Highlander Was a Documentary, and the Events Happened...in Real Time.

I was watching the kiddie cartoon Chowder fairly recently and was trying to figure out where I knew the voice of shopkeeper Gazpacho from. I was certain I'd heard it before - neurotic, insistent, a little Nathan Lane-y. After days of remembering nothing (I literally sat in a corner of my living room for three straight days, wracking my brain, while spiders covered me with webs) I checked online (remember when it was 1994 and when you wanted to find something out you had to go to the library or talk to people?)and found out that the guy doing the voice is Dana Snyder, who not only does the voice of Master Shake from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but has the same first name as Dana Carvey, who probably likes cartoons. See how life comes full circle? I don't either.



Anyway, this pretty much sums up why I love Dana Snyder.

Myspace & Facebook Go the Way of Friendster

The internet has a new social networking darling: Hoffspace. Have you ever been on Myspace and just couldn't click with your random fake friends on something that really matters, like an American pop star famous in Germany who enjoys lying on hotel room floors at 4am devouring cheeseburgers after 15 shots of Jim Beam, and habitually talks to his Pontiac Trans Am who sounds like Mr. Feeney from Boy Meets World?

We're talking about the man who was there right after the Berlin Wall collapsed to help unite East Germany and West Germany... and now, he wants to help unite the world. Over 14 thousand devoted followers so far have become hooked on David Hasselhoff's feeling. We estimate that it will take 3 to 4 days for that number to quintuple. The format is strikingly similar to Myspace, only good. Even better, there is no fear of logging onto your page one day and finding a douche with a shit-eating grin gazing over his shoulder at you. So join us on this Hoff-tacular journey before you're the only loser not on Hoffspace.

Below you will find links to our respective Hoffspace pages. Join, befriend us, appreciate this barrel chested, permed god as he unites the world in the fight against inspirational headlines and sparkly pink backgrounds.

When you plant shit seeds, you get shit weeds.

Looks like the residents of Oregon finally got to Season 6 of the Trailer Park Boys.

It's the way of the road.

Fun with Lasers

Nowadays, lasers are for more than just pointing at things and reading bar codes. The new Radiohead video for the song "House of Cards" was shot without a single camera. Instead, they used 64 rotating lasers and a scanning system to render the three dimensional floating head of Thom Yorke. Genius. Watch the video. Watch the making of video. If you have time, you can play with the technology by moving Thom Yorke's disembodied head around your screen. I must warn you after a while it becomes a little creepy.

Random Laser News:
For all you ravers/laser fanatics, at a recent festival in Kirzhach a laser light show turned into the second worst thing that could happen to you at a rave when a few days later attendees started complaining of vision problems. At least 61 confirmed cases of laser blindness. You can read more here.

The words "burrito," "botox," "Tom Cruise," and "hangover" are words...

Anyone who reads the newspapers is aware that tonight is Lachapalooza 2008. What does that mean for Blog 'scuse me?? It means bastardizing popular libations and baking up some amazing vegan treats for the meat-scented masses. Breaking News!!! Malibu Bay Breeze snow cones shall grace this event for the first time in Lachapalooza history. Will this year mark the return of the beer pong table? Only time will tell. Will the members of ERINLACH be making an appearance? Is it possible that they will play Man Thighs Are Yucky this year, compelling the police to visit for its sheer magnum force? Will there be an unfortunate mishap involving a bottle of Jameson, a Slip N Slide, and a frantic 911 call? Will Allie take a swan dive into the keg again? Will Erin's hallway once again flood with beer and hamburger vomit? Will there be sequined flip flops?

One question we know the answer to is whether we will be subscribing to Cosmopolitan Magazine aka National Dairy Council approved Prada wearing Sausage Pounders. Why, do you ask, would we be so bitter? Could it be that a recent issue advises readers not to invite vegans to barbecues? Do they fear losing their precious Got Milk ads if a single subscriber invites a vegan into their household? Do they imagine vegan guests replacing kegs of beer with barrels of nutritional yeast? Are they worried that blocks of tofu will make their readers turn against men no longer needing the nauseatingly prevalent sex tips and how I finally tamed him testimonials? Are they upset that we bring scrumptious baked goods and force people to drink inventive cocktails (that might just be us)? Do they have nightmares of a storm cloud forming over the backyard and unleashing a downpour of fluffy puppies and hemp products? Which has happened a couple times but trust me everyone had fun once the shock wore off and we laid out some newspapers for the puppies.

Blog 'scuse me? will promptly give you the lowdown on all the charcoal stained debauchery that will surely take place tonight. Unless of course we are in jail or watching after the puppies.


Here's a snippet of the treats we will be bringing to this year's Lachapalooza. So when you are thinking about inviting a vegan to your barbecue heed Cosmo's warning. God knows people hate chocolate chip cookies and booze.

Greatest Actor of the Past Nine Generations Showcase

Oh, Crispin Glover. Anyone who can join forces with Corey Feldman to inject some dignity and grace into Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is deserving of worship. This was further proven in the 1986 exercise in fabulosity, River's Edge, which stars not only the disturbingly talented and sexily coiffed Glover, but effing Dennis Hopper as a gun-toting, sex-doll-loving pot fiend.




Only the beautiful Crisp could elevate pill-popping and desperately attempting to conceal a brutal murder committed by an acquaintance to an art form. The skull cap and black outfit don't hurt, either. Keep up that 80s intensity, and while you're at it, dump Courtney Peldon.

Brad Pitt Finds His Calling

Dubai is one of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates and home to a new five-star hotel complex. Each of the 800 rooms in this luxurious hotel will play nothing but the movie Cool World. Who is responsible for this desert oasis? Who is the man brazen enough to order around licensed architects like they're production assistants on the set of Seven Years in Tibet? Is it possible that Floyd from True Romance's true calling was architecture? I know what you're all thinking: "Why is Brad Pitt still making movies when his passion is architecture?"
