Because I know all of you are very interested in the supposed Jimi Hendrix sex tape, here's the link to the official site. Click here to see a still (no nudity but nsfw). From watching the preview I am doubtful about it being Hendrix. The dude is definitely biting Jimi's style but it doesn't look like him to me.

The most suspicious aspect of the tape is that it appears to have been professionally (or at least semi-professionally) filmed. The camera seems to move around, meaning that someone was in the room operating it (Jimi didn't just set it up himself), and it also looks like the action is lit for the filming & not from typical household lights. Notice how the people are well lit, and when one of the ladies is riding Jimi, her shadow is directly behind her on the wall. Imagine on one or both sides of the camera there were lights on stands facing the the scene. This would make all three people well-lit on film & create shadows of the three on the vertical wall directly behind them. Now imagine the room was lit by the typical floor lamp and/or ceiling lights. I think the lighting should be different than what we see in this film.

The film has the aesthetics of 1960's porn & not a home movie, although we know that people often try to imitate both the filmic & thematic attributes of professional porn in their own home made dirty movies (as well as in the bedroom). Both the apparent movement of the camera & the shadows could be artifacts of the editing process for the preview so we'll have to wait & see the original when it comes out.


UPDATE: Here's a link to the trailer. It's not much more than a minute long but only has a few seconds from the sex tape. It's an FLV file so you may need to download the FLV movie player.

BREAKING NEWS: I wish Hulkamania wasn't running wild

Adale was right. Ever she first saw the Hulk Hogan reality show she sensed something f'd up about Hulk & his daughter. And yes, that's him rubbing her ass.




Hulk always pretended he was standing up for the American way, but I guess we should have known what lurked in the Hulkster's heart after 9/11

BREAKING NEWS: EVERYBODY IS FASCINATED WITH WIENERS!

Usually the "penis" news on the News n'at headlines links to various stories about some dude getting his wang cut off, but I just looked over and it leads with this story

My 27-year-old son's penis points straight out and won't come fully erect. I know that it's affecting his confidence with girls. Anything to suggest? ...

I couldn't bring myself to read the story but if one of you do please let me know how the lady should deal with the situation.


Speaking of wangs, here's a website for everybody: Full Frontal Friday. It's a spin-off of my favorite gossip website, Crazy Days and Nights. Anyway, FFF features full frontal shots of celebrity dudes, bacon & eggs included. Check it out, it'll make you feel good.

DATELINE: My Couch

Greetings to all of my loyal minions. I just got a new phone so keep you peepers peeled for an email with my new phone number. It's doesn't have as much gadgetry as the Treo but it looks way cooler. Next time we talk you can imagine me lounging about, chatting on this awesome phone



Adale & I have been working all day so there's not too much exciting to report. Even though he was vaccinated against it, last week Mr. Peaches caught a virus from Mimi. He was really sick for a week & then has been dealing with excess snot. One of his eyes is leaking goo, and even though we clean it he often had crusties that make him keep the eye shut.

I feel bad for all of you who didn't get to see the Prince video because it's awesome.

In other news, here's some fun stuff from Boing Boing:

The picture below is from the website Suicide Food, dedicated to signs featuring animals encouraging people to eat them:

I'm not sure what to say about this, but Willie & Snoop performed together in Amsterdam.

SHOKING STORIES FROM THE UPCOMING SIEGFRIED & ROY UNAUTHORIZED BIO:

* Siegfried and Roy enjoyed foursomes with
Liberace and his boy-toy Scott Thorson.

* Siegfried was so scared of the animals
he'd never even hold their leashes.

* Their tricks are done with body doubles
and concealed panels.

* Roy died for a while during surgery
after being bitten by Montecore the tiger.

* Shirley MacLaine is one of many of
their friends who believes Roy did
die and that Siegfried parades around a
hired lookalike.

* the animals had to be zapped with electric
prods to perform.

I am such an idiot for never seeing Prince in concert. The video is from the 1985 American Music Awards. I don't know about y'all, but I think it's fucking amazing.

