I feel like most of what I would ever say about this would just make me sound old and bitter or like some kind of cliche.  Whatever, this is footage of a man who is basically the all-time master at what he does, showing the rest of us how to be in the street.

Death to Saudi Arabia

I cannot wait for the day when a barrel oil sells for less than it costs to produce in Saudi Arabia.  No matter how shitty my life gets after that point, I will periodically stop to appreciate the fact that Saudi Arabia can no longer rely on oil wealth, and I will be completely spiritually recharged.

It is nice to see a story that gives some respect to the soul artist of the world, though that is not why they do what they do. Real soul artist slip in and out of the shadows to drop into a unused pool, carve lines down a backcountry slope or get tubed in some unknown barrel. They give up everything to experience that feeling that cannot really be described or captured, though many try. I got my first clay wheel skateboard in the late 60’s as something to do when the waves weren’t happening, which wasn’t that often in Hawaii. I’ve been a soul surfer for most of my life staying just ahead of the whitewater of people who want to steal my waves, culture, and lifestyle but are not willing to pay their dues. A lot of soul artist have turned to selling their art to popular culture so they can be a artist all the time. Can’t really blame them, though they are causing the death of the true soul artist by exposing the masses of media programmed posers to that unknown world the soul artist needs to thrive. Most soul artist don’t want anyone to know about their unknown culverts, slopes and waves. They live on the fringe patiently waiting for those perfect condition that allows them to push the limits of their art form. They leave no evidence of their art and do not get paid for it because that attracts attention to their undiscovered canvas. Yet, they learn things about life and reality that most of humanity has missed. Most soul artist start when they are young idealist, and know no limits. Most have to give it up for the jobs, family, religions, material possessions and other beliefs that define “grown up” human behavior to become part of the problem of over population, culture wars, WMDs, materialism and pollution that will probably cause our extinction. Timothy Leary said in the early 60’s that surfers, who started it all, were the next step in human evolution. I don’t know about that , but it can’t be worst then the deathbowl we humans are heading for now. Soul artist like Kessler live every moment like it’s their last, cause you never really know when your going to get stung.

And apropos of a lil' sumthin' sumthin', big ups to Chody Pannell.  

Respect.

Watch all of this, but pay especially close attention from 3:00-4:10.  None of us have ever, or will ever, say anything anywhere near that excellent.

I blame the parents, in general.

And in particular in the case of one Michael Jackson.  (Then again, Gary, IN was never the place for anyone to get rich living in.)  My next viewing of the Sherlock Holmes episode 'The Empty House' will be dedicated to him.  And finally, I hereby declare myself to be The New King of Pop.

This is the kind of hilarious shit that staying inside allows you to easily come up with.

Things get more and more boring as time goes on

Big ups to all the hobos who just up and ran away from their homes when they were teenagers like Johnny Lee did.

I'm done hating.  Please bear with me as I come up with new things to blog about.  And thanks to all of you as always, this blog would be nothing without you.

This blog is still tight--it stands the test of time.

It is hard to say what the best thing about this video is, but I guess I would say it's the dancing kid.

Editorial

What the fuck is up with rich Americans always giving to local art-related things?  Can't they think of a place for their money that would give them a higher rate of return?  You can save actual lives with the kind of money that rich people give away.  And has anyone ever actually felt the consequences of a rich people funding-shortfall?  Like, has it ever mattered to anyone?  If so, has it ever mattered to anyone besides the artists who philanthropists prop up, who cannot hack it on a level field of play like the rest of us?  

Art blows, get over it.  And get over Morrissey too.

Blogging kills

Stairway to Heaven

The subject of this photo might look like a completely normal, stand-up dude at first glance, but as we all know, appearances can be misleading.  In fact, this man is deeply mysterious.  For instance, his sense of smell is wildly acute.  No less interesting are his preferences over different scents.  Although I am severely restricted in what I can say on this matter, you can rest assured that when the man in the picture walks outside each day, he smells a completely different world than you do, and you cannot imagine how it makes him feel.

I should add, however, that he is perfectly friendly, and that if you happen to see him on the street, you should not hesitate to say hello (he answers to 'Thor').

This is a test. I repeat, this is a test.

I told you these motherfuckers are nuts

As always, the comments below the video are excellent.  Apparently it's not actually impressive to drift in a front-wheel drive car, at least as far as some of the commenters are concerned.  Just another blow to Arabian civilization's pride I guess.  God is great!

Bow down

Now is not the time for undue cultural sensitivity

I claim that Saudi Arabia is the craziest place on earth: it contains the most insanity per capita on earth.  Behold the act of Drifting!

I already know what you're going to say, and the answer is no, Yemen is not crazier than Saudi Arabia.  

Once again, the King was onto all of this a long time ago.

This one goes out to Tricky Dick

Turn it up, buddy.

I've been wanting to tell you something for a long time.

It is nearly certain that you will never be as good at anything you try as Edgar Winter was at making music.

Recipe: Delicious pizza with ham, green peppers and onions.

That shit is self-explanatory.

Go ahead and leave one you retarded bitch.  If you people only know how hard I work to rid these posts of typos...

I'm glad that Mexican gangsters win.  I'm glad that those people that want to stop the trade of drugs lose, just because they're so dumb to think that they can stop the trade of drugs.  They think they can plug one side of a two-sided market and that's that. I wish that I could think up shit that stupid and proceed.  They deserve to lose for thinking this.  And people who want to do drugs should be allowed to.
