Did you tell people your mobile number? ;D And about people stopping talking to you to answer their phone, I think it makes sense. I mean, they can tell you to wait for a few seconds while they answer their phone but they can't tell the person calling to wait. The person calling will think that your friend doesn't even care enough to answer the phone when they ring. If you were the one calling and they didn't answer because they were talking to somebody else, wouldn't you be a bit insulted too? ;D

Musical Guest: Normand L’Amour
So, apparently I’m taking requests now… bah, requests I tell ya- I’ll save that for next time…
Anyhow, as for Normand L’Amour… you know what, I actually like him. His expressive, poetic lyrics and ground-breaking instrumental style is really changing the face of music. Just because you can’t understand Gibberish, that doesn’t change how important his music is. He’s singing about some real hardships in his life, some depressing times he’s overcome. It is some of the saddest stuff I’ve ever heard, but also renews your faith in the human spirit.
Here’s what the critics have to say:
“It's insane...” – Rolling Stone Magazine
“It makes me want to die.” – Blender
"Bob Dylan was a true wordsmith, the revolutionary lyricist of his time. Today, Normand L’Amour proves to be just as revolutionary." – Uncut Magazine
See. Normand L’Amour rocks!
(Hoo-sha!)

Total Request Live Requests, huh? You think you can just jump into the middle of my rants and ask me what I think about this or that? I don’t care if someone put up a web page of some ancient dude singing gibbly. What? You see an old coot babbling nonsense and you immediately think of Avenger? How the heck am I supposed to take that? Cause personally, I take it as an insult. Jerk. Plus, what makes you think I have time to talk about all the crazy stuff going on in your life? I have plenty of material to work from over here. Cat urine. Shower curtains. Rabid armadillos. I’m completely swamped as it is. So, please, no more requests! (If you have a rant request, please send it via PM to "Avenger" care of RS.net boards. Make sure to include “Random Much?” in the subject line.)

In Memoriam: Steve Irwin A little change in format today. Seemed like a bit of a solemn day around the board what with the passing of the Crocodile Hunter, so I thought I would pay him a bit of a tribute. I’m probably not the best person to talk about Steve Irwin, the man himself. I wasn’t really a fan. I saw his show a few times here and there. But, I did enjoy his antics. I thought he had a great voice (“Crikey” is a catchphrase that will live on forever) and an awesome enthusiasm in everything he did. And he seemed to me a very genuine and humble human being. But, as I said, there are people that knew him far better than I did. I would much rather talk about what he accomplished. “Steve made his name in the Queensland government's rogue crocodile relocation program, where he was one of the most successful participants in this government-sponsored program, safely catching and relocating dozens of troublesome crocodiles without harm to them (or him, for the most part).” You can read more at Animal Planet’s website. But this was the beginning of Steve Irwin’s work in wildlife preservation. He was extremely hands on and enthusiastic in his work with wild animals. And I think that enthusiasm helped to show how much he cared about the animals. When it came to nature, he was “filled with childlike wonder.” And that’s a great mindset to come from when you want to convince other people that what you are doing and what you believe in is important. And I know many people will remember that about him, and remember the importance of his conservation causes. And, of course, he helped to set up many foundations to help with these causes: Wildlife Warriors WorldwideInternational Crocodile RescueLyn Irwin Memorial FundThat last page has a touching letter that Steve wrote about his mother’s passing, and perhaps it can help the people who are now feeling the pain of his death. He really did accomplish a lot in his life, even if it may have been cut far shorter than it should have been. A hit television series, international fame, protection of endangered species, and a loving family. I don’t think anyone could ask for more. And I know he has inspired at least one other person to follow in his footsteps, and to love and care for nature. I can only hope she stays as passionate as he did… “I've adopted your strength, your passion and enthusiasm, your dedication and commitment, and will honour your presence by continuing to push forward as hard and fast as I possibly can, to ensure the survival of our precious wildlife, the wilderness, and in essence, the human race. For without fresh water, trees, animals, and ecosystems, the world we know would not support human life; it would be an ugly, awful place.” Steve Irwin1962-2006

Well said.
If I had a drink at my side, I would raise it and say, "To Steve Irwin."

