The guy on the right looks like a young Beat Takeshi. I don't get it.

That's because Takeshi is Vic Romano...

A television show on the Spike television network featuring lifted footage from the Japanese TV show Takeshi's Castle. In the original Japanese version, a huge group of players would begin the show with the General (now referred to as the Captain) and would storm down a hill to the first activity, which would usually about halve the group. Then, through all the various following games which are MXC's main programming, more and more would be eliminated until there were maybe just a few people left. Whoever was left would storm Takeshi (who on MXC has become Vic Romano) and would engage in a go-kart-tank laser battle for victory. Takeshi is often seen posing in his tank at the end of MXC. Very few people ever actually won the game show.

Incidentally, Takeshi had a video game made after him that had virtually nothing to do with either his show or himself, and in fact is supposedly impossible to beat. Takeshi supposedly hated video games.
I was watching MXC with my roommate and spilled my soda laughing when this one guy busted his nuts on the dough-roller things.

Ticked just bought something on Amazon for the first time and it wouldn't recognize my address when I was using the Android app so I switched to the browser on my phone and got it right.

Smile dishonored for 30 bucks! I had been wanting it but was waiting for a price drop and saw it was on a lightning deal so I jumped on it. I also realized I don't think I've even bought a retail game all year so I had correct that.

Found frozen red salmon filets caught in the Atlantic Ocean. They're from Iglo, a European frozen foods company. I prefer unfrozen salmon because it's easier to handle. But then again, those frozen salmon filets are probably fresher anyway. So all is good now...

What girls that I deal with think cowboys are, and what cowboys really are, are extremely different things.

The doomsday threads reminded me:

My wife went to buy a few things at Wal-mart the other day, among them a pack of bottled water.

When she got to the drinks aisle, the water had been completely picked clean. An employee she spoke to told her that people preparing for the end of the world are stocking up.

Seems silly to me. If the world comes to an apocalyptic end, you'll probably be too dead to worry about water.

I dunno, I found the story amusing when she told me.

My father's all set. He still has his Y2K and bird/swine flu stockpiles.

There is no end to human stupidity...
