The Swamp

This is the best golf advice video I've ever seen.

I am, but has anyone heard from Giff? The victim was just a couple towns over from me. I was going to post an article from the local online newspaper before they caught him because the comments were funny. The first person bitched that the video had "potty language and she played it in front of her kids, and they never should have put a video with potty language on their site. Then a bunch of people dumped on her with shit like, "yeah, a murderer is on the loose, but why she we show a video that could bring him to justice or save other lives because your kid might here a bad word." The best was a guy who railed on her for her "bad fucking parenting for showing a video of a murderer to her children." That cracked me up.

Don't they call that a good start?

It's possible that there is a movement, shall we say, in that video that you may have missed.

Took 4 more views, but I finally got it. Very subtle indeed.

Who leaves the door open for that?

Yeah, but there is something about the chick to notice, especially around the 1:55 mark.

ETA: On second viewing, maybe it's just her tattoo, but it kind of looks like a nipple slip.

Ah! Never would have seen that. It's hard to take your eyes off that chick. Her body looks like something from a fantasy comic.

Which is exactly why I scored a 25.

Digging that up at 2:30AM, huh? Did you not quite make it three months?



BTW, we got a AMNH membership (via Groupon) this year, and it's the best.

Remember that old commercial with Scottie Pippen playing basketball in the 50s against a bunch of white guys?

Peep this video of Duke recruit Semi Ojeleye (just won the Parade POY) playing his high school ball in Kansas.

Ha! Still clean, up sick that night.

interesting...

That is outstanding.

This one's for Rush and Webster and the other big Rush fans.

Dave Grohl and Taylor Hawkins induct Rush into the R&R Hall of Fame.



Is Dave Grohl not the coolest man on earth?

I just don't see it with that band.

Well, they didn't appear on Glee and they didn't do any duets with Barry Manilow...

Jerloma wrote:I just don't see it with that band.

They never really did it for me either. But that introduction actually made me want to give them another shot. I fired up 2112 on Spotify this morning. Not bad. Certainly better than most Rush I've heard over the years on the radio.

i laughed.

thanks Shirley [incidentally, a phrase i've never uttered before].

yeah well i'm not the type to try to sell someone on art - hell i never liked the Doors (just pouring on the dead here, don't mind me) - but i would say with Rush it's never a quick love. If you ever really wanted to give them a chance, pick ~3 albums from different decades to get a wide range.

And their sound just keeps changing which I personally love but actually has changed the dynamic of their fanbase at least 2 or 3 times over 30+ years. I legitimately really like or love every one of their periods...

...although Roll the Bones (1991) was terrible. :D

Check out Maron's interview with him on WTF if you want to confirm that fact.

Has a band ever been so mocked at a R&RHOF induction? And then joined the parody of themselves?

Max, J, stop reading this post. Click on something else, anything,

CanCon determines that if you grow up in Canada you will have Canadian publications rammed down your throat. That's how Rush became a big thing. In Canada. When I was 11-years old (stress 11-years old) I saw Rush at Ivor Wynne Stadium in Hamilton. The A Farewell To Kings tour. I started playing guitar when I was 8-years old but it was nothing brilliant just duh duh duh stuff although I learned the fundamental chord and scale structures at the time. Anyway, it was a great concert. But so was April Wine, BTO and Streetheart. It was enough awareness to identify that Aleksandar Zivojinovic was just loud nothing. Power chord diddly diddly power chord diddly diddly.

What I like about Rush is that they don't take themselves seriously. Well, Peart does. Far too much. Far, far, far too much. Geddy and Alex are perfectly aware that they suck. Lifeson noodles A-Minor pentatonic scales diddly diddly diddly as his signature (that's not indefensible, play any given electric Neil Young tune) and Geddy Lee sounds like a goat being fucked by another goat.

I had every one of those damn albums on vinyl. Up until Moving Pictures.

If you want to see an image that you'll never be able to burn off of your brain, look at the backside of the first Rush album.

The lyrics are flat-out idiotic, Peart's dumbing down of Ayn Rand and Lord of the Rings (as if it is possible to dumb that down any more than it is) set to pretentious blasts of simple chords. The parody band nailed it. Chord! Pause! Chord! Pause! Yep.

But Canada sucks in general. The Canadian Grammy awards are called the Juno Awards. This year, a year in which Rush was inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, they lost to some shit act called "Marianas Trench" in the Juno Group of the Year category. Inducted into the R&RHOF is apparently not enough of a decent year.

Ever read that story about how baby sharks eat their siblings while still in the womb? That's Canada.

Geddy knows all too well that they are not serious musicians and you can see from the grin on his face that he knows damn well they got lucky. Yet I still get a kick out of seeing him in front-row box seats at Jays games. By their own admission, they were huge Expos fans. They even thanked Warren Cromartie on one of their albums. Signals maybe?

Yeah, anyway, they're fucking terrible.

If zumba or Tom are lurking, they may want to skip that, too.

Scottie wrote:Signals, maybe?

Yes. More specifically, "Warren Cromartie Secondary School". Inside joke.

While they're fucking terrible, they're my fucking terrible. I think it's less about the tunes and more about bringing me to a time when I was more care-free and had less responsibility. It helped me bond with questionable characters in high school. 30 years ago. It almost felt like I fit in.

But yes, almost everything after 83 sucks.

I always knew there was something sinister about you.

The gf loves Marianas Trench.

I've seen the pictures. Slolz, if I were you and she liked the fucking Jonas Bros I would put up with it with the worlds largest smile.

She watches the God damned Married to Jonas show all the motherfucking time. Close enough.

EDIT: I was just saying, Marianas Trench is legit. It's not my style, but they aren't just some shit band. And she always makes fun of Canada for having forced 20 Barenaked Ladies songs a day on them back in the day.

Blaming canada, eh?

Those circle-headed freaks!

Marianas Trench seems like an awfully lazy band name choice. Doesn't seem like my kinda music either. Pop/punk/emo according to Google. But to each, his own. I listen to dubstep and trap. Who am I to talk shit?

Anyhoo, here's a ghetto Beauty & The Beast track to make everyone laugh:



Hey LaWasha! Hey La Dryah!

America was funny in the 1960's. This is outstanding. A bit long, but just unintentionally hysterical 40 years later.

Lucky you. My wife isn't into taking it up the butt at all.

Well I have to drug her first.

You should talk to Howard about that. Dude's a pro.

Nope; for that I do it strictly for recreation. No funds are exchanged (and I wouldn't know the procedure code for the insurance anyway).

I think it's safe to say that the first thing I am going to do when I retire is get baked and watch Soul Train.

Here's a Daft Punk/Soul Train mash-up.
