RIP George Carlin

George Carlin has died today at age 71 of heart failure. He has had heart problems for a while. George Carlin is one of the most funny & controversial comedians of all time! He is famous for the bit about the 7 words you cant say on TV (Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, Cocksucker, Motherfucker, and Tits) He was actually arrested in Milwaukee WI for using those words during a show, the case was thrown out do the 1st ammendment right of free speech. Mr. Carlin was in numerous movies (Including some of my favs Bill & teds Excellent adventure, & The Kevin smith Flicks) He was ont he tonight show 123 times. He will be dearly missed by all of his fans & people who performed w/ him. He is truly an American legend, we'll miss you George!

Ice-T Vs Soulja Boy

Recently on a mix tape Ice-T was recorded saying Soulja Boy destroyed hip hop, Soulja boy responded in a 7 minute video basically calling Ic-T old & saying you havent released in album in 10 years & that hes an actor etc. Now Ice-T was right! Soulja boy doesnt even too hip hop, he does pop-hop, and repetitve song w/ a beat that people seem to enjoy, its GARBAGE! Ice-T is a real MC, he was a pioneer in hip hop in the late 80s & early 90s, Soulja boy is makin that money, but he hasnt done anything or hip hop 
here is the link to the videos 
Ice T 1st Then Soulja Boy

Torture is Wrong.....

So I'm driving home from work last night & in front of a church is a huge black banner w/ white letters that says "Torture is Wrong" is that up for debate? Was there a large segment of the population that was wondering about the moral relevancy of torture? I think not.

Bicyclists

Now I like to ride my bicycle, though the tires are currently flat, its great exercise & its really soothing to do. My problem lies in 3 areas. I will list them & speak of each one separately
1. They Don't use the sidewalk & thus fuck up traffic
2. They don't follow the same rules as cars
3. The guys that ride to work.

My biggest beef is when im driving home from work, its rush hour, its hot, traffic is slow as it is, and we are having to cross the center line because some dipshit on a bicycle is taking up half a lane when there is a perfectly good sidewalk right next to them. Now in some cities it is not legal to ride on the sidewalk (Thanks Ypsi!) but most it is legal. Another thing that pisses me off is when im in my car or on my Harley & i stop for a red light & a bicycle runs right through it. I honestly think people should get tickets for that, if they are on the sidewalk I under stand, because traffic laws don't apply, but if you are gonna be in the position to fuck up traffic (see #1) then you better follow the same rules. Now the guys that ride bicycles to work, the don't really piss me off, but OH i have questions....Do you really need to rock the spandex & the streamlined helmet & the helmet mirror? I mean what do you do for work? are you a wrestler? that would explain the spandex, also id have to imagine that you are pretty funk nasty when ya get to work, thatd be awful to have to sit next to them, funk emanating over the cubicle walls, oh well its all good cyclists, as Queen says, GET ON YOUR BIKES & RIDE!

Flip Flopped

Mlive.com & Espn are reporting that Pistons head coach Flip Saunders, has been fired from the Head coaching job of the Detroit Pistons. They have yet to name a successor but it appears that assistant coach & former Pistons player Micahel Curry will be named head coach at a press conference later this week.

Now I never had a problem w/ Flip per say. He just didnt get to the finals. In Detroit we expect to get to the finals. He always a bad reputation as a poor playoff coach, we saw that here a lot in Det. weather its not winning the games he had too, or the ability to control his players (Sheed comes to mind, though in defense no coach has really been good w/ Sheed lol) I predict big changes for the lineup this year, the era of the best starting 5 in the league may be over, but we have plenty of young talent waiting in the wings.

RIP Coach Mulkey....

On June 18 2007 Coach Lewis Mulkey was killed in his 2nd job as a fireman. He was The coach of the Summerville SC HS Basketball team. When he took over the program he told his kids that theyd have a State championship in 5 years. That was 5 years ago. The coach cared for his kids, he didnt have children of his own, the new coach Tee Neuman, knew this year would be special,The fire dept gave the team a firemans helmet w/ coach Mulkeys name on it, they took it to every game.  Summerville entered the playoffs at 20-3, And made it to the state championship game. With 1.7 seconds left, Summerville up 2 at the line one of the students missed the front end of a 1 and 1. The other team grabbed the rebound, dribbled twice and heaved a 65 foot shot, it went in, Summervilles hopes were dashed, just like that a miracle shot ended their season...but wait, the play was under review....It was determined the shot came after the final horn had sounded. Summerville won! There was so much jubilation from the team! Coach Mulkeys widowed wife, Lauren, came & got in the team photo w/ a championship medal wrapped around her husbands helmet. The game was over, but the werent done yet, they went to coaches grave and hung out the rest of he night, congrats Summerville, you guys earned it......

Luc Bourdon...Motorcycle Death.

