The Consumers are getting boned again!!!

As we speak the United States government is being pleased sexually simultaneously by the cable companies, the satellite companies and the electronics industry. Were this porn maybe I wouldn't care so much but this is the United States and big business fucking over the people for their own gains. I am referring to the government's decision to switch from analogue to digital television. Why are they doing, to help the average television viewer no to help themselves. This is all one big scam to make more money off of us. This move is encouraging more people to buy cable or satellite or a digital tv or one of those stupid converter boxes. There is no way one can get around this you have to spend money and in this dire economic crisis what the fuck are they thinking. Those rat bastards are just trying to make money off of us how ever they can when ever they can. The government lets this happen because they are in bed with big business. They are already out of money for converter box coupons yet they still advertise their availability on television. Even if you get a converter box you could still get a shitty signal or none at all. So you are forced to buy cable or what ever or another fucking expensive antenna that probably will break once the warranty is up like the rest of the crap they sell us. I love tv I watch a lot of it (mostly PBS) and I don't need 2 bizzilion channels for too much money a month, no sir. Thank god Obama wants to push back the transition because he knows what is really going on.

So Long 2008 I won't miss most of you (but there are a few good months tucked in there)


Well I was able to turn 2008 around in the nick of time! Lets see if I can do the same for 2009 (even though as pointed out by Emma it is an odd year (therefore being not as good as the even ones)). Apparently Bill Gates playing guitar awkwardly is one of the first hits on google images for 2008.

PEANUT BUTTER CRISIS WREAKS HAVOCK ON TWIN CITIES YOUTH!!!

Tragedy has stricken my humble life. While grocery shopping at the Wedge Co-op this past Sunday I was horrified to discover that Wedge would no longer be stocking my favorite peanut butter, "Real Brand." In fact no grocery stores will be stocking this particular brand because its producer, ConAgra Foods, has ceased to produce it! This explains why the last time I went shopping all I could find was the crunchy variety (I prefer smooth but crunchy will do in a pinch). I will have to find some contact information for ConAgra and give them a piece of my mind as I feel that they are making a huge mistake discontinuing their delicious peanut butter.  But there is probably nothing that I can do to get them to resume its production, its not like I could start one of those facebook groups akin to when some dumb ass bets their stupid bro roommate that they'll marry a goat if their group gets 1,000,000 members. I have in fact already begun my search for a new variety of peanut butter. I purchased Mara Natha peanut butter at the co-op (the brand that Tuesday gets) and my mother has purchase Parker peanut butter (produced right in Coon Rapids Minnesota). I prefer the latter of the two, it sticks to the roof of one's mouth better as well as tasting good. Its a really unfortunate turn of events because once most major peanut butter brands begun adding more sugar to their products I had to abandon the old peanut butters that I ate and when I found "Real" that my searching was over. Alas I must now wander the waste land of not having a peanut butter to call my own.

THE RETURN OF THE BEAT PUBLISHA!!!!!!!!!!!!


For my 2D foundation final project I have decide to make a book about Terki Stx created by Alex Klein and myself. It will be called "The Beat Publisha; The Ballad of Terki Stx." I will contain illustrations of Terki and what he does; eating 45s/small children, being a DJ, etc. It will also contain some sort of textual element maybe just prose or possibly a long poem that I could later turn into a country western ballad. Copies of "The Beat Publisha; The Ballad of Terki Stx" will be on sale when it is done for an undetermined price. Its gunna be KICK ASS!!!!!!

OH BLOODY 'ELL!!!

This is an illustration of of old British gentleman for my T-shirt assignment for 2D foundation. Recently upon actually reading the specifics of the project I discovered that I am actually using 9 different colors (including black/white and not including the background) where I was only supposed to use 5 (not including the background color) I figured I should post this image here before I have to change all the hard work I have done so far. So enjoy, WOT WOT!!!

Costco Rocks


Salutations Citizens! Several weekends ago I was taken to Costco, one of the most wonderful monuments of modern American capitalism I have ever seen, where I ironically bought Italian goods. They have cases of San Pellegrino (12 to a box) for approx. 12 bucks. I want a membership just for this! This keep my self pleasantly Europeanized. Let the bubbly flow!!!
