Happy Monday

Oh, You Fancy, Huh?

Ooohh La-La, I guess rich people get their bargains at the $39 Dollar Store.

Part Of This Complete Breakfast

I'm not quite sure when Chocolate Banana Splits became standard breakfast fare, but the box says its a good source of Vitamins and Minerals so it can't be THAT bad for you......right?

It's Friday!!

Truth In Advertising

Judging by the visual aid used to illustrate their "100% Natural" claim, it looks like the owner of this fruit smoothie cart has a thing or two to learn about truth in advertising.

Happy Monday

The Gift That Keeps On Giving....Nightmares

This crazy looking candelabra is a sure fire way to freak out children and adults of all ages.

Lock It Up

There's going to be a really happy unicyclist or really sad bicyclist returning to this locked up wheel.

Say Cheese!

It's Friday!!

Even Our Animals Are Spoiled

Yet another reason for people to hate America. You know there's a problem when our dogs eat better than most people around the world.

Know Your Market

The other day I noticed the DVD guy outside my office was selling this Indiana Pacers Greatest Games DVD. Trying to sell this DVD in NYC is about as easy as selling a Hitler's Greatest Hits DVD in Israel ...it ain't happening.

Hey Pacers fans, how's that Greatest Games Vol. 2 coming along? Yeah, I didn't think so.

Total Recall Vs. RoboCop 2 and The Life Lesson Learned

The other day while I was watching TV, the not so classic Arnold Schwarzenegger Sci-Fi thriller "Total Recall" came on. Whenever I see Total Recall or hear it mentioned, I remember the life lesson I learned from watching it 20 years ago.



Back in '90 I was 10 years old, and a HUGE RoboCop fan. I some how got my hands on a VHS copy of RoboCop and watched it any chance I had. I loved ALL things RoboCop. I would draw him, I had the RobCop game on Commodore 64, and I even loved my Uncle's Ford Taurus, because that's the car that RoboCop drove in the movie.



So, when I heard that RoboCop 2 was coming out in theaters, It was no surprise to my family that I wanted to see it. Luckily my Uncle Ralphie promised to take me....that day he became my favorite Uncle.

As the movie opening got closer, I got more and more excited. "How could they top the original Robocop?" I wondered. More Explosions? More Ford Taurus'? More baby food? I truly couldn't wait to see this movie.



when the day came to head to the theater, Uncle Ralphie broke my heart with the news that RoboCop 2 got terrible reviews (after watching the trailer again those bad reviews probably makes sense). How could it be? All the anticipation dashed with 2 thumbs down? I was so bummed out.

My Uncle suggested that we go see the new Arnold Schwarzenegger movie TOTAL RECALL instead. I loved Arnold since the Commando days. I even got the Commando flat top hair cut in grade school, but I didn't know anything about Total Recall and I was still consumed by the whole RoboCop 2 idea.

Uncle Ralphie convinced me that Total Recall would be fine, so I sucked it up and begrudgingly trusted his advice...Damn I REALLY wanted to see RoboCop 2

Most of Total Recall was a blur to me. Off hand I recall some cool effects and weird aliens here and there, but one particular scene changed my life forever.

"The scene with the 3 titties". Yup thats right. Ask any guy and that's the only scene they'll remember from Total Recall. In the scene, Arnold approaches a woman at a bar and she opens her shirt to reveal not one, not two, but THREE boobs.



You have to understand, I was 10 years old at the time and I had never seen a boob in my life....so to go from 0 to 3 in one fell swoop was phenomenal. Add to that the fact that they were on the big screen, so they were at least 6 feet tall each....THREE. GIANT. BOOBS.

To a 10 year old boy, seeing boobs is like the ultimate...Or at least to me it was. I couldn't wait to tell all my friends at school, they'd all be SO jealous. Total Recall made me grow from a boy to a man...well, a young man.

I realize that I may come across as some sort of pervy loser in this little manifesto, but looking back I realize I learned a valuable life lesson that day. I was so consumed with RoboCop 2 and was so crushed when I realized I wouldn't be able to see it. But the Total Recall alternative opened my eyes to a whole new world of wonderment and endless possibility.

So in closing I'd like to say that sometimes in life your path may change from where you want it to go, but remember, the alternate path may have 3 huge titties waiting for you in the end...Metaphoric titties of course.

Who Is This Guy?

Now, you may look at this picture and think..wow that guy looks hilarious....and you'd be right. But get this, his name is ROB HOAR...and he works for COXSACKIE Transport.

While perusing the music selection at a garage sale, I came across this CD. Sadly for Stylz and The J.I.Z., I'm pretty sure the party didn't last All Nite.

It's Friday!!
