Flannery Calls Out Obama
I was recently sent this article, written by Appleton Post Crescent Executive Editor Dan Flannery, and I was horrified by what President Obama was going to do tomorrow. Encourage kids to do well in school. Of all the fuckin' nerve.
I just want to make clear: I didn't like McCain and loathed (and continue to loathe) that dumb-shit running mate he had, but I also didn't vote for Obama. And after I heard he wants to send a message to kids, I'm glad I didn't vote for him. I'm sticking with the vote I threw to Nader.
Here's what Flannery wrote.
I checked out the link to whitehouse.gov, and I was mortified to see that Obama encouraging kids wasn't enough. Oh no-- he had to get NASCAR involved. Fucking NASCAR! I can't believe those guys were convinced to encourage kids as well. Obama and his socialist ways knows no boundaries. Now I can't watch any more races. Christ-- gotta watch Grand Prix now.
Does the White House have no shame?
Check out this load of crap:
"Drive to education." Commie propaganda crap!

Premieres and Notables; September 7-14, 2009
My friends at TV Guide decided to skip the noteworthy episode lists (where the bulk of this info comes from) right before the listings in this week's issue. So thanks, you piece of crap magazine. I'll just slog through the Fall Preview listings to try to hit the dates on my own.
I may have renewed my subscription-- but I haven't paid for it yet.
We'll see if I end up sending a check as every other week (since it's barely a weekly mag anymore), I get more disappointed.
Dicks...
Anyway, the Fall 2009 Season kicks off this week with The CW and FOX getting early starts. Things ramp up next week and explode the week after. I guess all the DVDs and tapes I planned on watching over the summer and didn't will have to go into storage until May.
Monday, 9/7
Durham County; ION. 9 pm. Series Premiere.
I have no idea what it's about as I've never clicked to ION before (and for all the ads in TV Guide, it mentions nothing about it). I take that back-- hidden in the listings is this description of the pilot: "A detective relocates to a quiet suburban community to start a new life."
Tuesday, 9/8
The View; ABC. 10 am CST. Season Premiere.
Yippee!!
The Tyra Banks Show; The CW. 3 pm CST. Season Premiere.
Yippee!! Yippee!!
90210; The CW. 7 pm. 2nd Season Premiere.
Melrose Place; The CW. 8 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Mix The CW 90210's approach with an old name (and old faces), and see a big name dead within the first ten minutes (c'mon-- 90210 did it better with the B.J. in the first scene), and you can pretty much know what to expect here.
Sons of Anarchy; FX. 9 pm. 2nd Season Premiere.
Wednesday, 9/9
So You Think You Can Dance; FOX. 7 pm. Season Premiere.
America's Next Top Model; The CW. 7 pm. Season Premiere.
Glee; FOX. 8 pm CST. Series/Season Premiere.
Not sure if "series premiere" is accurate as they aired the pilot last May, but this is the first episode of an extended number of episodes (until it loses all momentum when the baseball playoffs happen next month). And it's only a 13 episode season (so far).
This show about a high school glee club is way better than you'd think it was. I really enjoyed the sneak-peek episode, and I expect it to only get better. This is the show FOX is pinning its entire Fall on, and I think they may finally have a winner in that regards since Prison Break's debut 4 years ago.
Highly Recommended.
Leverage (TNT; 8 pm CST). Summer Finale.
It'll be back in a few months.
Destination Truth; SyFy. 9 pm. Season Premiere.
Thursday, 9/10
The Vampire Diaries; The CW. 7 pm CST. Series Premiere.
This show based on the young-adult novels has had to fight off accusations that it's a Twilight rip-off , and will probably go overboard on the sex (it is The CW) to convince people they have their own, superior, product.
Anyway, the premise is pretty much: two vampire brothers-- one "good" and one "bad"-- vie for the same girl. Hijinks ensue.
I'm not sure if this will be a show I will continue to watch (I'll try the first ep or two), but it was created by Kevin Williamson, who Dawson's Creek, so maybe the younger crowd will go for it.
Supernatural; The CW. 8 pm CST. Season Premiere.
Friday, 9/11
Say Yes to the Dress; TLC. 8 pm. Season Premiere.
20/20; ABC. 9 pm. Season Premiere.
Saturday, 9/12
COPS; FOX. 7 pm. Season Premiere.
America's Most Wanted; FOX. 8 pm. 23rd Season Premiere.
Robin Hood; BBC America. 8 pm. 3nd Season Premiere.
Adoption Diaries; WEtv. 9 pm. Series Premiere.
A feel-good show where birth mothers and adoptive parents work together.
Sunday, 9/13
King of the Hill (FOX; 7-8 pm). Series Finale.
Some of the shine had worn off since its fantastic first few seasons, but this was still one of the best "traditional" family comedies airing during its 13-year run, animated or not.
True Blood (HBO; 8 pm). Season Finale.
I may have renewed my subscription-- but I haven't paid for it yet.
We'll see if I end up sending a check as every other week (since it's barely a weekly mag anymore), I get more disappointed.

