Bo Staff Styles Fools

If i was a ninja i would rock the bo staff. None of this rubbish nunchuka business, and you can stick your silly little smoke bombs where the sun dont shine, I will own you with my bo staff.

Think about it, while you stand there twirling your nunchucks behind your back like some second rate Bruce Lee, i will crack your skull with my bo staff.

While you reach into your ninja suit to pull out your shuriken, i will smash your teeth in with my bo staff.

While you unsheath your ninja sword, i will rupture your kidney with my bo staff.

Do you see a pattern yet?



Total. Bo Staff. Domination.

Feel the fear.

Cameras In Phones Have Changed The Game

Remember when you were a kid and you would get in trouble for something you didnt do? And you wished you had video evidence of you not doing it? Being a kid these days rules

Case in point:

You and your skaterat buddies are having a session at a local church, all fun and games until the Priest comes out and tells you to 'go away please' then it gets ugly. Cops are called. Lets face it, who are the cops going to believe? A bunch of skaterats or a fine upstanding member of the community like, oooh i dunno, A PRIEST!

Yep, youre screwed... but not today... you see one of your buddies had a video camera in his phone and recorded the whole thing, put it up on youtube and now the whole world sees what REALLY happenned.




OR,

You and your skaterat buddies are having a session called 'go skateboarding day', all fun and games until the Cop comes out and tells you to 'go away please' then it gets ugly. Cops arrest you. Lets face it, who are the courts going to believe? A bunch of skaterats or a fine upstanding member of the community like, oooh i dunno, A COP!

Yep, you guessed it...youre screwed... but not today... you see one of your buddies had a video camera in his phone and recorded the whole thing, put it up on youtube and now the whole world sees what REALLY happenned.




God bless NOKIA.

Mixtape Swappage Pt. 2

So im in this mixtape swap, and i have to come up with a great tape that will blow the recipient away...

Im at the crossroads, what do i put on the tape?

i was going to do a nice smooth soul mix: Curtis Mayfield, Al Green, Charles Wright etc, and then last night i saw Bon Jovi, Wanted Dead or Alive on TV.

That video is so badass... so i got to thinking: maybe ill do an 80s hair metal tape, that would be cool.

Or would a boyband tape be better? Hangin Tough by NKOTB is rad.

Or i could do a new romantic tape just to piss everyone off.

Either way: Its all or nothing.

The tape will rule. thats a fact, but in which way will it rule?

Stay Tuned...

Mixtapes Mixtapes Mixtapes

I have been invited into a mixtape swap. I can barely contain my excitement. Mixtaping is equal parts art, science and performance (which is art...)

Oh man, i cant wait to get this puppy started, I do miss the fact that it wont actually be on cassette tape, it will be on CD so there will be no pause button edits, and seeing as i don't own a mixer, it will be a compilation more than a mixtape, but Hell! i get to make a mixtape! im already thinking about the cover.

Covers are an often overlooked yet vitally important part of mixtapeology, and the correct cover can add shine to your little masterpiece.

And then theres the ever important 1st number...

oh man, this is gonna be sweeeeeeeeeeeet.

More Than Meets The Eye

OK, unless you have been living in a cave, you might have heard something about the new Transformers movie due for release on the 4th of July... Now before i start ranting, let me make one thing very clear:

I will be going to see this movie. Probably more than once too. My childhood was ruled by the Transformers, shiiit, how could it not? They are robots in disguise! that right there is the very definition of Radness. ROBOTS IN DISGUISE? ill take three.

So yeah, the director that brought us the brilliant Ben Affleck extravanganza Pearl Harbor, was trusted with what could possibly be the most culturally important movie of all time, The Transformers movie.

Im not the only one that was a little nervous upon hearing this news, but there is enough grumbling all over the interwebs about that, and after seeing the previews, well, it looks completely RAD.

Except for one glaring hole in the story so large you could drive Optimus Prime right through it.

OK, here we go:

So the Transformers are intergalactic badass robots that have the ability to transform into whatever they want, are of obviously much higher intelligence than us humans, They have advanced technologically hundreds of years past us and have traveled across space to wage war on little old planet earth, and when they get here they fight with...

Guns and Bullets.

Am i the only one who finds this completely retarded?

just sayin.

Oh man, that movie looks SWEET though!

Ricky Scroder; What a dork

Rickey Schroder is a muppet.
There i've said it, I cant stand that guy. Never could. Remember silver spoons? what a douche. from his floppy hair, to his annoying 'im so cute smile' i always wanted to push him off something high.

Then, post Silver Spoons he decided he was a real actor and was in a bunch of made-for-TV movies about ohhh, i dunno, some floppy haired poser or something. Brad pitt was in the worst of these movies, Across The Tracks.

Pitt played Ricky Schroders brother. What a joke, we are expected to believe that Tyler Durden himself shares genes with the little prince?

In the immortal words of the Fresh Prince: "Oh HELL naw!".

To make matters worse, Brad Pitt was the geeky brother and Ricky Schroder was the rebel, the badass, the black sheep.

This was made evidently clear by the fact that he wore a leather jacket and looked tough on the movie poster.



Told you so.

The premise was that the two brothers were both really good at running. And that Ricky was a tough-guy.

Thats it. Thats the movie.

What a pile of crap. And Schroder got top billing over Brad Pitt.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense.

Right Here Waiting For Radness

I hereby announce this week the official Richard Marx rules week. Richard Marx has touched all our lives in ways we are only now, 20 years later beginning to understand.

Through his poignantly subtle lyrics Richard Marx reminds us all that emotion is a fickle beast.

And his haircut is formidably rad.

Heres to you Dick Marx.




Oceans apart day after day
And I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on the line
But it doesn't stop the pain

If I see you next to never
How can we say forever

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I took for granted, all the times
That I though would last somehow
I hear the laughter, I taste the tears
But I can't get near you now

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you

I wonder how we can survive
This romance
But in the end if I'm with you
I'll take the chance

Oh, can't you see it baby
You've got me goin' crazy

Wherever you go
Whatever you do
I will be right here waiting for you
Whatever it takes
Or how my heart breaks
I will be right here waiting for you
