Accidental Dicking. Whoops!

I had a very eventful fun weekend full of Thai food, live rock music, haircuts, random dive bars, good friends visiting and a bunch of other ill shit. Undoubtedly though, the highlight was seeing not one, but two ACCIDENTAL DONGS! What a miracle!

Hold That Chicken!

Wow, this guy sure loves chicken. See the problem here is he might break a window out of your car, and steal your chicken, but he can't help it as he is addicted to it, absolutely addicted.

My favorite part is the middle section where he raps about chicken: "You touch my chicken, I'll beat you up!" Man, this guy is an absolute fiend - do not, I repeat do not get between this dude and his chicken! HA!

Weird Al, The Hippest Guy On Earth!

I found out today via indie music site Pitchfork, that "Weird Al" was hand picked by the band Godspeed You! Black Emperor to play the All Tomorrow's Parties festival. What the hell is going on here? When did "Weird Al" Yancovic become "cool," and chosen to play a festival that normally features the newest, nosiest obscure bands? He also sang live with The Pixies a little earlier this year, which was also great.

I for one couldn't be happier for the guy. His parodies have always been hilarious, and he's always seemed border-line insane, but in a fantastic way.

Best of luck to you Al!!!

This beauty appeared a couple of days ago right in our neighborhood. In fact, this photo was taken from our house. I tried to find the end of it so I could get that pot of gold (see the post below), but was unable to locate it. Next time.

Where Da Gold At?

This is a great news report about the legendary Irish leprechaun. Somehow that little fella managed to make his was to Mobile, Alabama.

Here's a few of my favorite quotes from the clip:

"It could be a crackhead"

"This is a special leprechaun flute"

"I wanna know where da gold at"

Celebrity Twins: Number Three

Here's the third installment of my new popular series, "Celebrity Twins." I decided to use a "look-a-like" for my dear friend Joel. He was the first one to respond to my "twin," so I thought I'd put his up. Thanks Joel!

Also, is this a match, or not?

BUFFALOS IN ORBIT REUNION!!!

This 4th of July, legendary acoustic/comedy/pop duo BUFFALOS IN ORBIT will be reuniting in Crescent City, CA.

The Best Drummer EVER!

This one is kind of old news as far as the Internet goes. From what I can tell, it's been out for at least a month. It was only last week, however, that someone at my work "turned me on" to it. Today I received an e-mail from a "friend" stating:

Ben - The next Vague Prophets show Victor and I go to we better see this sort of entertainment, asshole. Love you.

I guess it felt like fate, and I knew this video had to be posted on my blog.

For those of you with extremely short attention spans, it start to get REALLY good at about 1:05.
