Today We Spell Redemption, B.L.A.Z.E.R.S.

Ira and I were lucky enough to get some tickets to the Boston game that took place last night at the Rose Garden. Thanks Jenny for the tics! This was an astounding win for our young Trailblazers who were without my main man, AllStar Brandon Roy. The first two & half quarters it seemed hopeless for the guys but they were able to linger around, thanks to Steve Blake and his amazingness! Lamarcus wasn't playing very well at first, I think Garnett is really hard on him (pause.)

Birds Eye View of the game! Not great seats but not bad, I have eagle eye vision.

The play of the game that turned the Blazers play around came from Travis BLACKOUT Outlaw bamming on the Celtics after a Lamarcus Aldridge miss. Aldridge would go for 10 points in the fourth quarter and shoved KG in the head after KG gave him a little chin music during a dead ball. Both received technical fouls.

All in all it was a fun ass game and everybody afterwards hootin & hollerin slapping Hi-Fives with each other and yelling visciously at Celtics fans, it was awesome. Finally Ira gets to experience a Blazers victory in person!

Tricky Ricky!

W e d n e s d a y , D e c e m b e r 3 1 , 2 0 0 8
Once again my main man Ricky Davis out-does himself, as he recently got hit with a 5-game suspension for violating the NBA's Anti-Drug Policy.

BIG SHOCKER THERE.

Here's the thing though...you have to be a true dumbass to actually get caught "violating" the policy. (Shout out to JWill!) You see, the league only tests veterans more than once a season if they "find cause," which they did in Ricky's case. But even then, you're only given 4 "random" tests throughout the year, and you're given a heads up 2 weeks prior to each test. Once your four tests are done, you're free to do as you please til next season. Fail one test, and you have to enter the BS Anti-Drug program. Caught twice and you pay a $15K fine and re-enter the program. (At that point, maybe you don't smoke during your 2-week heads up period?) It's not until a third failed test that you get suspended.

Well done Tricky Ricky.

(And for those keeping score at home - He smashed the blonde. She was 17. It was in Utah so it's cool. The middle chick was likely the target for the night though. Well, probably all 3.)

Whatever Happened To: T.V.?

T u e s d a y , D e c e m b e r 3 0 , 2 0 0 8
T.V. sucks now! I'm at a loss. My favorite current show PUSHING DAISIES has been canceled by ABC and I am left to wallow in disgust at the rate of quality television being issued the "BOOT" by the cheap success of crappy faux Reality & game show television. To this day I am still upset by the cancellation of the greatest show of all time, ARRESTED DEVELOPMENT. Now we can add PUSHING DAISIES to the list of shows that were never given proper due because of the moronic minds that make up the T.V. audience.

Anyway, what ever happened to T.V.? I guess maybe now I have to start looking other places for my viewing pleasure. In comes the internet. No, I'm not talking about porn here (thats only part of the time.) I'm talking about Rob Corddry's new web show Childrens' Hospital. It recently released online at thewb.com, and yes I do mean the former T.V. network The WB. They have been relegated to the online community. This webisode, television series wannabe doesn't have the originality or genius of the two previous mentioned shows, but it is damn funny and being well received on the net. You gotta hurry though because the episodes won't be up much longer. They run until the end of the day on the 31st of December.

Writer/Director Rob Corddry had this to say when asked what the shows about...
“Beautiful doctors playing out awkward sexual politics in front of pre-teen cancer patients.”
I think thats what will pull you in right away. Oh, Robs in clown make-up the whole time too. Check for other comedians & actresses like Ed Helms from The Office, Lake Bell, Rob Hueble, Megan Mullally and even Stephen Colbert as the voice on the intro video. Enjoy!

- THE B.O.P.


Icon A5

S a t u r d a y , D e c e m b e r 2 7 , 2 0 0 8
If you know me, you know I do not like flying at all, which makes it strange that I am loving this new product. While I don't love flying, I love the idea and execution of flying aircraft. It baffles my mind that we have created machines that can take to the skies and even space. I think actually flying a plane myself may help me deal with the whole flying issue, and maybe this Icon A5 could help me do just that.

The Icon A5 is essentially a jet-ski for the sky. It is a personal aircraft currently undergoing test flights. It has a scheduled production delivery of late '10 for an estimated price of $139,000. Comparatively speaking, that is cheap for an airplane. It looks like the A5 is poised to become the new toy of the rich crowd that loves their Lamborghinis and yachts.

I love how it borrows some design elements from cars, like the headlights and opening windows, so you can feel the air. the instrument panel looks a lot like a car's dashboard.

Thanks, wired.com for the story. Follow the link for the full article.

Business in the Front, Party in the Back

This little gem comes to us from a friend's boyfriend. Rumors of this car's existence had been heard, but they were never substantiated, until now.

I present to you, Rock the Mullet: the dream, the car

Weird Things I Kinda Want (and You Should, Too)


F r i d a y , D e c e m b e r 2 6 , 2 0 0 8


Porsche Sled
With all the winter weather going on across the United States right now, especially here in Portland, where we have seen the most snow for December EVER, I decided to keep this in the winter theme. So I am presenting to you my two favorite sleds EVER. The first is the sled you see above, the Porsche sled. Yes, the same Porsche that makes such great cars as the 911, Cayman, Boxster, Cayenne, and the soon to come Panamera. The sled is Uber-slick and stylish. It has a great design which looks very classy and is functional. The legs fold up allowing you to stow it in your Cayenne with no trouble at all. It can be yours for $490. I would love to try this out.

But, probably not as much as I would love to try out this next mode of snowy transportation.

The Slegoon




This thing looks fast, fun, and safe. This would probably be enough to get me out to Mt. Hood as much as I should be going. You wouldn't even have to worry about running into anything with that roll cage around you. The roll cage also acts as extra runners so you can keep flying down the hill even if you get flipped upside down. When most people would be stopped or flailing around, you are still shredding the slopes. Just look at that racing bucket seat. Everything seems fast on this baby.

I wasn't sure where Lil' Jon had run off to but now I know. Honestly the video is very funny, a little disturbing and leaves you a little hungry by the end of it.

Cedric Delsaux The Photographers Photographs

S a t u r d a y , S e p t e m b e r 2 0 , 2 0 0 8
I came across these pics about a month ago. This guy Cedric Delsaux is an amazing photographer but even wiser with the Computer editing. Enjoy the Star Wars pics that seem to be very popular. While those are what got me at first it was his landscapes and other pictures that really pulled me in.
