Dub Show

I ended up with four free tickets to this DUB Magazine sponsored auto show, at the Minneapolis Convention Center, August 19, 2007.


Naturally, I brought Derek, Matt, and Mark along to experience the bling, the babes, and the bass that was waiting.


Most of the cars had obnoxious paint jobs, awesome window tint, huge stereo systems. and insane rim-jobs. All very expensive, I imagine.


There was a Mercedes concept car that had 30 inch rims on it, and (Mark says) about four $1 Million dollar cars (the diamond car is one of them).


There were live performances from Lil Scrappy, Huey, Bone Thugs-N-Harmony, Sean Kingston, Baby Boy Da Prince, and Richboy.


With all the car stereos blaring over the sound of the main stage, and the glare of flashing light on sparkling paint, I only lasted about 30 minutes before I fled to the nearest place that would get me drunk.

Congratulations

I got this little video sent to me to say congrats on my recent legally-binding relationship agreement. I dont know which is better, the stupid fucking dance he does or the fact that we now have pin-pointed the inspiration for Austin Powers wardrobe.

power is....looking good!

Read A Book!

Hey guys, I have met most of you already, but I'm the prodigal son of Ryan and Josh hailing from Apple Valley High School. My name is Kent, but it shows up here as Shashin Gallery, which is my daily photo blog. Check it, www.shashingallery.blogspot.com As my first post to the Forest, I am ashamed to say I cam only produce a link and not these cool uploaded videos (someone teach me). Believe me, I tried, so don't be surprised if they just start popping up on their own. Till then, Read A Book mu-fuckas!

Daft Punk Alive

We'll I made it to the show, and it was more crazy than I imagined it would be. They turned into outlines of themselves.

I Will See This, Get This, Or Both

I'm excited to know more about this new Daft Punk movie. It's wordless, and it's about two robots that are trying to become human. This video below shows you the whole 70 minute production in just 170 still frames. Pretty great stuff.



There is still a possiblity that I may see Daft Punk play here in NYC tonight, but we'll just have to wait and see if that works out.

This next video just plain sucks.

Pentagon admits 190,000 weapons missing in Iraq

* Some 190,000 assault rifles and pistols supplied by the US to Iraqi security forces in 2004 and 2005 have gone missing, according to a report issued here yesterday, and may have fallen into the possession of insurgents.
* Pentagon does not know what happened to roughly a third of the arms it has provided to train and equip Iraqi forces - an effort whose success is crucial to restoring some semblance of order in the country.
* 80,000 pistols; 110,000 AK-47; 135,000 body armour; and more!



Yet this fucking monkey can produce and prepare noodles?!

Make it rain!

According to this BBC story; in recent weeks more than 400 blank envelopes containing 10,000 yen bills have been left in the gents toilets of local council buildings all across Japan. Then, over the last few days, 18 residents of a Tokyo building found a total of 1.81 million yen ($15,210) stuffed into envelopes in their mailboxes. Of course, many lucky recipients promptly turned-in the cash to local police...OF COURSE!

The bridge is over.

I'm assuming all MPLS dudes are A-OK? Check the video on this WCCO story to hear about Jersh's brother, identified here as "man," and his narrow escape. So, is this the section that I've often climbed up and under on the scaffolding? Ned, remember when that alarm went off and cops came with guns drawn we thought were for us... different bridge?

LimoJet (a.k.a. spiderman car)

gizmodo.com review:

"If you thought Hummer limousines were over the top, take a look at LimoJet, a million-dollar cruiser converted from a jet fuselage and scheduled for unveiling in late spring. Inside is a 42-inch plasma screen, spacious seating for 18 and a 4500-watt stereo. It's 42 feet long and at 101 inches wide, just barely narrow enough to be street legal. It runs with a 400hp Chevy truck engine and has $20,000 worth of chrome wheels with 30-inch tires. This crazy car even has a sound effects system that makes a realistic jet engine noises."

Marketing genius! Better put those metal detectors in!
