General Motors

Wow, a GM blog, can't get any better than that.

http://www.mervz.com/blog/

Except I think GM can suck my left nut for cancelling all of their "good cars" It's ok chevy, endorse the cobalt, but cancelling the Monte Carlo and Camaro is a GREAT idea, fuck 'em. So what power does that mustang put out again?

Heartache, going to the inside

I'm listening to the "The Race is on" by Sawyer Brown, Other than the chorus I can barely make out every other word outside of the chorus. Am I alone on this? Listen to it dudes/dudettes. I think its the worst a little after the first chorus.

I swear I get a little more paranoid about the stupidest things every day, and the police know this because they put a chip in my brain.

See, I do browse! Sort of

I try to stick to my blog roll and blog -pending- roll when I go reading about the internet, But I actually decided to surf with the "Next Blog" thing on the top of my page.

It was quite the adventure let me tell you. After dodging ad-blogs by the hundreds, deciphering all of the crappy symbols that said ad-blogs sometimes use. As well as all of those blogs in 8 different languages, I finally came to one that was in english. But par for the course, she was some "I'm depressed, I hate conformity, check out my black swag, john kerry rules" type. Well that's just fancy let's see what comes up next. Repeat; Car Parts, Spanish, I'm gonna slit my wrists, Viagra, Japanese, My blog is all black, LIKE MY SOUL!, Ford cars, ooo a RUSSIAN one!

And then finally I end up hitting a somewhat normal guy, whom I find myself agreeing with on ALMOST every post.

http://bergnet.blogspot.com/

He seems to have his shit together, be sure to drop by and tell him to keep it up. I might not agree with him that Mel Gibson is overratted, because I'd sure as hell want to look like that when i'm in my late 40's, cause that's a hell of a lot better than what I have now, which is a hell of a lot worse than aformentioned "All black, pale skin, i'm gonna slit my wrists." We all know how that looks, FUCK! IM SO UGLY!

Dual SMG's

I keep taking these quiz's only because they're so RIGHT!!!!! And this one, this isn't only the greatest coincidince ever, it was destiny.



Though I will admit I think my gf know's the real me. Damn me and my badassness.

our very own political balloon!

as this Schaivo thing gets bigger and bigger as we approach her death. I hate the entire media circus a little more each day. This thing has been blown way way out of proportion. My stance? I was neutral on the whole thing leaning towards life. If I were in that poition I don't know if I'd want to go through with all of that but even I don't know if i'd want to die, but as for the benefit of the doubt it should always err to the side of life. I think a lot of people would agree with that stand point.

But that's no longer the issue. When congress intervened there was a huge debate on whether or not that was constitutional, from what i've read it seems to be but by using a number of loop holes. Either way the federal government trying to over-turn a state court decision sent ripples through my GOP blood, as most right-wingers favor state over federal. I was upset with my reps both in congress and the white house. I was very upset about it but have now just come to terms and dealth with it, i'll move on. But apparently across the blogosphere there's talk of converting from our precious GOP to the libertarian party over this. Wow.

This whole issue just tore the right in half, it will take years to recover any lost voters. Because of Terri we may have just secured the POTUS seat in '08 for Clinton. It's been completely over-blown, even my writing blows because of this. I can't think straight!!! I'm just so upset about all of it, whatever, i'm going to watch some serious Simpsons and watch the media have a hay day with the fall of the GOP.

Now I am the master

Just click it. here, let me recreate my own reaction to seeing it for the first time when I went to Robots.

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, OH MY GOD WOW!!! AAAHHHHGGGG!!! I CANT WAIT! I CANT WAIT! KICK HIS ASS OH MY GOD! THATS THE EMPEROR SEIZING POWER!!! WOW!!! THIS IS SOOOOO COOL!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Now the question for all of you is.....

What are you doing on May 19th?

The revolution

Here. Right there is where its all going down. I love chevy a little more every day, and then I see this....Damn. The New Monte Carlo, the Z06, the Trailblazer SS, ooooo it just gets me gitty!!! I better be winning the lottery pretty fucking soon.

Down by stark's pond

The other day i'm watching the 5th season of south park on DVD and I watch an episode where Mr. Garrison is upset with the airline companies because of the horrendous service. He invents a gyroscope car thats operated by shoving the seat up ur ass and controlling it with your mouth and hands. Oh you know what it looks like. Either way the entire project is a huge success, with the rallying motto of "It's better than flying." The airline company is just about run out of business and everyone is "Sort of" happy. They'd rather get raped in the ass then fly on that god damned plane.

