Does it consider any disabilities this generic guy has? What about blokes with no arms or bad knees that make them scream in pain?

Nope, this is presuming generic guy has functional arms, legs and is not morbidly obese.

Sorry but this thread is now the Re: The Specific Musings of paladin1991 thread.

Party on!

Good news! I never quite got the appeal of this thread. Seemed like a bizarre, mean spirited rant most of the time.
•   Palladin1991 â€" as a military guy how many push-ups do you think a guy should be able to knock out so as not to be considered a quantifiable wussy boy?
•   I’m 55 and can do about 20 (back straight â€" nose to ground.) Should I shoot for more though?

Hellboy (2004) â€" Had seen bits & pieces of this before on cable â€" but finally just got the chance to watch this whole thing on Netflix. Terrific, fun movie that has all the cool stuff I like: decent characterization/motivations for the characters, Nazi’s (including hot blonde lady Nazi),  Rasputin, “Paranormal Research” organizations,  slimy monsters and even a big ol’ Lovecraftian Elder God type creature…Ron Perlman is really great as Hellboy too. The plot hangs together really well for as over-the-top as this gets at times... Got to track down the sequel now…

I was driving home the other day really hungover and I had to shit so bad I was starting to sweat. It subsided as I was pulling in the drive but came back with such force that I new if I hit the brakes I would shit myself so I put my truck in neutral and coasted into the hedges. I waited about a minute till I thought I would be OK but when I got out I had to avoid stepping on my dog and then I shit my pants.

Fuck, I just spilled scalding hot coffee all down the front of my shirt laughing so hard at this…

Fast cuts, weirdly nostalgic, endlessly watchable….

Just one question:  has anyone broken this news to der Fuhrer yet?

Journey, and their now ubiquitous "Don't Stop Believin'", which thanks to The Sopranos no man, woman or child can avoid hearing without relocating to a cave in Afghanistan.

Agreed. Completely awful and it just won't go away. Should be re-titled: "Don't Stop Dry-Heavin'"

Lee Hazlewood passed away some time ago. His son Mark is a Planet X guy, he was on with Art on C2C.

Cool - Thanks.

Nancy Sinatra: Art could chat her up about her old man’s mob connections, coming of age in the 1960’s,  Lee Hazelwood,  and the making & meaning of Some Velvet Morning.

It's one of the few reasons I've hung on to Sirius for my car.  I listen to the First Wave channel a lot when I'm on the road, for a trip back in time.  Richard Blade DJ's in the afternoon and he's pretty decent.  I've heard some music I never caught in the '80s.

Yep, I loved Sirius for the span that I had it…Little Steven’s Underground Garage was excellent too….Had to give it up & leverage expenses as I’m trying to help daughter through college…

Ric Ocasek produced all kinds of strange punk music, including a band called Suicide.

Yeah, the good ol’ Punk Rock careening into New Wave (late seventies)….Great stuff… I get all nostalgic for all that.

I’ve been meaning to pick up that Suicide(1977) album…Right now, the cd is out of print and going for a silly amount of money…

Love the way this song starts â€" with Debbie kicking in before the rest of the band…

If this is serious, then go get help immediately and call a suicide prevention hotline...

1 (800) 273-8255

Really is the best advice here. Good call.

Top 10 reasons to NOT off yourself at 21:

10) Think of all the good books you haven’t read yet.
9) Most religions are in agreement that suicide really is the least advantageous way to leave this mortal coil…Give some thought to what you’d be doing to your eternal cosmic make up.
Think of all the good albums and bands you haven’t heard yet.
7) Who’s going to enjoy your bike when you’re gone? Might as well be you.
6) Dogs, cats, ferrets, etc. : Get one that loves you unconditionally (Frequently they’re better companions than people anyway.)
5) Life is redolent with exquisite, fucking mysteries (I’m hanging around to find out who did kill Kennedy man…)
4) Think of the good you could do for people with real problems (poverty, cancer, AIDs, refugees, the fucked-up environment â€" pick one â€" and WORK to make it better.)
3) In about 20 years your sex drive will start decreasing anyway (so who you’re hooking up with or not hooking up with won’t matter a hill of beans then anyway.)
2) Art Bell !
1) Really, Life isn’t all about you: It's about how you treat other people and the Karma you leave behind. Think about who you’d be hurting that’s still Man enough (or Woman enough) to  stay here.

Sometimes you just need to sit outside in the early morning, with a nice cup of coffee and listen to the birds…Everything else is largely inconsequential bullshit…

Watching this series on Netflix right now. It’s hilarious. British sit com…Misanthropic, hard drinking bookstore owner who hates his customers… I like it for what it says about working for a living…

Episode 1 â€" it’s about 20 minutes.

It's an eye sore. Why enjoy a nice view when you can throw three gigantic swords in the mix. Because that doesn't ugly things up at all.

They could hall it to my place…I’d take a little Turtle Wax to it, shine it up nice…Maybe string a hammock between the first and second hilts. Could recline out in front of the house and read old Robert E. Howard stories…

I don’t know, but I’d like to have it in my front yard…(Chicks dig giant swords.)

I’m  finding consistently that  if I play multiple  Grant Morrison videos (above) simultaneously - with a 3 second delay on the 2nd one -  that my astral self jumps free of my corporal body  and floats to some place over Morocco (I think it’s Tangiers)…

The Search for Michael Rockefeller (2010 documentary â€" Netflix) Having heard bits & pieces of this story over the years -  it was good to get the larger picture by watching this. Nutshell: 23 year old son of ridiculously wealthy Nelson Rockefeller disappears somewhere in savage New Guinea following the capsizing of his boat, in 1961. The larger mythology has him drowning and/or being eaten by: A) Crocodiles, B) Sharks or C) the local cannibal natives. The story picks up steam though when a writer for Argosy magazine spends 7 weeks in 1969 trying to run down the story of Rockefeller’s disappearance. Understandably he has very little to go on in regard to finding Rockefeller but some pretty good interviews are taped with people who knew the kid while they were all in-country…The writer ends up commissioning a guy with a camera to shoot some additional  footage of island regions where there might be more clues to the mystery…Without giving it away if you haven’t seen this yet â€" check out some of  this camera footage revealed towards the end (supposedly on the shelf for 40+ years.) I understand now why the 1961 Rockefeller disappearance is so danged interesting.

The Fly (1958 version)…”Help meee!…” (Delightfully creepy, tripped out ending…)
