R.I.P. Adam Yauch, M.C.A – Rock Hard
You can download the mp3. I found this originally as a part of “Illegal Art,” a compilation of banned music. AC/DC didn’t give the Beastie Boys permission to sample “Back in Black” and the song had to be pulled, really too bad it’s one of their better singles.

1984 Ibanez Roadstar II – My First Guitar

1985 Ibanez Roadstar II – Another Project
Recently I had been searching for a(nother) guitar to complement my Ibanez Roadstar II, which is my first guitar.

Dave Chappelle True Hollywood Stores – Rick James
I love this sketch, especially the part with the couch. I wish that Dave Chappelle would start making more shows, these are just too funny. You gotta see the one with Prince too. And for some reason it is split into two segments….. Comedy Central doesn’t have the DVD outtakes up on their site anymore,…

Win A Freaking Jet Pack
It’s more like a JetPack ride, or at least a gift certificate to partially pay for a jet pack rental. Other cool prizes, XBox 360, apparel, a car, a rolling alarm clock, spywatch. is the only thing you can win. 🙁 Sorry, your intrepid blogger needs to read contest rules more closely. What’s really slick is…

10¢ Android Apps For My New Galaxy S II
My old trusty iPhone 3GS has been my phone for three years. I purchased it for the purpose of sending Tweets for @SoundersASN for American Soccer News during the Sounder inaugural season. It’s held up remarkably well with the exception of the cracked screen near the bottom makes using some apps difficult and learning new…