Its the purest example of what I believe in, simple freedom of choice on the part of the consumer. The decisions we make and what we buy depends on what gives rise to new frontiers and what fails. Because people hated the airlines, a new form of transportation is born, the airlines might lose, but only because of their incompetence and refusal to adjust is what brought them there, the real winners are the consumers. We shouldn't do anything to hinder the competition between these businesses. It compeltely upsets the system and everybody loses.

At the end of the episode the airlines are facing bankruptcy, so the government comes in and shuts down Mr. Garrison to protect the airlines. Because of this the Airlines continue to be dicks, and the customers are stuck with it.

And this my friends is the purest example of why the gas bill in the North Dakota house is an undeniable crock of shit. The governement is trying to cover the asses of some fuck face businesses who refuse to lower their prices and actually compete. Fuck them. God forbid the free market actually determines the price.

Does that thing got a Hemi?

Back from a wonderful weekend with the girlfriend. BTW the ring 2 wasnt all that great, to much of the same, not enough new stuff, a really great idea that was just demolished with poor writing.

Anywho I'm still looking at car stuff and I think I found the winner, do you know how I know? Well it's because I laughed. Yes that's right I laughed at it at first. But I read and read and read, and I realized....This is the performance upgrade to end all performance upgrades. Right Here

Yea that's right, a T04-B P trim Garrett turbo. Some laugh, others will cry. But when I asked my automotive bretheren I got shocked looks, puzzled grins, and blank stares. This was perfect. I asked my auto teacher about it and showed him the set up, his mouth literally dropped open and slowly said "....wow." This is MORE than perfect. Let the savings begin, I planned it out and saving virtually every penny I can pay off my car and buy this (About 4500 for the Turbo Alone) and i'll be able to buy it next january. Perfect. A turbo charged monte carlo SS, I'll be the hottest mother fucker on Main St.

Donations are accepted.

Go to hell

You know for being a completely fucking dick of a republican, I really didnt expect this.

The Dante's Inferno Test has sent you to Purgatory!

All I can say to all of you is that I answered truthfully and i'm very happy about this because at least I know i'm doing good according to this test, and to all the liberals who hate me for whatever reason, well....

EAT THAT BITHCES!!!! JUST GO TO HELL FUCKERS!!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHA.

Oh that saying right there prolly just sent me to the 2nd ring.

Everyone's favorite holiday

Happy Steak and BJ day everyone. I'm gonna go out for some serious steak tonight, as for the BJ I don't know, i'm flexible but not that much.

Reason #1283 of why I hate the government

Back, in 1 piece believe it or not. But I'm irked, in a way that few could even fathom. So let's go off on a rant...

In the North Dakota House right now is a bill, or heaping pile of shit as like to call it, but some prefer to say the easy to remember SB2389. What is this bill? Well other than the most communistic plot since the welfare program. In a nut shell it's going to make a law that says you cannot legally sell Gasoline at less than the cost. Apparently they can do that. This whole time I thought I was in the USA, not Canada. But anyway the bill directly targets our incoming "Super Walmart" who is known to sell gas below cost and drive small business....out of business. In theory anywho, when the same incident occurred in Fargo the only thing that seem to be crushed were greedy gas stations and high gas prices, thus why Fargo's gas is always at least 15 cents less than Bismarck's. The bill is clearly designed to defend the small business, I laugh at the idea....

This concern isn't really that it will drive gas stations out of business, but that it will cause people to come to Wal-Mart to get ALL of their goods; groceries, DVDs, Condoms, etc. Driving OTHER businesses...out of business. There's a huge deal about how it will run our locally owned grocery stores into the ground. Once again, I laugh out loud. If you've been to Bismarck you'd notice there's only one "Real" grocery store, Dan's supermarket, there's I think 4 of them in the Bis-Man area, I don't know they crush some small business and take it over every other week anyway so another one probably sprung up as I typed this. There's also a smaller Chain known as Barlow's, (Where I shop). moreover just a small player in the game of paper and plastic. But Dan's literally has a stranglehold on the populus, you don't go to the grocery store, you go to Dan's. It's ridiculous, Dan's is nothing short of a monopoly in the world of Bismarck, fuck 'em. Dan's super market could literally choose the price they want, most people would just continue to go there anyway, because they're "Locally owned." There's at least 3 stores, REAL competition is something we need.