Luc Bourdon, Player for the Vancouver Cannucks & also their AHL affiliate died in a motorcycle crash yesterday, it brings up the issue of "Are motorcycles Dangerous?" The question is a complicated one. The answer is Yes...but only if you are not prepared, Luc bought his bike 3 months ago, as of right now, the type of bike he was on isnt known, but he being a young kid, with a ton of money I have to assume it was a high performance sport bike. It seems he lost control in a turn & hit a semi head on. Before everyone jumps on the motorcycles are dangerous bandwagon, it is important to task these questions. 1. Was he licensed? 2. Had he taken a motorcycle safety class? 3. What kind of bike?
Now if he had taken the class & was licensed he probably doesnt go over the center line, because hed of known proper cornering techniques, obviously circumstances arise, sometimes ones that are unavoidable, but if you have proper training these situations can at least be avoided, or the severity limited. All this being said, over the last few years there have been a lot of accidents involving sports figures on bike
1.Jay Williams, G Chicago Bulls had a Sportbike 2 days, crashed it foot & knee injuries etc. hasnt played in the NBA, no training or Lic,
2. Kellen Winslow JR TE Cleveland Browns, crashed motorcycle, Knee injury, unlic. & no safety class, returned to the NFL & has been a Pro Bowl Player
3. Ben Rothlisburger QB Pittsburgh Steelers- Sportbike rider, exp, no lic, no helmet, broken Jaw returned to the NFL
4. Diego Corrales- Boxer, sportbike crash on the vegas strip, going 120 rear ended a car, Drunk, he didnt survive.
Now people always say why do they let him ride, if I was a pro athlete id ride, ive taken precautions to help insure I know how to operate my machine.
The death of Luc Bourdon is a tragic reminded to the importance of being well trained to handle your machine.

Religion...Whats the deal?

OK....I have been fighting about writing this post for a LONG TIME. Due to my feelings on the subject (they aren't like everyone Else's) I am absolutely tired of the way religion plays a part in the day to day running of this country. I firmly believe the world would be better without religion. There wouldn't be so many wars, there wouldnt be so many travesties carried out in gods name (televangelists come to mind, also criminals that said God made them do it) Now let me just come out & say right now that I have no ill feelings to someone who practices religion as long as they don't preach to me, It doesn't concern or affect me. I have many friends who practice religion & I don't have any problems w/ them. It always seems like the most religious people are the most awful. They were serial killers who found God & now they are good people? I think not! Also there are so many hypocrites out there when it comes to religion, just because you go to church doesn't make you a good person per say. Ive seen parents use god as a disciplinary tool, "if you do something bad God knows" I was like WTF? I wanted to go to that kid & tell him that God isn't real lol but I didn't. Now I am an Atheist, I don't believe in a God or a single being that looks over our lives etc, Im not one to call someone out for having us pray I just sit quietly w/ my hand together & think about hot chicks or something unholy lol. Im not a super die hard atheist, I wont protest churches, I wont fight for this belief, its just how I feel. With the beliefs however it does bother me when people are against something that is wrong in the Bible. Perfect example is gay marriage, people are against it for many reasons, but one I hear very often is its says its wrong in the Bible, the Bible is written by man.....lets just be real....i consider it to be the most popular fiction book ever. it sounds like something JR Tolkien wrote lol. The other day I called a customer at work to get payment for an ad, she answered the phone "Praise the lord" I was kinda shocked lol, but whatever, now if that was me trying to preach what i feel maybe "God isnt real, can i help you?" then there'd be a upheaval. Like i said i dont really care if you like religion or not, the 1 places that religion doesnt belong is The White House, if we start running this country by the Bible shit will hit the fan! Now if you want to live your life by the bible, cool, if you go to church every sunday, cool, but you wont see me there..

American Idol

David Cook is the winner. I was actually surprised because I thought David Archuletta was more of the cookie cutter mold that is American Idol. I also wanted DA to win because I dont like him as much as Cook, WHAT? you ask? American Idol has become a pop factory. What happened to Rueben Studdard, Taylor Hicks, & many others, infact THE most sucessful AI alum is Carrie Underwood, shes in country music, infact many of the most successful Idols are in Country music, Josh Gracin, Kelly Pickler, Bucky Covington, Obviously Carrie Underwood, Is this Country Idol? I think so. Only contestants who have sold big not in country are Chris Daughtry & Kelly Clarkson. Thats it (that i can think of) So lets hope David Cook breaks the mold, he is a talented guy, but 1st he has to get past that one cookie Cutter album that AI makes you do. The worst thing about AI is now All the Top 3 get contracts, Why you ask? Because of all the money they lost on chris Daughtry, from 2 seasons ago, he was 3rd, made a good album & got a boat load of money, none of which went to American Idols People. Now dont get me wrong i am a fan of Idol. Ive watched every season starting w/ season 2, but Im growing tired of it, they need to sing more current music, if not AI may be on the decline.....

80s Chicks

So ever so often, you notice something that youve actually known your whole life. So im watching I love the 80s 3-D, & GOD DAMN 80s style & 80s chicks are the worst shit ever! (40s chicks are the hottest) Now the 80s were a time of strugglin, I mean the economy was great, there were tons of jobs & things were good, but the majority of 80s life was strugglin. The clothing was awful, the hair was worse, the music had some great songs but in general it sucked (except hair metal of course) The movies in general blew (except like, Top Gun, Goonies, Vacation, & a few others) Im really glad I GREW UP In the 90s, I mean the 90s had some bad shit too, (DANCE Music!, fuckin Savage Garden) but I love the 90s I loved most of the music, & the fashion etc. So im conclusion down w/ the 80s!
