Finally- we get our own month!

Check out: "August Will Now and Forever Be 'Geek History Month'" - www.asylum.com

http://www.asylum.com/2010/07/28/geek-awards-geek-history-month/?icid=asylum-iphone-url


Surely you've heard of Black History Month, Women's History Month and National Hispanic Heritage Month. But did you know that there is another group of proud Americans who have long suffered from prejudice and stereotyping and that still don't have their very own commemorative month?



We're talking about geeks, who have contributed so much to society, while being so misunderstood. Yet for some strange reason, nobody has ever thought to declare a "Geek History Month."



That is until today. For, by decree of Asylum, August will be Geek History Month.



Why August? For starters, Aug. 6 was the day the first Web page was launched. And, as August rolls on, this Web page (the one you're on now) will be providing a steady stream of posts on great moments in geek history.



Then, on Aug. 18, our Aol mothership will present its first annual Geek Awards in Los Angeles, featuring celebrities who aren't afraid to embrace their more technical side.



So please, join us as we spend August geeking out on geek history.

"This is the coolest thing I have ever seen."

I loved this show when it was on-

'Beavis and Butt-head" -- the show that celebrated the slacker way of life and helped make MTV into a network that did more than just play music videos -- is coming back.

The move to resurrect the hugely popular 1990s animated anti-heroes has been rumored for several days. But yesterday, sources at MTV confirmed that a new batch of "Beavis and Butt-head" episodes are in the works.

Article also mentions-

The return of "Beavis and Butt-head" will be a backdoor( HUH..HUH you said backdoor) means for MTV to return to showing music videos -- something the network was founded upon but abandoned in the last decade to make room for popular reality shows like "Laguna Beach," "The Hills" and "Jersey Shore."


"Beavis and Butt-head," which premiered in 1993, began as an animated short called "Frog Baseball," which aired on MTV's "Liquid Television."


The basic plotline revolved around two shorts-wearing, spectacularly immature teenage pals whose banter was delivered against the backbeat of their constant idiotic laughter.

Some folks used to say about this- "they're sooo stupid!" 

THAT'S THE POINT!

Throughout history- the things that make us laugh the most are "idiots" doing dumb stuff.

I am looking forward to the return of Beavis and Butthead!

Sure, "Star Wars" is the most obsessed-over movie of all time. There are, however, still some fascinating bits of trivia that have escaped the attention of all but the most hardcore fans.



Being the brainchild of notoriously egocentric George Lucas, the series is chock-full of hidden gems of knowledge and bits of Lucas's personal life.

Yep-I once had COWS in my front yard- True Story!

Last weekend- I was showing the House and yard to a friend and was reminded of the time when I had COWS in the front yard.

TRUE STORY- One night in May of 2009 Krissy came running the bedroom and told me- "Honey, there is a cow in the front yard!" Well I of course said- "WHAT?" and went and looked- sure enough- there was a COW- about 8 of the actually.

I of course grabbed the camera and shot some pictures- knowing no one would believe me without them. The COWS feasted on some of our folliage and left behind a few "presents".

COWS

Krissy called the Police and they of course did not believe her at first but a few minutes later called back. Seems the Farmer that lost the calls had called them asking if anyone had reported seeing them.

Krissy- while talking to the dispatcher- saw them driving in the neighborhood. She agreed to go meet them and help corral the COWS.

My country girl!

In the end it became a fun story to share from time to time. Of course Nora slept throught the whole thing.

Pack it up and ship it back Kids! Prince says “The Internet’s completely over,”

I think The Purple One is really living "in Prince world".

Not only is the internet over but he went on to say- “The Internet’s like MTV,” Prince concludes. “At one time, MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good.”

Last time I checked- MILLIONS of people have devices that connect to the internet.

Going by that logic- I guess driving cars is "completely over" too!

My Smoochie- Nora to her Mother- has a new obsession.   It used to be Caillou-

He was a little whiney but tolerable.

IT' S SOOOO ANNOYING!!!  all the yelling and general stupidness- (yes that's a word in my world)

One thing is kind of entertaining- when they are on their adventure there is always a part where they have to watch out for  Swiper the Fox!

