimate Children, Homosexuality And A Drug-Addict Wife.
Among the rumors circulated against McCain in 2000 in South Carolina was that his adopted Bangladeshi daughter was actually black, that McCain was both gay and cheated on his wife, and that his wife Cindy was a drug addict.”

Bush Campaign Used Code Words to Question McCain’s Temper.
“A smear campaign of the ugliest sort is now coursing through the contest for the presidency in 2000. Using the code word "temper," a group of Senate Republicans, and at least some outriders of the George W. Bush campaign, are spreading the word that John McCain is unstable. The subtext, also suggested in this whispering campaign, is that he returned from 5 1/2 years as a POW in North Vietnam with a loose screw. And it is bruited about that he shouldn't be entrusted with nuclear weapons.”

Bush Supporters Questioned McCain’s Sanity.
“Some of George W. Bush's supporters have questioned Republican presidential candidate John McCain's fitness for the White House, suggesting that his five years as a prisoner of war in North Vietnam drove him insane at the time.”

Bush Supporters Spread Racist Rumors About McCain’s Daughter.
Bush supporters in South Carolina made race-baiting phone calls saying that McCain had a “black child.” The McCains’ daughter, Bridget, was adopted from Mother Teresa’s orphanage in Bangladesh. In August 2000, columnist Maureen Dowd wrote that the McCains “are still seething about Bush supporters in South Carolina spreading word of their dark-skinned adopted daughter.”

Rove Suggests Former POW McCain Committed Treason and Fathered Child With Black Prostitute.
In 2000, McCain operatives in SC accused Rove of spreading rumors against McCain, such as “suggestions that McCain had committed treason while a prisoner of war, and had fathered a child by a black prostitute,” according to the New Yorker.

After Rove Denied Role In McCain Whisper Campaign, Reporters Concluded He Was Behind It.
A December 1999 Dallas Morning News linked Rove to a series of campaign dirty tricks, including his College Republican efforts, allegedly starting a whisper campaign about Ann Richard being too gay-friendly, spreading stories about Jim Hightower’s involvement in a kickback scheme and leaking the educational history of Lena Guerrero. The article also outlined current dirty tricks and whisper campaigns against McCain in South Carolina, including that “McCain may be unstable as a result of being tortured while a prisoner of war in North Vietnam.” (DMN, 12/2/99) After the article was published, Rove blasted Slater in the Manchester, NH airport, “nose to nose” according to one witness, with Rove claiming Slater had “harmed his reputation,” Slater later noted. But according to one witness, “What was interesting then is that everyone on the campaign charter concluded that Rove was responsible for rumors about McCain.”

Rove Was In Close Touch With McConnell, McCain-Feingold’s Chief Opponent.
Senior White House adviser Karl Rove was in close contact with Senator Mitch McConnell (R-KY) during McConnell’s effort to fight the McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Bill in the U.S. Senate. According to Newsweek, though Rove and Bush have publicly kept their distance from McConnell on the issue, “sources tell Newsweek that Rove is, in fact, in close touch with McConnell as GOP experts study the bill for hidden land mines.”

Bush Campaign Accused of Using Push Polls Against McCain.
College of Charleston student Suzette Latsko said she received a telephone call from a woman who identified herself as an employee of Voter/Consumer Research, and that the caller misrepresented McCain’s positions and asked if Latsko knew McCain had been reprimanded for interfering with federal regulators in the savings and loan scandal. Voter/Consumer Research is listed as a polling contractor on Bush’s Federal Election Commission filings; the Bush campaign has paid Voter/Consumer Research $93,000 through December 31, 1999. Bush spokesman Ari Fleischer denied the call was a push poll, but said it was important that the Republican Party remember McCain’s role in the S&L crisis.

Bush Campaign Acknowledged Making Phone Calls.
Tucker Eskew, Bush’s South Carolina spokesman, acknowledged the Bush campaign made such calls, but claimed they were not “push polls.” Eskew added, “Show me a baseless comment in those questions.”

Bush Used Fringe Veterans Group to Attack McCain as “Manchurian Candidate.”
“In the case of Ted Sampley, the same guy who did Bush's dirty work in going after Sen. John McCain in the 2000 Republican primaries is doing the job against Kerry this year. Sampley dared compare McCain, who spent five years as a Vietnam POW, with ‘the Manchurian Candidate.’”

Sampley Called McCain a “Coward” and a Traitor.
“Sampley… accused McCain of being a weak-minded coward who had escaped death by collaborating with the enemy. Sampley claimed that McCain had first been compromised by the Vietnamese, then recruited by the Soviets.”

Of course, the Freepers will deny that any of this actually took place, the poor saps.

UFO PLANS THEIR PRESENCE OVER USA FOR 3 DAYS
BEGINS OCT. 14

Message from the Federation of Light

Blossom Goodchild is a Direct Voice Channeling Medium.
She has been working with the Native American Indian Spirit
energy "White Cloud" for nearly ten years. In more recent
times she has also channeled messages from other energies -
both spirit and cosmic (alien) beings.

