David Blaine "street magic"

I am not sure if these guys are professionals but this clip is pretty well done. It appears to all be one take, while also being pretty damn funny.

The music is okay. The story telling is remarkable.

blogger profiles: an expose'

in this edition of 'blogs of glory', we deconstruct blogger profiles to guess the content of their blogs. keep in mind that all of these bloggers are "Consultants". let's begin:

    babieca
  • location: madrid, spain
  • interests: La sierra, Internet, las mujeres, los amigos, el vermouth
  • analysis: babieca, a spaniard, loves the internet, women, friends, vermouth, and either mountain ranges or saws. i'm going to go with saws. to recap: besides women and friends, which are the interests of everyone, babieca enjoys saws, awful liquor, and the internet.
  • blog guess: either utterly depressing or utterly horrifying.
  • actual blog:"el blog de babieca". for those non-spanish speakers, here is your freetranslation.com translation: "Hello, friends and friends. This it is the blog of Dolt, but I am not going to write nothing for the time being because I have opened it to be able to participate with all the characteristics technologically advanced in the blog of Tsebarantan."


    abigail
  • location: Fairytale, Dollhouse, USA.
  • about me: littlest sister, homeschooled, dishwasher unloader, baseboard cleaner, brown eyes and brown hair
  • interests: reading, playing with my dollhouse, playing outdoors, cooking, baking, and the LORD.
  • analysis: sad, tortured abigail, a modern-day "annie," lives in the oft-forgotten state of dollhouse (DH), america's 38th state, where she is forced by cruel schoolmarm step-parents to unload the dishwasher, cook, bake, clean the baseboard, and pray, daily. blog guess: mom pretends to be abigail blogging about jesus to brag to her even creepier friends about her success in raising an angel.
  • actual blog: "a wise word from a young lady". you be the judge.


    gus
  • location: Tempe, AZ.

  • about me: Male Wire Fox Terrier living in Tempe, AZ
  • interests: squirrels, walking, dingo bones, snacks, sleeping, listening to NPR, shopping
  • analysis: gus seems to have little to offer the blog world, other than perhaps political commentary gleaned from his many hours spent snacking on dingo bones while listening to Diane Rehm.
  • actual blog: "on the go with gus". again, i am correct.

ahoy jackbloggers,

allow me to apologize again for my fat, school-encrusted absence. i must confess, the peanut guy has been taking up what free blogging time i have of late. all of a sudden he's getting questions aplenty, from real people.

just two items of note:

  • although our posting frequency at an all-time low, we are achieving record high levels of traffic. wtf?
  • the jackshoppe has also been busy, and i'm pretty sure all the purchases have been by complete strangers. ken wall clock, ken trucker hat (!)... let's just say someone in london is all kenned out these days.
alas, it looks like second life's jackfarm and its chief farmhand, Crotch Chemistry, will have to wait until the summer. i'll see you there.

andrew and andi in the news

the martin's new skate shop gets a write up in the enquirer.

that baby is so fucking adorable.

Rapper Big Moe, 33, Dies

Big Moe, who rapped and sang, was a member of the late DJ Screw's rap collective the Screwed Up Click. DJ Screw died of a heart attack in 2000 after a reported overdose of codeine-laced cough syrup.

Big Moe often rapped about the drug and the titles of his first two albums made reference to it. His first album was called "City of Syrup" and his most successful offering was 2002's "Purple World," for the color most often associated with the drug.

Big Moe's top two singles, "Barre Baby" and "Purple Stuff" were odes to the drug. He also released a third album, "Moe Life," in 2003.

Defined
1.
purple stuff

A drink enjoyed by Dirty South ballaz made by mixing perscription cough medicine containing codiene and soda

What's dat up in my cup? Dat purple stuff!



2.
purple stuff

A drink alternative offered in lieu of Sunny Delight. Nobody really knows quite what it tastes like because of how often it is overlooked. It resides in the back of the refrigerator and is usually offered as part of a long list of other beverages that will always end with Sunny D, whereupon all those present get excited and invariably choose the Sunny D.

Only one person is ever documented drinking the purple stuff. He was a little fat kid with glasses wearing a "No Fear" shirt. All of the more althetic kids got in front of him a drank the entire bottle of Sunny D. He was left with the purple stuff. He drank some... and was never seen again.