With Big evil corporations come the sounds of crying business owners across the town. A sound I cheer and hope for. The corporation can jump the middle man and offer lower prices for the same products, forcing other businesses to lower their price as well. It's what every one should hope for, yet they jeer and hate them because of their success. Big corporations, are simply small businesses that succeeded, incredibly. I support the winners in the game of life personally. McDonalds, Wal-Mart, Target, Wendy's, Once only had 1 store a piece. But with superior products and business desicions they became the tops in their market. Competition is the fuel of capatalism, not the "Blood of the working man" (Blow me Moore).

If Walmart comes to town it will force the other gas stations to lower their prices and actually create "Competition." Same goes for Dan's and Barlows. It's long been known that the gas station owners have been co-operating together to control gas prices to their advantage. FUCK THEM. We find ourselves in another monopoly, now they lobby for this fucking filth so they can maintain it. Regardless of what happens I plan to buy all of my gas at the new wal-mart. That's the power I have as a consumer, you all have the same power, and powerful it is.

One man in a letter to the editor regarding "Shit bill 2389" put it perfectly...
"I want a promise that gas prices will continue to fall, not that they won't go any higher."

A-fucking-men brother. With the passing of this bill, it doesn't limit the powers of a business, or protect another, it only does one thing

Hurt the Consumer

Fuck you conoco and amoco, I fill 'er up at Wally World.

AHH! MY LEG!!!

Odds are that's what i'll be screaming this weekend as I prepare to go on my snowboarding "Pilgramage" to Big Sky Montana. God be with me, the only time I ever wear my crucifex is when i'm snowboarding. Because god is the only one with you when you hit 50mph somewhere between a rock and a hard place. I'll be back on Monday, don't party without me.

Btw Army of mom has an awesome quiz she found, as you can clearly see, i'm not gay. That is all.

Metal Trunk...plastic parts

Well I found out that NONE of the holes I drilled line up with my spoiler, I needed to drill 5 new ones and fill 2 more, if that couldn't get any worse while I was spraying the clear coat the gun I was using took a shit on me and was dripping clear all over the trunk lid. My supervisor seeing this while I was oblivious, ran over and tried to stop me, but his shirt caught my trunk lid and threw it onto the floor, completely ruining the tips of my fresh paint. Fuck. It was fixed as best we could I guess, and tomorrow i'm going to try to buff out my finger prints where I tried to catch it. As if that couldnt get any worse the spoiler wouldnt line up at ALL. I had to keep widening the new holes to try to get it to sink in. But it's ok because the spoiler has the worst bow in it ever. God damn. The whole thing has been a disaster, I should've known better, my trunk was not designed for this spoiler, and this spoiler was meant for a replacement to the pace car, what I don't have. A complete and utter fucking disaster.

But the world forgot that I'm Alex fucking Cashin, and this is going to look hot as shit despite all the problems i've had to deal with. The automotive fate's are going to have to throw something a lot worse than that to phase Cashin and his SS.

This is my bitching ass new spoiler, Its a pace car spoiler and i'm gonna form it onto my SS bumper, I had to completely redo the bumper but I think it's going to turn out great.

I need a weapon

Halogen has finally updated their site again. It's a mod for C&C Generals that will convert it into the Halo universe. I've been gaming almost all my life, I got my first game system when "Super Nintendo" came out, and literally ever since I've been hooked. So Naturally I fell into the modding community (Counter-Strike, Desert Combat, all the classics and a TON of lesser knowns). Modding is great because it takes a game I already have and makes it BETTER! and it increases the longevity of any game. The irony of all this is that you'd expect the game community to reject this like the RIAA did to mp3's, but the complete opposite happened, they embraced it, EA especially. It's so beautiful, and that's why I bought a new game 5 days ago and a new CD almost 9 months ago. Anywho, I definitely know my stuff when it comes to the quality of mods. Halogen is set to completely rock the world, it's not even really a mod, its described as "A Total Conversion," Bitchin. Keep your eyes on this one peeps, it's gonna be huge.

What road block?