Her most recent book "The Bridge" documents the messages
channeled to her by the Cosmic Beings known as The Federation
of Light. In her most recent encounters with them they have
announced that one of their craft will appear in our skies on
October 14th 2008 for a period of three days in such a way as
to prove to us the existence of other life forms in the Universe.

The Federation of Light stress that they come in LOVE to
help us and our planet move to a new Higher Vibration of
Love. They have asked Blossom to get this message out to
as many people as possible - with your help we can do this
in preparation for this historic occasion.

Below is the message from The Federation of Light as channeled
through Blossom. Please forward to as many people as possible.

Thank You
Love & Light
Ric Halstead - (Golden Rays)

_____________________________________________

TO LEADERS, GOVERNORS, POLITICIANS AND
ALL PEOPLE OF EARTH ….

We wish it to be understood that on the 14th day of your
month of October in the year 2008 a craft of great size
shall be visible within your skies. It shall be in the south of
your hemisphere and it shall scan over many of your states.

We give to you the name of Alabama.

It has been decided that we shall remain within your atmosphere
for the minimum of three of your twenty four hour periods.

During this time there will be much commotion upon your
earth plane. Your highest authorities will be intruding into
'our' atmospherics that surround our ship. This `security field'
is necessary for us, as there shall take place a `farce' from those
in your world who shall try to deny that we come in LOVE.

KNOW OF THIS

WE COME TO ASSIST YOUR WORLD.
WE DO NOT COME TO TAKE OVER.
WE DO NOT COME TO DESTRUCT.
WE COME TO GIVE YOU HOPE.

We are beings from other planets, who for many eons of your
time have been preparing for these days ahead.

We ask each soul that reads of these words to accept in their
heart the Truth that lies within. For in that place there is the
knowing that this is to take place.

There shall be many who deny. There shall be many who
dismiss. There shall be those who KNOW of this TRUTH.
Which ever you may be … let this be understood.

IT SHALL TAKE PLACE.

We give you the opportunity to capture on screen this
particular ship. There shall be no contact in the form that
those of your planet would like. For this initial presentation,
we shall simply be presenting our ship to you. We say to
you … That shall certainly be enough to comprehend initially.

All kinds of methods shall be carried out in order to try
and penetrate through our security barrier, but they shall
be to no avail.

Until we can PROVE to you that we come in LOVE, we
will not allow the fullness of our visits to be uncovered.

KNOW OF THIS …
THIS IS THE BEGINNING … NOT THE END.

Your governments and your media will try to disguise us.
This will fail. All avenues have been covered by us. Your
media will have no choice but to portray the TRUTH for
it shall be there for all to see.

Friends of earth. Do not be afraid. We beseech you to
TRUST that we come to bring the downfall of those
who have misintentions for the well being of your planet.
If we do not intervene now … as has been planned for
eons of your earth time … then we fear it would be too late.

WE ASK YOU TO ACCEPT US IN LOVE.

FOR THAT IS WHY WE COME.

The sayings that your world have been aware of via your
movie screens etc, were not merely make believe. We have
been planting and watering seeds of Truth on your planet
in preparation for these days.

FOR INDEED WE COME IN PEACE.

Fill your souls with TRUST in that knowledge.
We are your brothers and sisters from other places.

Our technology is far advanced. There are those in high
places of ruling that KNOW full well of this. Therefore
they know that there would be little point trying to
'pretend' that they need weapons to destroy us.

On this day that we appear, we ask you to listen only to
your hearts and NOT to the words of those who shall be
in great fear of losing their power.

For too long your world has lived under a cloud that most
of you have been unaware of. If you were to KNOW the
Truths of what has been hidden from you, you would be
appalled and in great disbelief.

It is time for your souls to be allowed to be who they are.
The veil is to be removed.

BE OF JOY. IT IS A TIME FOR THAT. YOU SHALL
KNOW OF THIS AS YOUR HEART ACCEPTS THE
TRUE REASON FOR OUR VISIT. TO BRING YOU
AN UNDERSTANDING OF LOVE. KNOW THIS.

We choose to leave it at that. Be vigilant. Keep your eyes
to the skies. Keep LOVE in your heart.

WE … THE FEDERATION OF LIGHT … SIGN OFF,
GIVING YOU ENCOURAGEMENT AND HOPE AS
WE BEGIN THE ASCENSION INTO THE NEW WORLD.

Each one of you has chosen to be here for this ascension.
Choose now whether your human form will … Accept it
through LOVE or Reject it through FEAR.

May the Highest aspect of your soul fill you with Light as
you move bravely forward.

Gratitude to each one as they assist us in the cause.

Highly Illogical.

ooooo ooooooo owowow ooooooo ooooooo

made me laugh...

The Story of Regan's Tree!

So Regan's tree needed to be cut down today, and here is the story (with photos and video):

First look how huge this thing is (notice the two main sections):


Since it has to be cut down in two sections, here is the first. All goes well...





the Obama sign still stands strong!


everything looks good. now for part 2:




are you ready to see the second limb go down!?







after things go bad (like this huge tree falling on Regan's roof).
things go worse....
while cutting that big limb away that Regan is holding above.... It falls and lands on John (his neighbors) foot!!!! these photos tell the story:




here comes the fire truck!







and the aftermath...





Obama sign no longer stands strong...