I usually don't post these types of things after I see them, but this clip is so brutal, I actually gasped out loud and curled into a ball in sympathy for my incredibly stupid male "brother".
This is harsh-- and it also features a nutsack. Not a sack of nuts-- a nutsack.
So, you know, nudity. If you're squeamish.

My Favorite Things: Chickenfoot
Another in my Oprah-stealing idea "My Favorite Things" infrequent posts.
[Sorry for the run-on sentence. If I don't just type, I'll never get through this.]
Anyway, the Chickenfoot album has been out for two months now, and I haven't commented. A big reason for that is: the album hasn't left my vehicle since I picked it up. I wanted to give a track-by-track rundown, but with the disc in my car, and my computer in my house, it's been tough to do.
You see, Chickenfoot is a great album, especially when played loudly. My car has the best way for me to listen to it loudly, so it's there.
So is it good? Lets just say, when I first played it and turned it up, I said, as Bandit 6 in John Ringo's The Last Centurion (another favorite thing I'll get to later) frequently said: "Oh... my... fucking... God!"
It starts out in true kick-ass hard rock fashion with "Avenida Revolution" and doesn't let up. It's one of very few albums I've heard that doesn't have a clunker in the group. I can listen from the first to last tracks without FFing through a song I'm not into.
I could write about this forever, but I'll just keep it to one of my favorite things about the album (aside from just being a great hard rock album) is that the mix is great. The bass and the drums are just as easy to hear as the guitars and the vocals. When you have a guy like Satriani, one of the greatest rock-style guitarists out there, "allowing" the rhythm section some prominence, you know this dude is all about making the best rock album possible, not just a great guitar album.
To just notch-up my love for this band even more, I saw them in the Twin Cities area (Maplewood, MN, to be more specific) with my better half and my friends Brian (thanks for getting the tix) and Sean.
I was truly impressed by the amount of fun the band seemed to be having.
Of course, Mr. Hagar always looks like he's having fun, and I've seen him in some pretty small venues that may not seem like fun, and Mikey (Anthony) performs much the same way. [Side note: it's damn cool to hear Mike's vocals with Sammy's again. I love the Wabos, but no one does it like Mike.] It was the other guys I hadn't seen live before that clinched it for me.
First is Satch. Cueball bald and skintight shades, he doesn't have the hair flying, wild eyed look that is a staple for hard rock-- but he still worked it. He was on the opposite side as me, so I didn't get to see him as much as the others, but when I did look over there, he had the spread-leg stance that guitar gods have. He also just seems to let the guitar speak for itself. He doesn't draw attention to himself by making wild poses or doing crazy things (aside from the couple of times I saw him playing his axe with his mouth), he just cooks on the guitar.
And finally, Mr. Chad Smith. I could have watched that dude all night. My favorite bands (and nearly all my concert experiences) are Van Halen and Sammy Hagar and the Wabos, so the drummer is usually the "3rd-most important" member, if that; so the drummers are usually in the back and barely seen. But not with Chickenfoot. Chad was almost as far up on stage as everyone else-- and some fool gave him a microphone, which he put to good use. This guy is a clown in all the best definitions of the word. He played Sammy's foil throughout much of the show (more than once when Sammy started telling a story, Chad would start playing the drums to throw him off) and also played a few pranks (my favorite is when he re-tuned the electric guitar slung across Satriani's back while Satch was playing an acoustic).
He also claimed to be from the area (which I verified on Wikipedia), and made a few shout-outs to his mom in the crowd; claiming she was a cougar and that the males in the crowd needed to watch out for her.
And Chad's most impressive (to me) feat: throwing drumsticks out in the crowd-- and always seeming to have a stick in each hand after doing it.
My friend, who wants me to credit him as Turd Ferguson, sent me a few videos he took at the show, so I'll be posting them in the (hopefully) near future. And he also told me about a few better-quality clips he found on the net I'll embed in here as well.
So, first thing: get the album. Second thing: try to catch them live. Third thing: check out the web for clips and interviews.
And finally, I'd like to close this by saying this doesn't seem to be a one-off deal-- which is what I thought it was a few months ago. One album and one tour isn't enough for this line-up. They made a great album, seem to be having a great time on tour, and everyone says this is a band. My favorite line I've read is when Satriani told Guitar Player "This isn't a project. This is a band."
Get on board early.

