Simian Mobile Disco

There comes a time when ravers grow up! This is Simian Mobile Disco!
Rub it all over yourself on a sleepy day!

Watchmen- watch more? watch less!


As in I wish there was less of it to watch. Seriously Watchmen could have been the best superhero movie ever made IF IT WANS'T THREE FUCKING HOURS LONG! And I DO NOT need to see that blue guy,the world's biggest smurf, get all pouty on planet Mars while owl-man is getting it on with his girlfriend in the giant floating metal fish blimp.
Furthermore I felt the storyline compromised the original prose and there were many glaring omissions.
In conclusion why does Hollywood feel it's necessary to remake The Neverending Story?
It could be the only perfect movie ever made.

PS-
Some of the Watchmen trailers have been cut to this epic tune by MUSE. Cherish this song. It's peeing your pantaloons good!

BREAK SHIT


I realise that in these tough economical times it's not cost savy for bands to trash their equipment on stage, never the less it's awesome when they do. Few bands can compete with THE WHO (they basically invented rock n roll destruction) but here are some acts that really like the smashy smashy.

So this is what it's like when DOVES cry...tears of JOY!!


Sorry to interrupt Ed's lame-ass self help blog below but I think there are more important and pressing matters at hand, for example the DOVES ARE ABOUT TO RELEASE A NEW ALBUM AND MAKE THEIR WAY TO MY NECK OF THE WOODS! They're probably coming to you too but I really couldn't give a shit.
Bottom line- they ooze liquid awesomeness out of every orifice (I know I once went camping with them...just kidding). Some of their songs make me want to suck my thumb and drift off to the land of nod while other songs make me jump around like a little kid in the pouch of a kangaroo riding a pogo stick on the moon.
And here's their latest video!


Doves are so rad they're basically like a giant middle finger to all other acts from the UK.
Yeah, we're looking at you Chris Martin...you got something to say about it?!?!?!?
Didn't think so. Bitch.

Sleepy Slap


Ok minions of cool, we all just lost an hour of sleep as many of us across North America sprang forward this morning. It’s a great thing it means, brighter evenings, patio drinks, late night debauchery, and in many cases warmer weather although; for those of us living in the Pacific Northwest, today’s dump of snow makes that seem a little less believable. But more importantly for many it signals a season of lack of sleep. More fun shit to do, but the same amount of time to get it all done means a big fat sleep debt. So I have a list here of a few things you can do that will help you maximize the sleep that you can get, so that you don’t pay for it at school or the office through out the week.
• Exercise regularly. Some form of exercise for 20 to 30 minutes at least three days a week is ideal – but be sure not to exercise too close to bedtime.
• Cut down on stimulants. Consuming stimulants such as caffeine in the evening makes it harder to fall asleep. Stimulants also prevent deep sleep and increase nighttime awakenings.
• Sleep on a good bed. It's difficult to get deep, restful sleep on a mattress that's too small, too soft, too hard or too old. It won't provide the comfort and support you need to rest well.
• Don't smoke. Smokers take longer to fall asleep, awaken more often and spend less time in deep sleep.
• Unwind early in the evening. Try to deal with worries and distractions before going to bed.
• Don't go to bed stuffed or starved. A stomach that is either too full or too empty may cause physical discomfort, making it difficult to sleep through the night.
• Eat foods that can help you sleep. If you're hungry and can't get to sleep, try eating foods that contain the amino acid L-tryptophan, such as milk, eggs, tuna fish, cottage cheese and poultry.
• Develop a sleep ritual. Make the transition from nighttime to bedtime easier by doing the same things each night just before bed.
Some of them are a lot easier than others, I have my own little trick a good dose of melatonin from the health food store, gets you into a deep sleep faster, and getting regular doses of Bcomplex in pill or shot for keep your energy up! (but I am not a doctor I just know it works for me) so get out there have fun, and try and get a little sleep now and again.