                    He likes to "swipe" things and keep them.
They are able to foil him by saying loud three times- SWIPER, NO SWIPING!
then he stops and exclaims- "OOHH MAN!!!  and walks away.

I wish that worked on other things.  Wouldn't it be great to just yell at the gabby annoying person at the office-

ANNNOY-ER NO ANNOYING!

ANNNOY-ER NO ANNOYING!

and then they just said-  "OOHH MAN!!! - and went away.

Rescue Me is back- bask in the awesomeness!

http://www.popeater.com/2010/06/29/top-rescue-me-moments/?icid=popeater-iphone-url

For the last six years, FX's 'Rescue Me' has performed one of the most
compelling high-wire acts in television history, expertly mixing high
drama with gut-busting comedy, often in the same scene. And at the
center of it all, of course, has been Denis Leary, whose portrayal of
a New York fireman dealing with personal demons has turned Tommy Gavin
into one of the most memorable characters ever to grace the small
screen.

Yet some of you still might not understand what all the 'Rescue Me'
hype is about. Well, don't worry -- that's what we're here for. In
order to prepare you for the penultimate season of 'Rescue Me,'
premiering tonight, we've put together a list of some of the most
memorable moments in 'Rescue Me' history. Because it's time to stop
talking about how cool the show is and start watching the proof.

o. Eight Fingers of Whiskey. Perhaps no clip encapsulates the paradox
of both Tommy as a character and 'Rescue Me' as a show than this soul-
bearing monologue, which Tommy delivers to a pub full of skeptical bar
patrons, when asked to prove his membership in the FDNY.

o. Sensitivity Training. Any number of shows, perhaps most famously
'The Office,' have spun comedic gold from the universally dreaded
"sensitivity training." But most of those shows are on network
television. Here, the gang from 'Rescue Me' shows how it's done, cable-
style.

o. The Wheelchair. Picture it: You're on a fire call -- there's heavy
damage to the building and residents are trapped several floors up.
Only one problem: the guy you're sent to rescue can only get around in
a giant, robotic wheelchair. What do you do? Here's a tip: don't stand
around laughing at him because, apparently, that's not really going to
help anything.

o. The Conversation. What do fathers and sons really mean when they
shoot the breeze about sports and television? Tommy and his dad give
an insightful look at the subtext present within every bit of male
bonding.

o. The Game. When Tommy suspects that his ex-wife is considering
moving away with her new boyfriend -- and taking their children with
her -- he comes up with a simple plan to find the truth: bribe his
kids into telling him all the secrets of her relationship. Note --
this useful bit of parenting advice is not considered standard by most
trained professionals.

o. The Perfect Date. In this classic clip, we learn Tommy's idea of
the perfect date: his lady cooking him a big steak while wearing
something skimpy, followed by some post-dinner acrobatics on the
dining room table. And if you happen to be as forceful and charismatic
as Denis Leary, well, you might get away with this. But we really
don't recommend trying it for your next date night.

ok- proof that people need to work on their "Zombie Plan"

I am in the "green" zone on this. That Means- I'm Awesome and will survive when the Zombies attack.

 Sad that SOO MANY are in the "red".

BTW- being the "red" means when- not if- when the "Zombies" attack- as the creepy old man in Poltergiest 2 said-

"YOU'RE ALL GONNA DIE!"

Makes you wanna work on the Zombie Plan doesn't it.

I love Mr. Steve Martin

Click on the title to go and read the actual concert Rider from Steve martin when he performs with his blue grass band.

Artists have been notorious for asking for odd and unusual items from concert venues- bowl of ONLY green M&M's, Giant Baby Bottle, or Barrell of Monkey's. 

This one is AWESOME!  Steve's requests are "creative" to say the least.

A couple of choices favs-

* 24 area dancers costumed as Scientists Just for fun

* Golf Cart must be available to transport Steve and the Steep Canyon Rnagers from the dressing room area to the stage. If distance is less than 30 feet, Steve and the Steep Canyon Rnagers will do a couple of laps around the venue prior to the show so, it doesn't go to waste.

I WANT ONE!!!

http://www.asylum.com/2010/06/16/scientists-to-study-black-sabbath-ozzy-osbournes-genome/?icid=asylum-iphone-url


Our happy hour fact to amaze your drinking buddies with.