He doesn't draw attention to himself by making wild poses or doing crazy things (aside from the couple of times I saw him playing his axe with his mouth), he just cooks on the guitar.
And finally, Mr. Chad Smith. I could have watched that dude all night. My favorite bands (and nearly all my concert experiences) are Van Halen and Sammy Hagar and the Wabos, so the drummer is usually the "3rd-most important" member, if that; so the drummers are usually in the back and barely seen. But not with Chickenfoot. Chad was almost as far up on stage as everyone else-- and some fool gave him a microphone, which he put to good use. This guy is a clown in all the best definitions of the word. He played Sammy's foil throughout much of the show (more than once when Sammy started telling a story, Chad would start playing the drums to throw him off) and also played a few pranks (my favorite is when he re-tuned the electric guitar slung across Satriani's back while Satch was playing an acoustic).
He also claimed to be from the area (which I verified on Wikipedia), and made a few shout-outs to his mom in the crowd; claiming she was a cougar and that the males in the crowd needed to watch out for her.
And Chad's most impressive (to me) feat: throwing drumsticks out in the crowd-- and always seeming to have a stick in each hand after doing it.
My friend, who wants me to credit him as Turd Ferguson, sent me a few videos he took at the show, so I'll be posting them in the (hopefully) near future. And he also told me about a few better-quality clips he found on the net I'll embed in here as well.
So, first thing: get the album. Second thing: try to catch them live. Third thing: check out the web for clips and interviews.
And finally, I'd like to close this by saying this doesn't seem to be a one-off deal-- which is what I thought it was a few months ago. One album and one tour isn't enough for this line-up. They made a great album, seem to be having a great time on tour, and everyone says this is a band. My favorite line I've read is when Satriani told Guitar Player "This isn't a project. This is a band."
Get on board early.

Premieres and Notables Addendum
I got an issue of Entertainment Weekly for this week, so I added it to the main post just below.
If you read the Premieres post before noon (CST) on Sunday (8/9), read it again. There's more now.

Sorry it's been light lately. My subscription to Entertainment Weekly ran out (I've since renewed it), and I've mentioned more than once that TV Guide sucks, so there it is...
[Note (8/9, noon CST): got an ish of EW, so there's more now. And TV Guide still sucks...]
Monday, 8/10
Twilight Weekly: Spotlight; Reelz. 9 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Everyone who is tired of hearing about Twilight, raise your hand...
And unless the punctuation is an accident (entirely possible in this Twitter/texting world; and, yes, I blow it sometimes, too-- but I don't f-ing paid for my writing), can we expect more Twilight Weekly's? Maybe a "non-spotlight" or something?
Tuesday, 8/11
Better Off Ted (ABC; 8:30). Season Finale.
I mean, I'm pretty sure it is this time. It's not as if ABC has pulled it and then aired an odd episode and not for two weeks and then started airing them again or anything...
NYC Prep (Bravo; 8 pm CST). Season Finale.
Wednesday, 8/12
Man vs. Wild; Discovery. 8 pm CST. Season Premiere.
Bear hits the Arctic Circle, where he pees on his skis to get better traction and crosses a river in only his boots to keep his clothes dry.
Thursday, 8/13
Into the Pride; Animal Planet. 7 pm CST. Series Premiere.
Feline expert Dave Salmoni spends six months in Africa trying to help a pride of lions cope with humans.

