I wanted to take a minute and wish everyone out there a Happy Sir Robbie Rob Day! Today is the national holiday (by that I mean in the country of SRR...not USA) where we celebrate the birth of me. What up? It's mandatory for you to go out there and party like it's 1999. I would love to join you but I can't stay up that late. I'm 29 now and I can't keep up with you younger folks. If I'm not in bed by 7pm I'm completely ruined the next day.
Go out there and party for me. For those that get alcohol poisoning, I will give you a hug.

In Flames won a Grammy for the best hard rock act at the Swedish Grammy Awards! Congrats to those guy. Maybe one day we will see them playing the Grammy Awards in the States...one day...one day.
If you're not familiar with In Flames you should check them out...if you like metal. Here is the video of them playing at the Award show. They are performing Alias from their latest album. The guy that is playing acoustic with them is another musician, Timo Raisanen.

On the days that it's not freezing cold (freezing cold to me is 65 or below) outside I try and ride the motorcycle to work. Where I work there’s an area in the parking lot designated for the cool kids (read: motorcycle riders). It’s pretty common to run into another rider and start chatting it up. This is very similar to the members of NAMBLA running into each other at the neighborhood playground except we’re not pedophiles…most of us anyway. We spend some time talking about our latest rides, the weather, comparing "If you can read this, the B*tch fell off" shirts, and also exchanging skin...

Yesterday, we said goodbye to 2008 and "How you doooin'?" to 2009. Last year was quite a busy one for me. When I say busy, I'm comparing it to previous years where I did nothing other than scratch my butt and sniff my fingers. That's only fun for so long!
I thought I would recap some of the cool things that went on last year. Hopefully I can keep the momentum going and have even a better 2009.
For my birthday last year my family presented me with a film class. The class ran from January 22 to April-something. We had to write a script and then as a class we decide which ones were going to get made....

Do you have nothing else better to do? Check out this great cover of Enter Sandman on the Kazoo. It starts off kind of slow but it gets awesome..er..awesomer.
Metallica would be stupid not to invite this guy to join the band. This could return them to the great days of Ride the Lightning and Cliff Burton.

Earlier this year a co-worker sent me a link and suggested that I try Twitter. Even before signing up for an account I really couldn't grasp the concept of the tool. Is it meant to be a sort of mini blog or another way to let friends know when a new pimple pops up on my ass. It's hard to tell. I haven't seen any two people use it the same way.
Since I don't see many using it as a mini blog, I'm going to assume it's a way to keep their friends in the loop with their happenings. Which seems kind of stupid. Do I really want to know when someones walks into a gym, is in line to buy Hannah Montana...

I'm a huge fan of the 80's cartoon, The Thundercats. To say the least, I'm a little excited about the live action movie that is in the works. But there is no telling when that might actually see the light of day. Thankfully, there are a bunch of fanboys with some serious skills. The latest in fanboy created material is a really impressive trailer starring Brad Pitt, Vin Diesel, Garfield, and more.
Check it out.

Another awesome example of why Bollywood is greater than Hollywood.
Supposedly, the main guy in the video is a "great dance master". The guy's name is Prabhu Deva and a quick look on YouTube finds a ton of great treasures.
It makes me want to move over there and become an international pop star. Imagine it now...so sweet!

It's pretty awesome that NASA has finally figured out how to recycle urine into drinking water. When this hits the home market it's going to help save me a ton on buying bottled water.
My sides hurt from laughing so hard.

The best thing to happen to Saturday Night Live in recent memory is the comic trio of Andy Samberg, Akiva Schaffer, and Jorma Taccone. They're responsible for all of the Digital Shorts you see on SNL almost every week. I'm sure you've seen some of these, like Dick in a Box with Justin Timberlake or Lazy Sunday. Here is the latest Digital Short from last nights SNL. Pure Gold!
