Mario Theme with Beer Bottles

These guys must have been really bored to think up something this cool.

Enjoy the theme from Mario played on beer bottles using a remote control car.

The Passing of Proposition 8
no-pr8-for-you.jpg
This is the second article I've written about the passing of California Proposition 8. The first, was 3/4's written when I realized I needed a day or two to let my anger subside, and think more clearly about what the passing of Proposition 8 means for our country. And while I don't intend this article to be a soap-box preach, I hope it'll spur a conversation, one in which answers can be determined.

Johnny Five is Alive
topsecret_ybnby.jpg
You'll be happy to know I received correspondence from one Johnny Wright. I can't go into the details of how I got it or where it was sent from, but I will say that Mr. Wright is alive (and apparently capable of using a pen.)

Johnny, wherever you are, know that we miss you. Good luck. Write if/when you can. And let's hope drying out in Malibu your hiatus is going well.

Laughter is good for the "Soul"

"Soul Men" *** (out of four): Bernie Mac and Samuel L. Jackson deliver plenty of smiles, laughs, and (of course) soul in this welcome addition to the road movie canon.

soulmen[1].jpg

"Soul Men" centers on two former back-up singers, Louis Hinds (Samuel L. Jackson) and Floyd Henderson (Bernie Mac), who had achieved modest success as a part of the 60's soul music act "Marcus Hooks and the Real Deal". Unfortunately for them, their lead singer, Marcus Hooks (a nice cameo by John Legend), left them to fend for themselves and found fame and fortune as a solo act. Henderson and Hinds were not so lucky, spending thirty years sinking into the footnotes of music history, until they are given the opportunity to reclaim past glory by performing at the star-studded tribute concert for the recently deceased Hooks. They just have to survive their long-standing feud and a drive from California to New York to get there.

Born to Be Mild

"Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa in IMAX" *** (out of four): With this, the second film in the Madagascar series, Dreamworks Animation gives us more of the same. And by that I mean a fun-filled romp through the wild with our friendly foursome of zany zoosters.

When is "more of the same" a compliment? When it describes a sequel to a successful and enjoyable original animated film. Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, the follow-up to 2005's Madagascar, falls squarely into this camp. The lovably quirky original foursome of zoo animals from the first film is back, along with their friends, the penguins, the monkeys, the lemur king Julien (and his two sidekicks) plus an entourage of new characters.

Save the Pancreas
curepcpeope.jpg

Pancreatic cancer is real fucking scary.
It kills 96% of the people that get it.
There's no early test, prevention or cure.
Live just 7 months after diagnosis and you've beaten the odds of survival.
Worse, pancreatic cancer research constitutes less than 2% of the National Cancer Institute's budget.
Why I am writing about this? Cause November is Pancreatic Cancer Awareness Month.
So I urge you learn more about this deadly cancer at these sites

404 Error

Whoops! We're not sure if it was your fault or ours (probably yours, we're good that way) but you've encountered a FATAL ERROR!!! Or at least, a pretty grumpy one.

Specifically the Latvians who run our server are telling us in a weird accent "Smarty error: [in evaluated template line 6]: syntax error: unrecognized tag 'mtfeed' (Smarty_Compiler.class.php, line 580), Comrade!". Ain't life a bitch.

If you want to vent, email our slacker of a webmaster. Otherwise, we'd suggest going back, using search, or clicking around aimlessly on this page like a moron.

Have fun.
