First Annual...

Today is the first annual Remembering Coolio Day.

Coolio, ne Artis Leon Ivey, Jr. is best known for his artistic contribution to the early/mid-90's rap scene.

From his stealing from the blind to his bizzare and eccentric hair styles, Coolio single handedly brought rap parody into our vocabulary.

How? With none other than Weird Al's Amish Paradise.

You may remember this little diddy from Wierd Al's critically acclaimed 1996 album Bad Hair Day.
If you weren't singing along to this song at some point in the 90's, you were probably Living in an Amish Paradise.

If you're wondering what ever happened to Coolio, apart from making guest appearances on shows such as Celebrity Bootcamp, Beat the Geeks, and Celebrity Fear Factor, he also did the voice of Kwaanza-Bot on Futurama.

Curently he is hosting his own cooking show pod-cast called Cooking with Coolio for the network MyDamnChannel.

Let's Hear it for COOLIO!!!

Animals and the people who love them.

The Yuletide season is upon us. For the better prepared portion of our community, you've finished your x-mas shopping. For the bulk of my readers, you probably haven't even begun. For most people, x-mas shopping involves wracking your brain for -the- gift that will compliment your loved ones. For others, a last minute dash to the dollar store will suffice. Then there are the people that shop for their pets. These are not only the people that buy for their pets, but also give from their pets as well. From: Mittenz Major corporations make millions off of these chumps pet owners by milking them for everything their worth. From holiday themed pet toys, to pictures for your best friends with Santa Claws (heh heh) Today I received an e-flyer from PetSmart about some handy-dandy last minute gift ideas for my pets. I am the disgruntled owner of two disgusting cats. Regardless of the fact that they are ungrateful bastards, I wouldn't buy them presents strictly on the principle t

BDTS - "S.E.X." by Nickelback.

It's time once again for BREAK DOWN THAT SONG!! And though it pains me to no end to have to listen to this, Nickelback is just full of little gems like this one. You might remember a break down of one " Something in your mouth " off the same 2008 release from the band. And if you thought that was the only disgusting single off the album, well, you were wrong. I present "S.E.X" by the boys, which not only offers a colourful look at date rape, but also indicative that millionaire and narcissist Chad Kroeger might as well be differently-abled as his reading level rivals that of a six year old. Shall we then? "S.E.X." Apparently Chat Kroeger is still at the learning stage where he spells everything out. G.R.O.S.S. "No" is a dirty word, Never gonna say it first, "No" is just a thought that never crosses my mind. Uh, Chad? "No" means "No", you motherfucker. Maybe in the parking lot, Better bring your friend along, Bett
