The Mission

I like my satellite radio. I hear all kinds of things. I'm not sure if I ever posted this, but about 6 months ago I was listening to an outlaw country station and heard a song called "Fat Girls and Weed" by Renegrade Rail. It was pretty damn funny. But I digress...

Listening to some of the alternative rock stations, I've been hearing a song called "The Mission" by Puscifer. Check out the song...it's kind of catchy



Puscifer is the brain child of Maynard James Keenan of Tool and A Perfect Circle. (A different Brother Maynard than the one from Monte Python or the one who lived in 702C Sullivan for a while.) Puscifer is his little side project where he collaborates with different artists. The first Puscifer song I heard was Cuntry Boner. There is a reason you won't hear this on regular radio. The lyrics are definitely NSFW, unless you have headphones!

One thing I found very interesting is the girl singing in "The Mission" is Milla Jovovich. Yes, the same Milla Jovovich from Dazed and Confused and The Fifth Element. I had no idea she was interested in a singing career.

Cheerwine

I like Cheerwine as much as the next man. Probably a lot more, actually. I like stopping at Wendy's pretty much anywhere west of Asheboro because they have Cheerwine. And after all, it is one of the primary ingredients in the greatest mixed drink of all time, Andrew's Asshole!

I don't know if Cheerwine is trying go national now, but I saw an advertisement for it on Hulu.com the other day. This article from the Salisbury Post says that Cheerwine will also start running ads on MTV, VH-1, and Comedy Central.

I will say that the ad I saw looked like somebody on crack made it. The ad referenced a website called www.itsasoftdrink.com. The website also looks pretty crack-tastic. Saying it's a soft drink and then producing ads and websites that look like a drunk guy made it isn't exactly reinforcing the soft drink angle!

Now, if you'll excuse me, I've gotta run get some Passport Scotch and Canadian Mist.

High on Air?

Man, people in London will do some crazy things to get drunk! But inhaling vaporized alcohol? That seems out there.

It reminds me of a story my father-in-law told me one time. He and 2 friends wanted to drink but didn't have much money. They went to a bar and ordered one shot of whiskey, stuck a fork in the shot, and then sucked the whiskey off the fork. Same principal as a vaporized gin and tonic, I suppose.
