Show Notes:

Wow, last night was a blast! I went out with some friends to a local club and “danced” the night away to latin music. Then we continued the party back home and recorded our drunken ramblings. Oscar sorry you’re really not a bitch. You’re actually one of the funniest people I know. I know these show notes aren’t the greatest, but you just need to listen to this show it’s quite entertaining.

Original Child Bomb

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

Here is a film everyone should watch. Even if you don’t care about politics this film will appeal to you. The music, the effects, the cinematography, all come together in a great presentation of the history of the atomic bomb and a meditation of where it may take us. With the score including the likes of Dan the Automator, DJ Shadow and Mos Def hip-hop heads are likely to enjoy this film. I caught it on the Sundance channel and I really liked it. Watch it!

United for Peace

Saturday, January 27th, 2007

You know what I love about anti-war rallies and peace marches is? Well first, they remind me of what a shitty situation we’re in. Bush told us that Iraq was basically an imminent threat to the U.S. Now, looking back I feel so stupid. I gave this liar the benefit of the doubt. When I think about the facts, that are so clear now, I can’t believe I was able to trust this administration.

See Iraq was a shit hole, because of a decade long sanctions campaign, that left the country in ruins. The country was poorer than it was before Desert Storm. So how could this secular, sandbox of a place threat the nation more than lets say a place like Pakistan. Pakistan is a major Muslim country run by a military general and who actually has weapons of mass destruction like nuclear bombs. Pakistan is also the place where Osama Bin Laden is thought to have fled to hide. Yet, Iraq is considered is considered to be the imminent threat, thats some fucked up shit. That is what you are supposed to do though, trust your president, right? This administration continued to lie. They said that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. This turns out to be false. Bush said “Mission Accomplished”, almost four years ago. Then he said “we can still win in Iraq.” Now he is saying “with another 21,500 troops we can win in Iraq.” It sounds like a sitcom, but it’s not it’s real life and these mother fuckers got their finger on the button.


“The public was told that Saddam posed an imminent threat. If that claim was fraudulent, the selling of the war is arguably the worst scandal in American political history - worse than Watergate, worse than the Iran-contra affair. Indeed, the idea that Americans were deceived into war makes many commentators so uncomfortable that they refuse to admit the possibility.”

- Paul Krugman in the New York Times June 3, 2003

You know you done fucked up, right? We can use the excuse that we didn’t know any better, but in the end if we truly feel this shit is wrong, speak up about it! I say we can still do something about it. We took a corrupt congress and did some house cleaning. It seems like on Nov. 7th, America spoke up, and expressed their view on the war by the way they voted. I say impeach Bush and end this war. Clinton got impeached over lying about getting his dick sucked. Now I know he’s not the only one that has ever lied about getting his dick being sucked. In fact, I bet everyone of you is guilty of lying about sucking a dick or getting it sucked. The question is how many of you are guilty of lying about something that is sending 3,000 and counting young people to die in war or cause the deaths of hundreds-of-thousands of innocent Iraqi civilians? I would say no one, but this administration. Then I think, but maybe we’re all guilty for not stopping it.

New MacBook

The Apple II


My MacBook

So I got a new MacBook, and I really love it. I grew up using Apple computers in school. Remember those shitty, beige colored boxes with the green and black screen. My favorite game then was The Oregon Trail. Then, pc’s grew more and more inexpensive and thats what I’ve used until now. I have used a Mac here and there and was always a little interested. I have to give it to Apple for having best looking laptop out there. No other machine comes close to the chic look that the MacBook has. Although, I have a feeling this pearl white computer will be difficult to keep this white. Anyway I made the jump and so far I am pretty happy. At least I wont have to deal with Dell’s shit(previous problems w/ Dell) anymore. Maybe you should look into a Mac for you next computer.

I hope everyone is having a good week.

Peace in the Middle East!

Good News from Darfur

Wednesday, January 10th, 2007

Hey awesome news! This is probably the first feed I have subscribed to and actually used. I am so glad people in our government, like Gov. Bill Richards (D-NM), are actually making moves to try and bring peace to Darfur. Here is the statement that was e-mailed to me today. Peace in Darfur!


Dear Axel,

I want to share some important news from Khartoum. New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson just released a joint statement with Sudanese President Omar Al-Bashir that, if implemented, would bring some immediate security and relief to the people of Darfur as well as provide a clear path forward to long-term peace in the region.

We asked Governor Richardson to travel to Sudan to discuss ways to secure peace in Darfur and to end the genocide. The Governor was accompanied by Save Darfur Senior International Coordinator Ambassador (ret.) Lawrence Rossin, Refugees International Executive Director Kenneth Bacon, and Public and International Law and Policy Group senior attorney Amjad Atallah. Since Sunday, when they arrived in Khartoum, Governor Richardson and the delegation have visited Darfur and participated in a variety of meetings with government officials, rebel leaders, humanitarian officials, AU commanders and UN officials.

