WHAT'S WRONG WITH HIM

Most favorite commercial. Complete FAIL at impersonating this guy's voice. Don't know how he does it.

Any excuse to talk about Wu-Tang

STOKED to see the field marshal of the Wu-Tang Clan, the RZA, still making music. Especially when it's with the Black Keys, a generally bad ass--but occasionally disappointing--blues-rock band. The band is collaborating with various black people (Mos Def, Jim Jones, etc.) to make a rock-rap album called Blakroc. The album will, inshallah, not join the ranks of other rock-rap albums. In all serious, it should be awesome. The project has 7 videos up on youtube and the best is, not surprisingly, RZA's. Pitchfork has a track from Mos Def here. What made you think the guy who engineered 36 Chambers wouldn't have the best song on this album?

Also, there's something to be said about the name of this project. Blakroc? As in black people making rock music? Just sayin'.

No excuse, the black man must stand up. Time to make the Wu-sign, throw both yall hands up

No homo

So maybe I like this show. What's it to ya? In any event, this is one of the more bizarre routines, but definitely a favorite.

That'll just about do it

The "Murder Castle"? Whoa.

This story about H.H. Holmes and his Murder Castle is crazy. Definitely reminds me of a combination of the Saw movies and The Silence of the Lambs with the twisted death traps set among a labyrinthine floor plan.

All I want to know is: does this stuff still exist? I could be totally off here, but it seems to me that killing people and experimenting on their bodies was commonplace in the 19th century (is this really a bad thing? Isn't there something to be said for scientific progress?). Anyway, this dude even tried to make Murder Castle Part 2 in Texas when the heat was on him in Chicago, which signifies two things to me: 1.) money was loose and easy in the late 1800's and 2.) Murder Castles abounded.

Now think back to about 2002-2007 when our economy was smokin'--what two things did we have? We had loose and easy money and we had way too many homes being built.

Just sayin'

Read this book

Best book I've read in a while. Will take you less than a day.

P.S. Pulitzer Prize

P.P.S. Cool points for reading before the movie comes out

No, seriously, I'm really busy

I saw a picture of Billy Corgan today and I was wondering to myself--why does he look like a vampire? Could it be that he has alopecia? Did he play Powder in the eponymous film? Is he an albino? At this point I started googling albinos and spent a good 5 minutes before I realized what a fucking weirdo I am. But this was before I found a crazy picture of Indonesian albinos and proceeded to search for pictures of albinos of all races.