Last night as I was watching some MSNBC broadband video it was intterupted and there was an announcement that US troops had fired at an Italian hostage that had just been released. It sounded like a complete accident from what the reporter said, so when I read the news this afternoon at MSNBC I read....

Hostage Shot by US Back Home

It really didn't make the US look good. I kind of ignored it, understanding the entire article had to be summed up in 6 words or less, and that's more or less what happened. So I click to read the headline...

Freed journalist in Rome after U.S. attack

Wow! Appatently the US Army Rangers went out of their way to "Attack" this poor defenseless hostage who was just trying to get home when all of a sudden the big bad americans got in the way! Now I have a complete vendetta against the entire article.

ROME - Looking haggard and worn, freed hostage Giuliana Sgrena returned to Italy from Iraq on Saturday, hours after American troops fired on the car taking her to Baghdad's airport, wounding her and killing an Italian intelligence officer with her.

True enough

Her brother, Ivan Sgrena, told reporters she was very happy to be back in Italy but was "very sorry and sad" about the death of intelligence officer Nicola Calipari, who Berlusconi said was killed when he threw himself over Sgrena to protect her from U.S. fire.

More of this liberal BS, "He was protecting me from the evil Fascist americans!" Of course, a much smarter thing to do would have been to you know, stop the car....

The U.S. military said the car she was riding in after her release was speeding as it approached a coalition checkpoint in western Baghdad on its way to the airport. Soldiers shot into the engine block only after trying to warn the driver to stop by "hand and arm signals, flashing white lights and firing warning shots," the military said.

Oh those evil Americans, what mother fuckers. Perhaps the "Body Guard" thought that the warning shots were being fired at them, so being the super hero he was he threw himself on top of the hostage, why they didn't stop was beyond me. I don't know what they use in Italy for traffic lights, but apparently Shooting at the Block, Waving your arms screaming, and flashing lights at them all the while firing warning shots in the air, isn't enough. Maybe they weren't using Italian sign language? But here's the kicker of the whole article that makes it all worth while.

The shooting came as a blow to Berlusconi, who has kept 3,000 troops in Iraq, and was likely to set off new protests in Italy, where tens of thousands have regularly demonstrated against the Iraq war. Sgrena's left-leaning newspaper vigorously opposed the conflict.

So despite writing for a paper that has been up in arms about the Iraq conflict and how evil it is, she's kidnapped anyway. Whatever. In the "Instant report" that I heard last night said that the same road block had done the same before and had prevented a number of car bombings. But of course that won't be mentioned, instead we need to dedictate precious megabytes of space to...

Sgrena has devoted career to chronicling the 'weakest'
Killed Italian agent was a practiced negotiator

I stand behind the troops completely on this one. Let's put this into perspective, If i'm minding my own business driving down the interstate and I ignore a police road block that's flagging me down and then i'm subsequently shot in the process, will MSNBC chronicle me and my "sacrafice"? or will the headline read...

Man shot ignoring police orders

oh THAT fucking liberal media!

Hacking at my foot

I watched Saw this past weekend with a bunch of friends, and I needed to take this time to explain something....

I was more right by saying it was the doctor than Ryan was by saying it was the John Guy

Lets look at the facts.... (SERIOUS SPOILERS IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN SAW)

1. The John guy was being tested, same as the doctor. I was more right by simply not taking the obvious choice. Anyone could say "Yea it's the guy fucking everybody up."
2. Simply because John guy was doing the fucking up, The actual killer and the doctor were both not only in the same room during the entire movie, but were doing the same the oppressed being attacked by an "agitator" both the killer and the doctor were both being "oppressed" by an "agitator," Making them one in the same.
3.To clarify #2, The Doctor had been chained to the wall, the killer shot in the back of the head, at the beginning of the movie "presumably" by the john guy.
4. John guy's face was exposed early on, making it clear to anyone framiliar with horror movies, that this was not the killer, making the doctor the only logical choice
5. John guy could have been hired/blackmailed by the doctor to put on his own game and kill adam.

but I need to reiterate #4, to expose the killer's face early on is a serious no no in a genre where u should not know the killer, (Scream, Halloween, Last Summer, Chainsaw masacre, etc.) So to see his face almost nulifys him immediately as the killer, making me MORE right.

yea, I have no life, but that's ok because I drive a chevy
