Ups and downs

So Van Halen have a new album out.  David Lee Roth is singing on this album.  And here is Diamond Dave predicting it will happen in 2002:



Dave is certainly "on" here.  But in this 1994 interview Dave is a bit of a downer.



How do you convince your wife to let you take your son on tour with this guy?  Or is he just "crazy uncle Dave" around the Van Halen house?

Workout playlist

Seems like everyone in the blogosphere is working on their GTL and sharing their workout playlists.  Sounds like a good excuse for me to recycle an old post.  So sit back and enjoy copy and paste:

Step one is queue up some workout jams.  Lately it is 33rpm Metallica, Danzig II and III, and Pantera's Vulgar Display of Power.  That is pretty much as good as it gets.

So yeah.  I like the way Chuck Biscuits plays a strong downbeat.  It is a good rhythm for me to lift weights.  Not too fast or too slow and the downbeat helps me focus on the reps.



If everything's put together and you feel great and you look great then its awesome.



Word

Remember that you are a product that you are trying to sell to people every day of your life every time you interact with someone face to face.  So you need to look your best in order to successfully market yourself to others.  Go to the gym, fattie.  Go tanning, you look sick.  And for God's sake smell good.  Chew some spearmint for fuck's sake you smell like cheap vodka.



GTS. Gym tan spearmint you fucking wino.

Undershirt review

Like most Italians I wear athletic style sleeveless wife beater undershirts. And as a man of discriminating taste I want the best. But as a man of prudence I don't want to pay too much. Much like whiskey there are bargains to be had.

The best undershirts used to be Champion A Shirts. They were high quality, inexpensive, and comfortable non-ribbed shirts. They changed the formula and now only make ribbed a shirts. So now we men of taste and sense must find a replacement.

Sadly I could only find two brands of non-ribbed athletic undershirts. Brooks Brothers has a nice brand that runs 20 dollars a shirt. Armani has a brand that runs 10 dollars a shirt. I opted for the Armani, and they are very nice shirts. A little pricey for a wad of cotton but there is no other choice. I tried wearing ribbed undershirts and that didn't work. Too uncomfortable. If you, dear reader, find a cheaper brand of non ribbed wife beaters let me know. Thank you.

Predictions

I predict that the newest film adaptation of the Great Gatsby will fail. Just like the others.

Nerd alert

How many strings is that?



And how about you?



Too many, that's how many.

More strings than girlfriends?  How about more necks than girlfriends?





Ok fine, just forget about strings then?



Forget it. Stick with hitting stuff with sticks, that always gets it done.

Youtube poop from beyond the grave

One glass of wine too many and I ended up beyond the void in the netherworld of the webernets (thanks Carlo Rossi).  First, you remember the Misfits.  And you remember that they ressurected the Misfits without Danzig and put out some material that was maybe ok but nothing like the real thing.  And you promptly forgot the whole ordeal.  I know I did.  But what, youtube covers of modern Misfits?  First, a refresher:



The original, in case you slept on it (and I know you did).  I don't think it is terrible, but if this wasn't sold as the Misfits it would probably be your favorite local band that never made it.



Bish covers this song acapella. Probably born after Danzig I came out.  Note the unfinished guns chestpiece.  I am old and have no idea what it means, but wise enough to know it is probably not something original and is more likely a reference to something (hit me up in the comments for the answer please).

But there is more!



On we go!













At this point my mind is blown.  So many bishes covering some random newera Misfits song.  WTF?  You may now weep for humanity.



Yes I know.  I will cry with you at the youtube poop.  There there.  We will get though this one day at a time.
