John’s Crawlspace

So Terri Schiavo died today (here’s the article) and I don’t really have a whole lot to say about this, but I’m not gonna try and make a joke out of it, since South Park took care of that for me last night, though I do think it’s kinda sad. Apparently she used to be pretty hot, I saw a picture somewhere but I don’t feel like trying to find it again. Anyway….

This little game tests your reaction time. I tried it twice and got a score of .1636.

I dunno how many of you have heard Beatallica before, but they’re a very innovative blend of Metallica and The Beatles, with songs such as “Sgt. Hetfield’s Motorbreath Pub Band” and “The Thing That Should Not Let It Be”. When you listen to their music you can definitely hear the influence from both bands without being told what it is that you’re hearing, and I think it’s very creative. Well they were recently forced by Sony (who owns the rights to the Beatles’ catalog) to remove their website and pay unspecified damages for having recorded those songs… You can read the full article here. I think this is pretty ridiculous - Beatallica doesn’t sell their albums, they offer the tracks for free on their website. I don’t understand why big international companies like Sony feel the need to bully around a couple of everyday guys in a tribute band. Anyway, apparently Lars Ulrich has made efforts to diffuse the situation between Sony and Beatallica (link), and there’s also a petition you can sign if you feel so inclined.

Alright, I was pretty hesitant to even include this in the post, because I’m sure that most of you that would sign up for this probably have already done so, but here goes anyway: Gratis Network (the same people that brought us the free iPod thing) put out another site a few weeks ago, freePSPs.com. At first, I wasn’t interested, because I’m not really a big “gamer” and don’t have a whole lot of time for video games anyway. But then I learned that you can convert video files and transfer them to your PSP (using this software), and I think that’d be pretty damn cool (full review here). Plus, it has Wi-Fi capabilities so you can use it to connect to the internet, and… Well, I dunno, if you’re interested and this is all news to you, check out the specs, and even more info here. Anyway, I’m positive that this is completely legit, since I did recieve my free iPod and all, if I didn’t think it’d work, I wouldn’t waste my (or your) time. How does it work? If you don’t already know, you simply sign up, complete a free trial offer of your choice (a credit card is required, but cancel in time and you won’t be charged a cent) and then get five of your friends to do the same. It actually is that simple. So if you haven’t done so already, sign up! If you complete an offer and email me, I’ll post your referral link on here as well. I uh… I feel like a whore right now.

Sin City looks like it’s gonna be an awesome flick… Check out these comic-to-screen comparisons. I can’t wait to see this. On the other hand, this sounds like a terrible idea for a movie.

This is kinda scary, TEH HIV version 2.0 might be on it’s way.

Okay, so most of you probably heard about the guy from Korn leaving the band because he found God, right? Well I’m pretty sure that now he has completely lost it. I don’t even need to say anything else, just read this.

I really can’t believe I just read this article. Honestly… What is wrong with people?

Hahaha, how dumb would you feel if this happened to you: You’re about to rob an old lady walking her dog, so you run by her and grab her bag, only to open it up and find that it’s full of dog shit? I see dumb, random articles like this one all the time, but for some reason this one is pretty funny to me. Anyway, I never post mail from my viewers, so here we go.

I’ve never seen a 64 oz bottle of malt liquor, but that’d be awesome. I take 40s with me to parties alot (instead of paying for a cup, I just like having a 40 in my hand, I dunno why) and people always seem to compliment on the fact that I’m drinking OE, like it’s some sort of achievement. Has anyone else seen/heard of these “six fos”?

That’s all for now, I’m ready to start the night right now - Everybody have a great weekend!

Word: I dunno if you noticed, but I put the new System of a Down track in the Featured Audio thinger up there. I like this song, it’s better than most of the stuff on “Steal This Album”, so maybe Mesmerize won’t be shitty after all. You’re welcome.

Alright, before I get into the normal update stuff, I wanna address the whole SurfJunky thing. I’ve been told by alot of people that it’s a scam, and after doing some research it seems pretty likely that it is, and that we’re not gonna get paid. I apologize for this, since I know alot of you signed up after reading about it here. I’m sorry if you wasted alot of time using it. Sites like this one present a pretty convincing argument against SJ’s legitimacy. I stopped using the site and I figure if by some miracle I do end up getting a check in the mail, then I’ll start using it again, but I really don’t see that happening. So once again, I’m sorry if you wasted your time with it, and I’ll try to look into things a little more before posting them on here from now on.

