For mine, the AmStaff has to be the greatest dog breed of all time. This vid is not of my dog, but she is the same breed/colour and build. They’re loyal, protective of property but, gentle as lambs when with the family, I could go on. Pacifists at heart (“Pie” has never been in any kind of argument) This vid shows the freaky athleticism and tenacity when playing. Some of the shots towards the end are astounding.
They just love to pull. I’m a big heavy guy and I’ve been pulled to the ground a couple of times when playing tug-o-war! Then instantly greeted with a “sorry” lick and nuzzle :-)

Steve Martin busts out the banjo

Posted: January 31, 2007 in Music

I’m all about the banjo right now…
BTW: Steve Martin has to be on of the most talented man alive today, hands down. A musician, comedian, author, father, all ’round good guy acording to reports.. and he owns your face on the banjo!

say WHAT?!
There’s been a lot of chatter about bathing cats on blogs recently… I don’t know what all the fuss is about.

Want to see Bohemian Rhapsody, complete, solo on classical guitar? with split shots to show some of the finest tech i’ve seen. The clip is an actual lesson. I would need 3 lifetimes to be able to play this..

The “Amen” break. If you’re not seriously into drums / beats and what makes them tick, this will send you to sleep. If you are… it’s gold.

Ghostbusters Ecto 1

We’ve seen a lot of expensive movie memorabilia before, but nothing as cool as this. The Ghostbusters Ecto 1 ($150,000) is the 1959 Cadillac that the ‘Busters drove in the original film. As fate would have it, that isn’t the only movie the car has made an appearance in — it was also featured in In the Heat of the Night, starring Sidney Poitier. Sure, it’s $150K, but it’s also one of the most unique and memorable cars in movie history.

The future is getting closer….

Awesome.
I know High School sucks for EVERYONE, but you have to agree that it is cooler today than back in the olden days when we went…
