Locals go barking mad

What in the name of piss is that, i here you ask (unless you all ready know, because you have read this story on much more credible blog or from differnet source)?

Bad tree puns incoming

Some of the locals in a small US town beleaf that they have seen the face of the late great King Of Pop in the stump of a brich tree.

some of a brich, said this “Michael Jackson was an icon to us. To Stockton, Michael Jackson meant more to us than Jesus, to some people. I think they’re both about even.“  well I am stumped that some local saps think that the can see the face Jacko in a tree stump. Meanwhile, in Cork, locals are asking builders to leaf a tree alone, as they beleve that the face of the virgin Mary. authorities are still trying to get to the root of the problem.

MJ musical legend

Michael Joseph Jackson  entertained the world for a hell of along time. from his days in the Jackson 5 to the brillant solo records he released , the man was a musical legend.

I am not going to into his controversal past, because I think that it is the worng time to do so. lets just remember his brillant music, as he was the  king of pop.He will never be replaced

Michael Jackson, not only changed the face of pop music, he changed the way music videos were done, and if that were not enough he was the best dancer of all time. here is an example of how he did this, and the video I have chosen is Smooth Criminal.

Now that Jackson has passed away, a part of our childhoods has past away, the man will never be replaced.

RIP Michael Joseph Jackson, you will be sorely missed.

Slane Castel.

This is just a post to register my disgust at Slane O9, It was not down Oasis, they were brilliant they played a brilliant set that contained all of the songs that you would want to hear them play and closed the set off with married with children.

The Prodigy were also amazing, much like the prodigy they played many of their hits as well a sprinkling of newer tracks, and the decision  to round of their set with Out Of Space was an inspired choice.

However what was really bad about the gig was stunning bad organisation of the gig this year.

It took me over 20 minuets to get a beer, but I was lucky, as it took some people over an hour to get a drink from the beer tent. I  know there were lots of people went to the gig, but the organisations knew how many tickets they had sold and their should have had more beer tents. I only saw two beers tents at the gig, their should have been a lot more.

But what made things even worse for the event was getting home from the concert, their was lack of busses after the gig the amount of people that were left stranded in the middle of Slane with no way of getting home after wards. The concert finished at 11:30 but I did not get home until half three. And wasn’t home in my bed till half past four in the morning.

I went to see the Rolling Stones last year and had no such problem. You could get a beer with no hassle This experience has really put me off going to see any one who is playing in Slane. I really don’t give a shit about who playing, even if they manage to resurrect John Lennon and George Harrison for a Beatles  reunion I still wouldn’t go. Any body that I was talking to who as left behind at the gig have agreed with me. Even those who lucky enough to get on a bus were stuck there. when I got back to Dublin and I got in to taxi, the dirver asked me did he mind if he picked other people going in the same direction, I said yes, because after all they were in the same boat as me. when he picked up three people going in my direction on of the people who I got into the taxi said that they got on to a bus as soon as the gig was finsihed but were stuck on the bus for over five hours.

Agian I would like to stees that the music was brillant  but the day was ruined by poor organisation of the gig. I have been really put off going to down to Slane, maybe next year I will clam down and I want to go along again, but this moment in time I really cannot see me wanting to head down to Slane Castel agian.

The Hangover review

I am just back  from seeing the latest movie from Todd Phipps, the person behind Old School. The hangover tells the story of four men who wake up after a stag party in Las Vegas only to find that the room that they rented is in bits and the groom is missing.

The men set about retracing their steps so that they can find their friend and get back to LA for the wedding. What ensues in a comic roller coaster, that will make you laugh  until your sides hurt.

Top to bottom this is an excellent comedy movie. It is extremely funny and not one of the set pieces miss the mark. Just when you think that the movie is running out steam, you are blindsided by something extremely funny. I am not going to tell about any of the set pieces, because the comedy comes from the surprise factor.

There are a few things that I didn’t like, which is to be to expected as no movie is perfect. But any of the things that I found flat with are really just me nitpicking and did not do anything to stifle my enjoyment of The Hangover

Anyway that concludes my short little review of the excellent comedy The Hangover, the only other movie that I can think of that has the potential to topple The Hangover as Comedy of the year is the upcoming Bruno Movie.

For all the bitching that I have done about Brittan’s Got Talent, Imust admit that this performace may be one of the coolest and strangest things that I have ever seen on the tv.

sit back and enjoy the spectacle

not

how could you not like that? it is a guy dressed as Dath Vader, backed by a load of storm troopers dancing (all be it quite badly if I am being honest) to Thriller.

thought when he took off his helmet, were you that shocked that he looked like that?

Artist: Eminem
Album: Relapse
Label: Shady Records
Released: Monday 18th May 2009

Eminem’s fourth album was released Encore  was released back in 2004,  to mixed reviews. I personaly thought that it was the worst album of his career, however it was far from a bad record, I thought that it was good. But when you compare it to his three previous albums, it was not as good those.

Now five years on, he has done a Jay Z and come out of retirement. I don’t know think that anybody was surprised that Eminem has made a comeback, it was always going to happen, it was just a matter of when it was going to happen.