***UPDATE - Prince ordered me to take down the video or change the audio. I knew that The Purple One didn't allow people to put any videos with any of his music online without permission (which he never grants) and would come after me. So I switched the audio. If y'all want the clip let me know & I'll upload it somewhere you can download it.

Politics is a dirty, dirty business

Poor killbots. Trapped in a world they never made!

Hey all. Sorry about being silent over the last week or so. Been a little stressed about the not-having-a-job thing. Thanks to everyone for the birthday wishes. Thanks to Adale I was able to celebrate my birthday in a haze of gluttony. She made me french toast for breakfast, made me a pizza for lunch, and then I nearly ate myself into a coma via a huge rack of ribs. Oh, I almost forgot that we got cake & ice cream afterwards.

Because I've felt overwhelmed by the job application process I can't really remember any interesting things that have happened in the last week or so, but maybe they'll come to me later (and by that I mean Adale will remind me).

I'll have some pictures up later today of the "cash bash" fundraiser we went to with Adale's mom, held at a firehall out where her parents live.

Cat playing the Theramin

I'm super excited - we're going to see Dale Watson tonight!! I also applied for two more jobs this week - one managing archaeological collections for the State of TX and the other as a fundraiser for UT.

Adale found out yesterday that she has an on campus interview at Temple in Philly!!!

Other than Mr. Peaches having trouble barfing up a hairball (he's been trying to hack it up for 4 or 5 days now) things are going fairly smoothly.

JOE'S HERO?

To deal with obnoxious students who text message during his class, Syracuse University prof Laurence Thomas has a strict policy: If he catches a student doing it, he will end the class immediately and walk out. He’s been making good on his playbook, staging brazen walk outs on his own course after catching students SMSing.

To Thomas, it’s a matter of respect; students need to show some.

So when he caught a student in the front row of a large lecture hall sending a “where r u?” last week, he up and left, and then sent students, the chancellor, and his dean an email about the incident, where he noted the offending student is Cuban and that last year, two Latino students started a game of tic-tac-toe during his class.

USA #1!!!!!!!!!

This strapping young man is Ms. Tammy Thomas, Olympic cyclist and recently convicted steroid user. When a drug tester for the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency showed up to get a urine sample from her, he said that she appeared to have shaving cream around her ear. Why would she have shaving cream around her ear? Apparently she developed a number of tell-tale symptoms of big-time steroid use, such as:

• A deep voice
• Baldness
• A full beard
• Chest hair

Now that's the Olympic Spirit!!

Adale is out of town for a few days at a conference and I'm living the bachelor life. That means I am getting all dolled up for a night out on the town. Look out ladies, here I come!

DATELINE: My Couch

To be honest the transition from high-powered executive to unemployed, pajama-clad lounge-a-bout has not been easy. Adale hasn't once set up a breakfast buffet. I miss the executive lounge at the airport and must set up a time to go hang out there. One day you get to board the flight before everyone else and the next you have a box full of cat shit to empty out.

Don't get me wrong, there are perks to being a man of leisure. I have a slew of Italian Zombie and Cannibal movies on my Netflix queue that I'm finally getting the chance to watch. Mr. Peaches & I are spending a lot of quality time together. And of course it just feels right to be lounging around the apartment in my pj's with Adale.

I do have fun, like watching this video where a guy raps about his cat. He's an inspiration. I feel like I should use this opportunity to take up a hobby but I haven't decided yet. Dale Watson is coming next Wednesday which will be totally awesome (hey Kristen, he's in Baltimore Monday 4/7 at Dangerously Delicious Pies!!).

I hope everybody had a good April Fool's Day. I was trying to think about it and I don't think I've ever pulled off a good prank for April Fool's. When I was in high school my brother, who was in middle school, put Vasoline on all the toilet seats at our house & I sat on one. Any of you ever pull off a good prank?

I'm thinking about changing the focus of On the Couch n'at to pictures like these.
