Making fun of Kanye West

Rabbi Hammer wrote a blog about Kanye West's weird behaviour during this year's MTV music awards. It was already known Kanye had an ego the size of Australia, but most of us figured he had learned his lesson after South Park ridiculed him in its awesome "Fishsticks" episode. (Check out the entire episode at South Park Studios) After the episode aired, Kanye even left an official statement on his website in which he acknowledged his ego had become way too big. Apparently it hadn't stopped growing.

Whether you hate him or love him, one thing is certain: it makes for great entertainment! Just google Kanye West in google images and you'll know what I mean. Numerous photoshopped images have turned up in which Kanye interrupts everyone from Martin Luther King to little Anne Frank.

Poor little Jewish Anne Frank. While hiding from the nazis in a house in Amsterdam she wrote her legendary diary. But apparently Kanye has a beef:



Joseph Fritzl was a pedophile who had built an underground home where his daughter and her children lived. Fritzl frequently raped his daughter. The children she gave birth to are his.

A second chance at a life of crime

Mobster Vincent "Vinny Ocean" Palermo lived a long life of crime on the streets of New York and New Jersey. He would become the Acting Boss of the DeCavalcante Crime Family, and order men to be extorted, hurt, and murdered.

After being arrested by the FBI, he decided to become a cooperating witness and receive a get-out-of-jail-free-card. But surprise surprise, "Vinny Ocean" may have received a new identity and new home, he is nevertheless still up to his old tricks.

Read about it here.

why kanye west is a piece of shit

Please go here for the entire article.

I didn't watch the awards, as I think the mtv video awards are garbage (besides i didn't know they still played videos). I'm also not a Taylor Swift fan, but the bottom line is this just cemented Kanye's legacy as a piece of shit. This isn't the first time that he went on a rant at a event. The bottom line is, his ego is needed to be popped, or someone should just break his reconstructed jaw. After his first rant about not winning an award, I vowed never to buy any of his work. This just makes feel the same, and now if i ever hear his stuff on the radio i'll just switch to something else.

It's ashame that someone who does have talent can act like a 3 year old. I think lady karma will have him in her sights very soon, and it couldn't happen to a nicer guy.

I do have to applaud beyonce for bringing taylor back out to have her moment.

High school football stars saves 22 lives.

Yesterday morning started off like any other school day for Kaleb Eulls, his 3 younger sisters, and 18 others until a young female student who had gotten on the bus pulled out a hand gun and started pointing it other students and demanding the bus driver to pull over. Kaleb had been passed out at the back of the bus listening to his mp3 player, when one of his sisters woke him and told him what was going on.

Kaleb wasted no time in jumping into action. Once the bus pulled over he open the emergency door to let the kids out and then focused on trying to calm the female student down. When she made the mistake of looking out a window, he tackled her and got the gun away from her.

Kaleb who is a 6'4" 255 lbs star football player said, that he wanted her to focus on him and not the other kids, and also made a statement to the police saying if she was gonna shoot anyone it was gonna be me. His selfless act saved those 22 students, and the bus driver from what good have been a horrible fate.

The female assailant was arrested on 22 counts of attempted aggravated assault, 22 counts of kidnapping and one count of possession of a firearm on school property. She was taken to the county juvenile detention facility.

CFL team says it’s not signing Pacman Jones

This past week there had been talk of Adam "Pacman" Jones would be starting his career over in the Canadian Football League this fall. He was the former 1st round draft pick of the Tennessee Titans, and has been suspended twice from the NFL and has been arrested 12 times. This past off season, Dallas let him go as well.

This couldn't happen to a more undeserving waste of space, and I'm really happy that the Canadian team in question came to their senses and decided NOT to bring him in. He doesn't deserve the chance to earn millions as he has shown time and time again that he is more concerned about living the life of a thug then a decent member of society.

Maybe we'll have the pleasure of walking into a Burger King and see him flipping whoppers =)

How to Lose $3 Million in Six Years

by Mike Krumboltz

15 hours ago

Stop us if this sounds familiar: A very lucky person wins the lottery and expects life to change for the better, but instead, things go horribly wrong. It's a story as old as the hills, but each time it happens, it causes a huge commotion in Search. The latest "victim" of sudden wealth is a young woman from the U.K. who won millions of bucks several years ago, only to lose the vast majority of it shortly thereafter.

Callie Rogers was just 16 when she won a whopping $3 million in the lottery. Six years later, she reports that she blew untold sums on drugs, partying, exotic cars, and breast implants. A staggering $730,000 went to designer clothes alone, Ms. Rogers explains in an article from AOL. Says Rogers: "I honestly wish I'd never won the lottery money — and knowing what I know now I should have just given it all back to them." She's currently left with around $32,000.

