Audio Story
Not having my video up on time is my fault because I’m retarded. I have an audio track recorded but I need the track trimmed down to about 45 seconds. I can not figure out how to upload a track to and edit it down to fit the story I’m trying to tell. I have the pictures to go with the story but just not the audio. I am trying to take 45 seconds of audio by the late standup comic Mitch Hedberg. I’m trying to attempt to something like Comedy Centrals Shorties Watchin’ Shorties but instead of using animation, I would use real pictures. Hopefully I can have the story up and running by class.

VIDEO
Ok, so I have been trying to make a video and I cannot figure out for the life of me how to down load content for said sites on our class home page. Don’t get me wrong, I found some dope shit, but I can’t get the song to up load (All the pretty girls go to the city by Spoon) to the site. I don’t want to remix one of the provide songs form the site, but it appears that I have not choice.
On a side note, I can’t make a humorous video (not to say that my shit is funny, but hay, I fucking try). So I hope you like what I’m attempting, and if you don’t well than I’m not gnna lose any sleep over your opinion (at least none that I will admit).

Tworn
It always blows my mind of how different northern california and southern california are. When i refuse to southern california I exclude LA for good reasons(it fucking sucks). it's the same state but two completely different vibes. Northern cali in my opinion is a little more fast paced and definitely MORE political, wear So-Cal is layed-back and physically fit. (I was at the beach in San Diego on sunday and i NEED to hit the gym). San Diego is in my opinion the best city in So-cal. You leave the country in 20 min, be in the desert in about 2 hours, Vegas in 5 hours, and god forbid be in LA in a time ranging form 2 hours to 5 due the wonderful traffic situations in LA. This is a city I you love to live in again, but not now. I had the realization that i might be just as much love with San Francisco as I am with San Diego. My plan was to finish school in SF and move back to SD but I don't know if I want to move form San Francisco now. Dam it getting older sucks, I need to make a shit load of money.
Things to do in San Diego:

Good bye Joey
If you have read the beginning of my blog you can see that I’m devoted Pittsburgh Steelers fan. For those of you who are not familiar with the Pittsburgh Steelers, if you were to look up the best football team EVER, well… the result would be the Pittsburgh Steelers. Anyways, my favorite player Joey Porter has been cut to make room for the salary cap (the total amount of money a team can spend on players). This happens often in the NFL, but MY favorite player for my team has never been released. I am an emotional train wreck. I can’t picture him playing for another team; it would be like seeing a member of my family raped!
Joey was the emotional leader and defensive co-captain of the Steelers defense and always played with passion. Joey Porter is so dedicated to playing football that back in 2003 he was shot in September, missed the first two weeks of the regular season, only to return a few weeks after being shot. Porter was by far the most outspoken player on the Steelers roster and possibly the NFL, known for talking shit before and after games and publicly criticizing the Bush administration. Joey talked the talk and walked and was named “Most feared player in the NFL” by Sports Illustrated magazine.
Joey is one of my favorite Steelers players of all time and next season will not be the same with out him, and to make matters worse, I now have to buy a new jersey. But if I could say something to Joey, this is what I would say. (I know this sounds gay)
Joey I will really miss you and hope you go on to do great things for other teams, as long as it’s not the Steelers. Good luck in the fee agent market and thank you for all the good times.

Oscars, and The Black Donnellys, and Hail! Oh my.
Ok, so I’m going to start out with saying… It’s about fucking time that Martin Scorsese received an Academy Award. I mean the guy has been one of the most influential filmmakers in American movie history. O yeah, and how cool was it to see Coppola, Lucas, and Spielberg? I know that they are major Hollywood players but still it was cool to see them present Scorsese with the best director award. Big up’s to Marty.
Now for NBC’s new gangster drama The Black Donnellys… I will admit it, I am going to watch the show next week.
Reasons:
Is it because the show is that outstanding? No, it’s because Heroes is on first and I LOVE that show. So I’ll stick around to how Donnellys show turns out.
What I think about the show:
I think the show has potential and I like how the story is narrated form an outsider’s perspective. Also any time a child can drop an F-bomb on network TV I am stoked.
What I did not like about the show:
It was kind of cheesy at times and sum what predictable, but I can get over that. The thing I did not like the most was that fact that the kid form The Sandlot was playing a hard ass, street thug, gangster. He is should be trying to learn how to play baseball, playing with 10 year olds, believing bull shit stories about guard dogs who protects a house with junk surrounding it (that shit bring down property values, and the neighbors never said anything?), not kidnap mafia members and so support deadbeat family members. When he as acting like a hard-ass (and you could TELL he was acting) I just could not take him seriously.
And last… Hail in San Francisco.
I don’t know? I just thought it was cool. I’m serious, that shit was cool.

