Books/Google WaveMikePod/WalMart

I'm a multitasker. I got an invite to Google Wave. It's a new communication platform. What can you do with it? Hell if I know. Google made an 80 min video explaining it in May. I'm not linking to it because you are already bored by this blog, why should I steal another 80 minutes from you? It is evolving and in testing. It will be interesting to see where this goes in a year or 2.

Read another book.

I went to Wal-Mart his week. There is a new one by my house. Why I need a 3rd one near me has not been explained. But because I had not made a papal visit to this one and because my massive strength broke the door handle off my storm door earlier in the week, I thought I would buy a new one there. Alas, I could not find one, but I did see plenty of humanutty that I remembered this website that documents the sublime looking consumers who shop there, to put it nicely. I will make sure to never wear see through pants there. I'll just wear them @Target.

Blur: "The Great Escape"
Cream: "Those Were The Days disc 1"

Sabado Gigante

So I was killing off the last beer on Sat night when I came across Sabado Gigante. I love the humor and I love the women. Anywho, I happened on to a segment called "Miss Colita". There were several women dancing and I wondered what Colita meant. Well I Googled it and it meant booty. I just imagined the winner, the lovely Yanira
telling her parents that she was competing for Miss Colita and to wish her luck. I don't want to be the butt of jokes here, but it cracked me up.

MikePod:
Blur: "Leisure"
David Honeyboy Edwards: "Mississippi Delta Bluesman"
Snowpatrol: "Final Straw"
Throwing Muses: "House Tornado"
U2: "Wide Awake In America"

Vampire Trends

I want my Mummy! I can't wait until this vampire trend dies out. I came across this stupid link from People on Robert Parkinson's "30 Hottest Stares". I have 35 hot stares, ha ha! All his stares look the same and he looks like Robert Smith's son

Bela Lugosi's Dead!

Generic Post, related to Emily Post? Post cereal? Anywho I finished another book, see review here.

MikePod:
AC/DC: "Dirt Deeds Done Dirt Cheap"
Alice In Chains: "Dirt"
George Harrison: "Cloud 9" (What if he ended up on Cloud 1,4237 when he passed)
Little Feat: "Let It Roll"
Montrose: "Montrose"
REM: "Out Of Time" I ran out of time with these guys along time ago.
Pixies: "Bossa Nova"
U2: "October" How appropriate. Gotta joke. Guy: I love you. Woman: I love you too. Guy: Yeah, Bono's great isn't he.
Robert Plant: "Fate of Nations" I though the and his family were in town recently because the weather woman said we needed to bring in the Plants from the cold.
Stan Ridgeway: "The Big Heat"
Yardbirds: "Ultimate, disc 2"
That Petrol Emotion: "Chemicrazy"
Rolling Stones: "Hot Rocks, disc 2"

I'm Backkkk!

So I took most of the summer out but I am now back to posting. I wonder what I am going to do with those "Chicago 2016" T-shirts I made in my basement. Maybe I make t-shirts that say "I went to Copenhagen and all I got was this lump of coal." Maybe if we sent a few rappers and one of the girls from "The Hills" we would have won. I understand that Ronnie "Woo Woo" Wickers ended up over there. The tantalizing thought of having the authorities keep him there would have been enough to offset the Olympic loss. Anywho here's the MikePod for this week:

Doors: "Best Of Disc 1"
John Mellencamp: "American Fool" (I swear, I did not listen to this because of the Olympic rejection)
Nirvana: "Incesticide"
REM : "Out Of Time"
Rolling Stones: "Let It Bleed"
Throwing Muses: "Hunkpapa" I saw them 3 times.

Jon Gosselin Posts ...And complains

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

Hi. You know who I am. I wanted to post on this blog before you forgot. As you know, I hate Kate. But there is one thing I hate more and that's not being on a reality show. I am trying out for other shows. I got rejected for "The Hills" because I am too old. It would have been nice to be rejected for being too smart. Hmm. I hope that being fired from the show will not result in women not wanting to be seen with me. No one is that shallow, right? I am thinking of starting a show called "Celebrity Tit Club", where I interview the boobs of famous people and talk about issues of the day. I think the interview with Madeline Albright's and Karl Rove's will be particularly fascinating. Now I need to earn my keep. Here's the MikePod:

AC/DC: "Back In Black"
Doors: "Best of Disc 2"
Robert Plant: "Mighty Rearranger"
Rolling Stones: "Black & Blue"
Rush: "Chronicles"
U2: "Rattle & Hum" (Am I buggin ya? Don't mean to bug ya)
Van Halen (not Van Heflin)"Diver Down"
Yes: "Big Generator"
Free: "Best Of"

