The 10 Best Theme Songs Of All Time:

Throughout the history of this great country there have been many a memorable theme songs; some were simple and catchy, others were just plain awful(but still catchy). Here are the top ten theme songs ever to be heard by man:

.1

Indy!

Dun duh dun, dun dun dun, du…Ok I’ll stop.

Indians,crusaders,and Nazis? Whats a list without Indiana Jones? Well It’s no list at all. When it comes to theme songs Indys got em’ all beat. Every time I hear it I think a hip, grey haired man with one ear pierced, and a scar on his chin from his first date; but none the less the movies are great, and hopefully the newest installment will carry on the Legacy. I’m anticipating the crack of that whip on May 22nd.

.2

James Bond

No matter what generation your from(they don’t have computers in nursing homes) you will undoubtedly remember “James Bond” that lovable British man that sips on martinis while getting steamy massages from some of the worlds most beautiful women, just before he kills multitudes of trained assassins(mostly with his pistol). Lets be honest, I don’t care how much you liked the movies, if you’ve seen one, then you’ve seen em all. Same story with different places,women,and villains; not that it’s a bad thing. The recent 007 follow up, was by all means a success, with fast cars, more women,sweet action and an “oww my balls” scene. We will be looking forward to the many follow ups.

.3

“Luke, I am your father.”
I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself. “Star Wars” Three of the best sci fi movies ever made, and three of the worst movies ever made(episodes 1,2,3) I can remember painfully watching paragraph, after paragraph fade into the distance while I waited for the actual movie to start; there were a few times I didn’t think it would, and if it hadn’t I probably would have stayed until the end anyways. When I hear that theme song now, I desperately try to clear my mind of all the negative things I want to do to George Lucas for ruining an awesome trilogy. Still it deserves a high place among any movie list…

.4

This gets a spot on the list hands down! Possibly the best television theme song ever(sorry bonanza). I can still remember the episode about the guy who sells his soul to the devil for a t.v diner or something. Great show, no matter how dated it is. If it wasn’t for shows like this we wouldn’t have people like Stephen King…Wait a minute.. Scratch that, this show takes no responsibility for Stephen King(he’s an alien).

.5

impossible

Well at least the church of Scientology did something right when they let Tom Cruise off his leash to make “Mission: Impossible”. They just messed up when they let him out to make two more despicable sequels. If history teaches us anything it’s: With a great theme song, often comes great consequence.

.6

Even though they made like twenty of these, they are still inspiring. Who has seen these movies and not started lifting weights? Every time that song comes on I want to jump on a treadmill, punch cows(dead cows), and scream “ADRIAN!!”. The Rocky movies are timeless(even though Sylvester Stalone looks like he’s about to drool on himself at any given moment), and so is the theme song.

.7

Who remebers that creepy theme? Just thinking about it brings back a flood of memories; from aliens to werewolves, “The X Files” had it all. Especially crappy CGI. “The X Files” created a entire generation of paranormal nerds, if that doesn’t mean something….Well it means something. Now we have to watch crappy ghost hunter shows like “Paranormal State“. If I want to watch a bunch of misfits talk about ghosts, I’ll just go to waffle house at two in the morning. Don’t forget the second installment is coming out in July.

.8


What’s better than a clueless detective trying to catch criminals that outsmart him? How about random fights with a Chinese guy, that end in complete destruction of nice houses. “The Pink Panther” movies are timeless; well the old one’s that is. Steve Martin doesn’t have anything on Peter Sellers. His remake should be considered a blasphemy to good comedy’s. If you haven’t seen these movies than you had better get to a blockbuster, or netflix pronto.

CowaBunga!

“Cowabunga dude!”

I Don’t care what anyone says, “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” deserves a place on the list. .Even if you didn’t watch the amazing cartoons, you still played the arcade game for the NES. Just a buncha teenage turtles kicking back eating pizza, playing video games, and kickin’ ass! The theme song was pretty typical for a “kids show” but it was still catchy. Although the new movie wasn’t great, it wasn’t a total abomination either.