Ozzy Osbourne's genome will be sequenced, in hopes that scientists can figure out how the notoriously self-destructive rocker is still alive.



"Sequencing and analyzing individuals with extreme medical histories provides the greatest potential scientific value," Nathan Pearson, director of research at Knome, a leading gene-sequencing company, told the U.K. newspaper the Daily Mail.



Although the 61-year-old Osbourne has been sober for eight years, he spent the bulk of his life consuming legendary amounts of alcohol and hard drugs, as well as engaging in other high-risk activities.



The bat community will be keeping its webbed fingers crossed in hopes Knome won't conclude that Ozzy's stunning longevity can be attributed to his unique diet of their heads.

So does this mean The Pope hates Illinois Nazis too?

Vatican calls ‘Blues Brothers’ a ‘Catholic classic’



Comedy joins ‘The Passion of The Christ’ among recommended films
 
By Eric J. Lyman
Hollywood Reporter  

In the story, Jake and Elwood — played by John Belushi, right, and Dan Aykroyd, respectively — embark on an unlikely road trip featuring concerts, car chases, clashes with the police and neo-Nazi groups, all, ostensibly, to raise money for the church-run orphanage where they grew up
 

TAORMINA, Sicily — When Jake and Elwood Blues, the protagonists in John Landis' cult classic “The Blues Brothers,” claimed they were on a mission from God, the Catholic Church apparently took them at their word.
On the 30th anniversary of the film's release, “L'Osservatore Romano,” the Vatican's official newspaper, called the film a “Catholic classic” and said it should be recommended viewing for Catholics everywhere.
The film is based on a skit from “Saturday Night Live.” In the story, Jake and Elwood — played by John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, respectively — embark on an unlikely road trip featuring concerts, car chases, clashes with the police and neo-Nazi groups, and attempts at revenge from a spurned lover, all, ostensibly, to raise money for the church-run orphanage where they grew up.
But aside from a brief appearance from Kathleen Freeman as a wrist-slapping nun referred to as “The Penguin” and the brothers' periodic claim that they were on a mission from God, spirituality does not play a significant role in the film.
In addition to Belushi and Aykroyd, the film featured an all-star cast including musicians James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin, John Lee Hooker, and Chaka Khan, in addition to noted actors John Candy, Carrie Fisher, Charles Napier, and Henry Gibson, and cameo roles for Frank Oz, Steven Spielberg, Landis, Mr. T, and Paul Reubens.
With the recommendation, “The Blues Brothers” joins the list of dozens of films recommended by Catholic authorities that includes Cecil B. DeMille's “The Ten Commandments,” “Jesus of Nazareth” from Franco Zeffirelli, Mel Gibson's “The Passion of The Christ,” Victor Flemming's “Joan of Arc,” and “It's a Wonderful Life” from Frank Capra.

Was there possibly "cahoots"

Was watching Back to the Future 2 today.




I noticed something- when the delorean takes off in "hover mode", it sounds suspiciously like



The Millenium Falcon!

Since Spielberg produced BTTF- and he is buddies with George (Star Wars) Lucas- ya think there was "cahoots" and GL let SS borrow the sound?

That will haunt my dreams.

http://www.asylum.com/2010/06/08/is-210-pound-burger-new-worlds-biggest/?icid=asylum-iphone-url


We have a rule at Asylum, a fairly simple and medically sound one: Do not eat anything heavier than our own body weight.



Which will keep us from indulging in this 210-pound burger, made from 178 pounds of ground beef, 120 eggs, 16 tomatoes, 120 cheese slices, 4 pounds of lettuce and 46 pounds of bread. It's then topped off with a pound of barbecue sauce.



Bosses at Ambrosia on the Spot in Sydney, Australia, created the burger in a bid to get into the Guinness Book of Records. They say it took months of planning and over 12 hours to cook.



Evidence of the burger -- which could feed 100 -- has now been sent to Guinness World Records offices and is expected to take the title from a 185-pound burger made in the U.S. However, we're wondering whatever happened to the 590-pounder grilled up by barbecue chef Ted Reader in Canada last month.



Keep reading to see footage of the colossal gut-buster and if any professionals in the field of giant-burger judging are reading this, please clear up our confusion in the comments.
