Saw this photo of Slater coming out of the water at the Rip Curl Pro held down in Chile (in ridiculous surf). My eyes perked a bit regarding the images layed out on the bottom of his board, I’d recognized them from somewhere before but never really knew their origin. Kelly explains…
…on his way out […]

When I watched some of the coverage of the latest terror plot, this time in London, I couldn’t help think to myself, “Yeah…okay…and what?”
So far we know that there were two cars found in London that had explosive material in them, but most likely weren’t configured correctly to explode. One person supposedly connected to […]

Bush: Maybe U.S. Military ‘Just Not Very Good’
WASHINGTON, DC—Departing from his usual hopeful rhetoric during a question-and-answer session with reporters in the White House Rose Garden, President Bush suggested Tuesday that the war in Iraq has not been successful because the nation’s armed forces are “just not very good.”

Radiohead - National Anthem

From 2000.
The other side of the Radiohead coin. The one where they take no prisoners and destroy. I remember watching this performance live on TV, jaw on the floor, dazed and confused by they end of it.

Hopefully I can fix the bugs tonight.

The saddest thing, this isn’t suprising in the least. From RawStory:
So clandestine is the Vice President’s work that he has created a new secret document designation: “Treated As: Top Secret/SCI.”
That’s not all: the piece also reveals that Cheney keeps ‘man-size’ Mosler safes on hand for “workaday business” and has destroyed all Secret Service visitor logs, […]

“No Surprises” live acoustic @ Le Reservoir

I Heart Sundays! Again, It’s the certain emotion that comes with a Sunday. A little melancholy but free, a time to explore, do what you want before society’s idea of the workweek gets you locked into 5 days of one direction. (at least that’s my take coming from […]

the new design is here.

you take a National steel guitar Master,,mix up some Steve Earle,Jim White, the most intense Neil Young you can imagine..add Coltrane,Robert Johnson, and a healthy dose of Surrealism, and you start to get the idea of what Chris Whitley was about.
Hardcore, apparently never owned a real shirt, easily one of the most compelling..even frightening […]
