This one’s too good to pass up writing about!

Comedic genius Sacha Baron Cohen(Borat, Ali G) has done it again, but this time rapper Eminem got a whiff of Bruno’s cheeky side!!!

Bruno crashed last night’s MTV Movie Awards! It was EPIC!!!

(If you’re not familiar with the upcoming release of The Bruno Movie, than check out the official Red Band trailer HERE)

I can only imagine what was going through Eminem’s head when all of this was unfolding!

It's a small world after all!

It's a small world after all!

I, like many others in this world, grew up watching classic Disney movies. Many of them do not sit well with me anymore seems how I am now an adult. Although, recently I learned about a lost piece of Disney history that may have never resurfaced if it weren’t for the persistence of Roy Edward Disney.

The Ressurector

Roy E. Disney - The Resurrector

I’m referring to the short animation known as Destino, it was a collaboration between the surrealist painter Salvidor Dali and Mr. Walt Disney. The result is something that is both beautiful and dizzyingly surreal! Thanks Mr. Dali!

Ahead of Their Time

Ahead of Their Time

Production of this 6-minute animation was started in 1945 and unfortunately was ditched due to financial difficulties within the Disney corporation. In 1999 Roy E. Disney, Nephew of Walt Disney, unearthed the unfinished short and called upon Disney Studios France to complete the project. After it was finished it finally premiered on June 2, 2003 in Annecy, France and was nominated for an Academy Award for Animated Short Film.

Full film, great quality:

Interpret This! [Quotes] pt. 4

It’s that time again! Time to Interpret This!

…However there’s a catch…I am changing up the format, I’m no longer going to reinterpret the quotes…I will leave that entirely up to you.
But, what I am going to do is comment on the quotes…(pretty much what I was already doing). My goal is to get people to think more deeply about life by introducing them to quotes that they normally would not be exposed to…fair enough, right?

Interpret This!

Word!

Warning: Insane Clown Sodomy ahead! … only kidding!

I don’t even know where to begin with this next example of Internet ‘Kookery’…

Actual Screen Shot

Again, carrying on with the theme of dangerous dogmatic ideologies(say that 5x fast!), this website is a prime example of how warped some one’s mind can become. Who knows if this holy garbage is supposed to be taken literally…if it is, then that’s a big problem!

Welcome to Pastor Harry Walther‘s apocalyptic Internet fun-house…of sorts. The website is called Satan’s Rapture and can be found HERE.

It is littered with neo-pseudo-gospel, trying desperately to link the ‘Swine-Flu’ to the bible, the Apocalypse, and the Obama Administration.
Can you say: “EPIC Fail?”…(yes we can)

———-

In my opinion,  from the facts that I’ve gathered about the ‘Swine Flu/H1N1,’ is that out of 330+ million citizens in the United States around 140 cases have been reported, so far. The number of cases in Mexico have far exceeded 140 and I believe that is largely due to the 3rd world living conditions found in that country.

Anyone who has vacationed in Mexico or have visited a ‘border town’ know precisely what I’m talking about.
I mean shit, the majority of their water is supposedly un-drinkable, red flag! Also, judging from the increase in illegal immigration over the years I can only assume that there’s a reason for leaving and that’s possibly due to the sub-standard of living.

What’s even more interesting about is that scientists around the world believe that this H1N1 strain of the flu is relatively mild. Annually, around 36,000 Americans die from the ‘regular’ flu, mostly elderly people and infants. That’s a mortality rate somewhere between 0.06% & 0.24%, not very significant.

The hype surrounding the ‘Swine-Flu/H1N1′ can be accredited to the “fluff coverage” that the mainstream media has given it.
Don’t believe the ‘boob-tube’ use some Logic, people!

Ok, lets get back to the point of this post…for those left scratching your heads here is some juicy stuff for you to look over.

Information on Pastor Harry Walther(A.k.a Richard Landes):

He does not have his own Wikipedia.org page(yet), but he does have a user account(which he probably uses to delete information about himself). It can be found HERE.

He appears to be a regular over at BlogTalkRadio.com and his profile page can be found HERE.
You can listen to his Halfass Backward rants about Obama and the Swine Flu…Yada yada yada…Blah blah blah.
All you’ll find there is a bunch of scare tactics…

As a matter of fact I was just listening to his podcast and heard the so-called Pastor say this:

“When people are very scared, they’re like sheep. You can herd them, you can get them to do whatever you want. People accept anything when they’re scared…” -Pastor Harry Walther
(at the time it was said he was talking about Obama’s ‘scare tactics’)

Although he is talking about Obama, I’d like him to sit back, take a deep breath, and take a look at his own halfass scare tactics. He is doing exactly what he is trying to warn others against. That’s a hypocrite if I’ve ever seen one!!!

His ideas/views are entirely far fetched and nowhere near being plausible. Although, I can slightly agree with him on one thing…that something fishy is going on within the Obama Administration…

If it weren’t for his constant reference to the ‘Bible Code’ then I would dismiss him as a regular nut! But, since he uses the Bible it makes my job easier to point out the dangers of such dogmatic ideologies.

If you’re the religious type and would like a deeper analysis of the garbage that comes from Pastor Harry Walther, then read HERE.
(I’m not religious, but thought it might be an entertaining read for the ‘Bible-Thumpers’ that find themselves here)

WORD!