Uncle Charley From My Three Sons posts

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

"Steve, I can't stand these kids!" I'm Uncle Charley and I am here to report on this
stupid blog. For what reason I don't know. Mike is probably listening to that "groovy music" Chip likes. I warned him about the Beach Boys. I really want to go back to the Sea. Not the Holy See, but the ocean. Let's not hear any jokes about sailors or seamen or semen, OK? I am tired of hearing that I look like Moe Howard. And you in the media, don't interview my last girlfriend, I dated a mop on my last ship. At least she had more personality than Fred MacMurray.

Here's the MikePod (Sounds like a Russian sub):
Depeche Mode: "Music For The Masses"
James Mac Murtry (I thought he was one of Fred's kids, but no he's Larry's kid)"Too Long In The Wasteland"
REM: "Monster"
Rolling Stones: "Let It Bleed"
U2: "Zooropa"
Van Halen: ( I remember Van Heflin)"OU812"
Yes: "Classic Yes" I always gave a classic no to anything Chip asked for.
Don't you think Ernie looked like Jerry Lewis?

Hi sunshine, Robin here, I'm posting for Mike this week. Mike and I have a couple of things in common. We both went to the Dr. recently. He told me I was terminal. Terminally cute! And a babe too, don't forget that. Mike was told he is overweight. Another thing we have in common is books. I like to write them, Mike likes to read them. Mike has not been called cute since he popped out of his mom and the Dr. spanked him on the butt. Anywho, my job today is to report to you on the MikePod:

Interpol: "Antics"
Ivy: "Apartment Life" Cool band. Mike actually met these guys in 1997. The singer has the foxy French thing goin on, just not quite as cute as me.
Ozzy Osbourne: "The Ultimate Sin"
Peter Gabriel: "So"
Pink Floyd: "The Wall, disc 1"
Public Image Ltd: "Greatest Hits"
Ride: "Nowhere" Mike saw these guys in the 90's
Rolling Stones: "Dancing So Free" Mickboy remaster of "Goat Heads Soup"
Steely Dan: "Gaucho"
The Who: "Best Of"
Meat Puppets: "Up On the Sun"
U2: "War" I told a guy one I loved him. He said "I love you too." I replied "I think Bono is great as well!"
Suzanne Vega: "99.9F"

Evil Twin Ike Posts

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

Hello, I am Mike's evil twin Ike. Here are our differences. Mike likes to read. I like to write. Mike likes to rock, I like to roll. (One time in 7th grade, Mike rolled and I beat down his scrawny ass)Mike likes to rest on pillows, I like to rip the tags that say "Don't Remove". We have an on going bet that ole Mikey is losing regularly. That is he thinks there will be a flat chested woman on Sabado Gigante and I keep telling him that there is a better chance of finding a PETA member with a sense of humor before that happens. So my purpose tonight is to announce what is on the MikePod. Here tis:

Stevie Ray Vaughn: "Texas Flood" A blues/rock masterpiece. And I don't need to be Alistar Cook to know that.
Depeche Mode: "Violator" Great Mope rock album
Beach Boys: Good Vibrations Disc 4.
Steely Dan: "Aja"
U2: "Boy"

W. Edwards Deming Professional Egghead Posts

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

Hi. I deal with figures, so in that sense I have something in common with supermodels but that is where comparisons end. Mike just finished reading my book Out Of The Crisis Oh and a book about something called Google Apps Don't you think I look like the Batman villain Egghead, just sexier? The intelligence of my pinky is more than the collective intellectual output of The View. Or 200 Lauren Conrads. In fact, I had an erection that won a national spelling bee in 1938.

Well enough about me. My posting tonight was to let you know what books Mike has been reading and someone tomorrow will let you know what is on the MikePod. Also, the new lawnmower will make a statement. So que up the lefty workingman folk songs and enjoy Labor Day weekend. Beer brought to me by Dundee Honey Brown

Old Lawn Mower Posts

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

Hi. I'm Mike's inanimate and obstinate old mower. We met in 2003 @Ace Hardware. He found me temperamental. For that, I broke my grass protector and he had to pay for a new one and install himself. Before that even, he did not pay much attention to me and I blew out my carburetor. Then he started cleaning my carb once a month. Good boy. But I still demanded more attention by having little things go wrong. He responded oafishly. Well this past summer our relationship really hit the skids. I blew out my starter coil twice. He fixed me once and then I did it again. So we have parted. I wished him and his new Craftsman well. He wished me well in the junkyard. I heard he already has dumped the new Craftsman for another one. Jerk. My mother warned me about guys like him.