So after a five year wait for a new album by eminem, is it worth hearing. To be honest with you I was going to say that this album was shit, I feared that this album would be shit. But his comeback record is a surprisingly good record.

I liked this record or not, but I have been a fan of his years so I like this. But if you hate him this record is not going to change your mind on him, but if you were already a fan I think that you will really love his comeback album.

For every single  famous event that has happened on planet earth,  a  conspiracy  theory  about the story exists. Some of theories that exists have some  logic to them, and some of them are just bizarre and unbelievable . I wouldn’t be suspired that if a conspiracy  theory about what I had for my lunch yesterday, but I degrees.

One such theory is that the moon landings was filmed in a studio .

Some of the reasons put forward were

On the footage beamed from the moon the flag that was planted in the ground was seen clearly waving, but how is that possible because their isn’t any wind on the moon. So how in windless environment  how could the flag waved??

The moon landings were faked because at the time they were locked in a bitter space race with the Russians, and a race that they wanted to win it for national pride.

Another theory that has some basis in logic is that the American government was behind the September 11th and blamed Osama Bin :Laden so that could invade to get oil as America was in desperate need to secure oil.

One of the points that has been made over and over again is that the buildings that fell, were blown up because the buildings were designed in such a way that it was impossible for a building to fall due to fire.

Another massive conspiracy theory is the new world order are controlling the world at the moment, that is the condensed version of the theory. To be honest with you I don’t know if that true, and to be honest with you I don’t really care, the way I see it that it will be another group of douches running the world. Oh shit, maybe I shouldn’t say that I don’t want to be taken out and shot in the head for calling them douches (by the way take that last point with a large pinch of salt).

I would like to stress that I am not saying that I believe these conspiracy theories, all I am, saying is  that the theories, are grounded in some logic. Another reason why I like reading about things like that is that they make me think, and anything that gets you questioning the world in which we inhabit is not a bad thing .

So our  entery the Irish  (I am irish, so that is why I am writing this post) Sinead Mulvey and Black Daisy failed to qualify for the final of the Eurovision song contest in Russia .

Why did we fail to quallify for the fianals for the second year in a row?

This could be that  Europe still being pissed off for us sending Dustin the Turkey last year?

Could it be down to the fact that Europe are pissed off becuse  we vote no to the Lisbon Treaty?

So who should we sent to the Eurovision next year? here is who I would pick as our entry next year

wouldn’t that kick fucking ass at the Eurovision?

I feel obligated to say, before reading this post, that if your not from the island of Ireland, then the following post would mean anything to you. Sorry, check back for the next post.

Ever since Pat Kenney is decided that he was going to leave his position as host of The Late Late Show at the end of the current series. Every one began wonder just who is going to take over from Kenny as the third host of the show.

Some of the names thrown about were Gerry Ryan, Miriam O Callaghan, Daragh O Brien.

After weeks and weeks of speculation, a couple of hours ago the name of the new host of the show was revealed  and it was Ryan Turbidity. I did not here the news live, I heard via a posting from a friend of my on face, the post went exactly as follow

“RYAN “UTTER GOBSHITE” TUBRIDY GOT THE LATE LATE SHOW! CUNT! CUNT! CUNT!”

I wasn’t sure if this was corrects, so I decided to cross reference this, and typed into Google and proved to be correct and it was. So I went on to the sites borads.ie, and I was taken a back by the sheer amount of bile that was being posted on their.

I don’t know what he has done to piss so many people, I know that people cant like everyone but Jesus fucking Christ talk about an over the top reaction. I think that he is the best person for the job, as RTE want to go with somebody that they wont rock the boat, and he wont rock the boat.

Lets look at the evidence.

Over his years in working in the Irish media Turbidity has shown he can do hard news as he presenter Ryan Turbidity. He has shown that he can proven that he can do light heart stuff on 2fm’s breakfast show the Full Irish and RTE Radio One’s mid morning show, imaginatively called The Turbidly Show.

He can do both light natured and serious topics, both of which the show deals with. We decry Pat Kenny couldn’t do, now we have somebody has proven he can do both. The guy is the correct choice, the evidence speaks for it self.

I really hope that Ryan Turbidity pulls off a Daniel Craig, by proving all the people that are decrying him wrong before he has even gotten a chance.

Movie: Stark Trek

Director: JJ Abrams

cert 12a Well I am just back from the big budjet reboot of the star trek movie. Having not lived under a rock, I was well aware of the tv serirs, but I never saw any of the orginal 60’s serirs, thought back in the day I did I have a soft spot for Star Trek: The Next Generation, but that shit is irrelevant because I am here to give my views of the latest big screen version of the story.

I don’t want to give too much of the plot away, or what happens, but I really enjoyed the movie, I really did. The movie looks fanstacis, and JJ Abrams dose a really good job behind the camera. The GCI is curtting edge.

The movie runs for 2 hour 20 minuets, but there is so much going on, that you don’t notice the lengthy running time. However, after watching an online reivew of the movie on www.spoonyexpriement.com( a site that I highly recommend) he did ponit out how stupid some elements of the polt was, which I didn’t notice while watchig the movie.

Bottom line, it was well worth the admission price.