The promises from President Bashir in this agreement are encouraging.

They include commitments to:

  • A 60-day ceasefire with an international peace summit to be held before March 15, 2007.
  • Sudan’s cooperation to work with the African Union and United Nations on the deployment of a hybrid peacekeeping force in Darfur.
  • Ensuring “zero tolerance” policies for gender-based violence in Darfur.
  • Free access for humanitarian aid workers and journalists.

Click here to read the full joint statement and the press release.

Your concerns for the people of Darfur were voiced directly to President Bashir by Governor Richardson and Ambassador Rossin. We believe that today’s agreement offers a promising step forward to end this four-year nightmare for the people of Darfur. By no means, however, has the genocide ended.

We call urgently upon Sudan, the United Nations, the African Union, and the Bush Administration to make these promises become a reality for the long-suffering people of Darfur.

We must demand that the international community take advantage of this dramatic progress. Your help in this effort will be vital in the months ahead.

Thank you for your contribution to these new developments.

Best regards,

David Rubenstein

Fuck American Eagle

Friday, January 5th, 2007

When I purchase something or when I pay for a service I expect only the best and honestly so should you. I think that the service in this country or at least in my neck of the woods is on a serious decline. If you work for Applebee’s as a server you are in the service industry. I know working in a restaurant is hard as hell. I myself have had to suffer through the pains of working in foods. Many people think or even expect to get shitty service at a McDonald’s or something, but now the same thing is happening at your neighborhood sit down eateries.

I went to the Applebee’s in Andover, KS and they gave me some of the shittiest service I have ever received. It was so bad they may as well of shit on my food and gave me a glass of warm piss to wash it down. I wanted to meet my sister for lunch and I ordered a meal that came with a house salad. I also ordered a tea. I was starving so after waiting for over twenty minutes I got my salad and began to chow down. Then as I am about to stuff a fork full of lettuce into my mouth I noticed an extra little topping that Applebee’s added just for me. It was a nasty curly pubic hair. Right there soaked in blue cheese dressing and nestled between two pieces of lettuce. I almost puked and dropped my fork. My sister asked what was going on. So I pointed and she almost puked. Instead of making a big deal about it I decided to wait for the server, who came to our table only to take the order and bring my drink and salad. I waited and waited until I finally I saw a busboy and asked him to get my server. When she finally teleported back from the shit hole kitchen, or wherever she was hiding I explained the situation. She just starred at me like she had no idea what to do. I just said, “look I lost my appetite so don’t worry about bringing me the main course.” I also told her I didn’t want to pay for the meal and if I had to I would pay for the drinks that I may include were never refilled. She said she had to talk to her supervisor first. Another twenty minutes went by and she once again she was lost in the abyss. I had to go to talk to her manger and she told me that the server would take care of it. When all was said and done, I had lost over an hour of my time, five dollars on two glasses filled with ice and maybe two ounces of tea, all because I wanted to have a quick lunch with my sister. Fuck the Applebee’s in Andover, KS. They weren’t even busy they have no excuse.

Bars are the worst too. Usually it’s understandable, because I mean come one drunk people are stupid, I am one of them. Yet, when you go through this not once, not twice, but three times at the same fucking incompetent bar you know there is a problem and you may need to say as someone once said, “I have never been more disrespected in my life!”

Or what about the bar that automatically charges a five dollar tip on an eight dollar tab. O…O…O…O’Brien’s sucky bar. Oh yeah and onetime I was out with friends having a good time and maybe because we were three dudes hanging out and not working on a Friday night, our meat head server thought it would be cool to treat us like shit. Dude, do you realize you work there to serve me. People like me make sure you can get your damn dollar bills so you can go out and buy more riods for your peanut brain ass. Get down on your knees and suck me dick. I hope your enjoyed the huge tip we left you. If you weren’t such a dick you may have gotten a penny or two from us.

The main reason that I think that service in the America sucks and seems that it will only get worse is, because today I had to American’s that would not refund a fee to one of my credit cards. When I haven’t had one late payment what so ever with this shitty company and the only time it was late was when they were making changes to their website, fucking my shit up. I called again later in the day and got a calling center in India. It took “Sam” about 5 minutes to not only refund the money back to my account, but then he took responsibility on behave of his company and also apologized for how bad they had inconvenienced me. The company was American Eagle. It took a person on the other side of the planet, in India, to do the work that two lazy fucking Americans couldn’t do. As far as I am concerned American Eagle should change their name to “Jihad Against our own American Customers” I don’t even know why I shopped there in the first place. All their shirts shrink and their style is sort of faggy.

My attitude may seem a little to extreme and even excessive, but if no one complains or doesn’t do anything, pretty soon instead of paying for a service we will be paying dumb asses to serve them.
