corny jokes from surjeet

* note: article much funnier if read in with an english accent
** note: old timey 40s radio announcer voice also acceptable

In Pharmacology, all drugs have two names, a trade name and generic name.
For example, the trade name of Tylenol also has a generic name of
Acetaminophen. Aleve is also called Naproxen. Amoxil is also call
Amoxicillin and Advil is also called Ibuprofen.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful
consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it
has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were
Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

Pfizer Corp. announced today that Viagra will soon be available in liquid
form, and will be marketed by Pepsi Cola as a power beverage suitable for
use as a mixer. It will now be possible for a man to literally pourhimself a
stiff one. Obviously we can no longer call this a soft drink, and it gives
new meaning to the names of "cocktails", "highballs" and just a good
old-fashioned "stiff drink". Pepsi will market the new concoction by the
name of: MOUNT & DO.

Thought for the day: There is more money being spent on breast implants and
Viagra today than on Alzheimer's research. This means that by
2040, there should be a large elderly population with perky boobs and huge
erections and absolutely no recollection of what to do with them.

Long Night

So, this dude from this band 'Suburban Legends' paid me $1000 to torch his van for him!

I was so excited, I put The Passion of the Christ to Benny Hill music

Jul 20, 2006

vans ablaze

so this band called "suburban legends" is out on tour with our boys from boston, westbound train ... last nite they played st louis and i guess after the gig they went out to some suburbany-nice residential area to crash at a kids house ... all good ... except at some point in the middle of the night there van was broken into, 5000 in cash was taken, and then the VAN WAS SET ON FIRE ...

damn

THAT shit is cold blooded

heres the first of what im sure will be many pictures ....

i mean, im not a fan, but that sucks ... however ... there is somethin sketchy bout a band haulin all their gear out the van, but leavin 5k in cash in the van ... kinda sounds like an inside job to this guy, but im not tryin to stir up no shit ...

whatever the situation, that sucks

ILL BE SPINNIN REGGAE THIS SUNDAY AT TUMANS (chicago ave and leavitt) FOR REGGAE BRUNCH STYLEE ... JAMAICAN STYLE BRUNCH ... VEGAN DISHES AVAILABLE !!

Jul 12, 2006

WOWEEWEEWOW!

i want to make a sexual explosion ... eh, inside you ...

myes, i like !

thats the sound of the beast ! (pt 2)

oh, and the loft party the drastics played a couple weeks ago got raided by the cops too ... 2 for 2 people ! ... heres my account of the first time

this one was especially sweet cause we hauled all of our gear up 3 flights of stairs (no elevators) to wait 3 hours while the other groups and djs went on way to long* ... we finally set up, played 3.5 tunes when BAM in rolls the pigs ... we jus kept playin this time cause we couldnt believe this was happenin AGAIN ... the crowd started chanting "drastics" at one point, and the cops jus stood around lookin really annoyed till they died down, at which point chris (bass) hit a nice low note and let it start feedin back so there was jus the awful cacophony of feedback and 100hz that the cops were tryin to yell over ... i followed suit and started playin some military-esque drum cadences till the cops looked like they were bout to start hittin people ... same run down as last time though with one of the cops wantin to know who we were, but we had our act together this time and no one said shit to the cops ... and the same run down with one of the cops sweatin me to pack my drums up when there was about 8 people around my drumset tearin down amps/turntables/etc ... he threatened to arrest me if i didnt start packin up right away ... i told him i had no where to put them, and no way to even get to them, and no space to tear them down even if i did get back there ... didnt matter of course ... jerk ...

oh! and this had to be one of the most ill concieved and poorly planned loft parties ive ever been to (actually, it probably was the worst) ... 5 bux to get in and THEN 3 bux for bud in a keg or 5 bux for a mixed drink !?!? are you kidding me !? who can afford that ?? and they were stoppin people at the door who brought their own booze ... so maybe im bein selfish cause i was thinkin bout the fact that we werent playin till 2, and i was worried everyone was gonna be out of money and leave ...

... and then there was the bartendress ... lord ... i dont think ive ever met a more fully rounded bitch in my life ... seriously, this woman hated life with a zeal that would make richard simmons want to commit suicide ... ill give you the run down ...

so its the begining of the nite, doors aint even open yet and the bands there jus chillin after haulin all our gear up 3 flights of stairs ... we also drink for free, duh ... so i guess a couple of the guys had gone up and gotten somethin when elliot (guitar) goes and gets a beer, bartendress says "3 dollars", elliot shows her the stamp on his hand which equates him to a band and thusly to free booze ... at which point this girl sighs loudly and says "uhhh, im not going to make any money tonite" ... so i go up shortly after and get a rum and coke, show her the stamp on my hand, she makes a face, but i put a buck in the tip jar anyway jus to try and appease, cause in my experience, a happy bartender always makes your nite much better ... so a lil while later i go back up to get another drink she pours it, comes back and says "5 dollars" i show her the stamp again, at which point we have the following exchange ...

bitch: "ya know, you can tell your friends that I'M working and that they can tip"
me: "well, we're working too, we hauled all our stuff up 3 flights of stairs, and besides that, i gave you a buck last time i got a drink"
bitch: "well, you can still tell them that they can leave a tip"
me: "look hunny, if i broke up the money we're gonna make off tonite amongst the 8 people in my band wed each walk outta here with 8 bux**, and besides I TIPPED YOU, why you yellin at me"
bitch: "im not yellin at you, im just lettin you know what you can tell your friends"

ugh ... that actual "conversation" was longer and much more heated, but i dont remember exactly how it played out ... there were several more exchanges like this between the bitch and various drastics ... so we stole a handle of whiskey and rum, got loaded, elliot passed out and we drew all over him with marker cause were 16 and shit like that is still funny to us ... wheeeeeee !

the end.

*(in my opinion anyway ... i mean, its an all hiphop event, and you invite a reggae group to play, you need to break up the nite and put the reggae somewhere in the middle to keep a little variation goin)

** (ok, so that was a lie, itd be more like 20, but still, thats NOTHING)

death to the bluntest

the hell ?

well, i think its official that the bluntest has entered its autumn years ...

sittin in a blog retirement home with countless other blogs that failed to maintain enough force or focus to keep it goin ... reminicing bout the good ol days ...

i apologize (as usual) for my slackerdom, but ive been busy totally redesigning this and building up my own site

only a year though ... that parts kinda sad ... though im sure our run time is pretty good when compared to to the mean life-span of your average blog (ooh, good research project ... how long does the average blog last ??) ... like that one your little sister started in college cause, like, oh my god, college life is so crazy, i have to tell you about how fucked up i got las nite ... whatever, shut the fuck up ... ive actually been thinkin about the bluntest with some frequency lately cause ive started to realize that i gotta lot of shit id like to rant about, mostly music, art, politics and the politics of art and music ... but i also dont want to be that asshole who just bitches on his blog, cause theres more then enough of those guys out there already, and are probably doin it better then i ever will since im not really full of that much animosity ...

eh, ya never know, ill probably get to at least one, somethin thats been really buggin me lately ... the murder of live music by the dj culture ...

in the meantime, if anyones out there anymore, check these ...

lookin to buy a monkey?

this this has already made the rounds of fark and whatever other uber-blog/forums there are, but its still funny as hell

i just love this headline ... good article bout the technical side of reggae, though the headline is misleading ... good musicians in jamaica sprang from those nuns, not the music itself ... pretty sure most of those roots are in africa ...

drugs are good !
