Hedgetea vs. Mick O 1977: The Long Lost Video

January 23rd, 2009 · 3 Comments · Uncategorized

Since no one believes my tales of battling Hedgetea in the ’70s, here is a video from one of our fights in Morocco in 1977. It’s very shaky, the grain is atrocious, and my transfer from Super 8 to digital was hurried. Hedgetea is in his signature “white warrior” costume, I am in black.

“50 Ways To Leave Your Lover” - Paul Simon
I just wanted to make sure nobody at all missed my favorite NFL player’s wondrous miscue. His name is Dan Orlovsky, and he’s a backup QB for the worst team in the league. Greatest player ever!. Ever? Seriously, are all Orlo(v)skys really absent-minded? Is it a genetic [...]

Janelle Monae: Pinball Wizard?

August 14th, 2008 · 1 Comment · music

While listening to Janelle Monae’s EP about sci-fi robot love-affair-gone-wrong something started nagging me about the track “Many Moons” (play it). Something about it seemed so familiar, so elusive deep in my childhood memories. Then, I finally got it.
I never knew this was the Pointer Sisters! Sesame Street was the best. Is it an homage? [...]

Chesney Likes the Deep Ball?

Play this while you read:  “Summertime” - Kenny Chesney
You’ve gotta feel a little bad for superstar country singer Kenny Chesney. He’s on top of the country game, living the good life. Yet, he’s seemingly always facing some Brokebackish speculation about his choice of after-dark hayloft companionship. Even when he goes out of his way to [...]

The Rainbow Conspiracy: Dbootsthediva

August 6th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Uncategorized

I’m not normally one for wacko conspiracy theories, but this one is eerie. This can not be natural! We as a nation must ask ourselves what the hell is going on?!?!

Update: The original source of this video was “dbootsthediva” on Youtube. She has dozens of other videos depicting perceived evidence of shady military-industrial experiments — [...]

YouTube - Rafter - ZZZpenchant
One of my favorite quirky indie tracks of the year is “zzzpenchant” by Rafter, or maybe his name is Rafter Roberts? Craptastic indie video above, just keep tapping your foot and you’ll get through it.  Dorky redheads gotta stick together. Real talk!  Check out his Myspace. He’s from San Diego, and [...]

Video Flashback: MC 900 Ft. Jesus - If I Only Had A Brain (Spike Jonze)

July 11th, 2008 · 2 Comments · media, music

Total classic from back in the day. Whatever happened to MC 900 Ft Jesus? He was sharp, had a great flow, and some of the cleverest lyrics around.
Sez Wikipedia:
Griffin eventually became disillisioned with the music industry, and following unproductive sessions for his fourth album felt he has taken his style of music as far as [...]
