31 unknown facts about Chuck Norris:

1. Chuck Norris' tears cure cancer. Too bad he has never cried.

2. A man once asked Chuck Norris if his real name was "Charles". Chuck Norris did not respond, he simply stared at him until he exploded.

3. Rather than being birthed like a normal child, Chuck Norris instead decided to punch his way out of his mother's womb. Shortly thereafter he grew a beard.

4. Chuck Norris built a time machine and went back in time to stop the JFK assassination. As Oswald shot, Chuck met all three bullets with his beard, deflecting them. JFK's head exploded out of sheer amazement.

5. The original theme song to the Transformers was actually "Chuck Norris--more that meet the eye, Chuck Norris--robot in disguise," and starred Chuck Norris as a Texas Ranger who defended the earth from drug-dealing Decepticons and could turn into a pick-up. This was far too much awesome for a single show, however, so it was divided.

6. Chuck Norris was the fourth Wiseman. He brought baby Jesus the gift of "beard". Jesus wore it proudly until his dying day. The other Wisemen, jealous of Jesus' obvious gift favoritism, used their combined influence to have Chuck omitted from the Bible. Shortly thereafter all three died of roundhouse kick related deaths.

7. Chuck Norris once shot a German plane down with his finger, by yelling "Bang!"

8. When Chuck Norris plays Oregon Trail, his family does not die from cholera or dysentery, but rather roundhouse kicks to the face. He also requires no wagon, since he carries the oxen, axels, and buffalo meat on his back. He always makes it to Oregon before you.

9. Chuck Norris can make a woman climax by simply pointing at her and saying "booya!"

10. Before each filming of Walker: Texas Ranger, Chuck Norris is injected with five times the lethal dose of elephant tranquilizer. This is, of course, to limit his strength and mobility, in an attempt to lower the fatality rate of the actors he fights.

11. Chuck Norris does not sleep. He waits.

12. When Chuck Norris' wife burned the turkey one Thanksgiving, Chuck said, "Don't worry about it honey," and went into the backyard. He came back five minutes later with a live turkey, ate it whole, and when he threw it up a few seconds later it was fully cooked and came with cranberry sauce. When his wife asked him how he had done it, he gave her a roundhouse kick to the face and said, "Never question Chuck Norris."

13. Chuck Norris took my virginity, and he will sure as hell take yours. If you're thinking to yourself, "That's impossible, I already lost my virginity," then you are dead wrong.

14. Chuck Norris is currently suing NBC, claiming Law and Order are trademarked names for his left and right legs.

15. Chuck Norris once tried to sue Burger King after they refused to put razor wire in his Whopper, Jr., insisting that that actually is "his" way.

16. Chuck Norris once roundhouse kicked someone so hard that his foot broke the speed of light, went back in time, and killed Amelia Earhart while she was flying over the Pacific Ocean.

17.Chuck Norris does not have AIDS but he gives it to people anyway.

18. Chuck Norris has yet to get a Jeopardy question wrong. Jesus has missed two.

19. Chuck Norris sold his soul to the devil for his rugged good looks and unparalleled martial arts ability. Shortly after the transaction was finalized, Chuck roundhouse kicked the devil in the face and took his soul back. The devil, who appreciates irony, couldn't stay mad and admitted he should have seen it coming. They now play poker every second Wednesday of the month.

20. Chuck Norris's girlfriend once asked him how much wood a woodchuck could chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood. He then shouted, "HOW DARE YOU RHYME IN THE PRESENCE OF CHUCK NORRIS!" and ripped out her throat. Holding his girlfriend's bloody throat in his hand he bellowed, "Don't fuck with Chuck!" Two years and five months later he realized the irony of this statement and laughed so hard that anyone within a hundred mile radius of the blast went deaf.

21. Chuck Norris recently had the idea to sell his urine as a canned beverage. We know this beverage as Red Bull.

22. To prove it isn't that big of a deal to beat cancer. Chuck Norris smoked 15 cartons of cigarettes a day for 2 years and aquired 7 different kinds of cancer only to rid them from his body by flexing for 30 minutes. Beat that, Lance Armstrong.

23. The chief export of Chuck Norris is pain.
After much debate, President Truman decided to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima rather than the alternative of sending Chuck Norris. His reasoning? It was more "humane".

24. If you can see Chuck Norris, he can see you. If you can't see Chuck Norris you may be only seconds away from death.

25. Chuck Norris found out about Conan O'Brien's lever that shows clips from "Walker: Texas Ranger" and is working on a way to make it show clips of Norris having sex with Conan's wife.

26. Chuck Norris once went to a frat party, and proceeded to roundhouse every popped collar in sight. He then drank three kegs and shit on their floor, just because he's Chuck Norris.

27. One of the greatest cover-ups of the last century was the fact that Hitler did not commit suicide in his bunker, but was in fact tea-bagged to death by Chuck Norris.

28. At the end of each week, Chuck Norris murders a dozen white people just to prove he isn't a racist.

29. Chuck Norris punched a woman in the vagina when she didn't give him exact change.

30. Hellen Keller's favorite color is Chuck Norris.

31. Chuck Norris once pulled a bus full of school children teetering over the edge of a cliff back onto the road with his bare hands, saving everybody inside. Even as they cheered, he screamed, "I'm not your savior!" and headbutted the bus over the edge, sending them all to their horrible doom.

