Give These People Air!


California is stuck with a mounting budget deficit. Revenues are down. Governor Schwarzenegger and legislators are wrangling over spending cuts. Deficits are likely to persist, and the state's economy shows no signs of a rebound. So, I figured I'd pitch in and offer my suggestions for strategies that Governor Schwarzenegger can utilize to get California back on track. Please note, having nearly no knowledge of how state legislation works I referred to the Governor's other body of work...his movies.
*UPDATE* Mark had a better suggestion for number 8. Does anyone else have any suggestions for the Governor? Send them in!
  1. Instead of slashing the budget he should freeze it with liquid nitrogen and shoot it.
  2. Instead of slashing the budget he should throw a pipe through it and tell it to let off some steam.
  3. He could put the budget on a missile and shoot it through a building into a helicopter full of other budgets.
  4. He should get irrationally angry at the budget and shake it like a baby that wont stop crying.
  5. He should dress up as Turbo Man, feed the budget to a reindeer, and then punch said reindeer in the face.
  6. He should use a chainsaw to cut the budget in two and remark that it "had to split.''
  7. In the middle of some epic lovemaking, Arnold's beautiful budget turns into a vicious snake. He strangles it and tosses it in a fire.
  8. He should slather himself in mud and crawl around the jungle, using himself as bait for the unbalanced budget. Then, just as the unbalanced budget figures out it's being lured into a trap, Gov. Schwarzenegger would start screaming, "COME ON! KILL ME! I'm here! Kill me! I'm here! Kill me! Come on! Kill me! I'm here! Come on! Do it now! Kill me!
  9. He should use a magic movie ticket to travel to a world of gunfights and car chases and steal a balanced budget.
  10. Tell the budget to get it's ass to Mars.

Lost in Translation


This is pure genius. The idea is to take actual written testimonials/reviews and act them out on video. Somehow, this guy, is exactly who I picture when I think of every review ever written that sounds like this. Seriously, if you are bored sometime and want a good laugh, scope out some official reviews posted about various restaurants or hotels. There are some very educated individuals out there.

To Me That's Pretty Unsavory. Am I Being Overly Sensitive?

So, the other night we had a storm moving through our area. Since I was heading to bed, I figured I'd check the Weather Channel radar just in case. They have this neat future-scan feature, which shows the projected path of weather systems. I clicked it and obviously the Weather Channel thought I was looking for...something else. I managed to save a screenshot and have circled the element I'm talking about.


I place the blame squarely on Al Gore's shoulders for our storms now popping totally rad boners. An Inconvenient Truth? More like An Uncomfortable Truth. Or An Inconvenient Erection. Has the weather gone XXX? Naw, couldn't be. I'm sure nothing like this has ever happened before...

Damn it.

Two Scoops of Wackiness!



I'm all for knock-offs, but I stumbled across this little gem and had myself a nice little laugh. This little insanity-bred corn flake isn't only toting around a bucket of rabbit turds, but he seems excited to do so. And, unless the name "Raisin Bran" isn't trademarked, I guess originality wasn't even considered for the products name. Me? I'd call it "Crazy Shitz." It works on all sorts of levels.

SPOILER ALERT: It's because it makes you poop!
