Radiohead @ Deer Creek
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music on 04. Aug, 2008 | No Comments
Yes I called it Deer Creek. And the Colts play in the Hoosier Dome, FYI. Plus I still don’t recognize Mizzoora. This is the first time I have ever seen Radiohead. We were in the pavilion, but we might as well have been in the lawn because of how far back we were. I have [...]
Top Fiver: TheSixtyOne Bands
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music, Top Fivers on 25. Jul, 2008 | 1 Comment
TheSixtyOne has held me in its musical grip since January and it doesn’t look to be letting go any time soon. I’ve already tried to explain to you why it’s so good. Let me see if I can put it another way in an attempt to lure you into the all-consuming fire. You know how [...]
Heroes III: In The Wake Of Gods (WoG)
Posted by The Gimcracker in Gaming on 22. Jul, 2008 | 3 Comments
If you have never played Heroes of Might & Magic III (HOMM3), I highly recommend checking it out. I know everyone’s playing their fancy shmancy Wees, Ecksbockses, World of WoWcrafts and such nowadays, but I can attest that HOMM3 is some of the best fun I’ve ever had playing a video game. Of course, that’s [...]
The Dark Knight

It stars an unlikely actor as “The Joker” who’s accidental death came just before filming was to wrap up. It’s a 2.5+ hour comic book movie spawned from the same franchise that contains filth like Batman & Robin. It had to compete with such summer action blockbusters as Wanted, Hellboy II, and Hancock. It shattered [...]

Posted by The Gimcracker in Amazing, Music on 18. Jul, 2008 | 5 Comments
It’s Friday. That means multiple posts chocked full of stuff I find on Digg. Hold on to your butts. If you’ve seen my first post about Flight Of The Bumblebee performances, you know where I’m going with this. There is some new video footage of the fastest guitarist in the world. Officially the fastest. That’s [...]

Well, I was gonna post about how 99% of cops are complete idiots, but that is going to be a more involved post that I don’t feel like doing right now. In the meantime I stumbled upon a little gem on Digg today. So, here’s a little more light-hearted fun for you: Step 1: Read [...]

Remember that broad who Kissed A Girl? Also remember that girl from The Happening? Well if you haven’t figured it out by now, they look exactly alike. And I’m the first one who pointed it out.
Click this post to play a little game where I’ve included a picture of each person and labeled them A and B. Your job is to figure out which is which. This is a new type of game semantic that I’ve created which you have probably never seen before, so if you get confused just read the comments.
It is sad that this post is the reason my blog has had so many visits over the last year. Whoa whoa, hold on there. I didn’t say I regret writing it.
Flight Of The Bumblebee

There’s something about musical prodigies that can cause me to waste an entire work day on Youtube. Today is Friday and I stayed up far past my bedtime last night. That means today is one of those days. I have compiled an assortment of videos for your viewing pleasure. Today’s theme is Flight of the [...]
‘Indiana Jones 4′: Epic Disappointment The Likes Of ‘Phantom Menace’
Posted by The Gimcracker in Beratings, Movies on 27. May, 2008 | 5 Comments
I don’t know what it is with George Lucas and terrible rehashes of once-untarnished film sagas. Everything he touches nowadays turns to dust. If you choose to see a Lucas film, you have chosen poorly. Maybe my brother put it best when he told me “I knew George Lucas had changed forever when he modified [...]
The Sixty One Tips: How To Bump A ‘Revive’ Song
Posted by The Gimcracker in Music, Stuff On The Internet on 22. May, 2008 | 1 Comment
With the release of the new unlocks on The Sixty One, there are a lot of people trying to bump old songs. Why? Because the newest unlock is called Lewis & Clark, and it requires you to bump songs in under-explored genres (classical, blues, country, hip-hop, jazz, r&b, reggae). Seeing as how I only care [...]