2005-12-02T02:17:00.000-05:00

Before I let you guys read this I gotta tell you this; I wasnt at the Lady Sov. show tonight so I cant really confirm nor deny that this shit went down. But this dude is my dude and Im pretty sure if hes publicly bitching, something went array.

tonight was a fucking disgrace.
first we're told to show up early, then we're made to wait in the cold for two hours because they can't get their shit straight. then we're treated to dj trainwreck and friend playing off a laptop. i don't even think dave p played, let alone diplo (they fuckin knew he couldn't be there.) then some local plays so/so beats for way too long. they oversell the place by at least 50%, then lady sovereign comes on with her mic being maybe half as loud as the mix, and it's feeding back. she couldn't even get through a song. naturally she walks off in disgust. i don't blame her for a second.
and as far as the shit notepad they had people writing their email addresses on, which the door guy was dropping pages of on the dirty ass floor, i can remember one other time, at the saddle creek dvd viewing (ok, that was free) writing my email down hearing they'll have another night, and we'll get free promo stuff, and never hearing shit back. so i'm dying to see what happens this time.
this isn't the first time i've been less than satisfied with an r5 show (not b/c of the talent), but i always kinda defended them to myself. after tonight i need to vent.

on a positive note lady sovereign was cool enough to stand out front and talk to some fans and sign some stuff. i got the poster signed that i stole off the wall. she asked what she should write, i said anything you want. she wrote sorry. she should not be the one apologizing.

ouch.

Get down girl, go head get down.

2005-12-02T00:51:00.000-05:00

Just sayin. Nancy O'dell from Access Hollywood is pretty fucking hot. Nancy, I solute you in all of your sexymilfness and I propose this; Me and you. A box of wine. My office ::coughbedroom::. Next Thrusday night?

sayin.

M.I.A?

Lady Sovereign

UK grime’s Great White Hype/Hope. Lady Sovereign aka the trash-talkin’18-year-old and self-described "white midget" has more buzz than tinnitus right now, thanks to a series of hott British singles and appearences with Dizee Rascal and The Streets. Her latest EP, Vertically Challenged will be released over here in the US on Chocolate Industries on November 15 (including a remix done by beatie boy Ad Rock). Her full length with the tentative title of "Straight Up Cheeky" is expected for Spring 2006 but which lucky label will release it? Well, Universal’s got its tentacles wrapped around her worldwide, but in the U.S.A., the pint-sized princess has been in talks with Def Jam, having been flown out to New York City by the label’s president, Shawn Carter. Yes, that’s right: Jay-Z is trying to sign Lady Sovereign!?!?!?!??! Apparently, the pair had a meeting in the Def Jam offices, and Usher, Teairra Mari and Antonio L.A.Reid were also present. Jigga asked her to make an off-the-cuff performance for the heavyweights in the room, where she delivered a taste of her humorous verses. Hov was so impressed, that after an hour he offered Sov the chance to start working with some big names as soon as she was ready. She is now starting to cut some tracks in US with Missy Elliott's team. Talk about big pimpin’...And yes we know she looks like Sporty Spice.

We Are Holding Half Of The Remaining Tickets At The Door. We Will Start Letting People In (for $8) Early At 9PM. It's A Very Good Idea To Show Up Around 9PM To Get In. This Is To Make Sure The Room Isn't Half Full All Night.

Show Up On Time And You Will Be Fine !
PARTY ON !

Been hearing a lot of hype about this chick. Just listened for the first time. Kinda sounds like M.I.A. to me. Then again Im just now starting to get into the UK Grime thing. Definitly puts a rowdy vibe in the air and I can definitly dig that. So yea, Silk City is probably gonna be backed to the brim with dudes with trucker mustache's and a bunch of fanny pack wearing hipster chicks.

Sounds like a party.

"Its the mother fucking REEEEEMIIIIIIIX!"

2005-11-29T21:43:00.001-05:00

People already seem to be hatein'. It's 50 Cent vs. Queen and they so creatively dubbed the Mix tape or whatever it is...Q-Unit. I mean im not a producer or DJ or whatever, but I know what I like.... and Im feelin this shit. Fiddy looks ilke a god damn home owner on that picture though. I will say this, its probaly the best hes ever sounded. Im still waiting for my Phish Vs. Big L mix tape...whos up to it?

most overrated "rapper" ever? Sorry, stupid question.
Listen for yourself.

ya dig?

to blog or not to blog.

2005-11-29T19:05:00.000-05:00

That is the question.

OK its official. Im on the blog thing. In a quest to do things the easy way, I always seem to go the most difficult route...typing HTML and all that shit is just a waste of my got damn time. (look at me acting like I got shit to do besides getting drunk and listening to good music!)

BIG ups to my man at 51:51 for the help on setting this tricky shit up. Check his shit out. Hes pretty much on the same tip as myself.

so yea...more blogs and stuff. Im gonna be posting up all kinds of shit from mixes posted up on the net that I happen to get my hands on to new release info from DJs and whatnot, but most importantly where the damn parties are at.

You know how I do!

Until then, download this and pop it in your iPod or whatever. Its a live recording of Cosmo Baker and Peanut Butter Wolf from the old Remedy party at Fluid. I cant stop listening to this shit.

More to come...Keep it locked.