My Brother and Me 1
Avenger: my girlfriend wasn't smuggling cocaine. Avenger: she was smuggling babies. Brother: she was smuggling crack-addicted babies. Avenger: some, yes. Avenger: some were just addicted to weed. Avenger: those are the gateway babies. Brother: aye. Brother: gotta watch out for the gateway babies. Brother: that's what got you that fancy computer. Avenger: yeah. . . well. . . it's on its last legs. Brother: its last baby legs... Avenger: it's time for an abortion up in this hizouse. Avenger: "Look Marge, Maggie lost her baby legs." Avenger: or, infanticide. Brother: I have a fantasy about infanticide... Brother: no, I don't. Avenger: good. Avenger: cause I was going to say. . . Avenger: "Would you like some of this baby leg?" Brother: I'm a torso man myself. Avenger: but, now that means more baby leg for me. Avenger: where's Michael Ian Black right now. Cause I'll tell him right now, I eat baby. Brother: I think baby's generally enjoy the digestion process. Avenger: And possibly babies. Brother: possibly... but you were emphasizing the singular baby... so. Avenger: so nothing. Avenger: You think the baby is generally enjoy the digestion process? Or is the baby supposed to be possesive of the generally? Brother: no... I misspelled General Lee. Brother: you see. Brother: now it makes sense. Avenger: well, you need to at least add an s to enjoy. Then I completely understand that the baby's hillbilly car likes being digested.

Our Feature Presentation: Silent Hill Actually, I’m not here to talk about the game today. I’m here to talk about the movie. And I’m not even here to talk about how I liked the movie, although I liked it a lot. It really matched the atmosphere of the games. And even though they had to change the story around a bit, thematically I think it worked better the way they did it. Anyways, I want to talk about the terrible DVD release a couple weeks ago. Transfer is fine and whatever. And there’s a couple cool “Making of” featurettes. But that’s it! No commentary?! This is one of those movies that needs, no, begs for a commentary track. I mean, there’s stuff when you’re watching that you wanna know, WTF? A nice commentary track would have answered some… um… unanswered questions. And would have been a nice view into the director’s and writer’s mind about why they chose to do certain things with the story. And with the totally whacked out story that is Silent Hill, that is utterly important. Furthermore, the original cut of the movie was 3 ½ hours. That’s right. 3 ½ HOURS! I may be in the minority… but I want that cut! I would love me over 3 hours of Silent Hill creepy goodness. And I was really hoping there would be some sort of “Collector’s Edition” DVD that would include this original cut. (As well as the commentary track(s) mentioned above.) Unfortunately, the DVD that did come out is only slightly above “bare bones.” It is highly disappointing, especially at the price of $30. Thus, I have been torn between not wanting to purchase this substandard DVD, but at the same time wanting to support the movie (so I can hopefully get a sequel). Perhaps they will release a Collector’s Edition in the future… Samael, hear my prayers…

The Man, the Myth, the Legend: Ashley Benlove Ah… what can anyone say about Ashley Benlove. She’s sweet, well respected, and loves herself some erotica. And there are probably few people who like to glomp as much as her… Alright, enough of that sweet crap. I’ve got the real low down on the notorious ABL: 1. Was once married to Marilyn Monroe.Yes! It’s true! Ashley once got her hands on a time machine and traveled back in time. She changed her name to Joe DiMaggio (basing her last name on one of her favorite voice actors) and went undercover as a professional baseball player. Unfortunately, it turned out Ashley was a natural at the sport, and became incredibly famous in a short amount of time. This led to her eventually meeting Marilyn, and one of the most famous celebrity couples in history. However, their marriage was troubled, and when they finally split, Ashley was so devastated she could no longer stay in the 1950s. She found some bum to replace her and quickly returned to the 21st century. 2. Uncredited creator of the Macarena.Yes, Ashley Benlove is responsible for one of the most heinous dance crazes of all time. Based on her reaction to meeting J.K. Rowling, Bob Schooley, and Mark McCorkle, while they were all having tea on the moon. 3. Eats babies!But who doesn’t. Plus… what’s with this “Interesting” all the time? Huh? What is that? I mean, come on Ashley, give me something to work with! Is it interesting, like, “Hmm… I’ve never thought of that before.” Or interesting like, “I’m being sarcastic, and you’re freakin’ me out!” Tell me something, Ashley… anything! Aaaarrrgghhhh! ( )

What the flip was that? I laughed out loud, I don't know why I thought it was so funny. By the way, Marilyn was hot, but I would never marry her. And I suck at baseball.

Stay Tuned for: Season Premieres
The Simpsons: The epic 18th season begins tonight! Yeah… so it hasn’t really been that great since about Season 12. Still, I’ll support them until 20. That’s a nice number to hit. Also, my cousin wrote tonight’s episode. So watch and laugh. Laugh, darn you!
American Dad: I still think this is a really great show. Some people say, “Look at Seth McFarlane rip himself off.” I say, “Conservatives and liberals are funny.”
Family Guy: There are drawn out battles against poultry and extravagant musical numbers. How can you not watch this show!?
War at Home: The less said about this show, the better. Don’t watch this. After Family Guy, run right back here and start posting.
I’ll be waiting…