.10

Last, but not least is “The A Team!”. Old chain smoker with a machine gun - 2,000$(a show) A big black guy covered in gold - 2,500$(a show) Huge body count, and not one drop of blood - Priceless. My Friends mom used to make us all watch “The A Team” whenever we went to his house, it was our history lesson I guess, because “The A Team” wasn’t around when I was growing up. Needless to say the theme for this show is “Priceless”. Don’t believe me? Well here it is(without the video):

The Infamous Hanoi Jane

\

Jane Fonda, or “Hanoi Jane” is an example of our corrupt justice system. Why was she never charged with treason? Why wasn’t she ever tried in a court? .IF you don’t know who Jane Fonda is, or what she did during the Vietnam war, then prepare to be enlightened. In July 1972 Jane had a nice vacation over in Hanoi Vietnam; Hanoi is the capital of Vietnam. Once there Jane Fonda started the most controversial “campaign” if you will, in recent American history…

After visiting historical attractions, and talking to people “of all walks of life”, Jane Fonda made a radio announcement, aimed to encourage the Vietnamese, and discourage the American troops, and POW’S. Here is the disturbing announcement she made:

hanoi hilton
Hanoi Jane’s Broadcast from Hanoi,
on August 22, 1972 from the Hotel Especen;
Hanoi-Vietnam

The following public domain information is a transcript from the US Congress House Committee on Internal Security, Travel to Hostile

Areas, HR 16742, 19-25 September, 1972, page 7671. (From the CompuServe Military Veteran’s Forum)

[Radio Hanoi attributes talk on DRV visit to Jane Fonda; from Hanoi in English to American servicemen involved in the Indochina War,

1 PM GMT, 22 August 1972. Text: Here's Jane Fonda telling her impressions at the end of her visit to the Democratic Republic of Vietnam;

(follows recorded female voice with American accent)

This is Jane Fonda. During my two-week visit in the Democratic Republic of Vietnam, I've had the opportunity to visit a great many places

and speak to a large number of people from all walks of life-workers, peasants, students, artists and dancers, historians, journalists, film actresses,

soldiers, militia girls, members of the women's union, writers.

I visited the (Dam Xuac) agricultural coop, where the silk worms are also raised and thread is made. I visited a textile factory, a kindergarten in Hanoi. The beautiful Temple of Literature was where I saw traditional dances and heard songs of resistance. I also saw unforgettable ballet about the guerrillas training bees in the south to attack enemy soldiers. The bees were danced by women, and they did their job well.

In the shadow of the Temple of Literature I saw Vietnamese actors and actresses perform the second act of Arthur Miller's play All My Sons, and this was very moving to me-the fact that artists here are translating and performing American plays while US imperialists are bombing their country.

I cherish the memory of the blushing militia girls on the roof of their factory, encouraging one of their sisters as she sang a song praising the blue sky of Vietnam-these women, who are so gentle and poetic, whose voices are so beautiful, but who, when American planes are bombing their city, become such good fighters.

I cherish the way a farmer evacuated from Hanoi, without hesitation, offered me, an American, their best individual bomb shelter while US bombs fell near by. The daughter and I, in fact, shared the shelter wrapped in each others arms, cheek against cheek. It was on the road back from Nam Dinh, where I had witnessed the systematic destruction of civilian targets-schools, hospitals, pagodas, the factories, houses, and the dike system.

As I left the United States two weeks ago, Nixon was again telling the American people that he was winding down the war, but in the rubble-strewn streets of Nam Dinh, his words echoed with sinister (words indistinct) of a true killer. And like the young Vietnamese woman I held in my arms clinging to me tightly-and I pressed my cheek against hers-I thought, this is a war against Vietnam perhaps, but the tragedy is America's.

One thing that I have learned beyond a shadow of a doubt since I've been in this country is that Nixon will never be able to break the spirit of these people; he'll never be able to turn Vietnam, north and south, into a neo-colony of the United States by bombing, by invading, by attacking in any way. One has only to go into the countryside and listen to the peasants describe the lives they led before the revolution to understand why every bomb that is dropped only strengthens their determination to resist.