Dave Chappelle
Ok, so sorry for not posting on time. You see I had tickets to see Dave Chappelle last and his set did not end till around 3:30. I just want to start of by saying that seeing Chappelle perform for an outstanding 4 hours and 16 min was probably the single most amazing performance by one person I have ever seen in my life. That’s over 4 hours standup (a personal record for Chappelle), which is amazing considering most standup acts are for 30 min to an hour. I have never seen a person so comfortable on stage in my life. After two hours of his new material (the entire show was new stuff) he went on for two + hours of adlib, in which he would ask the audience about what they wanted to talk about. The man was hilarious in covering every topic that was presented to him by the audience. I have seen a fair share of standup acts, but this by far was the most impressive performance I have ever seen. I am still beside my self by the performance I viewed last night.
So it just so happens that Dave Chappelle will be continuing to perform at the Punch line (a small intimate venue) till Thursday, and I highly recommend paying the money ($45 plus a fucking bullshit ticket master charge) to see what I consider to be my generation’s greatest standup comic. Check out the link. punchline

UGG boots. Uhhhhh!
Ok, so I’m just going to lay this on the table. What the hell are you girls thinking wearing those fucking ridicules cave woman boots from a bad 80’s music video? I don’t understand it, and at the same time I have no idea why it bothers me but it just does. I first started to notice the trend three years ago and thought to my self those are fucking hideous, who in the right mind would wear those? Low and behold my campus became FLOODED with the horrible Australian excuse for footwear. I thought the boots would die out (as well they should) but O no. I swear, if had a dollar for every time I went out and would see a girl in So-Cal wearing UGG boots and a mini skirt, I would have been able to payoff my bar tab of every night in 2005. Are you getting my point, they are done! Move on, find some new thing to obsess about. Look, I am no fashion expert, (just look at me) but get rid of the boots. Donate them to the children of Nepal, they have harsh weather conditions and extremely cold climates, they actually would benefit form wearing sheep on their feet.
Common excuses of why not to get rid of UGGS.
But they are so comfortable
Response: Yeah, well so is my bathrobe. But you don’t see me walking around the city or on campus rockin the robe. Why? Because I would look like a dumbass.
But they come is so many colors
Response: Yeah, so do skittles. I’ll tell you what, I’ll buy you a pack. They cost a fucking buck!
But they are so warm
Response: OK, We live in California, the sunshine state. O wait, that’s Florida… Whatever that’s not the point. The point is we don’t live in harshly cold weather like New York, Boston, Chicago, or God forbid North Dakota, so suck it up! You can wear sandals in January… take advantage.
Look I know you have an attachment to them, that’s cool. But you look like Xena Warrior Princess when you wear those boots and the list time I checked mythical monsters and enchanted daemons do not exist. If you want to go ice fishing with Eskimos then UGGS might be the perfect boots for you, but you live in a major metropolitan area, do you self a favor and take that into consideration. So please for the love of God remove the magical boots and send them back to the wonderful land that brought us other fucking atrocious creations such as vegemite,Netball and Rupert Murdock
Just kidding... I love you Aussies.

My Blog
Kevin Smith
Steelers
Best Week Ever
So here are the three blogs I have chosen to shape my blog around. The first is writer/director/actor Kevin Smith. Smith writes about himself and about things in his life as well as funny stories. What I like about Smiths blog is that he keeps it personal and I enjoy that aspect of his blog.
The second I chose is a Pittsburgh Steelers blog. The site is dedicated to other sports teams but has a strong infuses on the Steelers. The blog is funny as well as opinionated and I find it entertaining.
Last is the blog for the VH1 TV show The Best Week Ever. It is basically a continuation of the shows panel who give further incite on the week in pop culture. I will admit it, I think the show is rad, and some of the panel members are extremely hilarious.
I want my blog to incorporate a little of each sight. I want my blog to be personal and funny like The Smith blog, as well as touch on the world of sports in a humorous manner and be a social commentator in the world of pop culture. Let’s see how this goes.
