Okay, I have to admit I was not sure about the iPhone from day 1. As of last week you can now catalog me as a new iPhone user and I am very happy. It is amazing to get a phone and have it do what they claim it does. Have it goes as fast as they claim it goes. Be as easy to use as they say it is. Folks, bottom line is this…this phone is fast, sleek, awesome, fun and works beautiful! My e-mail flies…my websites open fast and you can view them…sorry Windows Mobile, I have gone to the other side. Except I still run my Windows XP and Windows 7 for the desktops and laptops.
I know, boring post. :-( Sorry for the lack of posts folks but it has been crazy lately. We will get back on it very soon. If you really want some material, give us some.

It is Sunday and I was bored and decided to see how short films were doing these days. I first watched this one, “What’s in the Box”, and it is pretty good actually. I was very impressed with the detail of the graphics. I can also say that this movie has better special effects than some movies that made it to the theater.
Next up we have “Escape from City 17 - Part 1″ which is also very nicely done. As soon as Part 2 becomes available we will post it up. I hope you are not as bored as I am today…because I am bored.

In the spirit of the great Eric “Beefcake” Cartman, suck my balls! The fact that you were bailed out for over $170 BILLON makes me sick. I see people losing jobs everywhere, schools making major budget cuts and letting teachers go, fire departments laying off firemen, police departments laying off officers and not to mention the whole mortgage crisis.
Yes, I hold out own government responsible for what has happened and what is still happening. The government should have walked away and let AIG work it out on their own or crumble. Mortgage lenders need to be held accountable for falsely leading folks down the road of “I have a perfect ARM rate for you”. This list could go on and on but the point is simple folks…companies should be held liable just like you and I. If I do not pay my bills, car payments or mortgage then I failed and I get nailed for it. I get penalized. But with this whole bailout of AIG, everyone is losing. I mean come on, they used over $140 MILLION to pay bonuses to higher up executives from their own bailout. 73 executives got over $1 million or more and of those 73, 11 of them high tailed it out and ran away from AIG. Now the government wants to slam them with taxes…tax them 100% and then nail them again at the end of the year for earned income taxes. Then line each one of them up along with Madoff and ship them to Florence, Colorado and we will place them into the Supermax. Make a frigging point and example out of these @$$MUNCH rapist. Yes, I called them rapist. They have raped my children of their education, my friends out of jobs and some of our friends out of their own homes.
Washington, DC…STOP BAILING OUT THE IDIOTS! If you bailout out major companies, why not bailout the small business owners??? Stupid man, just plain stupid. AGHHHHHH! I swear I will be moving to Austria very soon if this keeps up. Or better yet, move to Canada and learn to love hockey a little more.
Man we look stupid as a Country right now. *hides face* Well, at least enjoy these videos…it might help a little. I said might!

I do not like flying too much but it is better than driving long distances. My personal airline of choice is Southwest airlines and after watching the following video…I decided it is stuff like this that makes Southwest airlines better than the rest. The seats are better, the drinks are better and the flight crew is better. I wonder if I can get this guy to rap for my site sometime.

*ding ding* “…and in this corner weighing in at 125 pounds we have the 15 year old female criminal…and in this corner we have the 200+ pound 30+ year old police officer…”
I want to first start off by saying that I do not promote or agree with beating children (unless they need it) or beating on women (unless they kick the grapes for no reason). I have never in my life hit a female and I only spank when needed on the kids. :-) I watched this video about 10 times and I am pretty bothered by a few things.
- the girl is 15 years old and the officer is at least 30 years old…my guess is he has some serious Mommy issues
- the officer has a good 100 pounds on this girl…yeah that is a fair fight
- he actually kicks her, punches her, slams her head into the concrete wall, uses her hair to slam her on the ground face first then proceeds to punch her 2 more times…all the while she never fights back
- the second officer is just chilling out like this is okay behavior for his partner to be doing…step in and put your boy in check man
- during the interview the father of the girl is all calm and cool…if that was my child I would be all up in arms ready to box the officer, sorry Carl or Gary but we would be boxing and I would whoop your a** or any other officer for that matter
- the officer actually pleads not guilty to the whole thing…hello dumb-ass…video footage!
- the officer claims he has blood pockets from the shoe striking him so hard…really man because I just watched this footage 10 times and I have not seen that shoe hit you with enough force to cause blood pockets….whatever the f**k blood pockets are
Okay, I know the officers put up with a lot of crap in their line of work and I do respect that. But just like every race, every job, every sport and every community there is a dumb s**t that always makes others look bad. Yes, she made a mistake and took her friend’s Mothers car, she called you a fat pig and she was “real lippy” with you but damn son. Did you really have to hit her and slam her the way you did? Police Officers are a very important part of our society but to go all out and beat this girl down the way you did, I am thinking maybe you need to move into a trailer park, watch Jerry Springer reruns and beat your inbred hillbilly wife. The only reason I see you doing this is because you have not been laid in god knows how long and/or your ex-wife that cheated on you with your brother looks like this girl.
I will let you all be the judge of this video…I am curious to hear some feedback on your thoughts.

I saw this ad and almost got sick to my stomach. The thought of someone eating this made me sick as well. Cholest. 3500mg - 1170% of your daily recommended value. Mmmmmm, what’s for dinner? Pork brains in milk gravy honey. Be sure to note the ingredients.