In these trying economic times, Ms. Rogers will likely find little sympathy. Still, it's worth noting that she's hardly the first big winner who wished she'd never bought a ticket. There is such a thing as the lottery curse: As mentioned in a previous Buzz Log, there are numerous cases of lotto winners getting divorced due to stress and losing everything from poor investments. A few have even died at the hands of greedy relatives. A 2007 article from ABC will fill you in on a few more examples.

Knowing she's not the first jackpot winner to suffer hardship won't make her life any easier. But perhaps Ms. Rogers can take some comfort from the fact that there are others out there with eerily similar stories: They won big then lost big, and often wish they'd never even played.

*i have 2 questions...1) how did a 16 y/o win the lottery when the minimum age is 18 to play any state lottery, and 2) where the hell were her parents? i would have made sure my child had that money in a the bank as soon as he/she won it. i would give them a lil bit to spend and enjoy, but i would have made sure that their future was secured. $3 million isn't much in todays world, but if it was invested right, it would last a long time.
IDIOT!

Mike "The Mouth" Matusow: Check-raising the devil

While I was watching the WSOP, I noticed Mike Matusow say that he had a copy of his new book for everyone at his table. I figured it was just another poker book about stratigies on hold em, but it turns out that its his autobiography. The book starts off of him talking about his addiction to the 5 card draw poker machines and his days of working in the family business. It then moves on to how he got his start in playing poker and how he became one of the best limit hold em players (as limit back in the early 90's was the most easiest game to find. no limit wasn't popular yet to have many tables or players playing it) to his first wsop bracelet in omaha, his drug abuse, battling depression, hadd and bi-polar, to being set up for a drug bust and doing 6 months in a county jail. Then coming out of jail to pick up where he left off.

I read the entire book in one day while i was on vacation last week. I couldn't put it down! This is a must read if you are a huge poker fan like myself. I have to admit that I have a new found source of respect for this man.

Noooo, no' my Engrish!! I'm so ronery nowww :(

Next year the Chinese city Shanghai will host the World Expo. This is a very prestigious event that will attract thousands of visitors from around the world. No wonder then that the Chinese want to make a good impression. That is why authorities have sent out teams of students to rid Shanghai of signs with misspelled and ungrammatical English. This type of English is known online as "Engrish" and is a source of major amusement for many people surfing the web. Check it out for yourself!

Blackwater is a private contractor straight out of the Bourne Trilogy

I am a huge fan of the Bourne Trilogy. In my humble opinion Jason Bourne kicks James Bond's ass any day of the week. For those of you that don't know: Jason Bourne is an American CIA agent/assassin who loses his memory after a hit gone wrong (for more go see the movies). He is part of what is labeled Operation Treadstone. This operation is very top top hush hush secret and has been created so the CIA could assassinate enemies of the US or its allies.

Yesterday the New York Times reported that the CIA had been involved in something similar to Operation Treadstone. The CIA had made plans to kill the leaders of Al Qaeda. But instead of using their own well trained CIA operatives they hired mercenaries who worked for the private contractor Blackwater. Blackwater has many former Navy Seals, Green Berets, etc amongst its ranks, ready to go in and do some damage, all the while being paid a salary men who fight for the US government can only dream of.

When Blackwater employees were involved in shootings that cost the lives of 17 Iraqi civilians, the company became a bit too hot to handle. It subsequently was kicked out of Iraq by its government, and the US did not sign any new contracts. But some contracts have not yet ended, and so it turns out that Blackwater is still involved in both Iraq and Afghanistan for a total of over $400 million. After all the bad publicity, Blackwater changed its name to make a fresh start. Ironically this is exactly what the bosses of Operation Treadstone did.

For those of you who want to know more about Blackwater, I highly recommend the book Blackwater by Jeremy Scahill. Scahill will be a guest of Bill Maher this coming Friday during his television show Real Time with Bill Maher on HBO.

Men and their 'precious'

Men love beer like women love their clothing. The following commercials show what happens when men decide to use a woman's touch:



And now: the REAL walk-in-fridge :D

American sports: Cheaters and thugs do prosper

American sports seems to be teaching kids that it is OK to cheat, and act like a thug. In baseball, you have guys using performance enhancing drugs, and all they get is a slap on the wrist 50 game suspension, but all their records still stand. Yet, one baseball icon is still banned for betting on baseball. Where is the logic and justice in that?

In football you have guys being sent to jail for dog fighting, and another guy is involved in shootings at strip clubs, but they get 2ND, 3RD, and 4Th chances. If the average Joe were convicted of these crimes, they wouldn't be able to find a job making $6 an hour. Yet, these guys get the chance to make millions all over again.

