Dead Saddam Video

January 9, 2007

For some reason I find this video more offensive than the hanging video. It’s kind of disgusting, but I believe that many people want to see it, so here it is.


Acknowldeged by Grams1944

NOTE — Click the on the video after the message comes up that you have to watch it on YouTube.

I am proud to say that I am now a Grams1944 subscriber and I can’t wait to get her viewpoints on the real issues. She actually calls out my YouTube screenname “Slabowski” and denies my request for a T-Shirt. She also mentions that her cat Mr. Pugsley passed away.

It seems like she focuses alot on normal everyday stuff and this YouTube virtual reality. I am going to try and get her to respond to questions about OUR world. I have requested her viewpoint on the saddamn hanging. I think with some coaxing, she could be 100 times more interesting than she is now.

Isn’t she kind of like a mix between Andy Dick and The Church Lady (Dana Carvey)?


Why not make an example of Paris Hilton ?

January 9, 2007

It appears that Paris Hilton has plead innocent to charges of drunk driving back in Sept of 06. She was on her way to get a In-N-Out Burger and said that she had only 1 margarita.

Her spokesman has said that her blood alcohol level registered “the absolute minimum amount of alcohol in your system that would justify an arrest.”  Doesn’t that pretty much say it all ? That statement seems to indicate that some leeway should be given.

I see lots of drunk driving advertising on TV, so it would seem that alot of our tax dollars is being spent on handling the drunk driving issue. They could actually get alot of “free advertising” of the best kind by making an example of Paris Hilton. Doesn’t that send a message that if she can’t get away with it, you definitely won’t ?

The sentence could be as stiff as 6 months in jail. That won’t happen, but that’s some reality TV I wouldn’t mind watching – The Not So Simple Life.

In-N-Out burgers, by the way, are definitely the best burgers out there.


Scarface – Excellent Game

January 9, 2007

I finished playing Scarface for the Xbox, and I’d have to say it’s one of the best games of this type that I have played. I was prepared for it to be garbage like most games based on movies. But this one was actually far better than I could have expected and I prefer it over the Grand Theft Auto series. (Yes)

It is very similar to GTA in many ways, but they actually fixed things that annoyed me about GTA. The biggest being the targeting which is atrocious on GTA.

One aspect that shines head and shoulders above GTA is the voice acting and the attitude of Tony Montana. They do a good job of  making sure that he reacts to everything vocally and even using the cellphone to call your driver is entertaining.

Many of the shootout missions are just great fun. After you kill an enemy, you can choose to taunt them, and therefore adding balls to your rage meter. When your rage meter is full, you can basically go into a rage  — unlimited ammo and invincibility. It’s very satisfying when you are in the mode, it’s a blood bath.

The Miami game world is comparable in size to Vice City, and looks better in my opinion. A nice addition is you fly to the islands to take over the columbian drug world. No need to give this a grade, you should just play it. It took me a while to get around to this one because I pretty much thought it was going to disappoint.

Nothing more satisfying that pulling out the big guns and here Tony say “Say hello to my little friend…” It never got old.


Potty Training – Pee Pee first.

January 9, 2007

Thanks to you who gave me advice on the whole potty training thing. Mandi suggested putting a tennis ball in the toilet and using that as target practice. Which is extremely good advice because it seems that I was actually focusing on the #2 first, given that I thought he had more control over holding that and it’s far more visibly clear why it needs to be in the toilet.

Tennis ball

I briefed my wife on the concept of putting a tennis ball in the toilet, and she says she remembered her parents putting cheerios in the toilet to train his brother. I’m not sure how I feel about him associating his potty with food, so I think I am going to use my veto power on this one. — Guys have veto power when it comes to male children, or at least that’s going to be the case I plead.

So what should I use ? I think I want something that can be destroyed by the urine stream. I believe that will give him a sense of power in taking a piss like a big boy. I’m gonna have to think about that, I think it’s worth waiting a day to feel confident that what I toss in my toilet is going to work.

Today he actually made a big step in that he actually assumed the position and seemed intent on taking his first piss in the toilet. It was right before his bath, so I figured I always have to pee before a shower. My wife came in and I think he got gun shy, so he abandonded the mission. Sure enough as soon as he was in the tub, he took a leak.

Which makes me wonder why my son has no reaction to fecal matter. When he was about a year and a half old, he had diarrhea and I had to get him to the bathtub. I could barely hold him because I was gagging. I was holding him as far away from my body as I could as he cried. But I wondered later why he wasn’t gagging. It’s like kids are immune to stench. I guess you have to be when 20% of the time you are walking around with a load in your diaper.


YouTube – Defending VioletKitty411

January 9, 2007

NOTE — Some of these videos no longer exist, I apologize for this.  Trust me, they are all crazy.

I think I might have stumbled upon a very disturbing side of the YouTube craze. In my short excursion on YouTube today I discovered a number of people that I am now begging someone to tell me are just acting. In some way or another all these people are connected through their profiles. You know what they say, Bird of a feather…

In case you have never had a chance to really explore the outbacks of YouTube, I will bring you one of the highlights of my trip in this one post :

Main character — VioletKitty411

From what I can gather she has been cyberstalked by somebody under numerous screennames mostly relating to balls of different sizes.

Enter ThrasherAleX — Replies to the above video to defend her honor. I contend that he might actually be scarier than the balls guy, and I really don’t think it takes too much to put a shirt on before making your video.

Enter Grams44 — She shares her wisdom on the subject and expresses her support in this situation.

Enter Grimli — Comes to defend her from his couch while smoking a pipe. REALLY!!! He offers his support and encourages the balls dude to come after him. Oh yeah, he called him “lame” too.

UpDownMostly steps to the plate — Clearly the intellectual of the group. The wall behind him makes me think that he could capable of making bombs.

mcguck is next — he brings a religious flavor to the discussion, encouraging prayer for both victim and stalker.

Wheels105 — Appears to be a stutterer/twitcher. “Either leave her alone or pay for the consequences… jerk”

Vipor231 — Turn the friggin lights on guy!!! I’m sure they are off to ensure that no one can determine where he is or maybe it’s just easier than cleaning up.

TheProphetofMayhem — Voices his opinion that VioletKitty411 should seek out a shrink.

I still can’t get past how odd it sounds when they call each other by their screennames.
