I've often wondered about women who have "tramp stamps" basically every woman who raised from about 1975 - 1981 has a tramp stamp. Back then, when I was out at the bars, we'd make the joke about the human pin striping. Use the word tramp stamp. Outside of percentage of women who had them, most of the women that did have them, to traditional, read not mine, standard of being a tramp.
Often I wondered, about in the future, who will time look on these tattoos? Without proper up keep, these tattoos will fade and look like shit. My grandfather has a tattoo on his forearm when he was in the army back in Korea, never had it touched up again. It looks like an odd birthmark. So what will happen in 30 - 40 years when these declarations of being "juicy" or "hot" begin to fade and slump as the skin that holds these statements begin to sag and ink begins to fade.
What will people in the next few generation say about these and other tattoos? Will they reject them outright like people did mustaches?
Who knows?
Enjoy the clip of SNK being funny.

The best sketchbook known to man, the kiss sketchbook. It became even better when dirty comic people started to drawn in it.

June 21st is Happy Go Skateboarding Day. It wasn't a good day in Arkansas.
Under Hot Springs Ordinances, it's a ticket, not a take down like in the video. Title 4, Page 23/24(30/31 on the PDF).

Say It Backwards, if you don't know Tommy's blog, is about Superman. Past, Present and past. He posted about the aborted Superman efforts before Singer took over and made Superman a man who had a one night stand to come back five years later to find out Lois has tricked another man into thinking that she had his kid.
If you've read anything about Superman Returns, you'll find that it's a work of art compared to the shit ideas that had come before. A. WORK. OF. ART.
Anyways, here's the link to the entry and as always, you should check up on Say It Backwards on a daily basis, because what Tommy post,is gold. Even if you don't like the Man of Steel or anyone related to him.

Pearl, Will Farrel's landlord is back, as a cop. Will is the guy who she's trying to get a confessional out of for the crimes that he committed. Sadly, this is her final performance.

Kupek is the alter ego of madman, Bryan Lee O'Malley. Bryan Lee Who? Well for the bad people out there, Bryan Lee O'Malley is the writer/artist of Scott Pilgrim.
O'Malley has recently been releasing some of his older work online for us all to listen to at out leisure. I hate to really admit to this, but his work is good. Good, good. Not just good because it's from a comic guy. Good as in this shit should reach a much wider audience.
Because O'Malley has been nice enough to put Kupek's work online, you should purchase his complete works and pre-order Scott Pilgrim vol.4. Don't listen to Amazon, it ships in August.

GIGANTOR is space age robot! GIGAAAAANNNNNTOOORR!
There is going to be a Gigantor memorial erected in Japan. An 18 meter statute. For the people who don't know what a meter is, it's roughly three feet and for those people who don't know what math is, that would make this statue roughly fifty-four feet tall.
That's awesome.

And really, when you speak of geeks, you speak of Hot Pockets. Jim Gaffigan provides the comedy, Naruto and cast brings to acting.

Horror movie mogul Wes Craven is suing funnyman Pauly Shore over a landslide at his Hollywood home. The Nightmare On Elm Street filmmaker claims Shore failed to maintain his garden, which backs onto Craven's property, and the Encino Man star's inactivity led to a landslide. In papers filed in Los Angeles on Wednesday, and obtained by Tmz.com, Craven states, "water from the Shore Property intruded and infiltrated the Craven Property causing a slope failure/landslide." Craven claims the neighborhood disaster took place last December, adding he "will continue to suffer severe emotional distress and anxiety." The director is seeking unspecified damages.

It seems like Yahoo and MySpace will merge soon. Now this is interesting because at this point in time, Yahoo has some of the best design of the portals, it's inversely well designed to MySpace's designs. With Yahoo's record of censorship, I wonder what will happen with MySpace posters...

I have to admit, I was getting bored watching this video clip. It's a clip that needs to build up before you get the pay off, but then when it happens. You want to beat the crap out of the dad holding the camera.

Jamie Hewitt, if you're reading the Lint Trap, you've come across his work. He did drew Tank Girl Originally, as well as designed the Gorillaz, which in turn won him designer of the year in the UK. So he's been doing something else recently. He's been designing a toy for people. A special adult toy.
It rhymes with vibrator.

Yeah, um OK. For some odd reason, I don't really see this happening in real life.

Konami Corp. the people who brought us all those fun shotting games for our Nintendos when were small children, is bring skin care tips to the masses of the new crop of gamers. The new gamers, people who aren't guys and between the ages of 10 & 35, are starting to flock to the Nintendo for their unique games that aren't the traditional sport of shoot 'em up games.
Konami Corp. has designed a game that allows you to input weight and other factors to keep your skin well and fit. Such an odd thing to see in this lifetime.

The future of the automotive industry is going to be electric. Fossil fuels are going to run out. Right now, really smart people are figuring out how to make city congestion thing of the past with smaller cars and better transportation. Wired has a good article about this new outbreak of electric cars being marketed and sold.