I've spoken to many peasants who talked about the days when their parents had to sell themselves to landlords as virtually slaves, when there were very few schools and much illiteracy, inadequate medical care, when they were not masters of their own lives.

But now, despite the bombs, despite the crimes being created-being committed against them by Richard Nixon, these people own their own land, build their own schools-the children learning, literacy- illiteracy is being wiped out, there is no more prostitution as there was during the time when this was a French colony. In other words, the people have taken power into their own hands, and they are controlling their own lives.

And after 4,000 years of struggling against nature and foreign invaders-and the last 25 years, prior to the revolution, of struggling against French colonialism-I don't think that the people of Vietnam are about to compromise in any way, shape or form about the freedom and independence of their country, and I think Richard Nixon would do well to read Vietnamese history, particularly their poetry, and particularly the poetry written by Ho Chi Minh.

[end of recording]

After making that speech, Ms. Fonda was compared to the likes of Tokyo Rose, and Hanoi Hannah (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanoi_Hannah) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokyo_Rose)
I wonder how Henry Fonda felt after hearing this? Henry Fonda was Jane’s father. His political affiliations are nothing like his daughters. Some of his friends were even WWII hero’s(Jimmy Stewart).

Maybe worse than the speech, are the photographs taken of Jane Fonda sitting on an anti aircraft gun, used to shoot down American pilots, or her calling the POW’S liars after they accused the Vietnamese of torture, and starvation. In my opinion we never should have let her back into the country, she’s a waste of American soil. She’s a wannabe communist anyways:“Its my fondest wish, that some day, every American
will get down on their knees and pray to God that some day
they will have the opportunity to live in a Communist Society.”
-Jane Fonda

Jane Fonda did make a public apology:The transcript reads:

Barbara Walters:

“There are still people who . . . I guess, feel you have never apologized. Would you like to just say something to them now?”

Jane Fonda:

“Well . . . it’s not . . . I would like to say something not just to . . . the Vietnam veterans . . . in New England . . . but . . . to . . . to men who were in Vietnam who . . . who I hurt . . . or who’s pain I caused to . . .deepen because of things I said . . . or did . . . I . . . I feel that I owe them an apology . . . my intentions were never to hurt them . . . or to make their situation worse, it was . . . it was the contrary . . . I was trying to help end the war . . . but there were times when I was thoughtless and careless about it and I . . . and I am very sorry . . . that I hurt them . . . and I want to apologize to them and to their families . . . “

This was released to the media:

“I would like to say something, not just to Vietnam veterans in New England, but to men who were in Vietnam, who I hurt, or whose pain I caused to deepen because of things that I said or did,” Fonda said. “I was trying to help end the killing and the war, but there were times when I was thoughtless and careless about it and I’m . . . very sorry that I hurt them. And I want to apologize to them and their families.”

You can’t aid in the murder, and torture of hundreds of people, and then make a half assed apology to the public. If Jane really meant what she said; she should have stayed away from the touchy subjects, i.e The Iraq war, or politics in general. Did I mention that after the war Jane went back to Vietnam to attend a special service in honor of her; with her son “Troy” whom she named after the communist hero Nguyen Van Troi. Nguyen Van Troi was executed in South Vietnam for attempting to assassinate Robert McNamara The U.S Secretary of Defense. Hanoi Jane is a traitor, and is still alive and well.

Why political correctness CANT work

shhhh!
“Politically correct” basically means to not offend anyone. It is impossible to never offend anyone, it is however very possible to go out of ones way every day to try and never offend anyone. This seems to be the major goal most politically correct people shoot for. Personally I find this to be a censorship of sorts. There is virtually nothing you can say, that won’t offend someone, therefore you are limited to talking about things such as the weather, or how many stars are in the sky, no real opinions, or views could ever be expressed in a politically correct society. If I were to say to you: “In general black people can run faster,jump higher,and eat more chicken than most any other race out there.” It would be considered very politically in-correct. Why? Well to assert that one race(mainly African American,Hispanic,Asian) is in any way different from a Caucasian, is in some peoples’ opinion racist. Personally I find it racist to even think that way. Why? Well when you think like that your automatically targeting, and separating that race based on there abilities, and ethnicity, like that is a reason to handicap them.

Political correctness would never work because I find the philosophy offensive. Thats right, I honestly find it offensive. That goes to prove it would never work; if a philosophy, or practice’s whole goal is to not offend anyone, at anytime, and that same practice offends some, then the whole idea is struck down completely. Not a very strong idea if you ask me. Is the practice of not offending people(when possible) good? Yes, its great, but when you go overboard with it, it becomes an obstacle of free speech. When I say free speech I don’t mean you should be able to say anything you want without any consequences at all. I believe their should be freedom of speech as long as your not imposing on the rights of others. I.e say your at the local Mc donald’s drive thru, and you take forever ordering while the driver behind you starts to get more, and more angry. If freedom of speech was absolute, then that driver could walk up to your window and tell you that since you pissed him off he’s going to rape your child. As long as he never actually did that, it would be completely legal to express that thought(in a politically correct society). That’s why there are boundaries to this freedom. When that driver told you that, he is imposing on your personal rights. Firstly he is communicating threats, and secondly he is using words that you find offensive in the order he placed them. If he came up to your window and said “my daughter was kidnapped and raped, keep a good eye on your child.” You wouldn’t find that offensive. Why? Because he wasn’t directing a vulgar threat towards your child. Sentence structure alone can cause an offense.

Are there absolutes? Some would say “No, I decide what is right and wrong,according to what I believe.” but many would say, “Yes, there have to be absolutes,otherwise anything goes.” If you were among those that don’t believe in absolutes maybe you should think again. Do you believe I should be allowed to kill you without any consequences? Well you must, because if there are no absolutes then everyone decides what is right and wrong according to their own beliefs. So it would be ok for the guy in the airplane to kill the pilot and fly the plane into a building because there are no absolutes, and he is doing what he feels is right. Who are you to tell him that your absolutes are right, and his are wrong? You would be suggesting that you are a more superior being, and that would certainly be politically incorrect, because if you are superior than that would mean someone else is inferior(obviously). When you really study “political correctness” you will find that it takes either a very ignorant, or naive individual to really believe it.

What is the unforgivable sin(uh-oh, i said sin, politically incorrect) of pious, politically correct individuals? Intolerance. You must be totally tolerant of anything, and everything, which is completely asinine. It is impossible to be totally tolerant of everything, it just doesn’t make sense in any way, shape, or form. How could you be tolerant of everything if there are intolerant people? Are you supposed to do away with the intolerant people? Who’s to say that’s ok? The founder of the philosophy? That would mean he was some sort of god to be worshiped, and that once again goes against the entire idea. It’s a major flaw in the “system”. Looking at political correctness is like “The Butterfly Effect” the cover looks really cool, but when you watch the movie it’s completely flawed, and riveted with plot holes. That doesn’t mean it didn’t have some cool ideas, or scenes but as a whole it just doesn’t work.

X files 2: I Want To Believe

x-2

Well it’s here(unofficially), but at least I have the trailer in High Definition goodness for your viewing pleasure. Evidently the trailer leaked May 12th(monday) and it is unofficial as of now. The release date is July 25th(It’s probably going to change ).The trailer looks decent, my only suggestion would be: change the name? It just doesn’t really seem to suit the movie, but thats just personal taste. Watch the trailer and decide for yourself:

If that video doesn’t work for you(youtube sucks) Here’s a link to a non-youtube video: http://teaser-trailer.com/2008/02/x-files-2-leaked-trailer.html