Michael Jackson is hands-down the strangest celebrity ever. Personally I don’t have a very strong opinion on the current charges against him, but regardless of whether or not he’s guilty, some people obviously think he’s not gonna be sticking around for too much longer. Jacko Suicide Watch was setup to track how long it’s gonna be before… Well, it’s pretty self-explanatory. Personally, I just think he needs to get the shit kicked out of him, G-Unit style.

Well that’s odd… I’m not homeless, black, or hispanic, and I loves me some Old E 40s.

The new Queens of the Stone Age album “Lullabies to Paralyze” leaked onto the web a week or so ago, but if you haven’t downloaded it and want to listen to it, you can hear it on their myspace page. While on the topic of music… Team Sleep (Chino Moreno’s long-delayed side project) will finally be releasing their self-titled on May 10th. Oh yeah, and here’s some news on the upcoming albums from System of a Down.

I thought I posted this video awhile ago, the google image search rap by Mocky, but I’ve seen a bunch of sites posting it again recently claiming it’s new, so if you haven’t seen it, it’s worth checking out.

I share Prence’s hatred for ringtone sites like Jamster, and the ridiculously annoying commercials that are on over and over again. Maybe ringtones are good for something after all though? According to this article, Hideto Tomabechi has developed a ringtone that will increase the breast size of those who listen to it. I dunno about you all, but I’ve been in the market for a pair of manboobs for awhile now… So where can I get this ringtone?

Personally I’m not too big on tattoos, I’d probably never get one myself. As nerdy as this is gonna sound, I think that this Zelda tattoo is pretty awesome.

This flash game is pretty cool, you shoot at people and depending on where you shoot them they respond differently, better than most flash games I see.

The video for Beck’s new song “Black Tambourine” is pretty cool, alot of it is done in ASCII. I’m not gonna lie, I didn’t watch the whole thing, but it’s worth checking out.

I don’t think a turtle would be a cool pet to have… In fact, it’d suck. But I wouldn’t mind a satanic turtle at all.

I’ve seen pictures of those enormous “camel spiders” from Iraq before, but this page has a video of one in action. Spiders don’t bother me, but this thing is a beast, and I’d freak out and cry like a little girl if one came near me.

World Jump Day: If 600 million people all jump at exactly the same time, apparently the Earth’s orbit will change. Sign up at this site and you’ll receive an e-mail reminder to jump at 11:39.13 GMT on July 20, 2006. Interesting.

Superleo, A self-proclaimed long time viewer of my site from Sweden, sent me an e-mail about this band called Flying Dog. The name sounded kind of dumb but I checked them out, and they’re actually pretty good. He descibed them as a mixture between Linkin Park and the Deftones, though I hear a little bit of Ill Nino in there too. I don’t usually plug bands on here but I figured I might as well, so check out Flying Dog. Speaking of dogs… When I see things like this, I want to destroy everything.

Stuff like this creeps me out.

Have you ever wanted to see tons of private photos that people from around the world accidentally shared over P2P networks such as KaZaA and Ares? Yeah, that’s kinda creepy… Click here you weirdo.

Over Spring Break, one of my friends was talking about this place, kinda odd how I just now ran into that article.

I’m sure you’re all totally interested in origami, right? Of course you are. Well these sites let you make origami paper cd cases, seems kinda cool I guess.

Apparently John Stamos rocks. That’s pretty funny.

I’ve updated the video section, and I worked on the archives a little… The deal with the archives is alot of old posts are laying around in .html and .txt files on my hard drive and I need to organize them and connect the posts with the files that have those posts comments… I really wish I wasn’t so busy. Anyway, that’s it for now… Check out thebudah.com and e-celebs.org.

Happy St. Patricks day and everything. I know I haven’t posted in years, Spring Break was great, classes started back up Monday the 14th, and I’ve been busy as hell ever since, but I’ve been working on a post. This isn’t it, I’m actually late for class writing this post but I wanted to put this album on here so you all have some real drinking music for the day. Play this real loud and do carbombs until you vomit.

The file is uploading right now, and it should be done in about an hour, though I do get disconnected from the internet a few times a day so that will probably end up happening as soon as I walk out the door to head to class. Anyway, it’s only gonna be up today and then I’m deleting the file so grab it while you can. You’ll need WinRAR to extract the files. I’ll be making a normal post tommorow, while recovering from a brutal hangover courtesy of St. Patrick.
