Trailer Park Boys

Some of you may or may not know of the great series "Trailer Park Boys". A series featuring some characters such as Ricky, Bubbles, Julian, Mr. Lahey, Randy, etc. A beloved television series shared by Canada, the U.S., and probably more. They've come out with two fantastic movies, "Count Down to Liquor Day" and "Trailer Park Boys the Movie". I must say, in order to play such stupid out of control characters these actors must be very talented people. Kudos to them all, especially Mr. Lahey (John Dunsworth) who usually has to play a drunken trailer park supervisor, which im sure isnt a piece of cake. So those of you who have never heard of it here's the DL.

Location: Nova Scotia, Canada.

Director: Mike Clattenburg

Point of Series: None

Taking place in Nova Scotia, this fabulous series pokes fun at the crazy Canadians and their funny accents. Words like "aboot" instead of "about", the way they spell "center" "centre", and other funny stuff Canadians tend to do. (I can poke fun since I happen to be from Canada, without feeling too terrible.) Unfortunetly they have stopped making new episodes of Trailer Park Boys, and it's pretty upsetting. By far the funniest series I have ever watched, it's very random and unexpected. Thankfully the boys, Ricky, Julian, and Bubbles are still touring around making people everywhere laugh their asses off. Mr. Lahey and Randy also do they're own bits around at bars, legions, and other places of their choosing. Basically whereever theres liquor and cheeseburgers. So if these guys are still touring around, why the hell am I not watching brand new episodes of TPB's? Why? Please Mike, bring back the boys so everyone can enjoy TPB once again.

Starcraft 2

The much anticipated game of the year was released not too long ago. I myself am a dedicated player of SC2 and I've got to say it's a huge improvement. Blizzard changed many of the concepts but kept a lot the same as well, so that SC1 players wouldn't be completely lost. Blizzard changed some hot keys and at the same time left some the same. Many new units and strategies are being created and implemented by vet players and noobies alike. Not to mention Blizzard went over the top in graphics, I personally have to play on low just so I don't lag out in the loading screen - ouch. With all of SC2's great improvements there is one thing Blizzard failed to put in which I think everyone can agree on. Replays. What the hell happened with the replays? I remember in SC1 I could show my replays to anyone I damn well pleased, but now no one can view it but myself. Pretty lame. Hopefully they'll come out with a patch which lets you and friends view epic replays of legendary battles. If not, shame on you Blizzard, shame on you. Either way SC2 has been the topic of blogs all across the world-wide web. I myself believe Blizzard did the right thing with having everything online, that way they can add new shit whenever they pleased. Another great concept in SC2 is the new chat system. Oh buddy, when I saw that I could barely contain myself. It's like a built in MSN, I love it. You can even add people from facebook which I think is really cool, not to mention useful and convenient. Excellent game all around, and it'll keep all us Blizzard lovers busy until Diablo III comes out. Thumbs up for SC2.

Disturbed's New Album

Disturbed's new album is finally here. I just got it today and I'm already in love. As David Draiman said in an interview earlier yesterday, "it is as rhythmic and melodic as anything we have ever put out". Disturbed managed to change the music but not so much that it was completely different from their earlier works. In fact in many ways it's similar, but it has a certain "zazz" to it now, defiently more melodic in my opinion. Great songs like "The Animal" fits Disturbed's ...well, disturbing personality. It starts out with some strange noises as if you're on a space ship, then some heavy drumming followed by some demonic and animal-like growls. A perfect start to a perfect song. "And now we both shall dine in hell tonight" 300 Spartans anyone? Another big hit that has been playing on stations like 89x is "Another Way to Die", which basically says that we as human beings are screwing up the planet with oil spills, nuclear explosions, etc. Very powerful and moving song as well as melodic. Very pleased with how this album turned out and hope to hear more from them in the future. Long live Disturbed!

Marijuana, weed, pot, - Overrated?

We must ask ourselves, is marijuana overrated? I think most people can agree that it is, especially in America. Why is it illegal anyway? Why should marijuana be illegal while cigarettes, alcohol, salvia, and K2 incense is being sold legally? All these things are more deadly to the human body than marijuana will ever be. So why does the government STILL have marijuana illegal? I don't know how many times I have heard of  drunk driving accidents on the news. Let's see, when was the last time anyone heard of an accident caused under the influence of marijuana? Never. In fact the truth is, marijuana cures more than it hurts, not to mention that it hasnt been proven that marijuana itself causes cancer. But cigarettes have been known to cause cancer, yet it's still being sold at every gas station in the United States. I think the government is slowly legalizing it, starting in California because they don't like to be wrong about things. *cough* the prohibition of alcohol *cough*. That didnt work, it caused even more trouble. And it doesnt work for marijuana either, and it causes more crime because its illegal. Prohibition just doesnt work, it's useless. Think about it. The government makes marijuana illegal, then people grow and sell it for profit. Well who are these people? Criminals right? So the government makes the plant illegal, gives money to criminals, or "criminals", so, aren't they causing crime? Not the smartest thing I've heard. If pot was legal, the economy would sky rocket into an entire new era. So why would the government want to prevent that from happening? What do you think?
