Gay Marriage

First, watch the video.



Ok, so, you know about that thing about the Internet being a place for everyone to give their opinions and stuff? Yeah, I totally support it, etc etc. But then I can also give my opinion on how unbelievably stupid that kid is.

I trust that by now you have actually already seen the video and

a) realized that he is a retard
b) not realized that (in which case you're a retard )

So, he is a damn stupid person, that's for sure, but yeah he is a 12 year old... well, to hell with that, I'm a 12 year old for God's sake (and I use these words merely as a figure of speech)!

He used to be gay but then he "realized that that was a very bad thing and so he stopped, and now he is very interested in girls".
So... he used to like men, but then he realized that he would go to hell for it and he decided "Hey, let's stop this then! " and so, everything completely changed and he now likes girls. Suuuuuuure.

Plus, he thinks that any gay will change his way to be because he says, and I quote:

"You may think that, huh... being gay is good and it's not bad, but no, it's actually bad, so I'm telling you, it's bad, and, huh... you got to hell, and... huh..."

Yeaaaah. I'm not gay. But I'm not homophobic either and I recognize a bloody stupid person.

Now, this is a very polite blog (yeah like hell ), so excuse me for the rude word.


FUCK OFF.

I'm off.

The Invaders - "Spacing Out"




Every so often, I get my hands on a recording that is so BAD I play it without rest, refusing to take it off the turntable for weeks on end.  The Invaders' 1970 LP "Spacing Out" is such a record.  This band had it all: stripped down gut bucket funk arrangements featuring tight horns, tripped out flute solos, and some of the heaviest drum sounds ever to come out of my speakers.  Combine the stellar grooves with lush sheets of psychedelic reverb and tape delay and you've got a completely unique record of legendary status.  If The Meters had recorded with the JB horns at Lee Perry's Black Arc studio in Kingston, Jamaica, it would not sound unlike the Invaders.

Surprisingly, the band was formed in Bermuda, not the first place you'd think capable of producing authentic psychedelic funk records.  After much success on the hotel circuit in the late '60s, the Invaders were approached by a local producer, Eddy Demello, to cut 10 songs in the studio.  The session went well and the LP, along with a couple 45s, were released in Bermuda and the US.  Despite initial sales being positive, interest in the record dwindled quickly.  Demello ended up selling most of the stock off for nearly nothing, often giving the records away for free.  The "Spacing Out" LP is now considered a holy grail of funk vinyl and regularly changes hands for upwards of $1000.  Fortunately, the record was recently reissued and now enjoys a large and appreciative audience of beat diggers and soul fanatics worldwide.

"I Hate Fags" (watch it to understand)

We poke fun at a lot of people here. We poke fun at Christians cuz they believe in the Bible. We poke fun at the Nazis cuz they kill Jews and then say they didn't. We poke fun at Bush cuz... well, he's Bush. We might have poked fun at some homosexual people, I don't remember. But we certainly didn't poke fun at them BECAUSE they are homosexual. For some other reason.

Anywho, here's a video that might explain it even better than the marvelous paragraph above.

Well Hello

Well, FINALLY, the bastard that runs this blog (otherwise called "my brother") invited me to write and post stuff here.

I know very few people (or no people at all) read this blog, but I think I can change that, a little self-promoting never hurt anyone. Well, never hurt
me, anyways. But I know that if there is anyone reading the blog, you'll like Fosterpython (or Dohvid) better, because he's the one allowed (by himself, since he's the admin) to post the Duck Corners. I'm not old enough, apparently.

Well, so long, people that will soon be reading this, after some good promotion to the blog and who-knows-what.

Have a good one.