Gears Of War: 2

goa2

Words can’t capture the eagerness I’m experiencing awaiting “Gears Of War 2″. My fingers can almost feel the shrink wrap falling beneath their anxious rips. That shiny plastic case… No but really, it looks awesome, and I can’t wait. The first game was amazing(although short), and the second is probablly going to be better. Whats more fun than cutting deformed monsters into pieces with a chainsaw? Nothing, well except maybe curb stomping them, or using them for shields as hundreds of relentless bullets pump through their scared hide, turning it to a swiss cheese carcass; or maybe reducing your enemies to a pair of smoldering feet by tagging them with a grenade? If that sounds like fun, you have either played “Gears Of War”, or you want too. If your one of the peoples who have been living in a cave, and haven’t had a chance to see the game play of “GOA 2″  then this footage is for you:

The Passively Multiplayer Online Game

Well, here it is…PMOG! The newest extension in firefox(that lets you play with mines,portals,armor,and loot!)! How exciting. I’m a shoat in pmog, that’s their term for newb. I’ve already spent half my day dropping mines, teleporting peeps, and racking up my gold(so I can do it all over again tommorow).The game has a really interesting concept, and so far seems pretty entertaining. I’m still new, and so I’ve just been messing around with it; but the possibilities seem endless, from promoting your blog, to advertising a new product, or just using it for the LULZ. I haven’t used it enough to give an in depth review on it(or really understand it), but check it out for yourself. I predict this will be an internet success!

Sorry…

sorry...

To all my loyal fans *cough*, my deepest, and most sincere apologies for abandoning this poor blog. I was, and still am caught up in life. I am not going to promise anything but this: I promise to STOP being lazy, and to TRY and keep the blog updated at least three times a week with short stories, ROFL internetz sites, reviews on various movies, DIY stuff etc..
So bookmark me and visit the site once a day to boost my moral and encourage me in posting quality article that you will enjoy :)

Beware! The “nutmeat” chopper.

This post is for all you men out there. If you value the key part to your reproductive organs, read this!
I had noticed recently a change in my fathers normal behavioral patterns, and just assumed it was old age creeping up on him(he’s 52). He seemed to have lost all of his “pep” so to speak. He hasn’t been as full of energy as he was not so long ago. He’s had a lot more “down” time, doesn’t work as much, and seems very submissive to my mom; which isn’t normal for him. He’s usually a very dominant male, who is supportive but also assertive, and normally his decisions are the ones that get set in the house. Not to say he, and my mother don’t discuss things, and agree on a set proposal, he is just the leader; and my mother the follower…That is until about three weeks ago…
I was in my parent’s bedroom, looking for my social security card I had left in their bureau the previous week(I was going on a trip, and didn’t need it, nor did I want to bring it in case I would lose my wallet). Well, I was looking through the drawers when something caught my eye. You know when you’re looking in someone else’s room for something of yours, and you see something interesting and decide to see what it is; but you know you really shouldn’t because it’s invading someones privacy. Well it was one of those moments, and curiosity got the best of me. So I reached to the back of the drawer, and pulled this out:NUTMEATCHOPPER1

OK, I’ll admit, when I first saw it I didn’t really think too much about it. I was like “ok, its a nut meat chopper.”, then I saw a book in the same drawer, it was titled “Easy Living For Castrated Men.” That’s when it hit me: NUTMEAT! Nutmeat chopper?? Oh my gosh. I should have known better. My poor father… No wonder he has been so mellow, and subservient to mother. He has no nuts! After that I felt justified to search the room, which I did. I found heavy sedatives, sewing needles, a tourniquet, and a guide to stop heavy bleeding. That was enough to answer all my questions, well not all of them, just that one nutty question about his man-hood. I placed everything back where I had found it and quietly left the room. I don’t know whether to cry or laugh. It really is terrible, and to make things worse, after I found it I did some research on teh interweb, and have come to find out that this is a growing popularity with women. It seems they have their own secret language they use to communicate plans to each other. You can see it in blogs, and web sites all across the globe. It’s a horrible trend, and I encourage all of you to search your homes immediately!
Since that day I have slept with my door locked every night, just in case someone has plans for me. Good luck to all of you, and keep your eye’s open for anything suspicious. I would also like to add a couple more pictures of the “ball eating monster”. Just in case anyone is interested in seeing how painful the castrating process would be.
