11:55 am - Why I usually sneer in photos of me...


I look like a goof, right? right?
(shot by Royce Bannon on my camera)

Ya know what'd be cool? If y'all posted a picture of yourself smiling in this entry. Maybe it'll help my confidence in smiling.

9:41 pm - KEG may not make good music, but he knows it
This dude, Keg-The Lone Ranger of Rock was at the Seattle auditions of "America's Got Talent"... he does have a talent... it's not making music though, he's not completely horrible though, but he has a talent that is much better.

Finding music. Scroll to below the SHIT-FACED Radio to some great free downloads of bands I've never heard of, but all found enjoyable.

8:54 pm - NBC Promotions confuse
How is The Jonas Brothers a selling point for Jimmy Fallon's show? Totally seems like the wrong demographic.

7:49 pm - My Livejournal dying
At least it feels that way. Poor dying journal... gasping for air... struggling to survive... losing the will to live. It needs food, air, water, but I'm all out.

4:11 pm - Looking at Comics Coming my Way
I've decided to try something quick. Under the following cut will be a list of the 63 comics coming to me in my bi-weekly shipment for July of June books. I'm going to quickly look at and try to explain my reasoning behind each book and at the same time, you might find something to buy for yourself. These will not be reviews, just quick stuff.

Comics and stuff )

2:18 pm - Using a Meme to create a Post
I've said before I'm not into memes, I won't take tests, but sometimes a "meme" is a good prompt to just write things that you would on your own, but just haven't... so here are Five "words" (some of them are more concepts than words) from [info]flisleshnitz. If you want to give me other words for prompts, I'd be willing, but for now... enjoy this, I hope.
The "words" were:
Graffiti
Photography
1 of your adventure stories!
New York City
Your WTSHTF plan! (when the shit hits the fan)

11:20 pm - Eureka + Warehouse 13 + ECW
Season Premiere of EUREKA was excellent. Clever, intriguing, and fun. Sad that ANDY won't be joining the cast (or so it seems), but glad to have this quirky show back on the air and expect good things.

Second episode of WAREHOUSE 13 established the show has a lot going for it and with quality writing can be a really strong show. Yes, we've had the odd male/female pairing before, and the investigation of the supernatural, but if the actors are fun and the plots interesting, who cares? I'll be there... I even like the campy special effects. I think they have a certain kind of charm, plus I like that there's character development!

Sadly... ECW wasn't so great. A little Vladmir Koslov goes a long way... a LOT of Vladmir Koslov ruins a show. Plus I was hoping we'd get some debuts instead of just further efforts from only three of the current new talents. Plus, Sheamus really needs his last name. Sheamus O'Shaunessy rolls of the tongue... just Sheamus... sounds retarded. Naofumi Yamamoto could have a real future as Yoshi Tatsu, as long as they never break him like they did with Jimmy Yang or Shoichi Funaki. I have nothing to say about Tyler Reks... there are some amazing talents down in FCW so ready to come up... Joe Henning, Drew McIntyre, a repackaged Steve Lewington, Kaval (Lo-Ki)... any one of those would be great additions to the roster.

11:04 pm - [wrestling] Music of Tommy Dreamer
I have no f'n clue how I never realized or noticed this... but Tommy Dreamer's WWF/WWE theme music is exactly the same song he actually had while in the original ECW. Well, not the SAME song, but a Jim Johnston instrumental re-interpretation of it.

That song? "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains. How I never realized that they never changed Dreamer's music I'll never know.

10:36 pm - On the fence on G.I. Joe live action
Plus= RAIN as Storm Shadow
Minus = Marlon Wayans?!?!?
Minus= Oh wait, that's not RAIN... it's Byung-hun Lee?!
Plus= Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Heavy Duty
Minus = The newest TV trailer isn't very thrilling
Plus= The online trailer is a bit better.

Not that any of this matters, I suck when it comes to even going to movies. I still haven't seen UP, or Public Enemies...

5:44 pm - An interesting change to Google Images
Do a google image search on say... the color red.

There's this new filter, that will allow you see only red images that are marked as red.

an image showing the new color filer for google image search

Not sure how I or anyone can use this to any real purpose, but it's interesting.

5:26 pm - Mark Harmon and a mustache....
First time I'm seeing this episode of NCIS and I gotta say...
that mustache does him no good.

He looks... just really weird. Like Kevin Kline's clone where they messed up a bit.

1:45 pm - The Sumos of Wrestling
Recently I discovered that the wrestlers who were titled YOKOZUNA and RIKISHI were not meant to be names for the characters, but actually representative of their ranking/titles in a Sumo class. As in collegiate and olympic wrestling, boxing and even MMA, Sumo wrestling has weight and level classes.

Yokozuna is the highest of ranks and has very varied history. Rikishi is the general term for a Sumo. I don't know why I didn't know this for years, but there it is. Quite random I admit... but something that was on my mind.

As an extra note, these two "sumos" are/were cousins.

As an extra extra note, here is recent footage of Solofa Fatu, Jr. now going by simply KISHI (instead of RIKISHI) in the Chile's RRL.

11:56 pm - Shwayze and Cisco like Miami Vice
for some extra flavor, another Nick Goosin video with a preview single off the next SCHWAYZE album. Shwayze and Adler kicking it old school, new school and next school up in this one. Hot shit. Fall can't come sooner... in terms of music.

11:45 pm - No better time for Mickey Avalon than almost midnight
They used "My Dick" on HUNG tonight, so it made me wonder what was up with the dude who worked on that. There's just so much music, it's hard to keep track of it all.

He actually put a new single out six months ago and it's kick ass.

10:25 pm - ACME Comes Alive
TRU.TV has a lot of horrendous programming....

BUT!

I just randomly found this show, MAN VS. CARTOON while surfing and it is a GENIUS!

An engineering company tries to make the stuff Wile E. Coyote used to try and catch the Road Runner with actually work! Awesome!
