King of the land
About 20 years ago some friends and I got busted drinking beer in the Disneyland parking lot. We'd only been in the car for a couple minutes when security showed up and we hadn't seen any patrols, so we couldn't understand how they knew what was up.
As security drove us to the Disneyland Jail to call our parents, they told us that the parking lot was designed so that the windshields of the cars all faced the Disneyland Hotel. On the top floor of the hotel was a room... [more]

Abortion as Art
Even if you think this is legitimate as art, why the hell would you need to do it repeatedly over 9 months? It seems like you would get everything you need for the project the first time.

The Torture Playlist
I bet Bruce Springsteen was delighted to discover that his mournful tale of a Vietnam veteran returning to an economically depressed and unsympathetic nation is being used as jingoistic torture by criminals who aren't clever enough to listen to his lyrics, but only clever enough to know that USA is in the title.
I doubt he's too shocked-- that was pretty much the reaction the song got when it was released (except for the torture part.)

Equal Opportunity Geeks
"See, that's a selling point for telecasters-- their more streamlined heads make for easier removal after an ass-ramming."
If you play based on what's least-uncomfortable to have rammed up your ass, you end up as one of those weenies with a Chapman stick.
And now I finally understand the Dean headstock design-- it prevents ass-ramming entirely.

Meghan McCain on the trail.
"Very heavy," deadpans father McCain, 71, when asked what he thinks of the blog.
He's trying to relate to the youth-- kids today call things "heavy" when they like them. He just wants them to know he's "hep".

Loser gets creamed
But in the end we settled on three choices: number three ... the Sprouts, sent in by Mrs Vicious of Hastings... very nice ; number two..... the Phlegms... from Mrs Childmolester of Worthing; but the winner was undoubtedly from Mrs No-Supper-For-You from Norwood in Lancashire... Miserable Fat Belgian Bastards.

I mean really, how much bleaching do you get? What does it look like?
If you use too much, it becomes transparent.
And I thought it would get a hole in it.

A Genetic Basis for 'Race'
I thought I was going to regret plowing all the way through that "most europeans" link, but then I came to this:
Behold the massive crack infusion flowing into your arm. (Or at least trying to. Remember, kids, you can always just pull the needle out.)
...and it made it all worthwhile.

How to win a fist fight
So tkchrist, what did you think of his advice to stand with your strong hand/foot forward? I'd always been told to do the opposite, and it seems like you'd throw a better punch driving off your rear foot instead of the front one.

RPM Challenge 2008
I didn't have the guts to give this a shot last year, but I think I'll give it a go. The worst that could happen is I end up with a bunch of new material for the band.

"IT'S THE COPS!!"
I remember it being OK to have alcohol at parties if there were adults around when I was young too delmoi-- seems a much more sane policy to me. Better to have somebody responsible around.
This reminds me of the time we tried this strategy at a TSOL show in Hollywood when the cops came in. Everybody sat down and acted peaceful, but that doesn't last long when the Mace begins to fly. I'm glad it worked out better for them.

I agree that the Myers & DHS racism is a much bigger problem then something some bounty hunter said, but I think you're missing a level of twistedness there. The message he left on his son's answering machine was more "I can't have you dating that n-word, because we say n-word a lot around here and if you bring that n-word around and she gets offended she might say something to the Enquirer, and I can't risk my career." It's kind of hard to write that off as displaced anger if you... [more]

Keep the crafts at home, please.
But, maybe I'm just having trouble seeing the differences here between the two incidents.
The difference is in how the two people reacted when confronted by authority. She stayed calm, complained about being detained but didn't struggle or fight, and cooperated with the police while they checked out the circuit board and put her under arrest. My guess is that the charges will eventually be dropped, or she'll get some probation-- a slap on the... [more]

Famous First Words
Don't say you love me if it's just a rumor
Don't say a word if there is any doubt

I just don't get the Cheap Trick one
If you listen to the whole Budokan concert you will. Every song intro is like that-- "It's... time... for... Southern... Girls" or "I... need... your love. I... need... your... ...love." I like those guys, but it's kind of annoying after a while.

The Theiving Magpie: Jimmy Page's Dubious Recording Legacy
If Jimi Hendrix had put his name on "Watchtower", everyone would recognize that as a shitty move. Being influenced is one thing, but outright theft of someone else's work makes you a grade-A asshole.

I might be with you on that, Smed, if I was a fan. I never particularly cared for their music, but I had some respect for them creatively. After learning about this, that's gone.

The Cramps: Live at Napa State Mental Hospital
This is great stuff, I never heard about this show before. Weird to see Lux without a big bottle of red wine in his hand.
I usually say she was named after the bass player for the Cramps
Poison Ivy is a guitar player, and a damn cool one at that. Always has been. In the early days they didn't use a bass.

Inner lip tattoos
redteam: yes, they go away pretty quickly. A friend had "Anarchy" tatooed on his lower lip, and it was illegible within 5 years or so.
He did it because he was told it was illegal to tattoo someone above the neck, so of course he had to have one.

He'll never die unless he quits drugs, at which point I give him about a week.
