Gorillaz strike back!

So here's the new Gorillaz single. Albarn's the mainstay of course. But on the hip-hop tip, Dan and Del are gone for the very timely king of remix Danger Mouse on production and some guy named Trugoy droppin rhymes. Danger Mouse is good sounds better than his Gray album. Trugoy is also good but no Del his flow just dont compare, but I think he fits the character better.

In other hip-hop news just when you thought Kanye West was settled in a dual producer/rapper role he goes out and makes a fucking great video for Common's "The Corner."

Drool!

There was a time I was spending a lot (too much) money on shoes. But I still reap the benefits. I'm putting together a little getup and out of my shoe-pile tumbles just the perfect pair. Most recently I rediscovered the last pair of shoes I bought for waiting tables. I bought them cheap at Ross. But then the other day I sported them with the only pair of Levi's I own and was like woah. It doesn't hurt that they're made by Reef who has the best surf gear ass- I mean ad campaign:


I've absolutely fallen in love with these shoes:


I always like to keep a good pair of wrestling shoes around. Asics makes the best. And I got turned on to the Onitsuka line of Asics by Raygun. I always wrestle in the most basic shoe because they always seem the best. The ones with pivot points and the like never work as well for me. I think because so much of wrestling is being out of position. There's a certain way to execute moves but if your wrestling a formidable opponent you have to be able to come from any angle. I must own these shoes soon.
Yeah.

Who is Spike Jonze?

Well it's good to know when Spike Jonze isn't making a really crappy Ludacris Video he's making a really cool Adidas tennis shoe commercial. Well I guess I shouldn't be too cynical those Adidas tennis shoes are pretty cool. I wouldn't mind a pair myself.

Two points to whoever tells me who's the musical artist featured my best guess is Hope Sandoval but I dont know.

If you look to your right ----->

You shall see I've just posted my del.icio.us page. It's nothing special except basically a site where I post all the cool links I come across. It's cool for me because I've lost so many cool boomarks over the years and now I'll have universal place to access them. Cool for you so you can see all the cool shit I come across on my all too much time spent on the net. I first saw this over on Dan's blog. He always knows about all the cool shit first.

The moment you've all been waiting for.

More Change

I'm excited I finally figured out how to add links to this blog template. I've been wanting to personalize this blog more for a while now.

If anyone know about some real editing what I'd really like to do is In my title banner put the image of Robocop where ED-209 shoots at him and it zooms in on Robocop's face and there's a hole in his helmet exposing his eye. I'd have that right underneath my title. That'd be awesome.

Confession

Well I've been kind of bull-headed about my most recent trials and tribulations. The truth is I've been pretty bummed about injuring my knee and of course the lingering feelings that are heartbreak. I been trying to just muscle through it. But things have suffered for it that shouldn't have. I've finally gotten back to work on the movie as of today ironically the day that I found out for sure that I will need surgery on my knee. I tore a ligament which I've never done before. So hopefully it will be as easy a recovery as the meniscus tear was.

But in better news I finished the script for the first part of Tussle. I'm very proud of what's come of it. What's coming together in my head is even more exciting.

Fuckin 'ell if the new Sin City trailer doesn't gimme a bigger rush than most any illegal narcotic I've ever consumed.

Change

guess who just went gmail.


I've decide to ally myself even moreso with the giant that is google. I got nothing but love for this company as it hosts my blogs. Google is the place to be.