I think its time to bring these over paid bums back down to earth. Maybe go back to the old days, where you played for your next contract year after year. Those were the days when sports were pure, and the players played because of their love for the game. These sports figures today get paid millions even before they ever set foot on to a playing field, and the majority of them feel as though they deserve it all. What they forget is it's a privilege, not a right. They should be thankful for every fan, and every penny that they earn.

The signing of Mike Vick

Ok, by now i think the entire world has heard of the Philadelphia Eagles signing Mike Vick last Thursday. However, I'm already sick of hearing how the birds are now a superbowl bound team because of him. Let's break this down:
1. He is a average passing quarterback. While he played he has thrown 71 td's and 52 interceptions.
2. He averages a horrible 155.5 yards per game.
3. He hasn't taken a snap since the 2006 and is NOT in football shape.
4. This is still Mcnabb's team . Vick will be used in certain situations, but won't be in every down on offense.

Also, the birds O-line is decimated with injuries right now. With all the changes this off season, they won't have that same chemistry they have had over the past few years. In last weeks pre-season game against the Pat's, the o-line did a better job run blocking than pass blocking. If you think about it, that doesn't sound good since Big "Fat" Red is a pass happy coach. Their wide-outs didn't do much to impress me, and Mcnabb still had plenty of moments of his old self from the NFC champ game.

In my humble opinion, I don't think this team is any better then last year. Hopefully they can prove me wrong.

Chance of a LIFETIME

Kent Senter, a 55 year old father of 4, had a dream of one day playing in the main event at the WSOP. However, the cost of the buy-in and the cost of the travel expenses were too much as that money could be spent on things his family needed.

This past March his dreams were crushed when he learned when he was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, which is also known as Jim ValVano disease, a bone cancer that affects only 5-7 people out of 100,000. His prognosis was max a year.

One night Kent and his wife Patty were watching tv when a commercial came on for the WSOP. Kent got up and walked into the bathroom and cried. Hearing this, Patty knew why he was crying and decided to act. A week before the main event started Patty contacted Bluff magazine. IN turn Bluff talked to the online site: Pokerstars, and the two of them bought a seat for Kent. Pokerstars team members, Chris Moneymaker, Greg Raymer, and Joe Hachem all took time out to spend time with him.

While he made it thru day 1, his luck ended agasint Elky Grospellier on day2.

The poker world came together to make a dying man's dream come true. With all the talk about how bad poker is, and that it causes gambling issues, and the fight against the U.S. Fed govt to lift the ban,, acts of kindness like this usually go un-noticed.

*I found the article in the August 09 issue of Bluff. On newsstands now!*

Student from Mali slain in Southwest Philadelphia

A 22 year old student from Mali, which is located in western Africa was shot dead in an apparent failed robbery attempt as him and 3 friends sat on a bench in Southwest Philadelphia. It is believed the victim was shot because he couldn't understand what the robber wanted as there was a possible language barrier.

The United States is supposed to be a place where people come to better themselves, but end up getting caught in the act of senseless violence. Makes you wonder......

Brazilian schoolgirl serial killer

This blog title may attract some filthy sex offenders looking for a myspace url, but honestly guys: it's not that kind of story. A Brazilian seventeen-year-old girl has confessed to having murdered thirty men. All men were killed up close and personal (something women are true masters at) with a knife. The girl had been arrested on other charges and decided she might as well confess to the thirty murders to avoid being tried as an adult. She committed the murders "for money, revenge, and to bring justice".

Still interested in a cheap Brazilian hooker? Well you might want to know that you won't have to travel all the way to Brazil for a good "cuckoo" time. Manson family member Lynette "Squeaky" Fromme has recently been released from prison after serving 34 years for trying to kill then-President Gerald Ford. She's a bit old now, well sixty could be the new thirty, but that only means you are better equipped to deal with her murderous tendencies and general psycho behaviour. One tip though: Keep her away from knives at all time.

Damn hippies...there goes the neighborhood

When residents of Long Branch, New Jersey saw a suspicious man wearing a hood walking through their neighborhood and peering through the windows of a house, they did not hesitate and immediately called the police. Twenty-four-year-old officer Kristie Buble was on the scene within minutes to discover the bum that was still roaming the streets. Officer Buble asked the man for his name. In a rasp voice he answered his name was Bob Dylan and that he was looking at a new house he might buy. Buble had heard of a pot smoking anti-government activist by that name but was unsure if this was the same man because he failed to produce any identification. It wasn't until Dylan took her to his tour bus where he produced his ID that the officers believed that this hippie was of no immediate danger to the Long Branch community. After African Americans, hippies are arguably the most feared "new neighbors".

Welcome!

Prepare...