Besides, I like grass!

The Past Posts

http://mrbuyer.blogspot.com/

Hi. It's me Mikey, from about 1980. See how damaged I was from the Carter years? Any who I have used a time machine to post to this Intronut thing because my 43 year old self apparently has better things to do. If I know myself well and I think I do, he is probably sitting somewhere beering it up and complaining about the government full time. Did you know I am on Facebook? Don't ask me. We just got rid of our
1950's Westinghouse TV. I wonder if in the year 2009 there will be flying cars, free porn and robot body guards to beat up the bullies who don't like mouthy skinny kids. The primary reason for my post today is to report on my future sound device. Kinda like a Walkman on steroids. It is called the MikePod:

Steely Dan: "The Royal Scam"
The Police: "Synchronicity"
REM: "Reckoning"
Meat Puppets: "Monsters"
Replacements: "Let It Be"
Public Image Ltd: "9"
Beach Boys: "Good Vibrations Box Disc 3"
Midnight Oil: "Diesel & Dust"

Send me an email Don't hold your breath, It will be about 30 years in the future before I read it.

Brett Favre Posts, maybe, yes, no maybe

Hi. I am the most indecisive man in America. Congratulate me. Obviously "Con" is in congratulate and I have pulled another con on the NFL, media and more to the point the Vikings. I like attention like 95% of the young women who have appeared on MTV's "The Real World." I don't like training camp, the Packers and inattention. I just hired Spencer Pratt to handle my publicity. He is going to put out a statement that I am not lipsynching in concert and that my breasts are real. Also, he is excited about my Playboy spread. I didn't know I had one. Oh well, more food @ the attention buffet for me I say! Now, blue pants or white? Red? Black?
Here's Mike's iPod info:

MikePod:
Police: "Ghost In The Machine"
Steely Dan: "Katy Lied" In Chicago this week, playing several nights, a whole album each night.
Billy Idol: "Greatest Hits"
Muddy Waters: "Best Of" Any album of his could be a Best of
Neil Young: "Mirror Ball" Pearl Jam backs him up on this one.
Stone Temple Pilots: "Core"
Public Image Ltd: "Happy?"
Black Sabbath: "Volume 4" Metal classic
Deep Purple: "Machine Head" Ditto (Not in a Rush Limbaugh way)

Plax Posts

Hi Plaxico Buress here. I am posting for Mike while I wait for the boat that sends me up the river. Let's get something straight right now. If I am drowning my sorrows like the way I drowned my career in a bar do not ask me if I want a shot OK? That's like asking Rachel Barton if she wants a leg when you are eating chicken. That reminds me of a story Mike told me. He was in college and partying @ some one's house (of course it was some one's house, somebody owned it) and there was a guy who lost his left hand. Well he did not misplace it, it was amputated. Anyway, Mikey says this guy was obnoxious and ordering him around. He demanded a beer, chips, salsa @ the same time, so Mike goes "Hold on, gimme a hand!". Needless to say the evening ended early after a heated discussion of etiquette. Moral: Think before you speak, OK?

Peace out!
Plax

Abe Vigoda posts

Hi I'm Abe Vigoda. Yes, I am still alive.
In addition to appearing in the Godfather and Barney Miller, I had an awful sitcom called Fish. Oh and another thing. If you see a sign in a market that says "Fresh Fish Here" that does not mean I showered and am appearing @ your local market, OK? I am tired of being asked to pose for photographs with puckered up lips. I hated that show. My wife had a voice that killed birds in midair. I am trademarking the Fresh Fish name. Could be a good rapper name or sitcom. Or a sitcom starring a rapper. Did you see some jerk is marketing t-shirts w/ my mug on them? Anyway here's Mike's vitals:

MikePod:
Steely Dan: "Pretzel Logic"
The Police: "Zenyatta Mondata" Mike wants to write a rap song called "Help The Police". Meaning local law enforcement, not this band.
Deep Purple: Made In Japan. Iron Maiden had a live album called "Maiden Japan" Nice to know there is a sense of humor in metal.
Jesus & Mary Chain: "Automatic"
Talking Heads: "Stop Making Sense"
Van Halen: "Van Halen II"
Whitesnake: "Slide It In"
Yardbirds: "Live Yardbirds" Has an early version of "Dazed & Confused"
Neil Young: "Ragged Glory"