I'm a Right Said Fred fan. There I said it. I get an update every so often from the band. Here was the latest update a while back. It's a story of tolerance, Russian Nazis, police, fightin' and police beatin' up people.
As we know alot of you have seen us on the news and in the press being beaten and attacked by Neo-Nazis in Moscow[EDIT: I never even knew this happened and I'm addicted to news wires and CNN]. We thought we should write a few lines to add our perspective to these bizarre events.We flew into Moscow on Saturday May 26th for a show that evening.After we had checked into our hotel Richard and i had dinner and people watched in Red Square while the sun slowly set.We were amazed by how many gay couples we saw holding hands and openly expressing their sexuality[EDIT: Prostitution is legal in Russia].Wow we thought "Moscow's changed"..........................
The following morning we had arranged to have lunch with the local promoter, his wife and their 7 year old daughter.We were going to have lunch in Red Square but it was closed due to a demonstration.There were a large amount of Police and soldiers on the street but this is Russia so we thought nothing of it.At this point the promoter received a phone call from friends of his who were at a "Civil Liberties/Freedom of speech" rally and they invited us down.Richard and i weren't aware this was a Gay Pride demo and that it had been denied a licence by the Moscow authorities. We aren't big on public rallies particularly illegal ones and prefer to show our support for "sexual tolerance" etc etc in other ways. However we were assured that it seemed safe and the main purpose of this demo was to hand in a petition to the Mayor and that Tatu (a popular Russian girl group) were also performing so we felt ok about going along.
When we arrived it was a very small affair with a massive police presence and alot of international press,the Neo-Nazis were singing and doing interviews.The moment Richard and i left our vehicle the international press recognised us and immediately all the attention went from the Neo-Nazis to us.......oh joy!

Every so often, there are people that deserve the Dumbshit Award for being complete and total asses. Congratulations Reagan National Airport TSA(RNATSA), you have been given the Dumbshit Award for the month of June.
At RNA, the TSA decided that the world would come to an end if a woman's 19 month old sippy cup gets on to an airplane. So not only do they pry it from the small child, which causes the kid to scream, the pull the mom out of line, with escorts in tow away from the child, still screaming, to harass her for a sippy cup full of water.
A Dumbshit Award is not a light thing to receive it means that you've done especially well in doing something so backwards in face of logic that even can be seen as dumb from any perspective other than your own.
RNATSA, enjoy your Dumbshit Award for the month of June.
"I demanded to speak to a TSA [Transportation Security Administration] supervisor who asked me if the water in the sippy cup was 'nursery water or other bottled water.' I explained that the sippy cup water was filtered tap water. The sippy cup was seized as my son was pointing and crying for his cup. I asked if I could drink the water to get the cup back, and was advised that I would have to leave security and come back through with an empty cup in order to retain the cup. As I was escorted out of security by TSA and a police officer, I unscrewed the cup to drink the water, which accidentally spilled because I was so upset with the situation."At this point, I was detained against my will by the police officer and threatened to be arrested for endangering other passengers with the spilled 3 to 4 ounces of water. I was ordered to clean the water, so I got on my hands and knees while my son sat in his stroller with no shoes on since they were also screened and I had no time to put them back on his feet. I asked to call back my fiancé, who I could still see from afar, waiting for us to clear security, to watch my son while I was being detained, and the officer threatened to arrest me if I moved. So I yelled past security to get the attention of my fiancé.

When you hear about people and the weird influences that they have on the world, you think to yourself that outside some super rich douche, that it's all an urban legend, unless you live in BFE, the it's just a damn legend. First one I heard about was the Mercedes that was damaged in the remake of Night of the Living Dead, where someone sent the footage of the car wrapping around the tree and he got a new BENZ. Wow, that's an urban legend, except it was the director who was telling us the story about his friend.
And now to add to that pantheon of people, Warren Ellis and his 100 cans of Red Bull.

You know there are awards for people that do stupid things. You don't believe me that there are rewards set in place for people who do stupid things? OK, the how do you explain Jackass, XML Football and half of the output by Hollywood?
You don't do you?
Well there is another reward for jackassery, and that reward is our amusement.
All the while I'm looking at this little device measuring about 5" long, less than 3/4 inch in circumference, (pretty cute really and loaded with two itsy, bitsy triple-A batteries) thinking to myself, "No possible waaay!"What happened next is almost beyond description, but I'll do my best.....I'm sitting there alone, Gracie[the cat] looking on with her head cocked to one side as if to say, "Don't do it Master." Reasoning that a one-second burst from such a tiny little ole thing couldn't hurt all that bad....I decided to give myself a one-second burst just for the heck of it. I touched the prongs to my naked thigh, pushed the button, and ...HOLY MOTHER ..WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION...@!@$$!%!@*!!!

When you have to throw a 90lbs. kid off stage to feel big about yourself, you have some issues. Lots of issues. Almost the same issues that RKelly has. Maybe even the same issues. Especially when you throw this kid into the crowd of people that are screaming for you.