2 Months, $2 Million; G4. 8 pm. Series Premiere.
Four online poker players in their 20's live in an apartment in Las Vegas with the goal of winning... Well, read the title.
Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami; E!. 9 pm. Series Premiere.
I guess Keeping Up With the Kardassians wasn't enough for these two girls.
I can't wait until there's a show following the life of Bruce Jenner's plastic surgeon...
My Antonio; VH1. 9 pm. Series Premiere.
I usually don't mention VH1 because it's pretty much all shit, but I had to mention the proof of that statement.
You see, this show features Antonio Sabato Jr. trying to find love between 13 women hand-picked by the producers/network, all taking place in Hawaii.
So let's take a poll: who thinks he'll find love among these sure to be skanks? How many of the women will have stupid-ass made-up names (I say 9 of 13)? How many minutes into the premiere before at least one woman has a screaming match with another "bitch/ho/slut"?
But VH1 did score with Sabato. I mean, he's good looking, will probably not wear a shirt, but, most of all, will actually not have something on his head 24/7.
Yeah, Bret, I'm talking about you.
Flava Flav, too.
Mad Men; AMC. 9 pm CST. 3rd Season Premiere.
That came too quickly. (I haven't caught up/started watching yet.)

Giuliana & Bill; Style. 8 pm CST. Season Premiere.
I had never heard of this one before ("season premiere"?), and it blew my mind there's a TV show about E! host Giuliana Rancic and her husband Bill, and how they manage their marriage with her in L.A. and him in Chicago.
Are you f-bombing kidding me?

It's totally wrong to post this. I know damn well an ex-boyfriend or former BFF originally posted this.
But as I watched, I was completely mesmerized by this girl. Dozens of pictures were combined to make this video. --And she poses exactly the same in all of them.
I was, actually, a little freaked out by the end...

More to Love; FOX. 8 pm CST. Series Premiere.
A larger guy has his choice of a bunch of larger women. I like the idea that there are more than just skinny idiots out there trying to make a name for themselves on a dating show.
And because it's on FOX, we can be assured it'll be a classy affair.
Wednesday, 7/29
And because it's kind of a light week, let me mention this great short that TCM will be showing. Set your DVR, watch it live, or record it to DVD; however you see it, it's worth it.
County Hospital; TCM. 6:40-7:00 pm. Movie Short.
Brilliant, insane, hilarious 19 minutes of chaos when Stan visits Ollie in the hospital.

She's Got the Look (TVLand; 8 pm). Season Finale.
The Real Housewives of Atlanta; Bravo. 9 pm. Season Premiere.
Bravo is coming dangerously close to being on my "no mention" list (with MTV, VH1, and CMT) with the continuation of this crap.
Sunday, 8/2
Defying Gravity; ABC. 8 pm. Series Premiere.
Like Battlestar Galactica, this sci fi show is not meant to be be "too sci fi". The focus will not be on aliens and explosions, but on personal relationships and romance (as if sci fi can't have them both...). Vets from Desperate Housewives and Grey's Anatomy created this series starring Ron Livingstone that follows a group of astronauts on a six-year mission to explore seven planets. I don't know if I'm going to actually watch or not, but it does sound interesting.

WEB SOUP: Extreme Office Parkour
I don't know why, but this very MTV-nonsense/x-treme sports-inspired clip from Web Soup cracks me up every time.
I idiots who responded to this clip on YouTube didn't get the joke, I guess.
Just so my much smarter readers "get it": it's a joke. It's "extreme".
Just laugh, okay?

A New Show to Get Hooked On
My computer/movie guru Tom told me I needed to try G4's Web Soup.
I told him I did try it (I try all The Soup-related shows), but I didn't like it.
He said "Try it again."
I did, and... I didn't like it.
Tom didn't give up and told me to try again.
And after I watched last week's marathon of 4-5 episodes, and, especially after seeing last week's new episode, I gotta say I'm liking it.
Each episode gets better, and Chris Hardwick is no Joel McHale-- yet-- but he's getting better (and I'm sure will find his own path).
Check it out. G4 on Sunday's at 8 pm CST (and a number of repeats throughout the week).
And heeeeere's a clip:
