MIDNIGHT TRAIN TO HILARIOUS.

The American Idol finale had this hilarious clip of Gladys Knight and the Pips... but the Pips were replaced by Ben Stiller, Jack Black, and Robert Downey Jr.  The best part comes at 2:05.  It's subtle but keep your eyes on Jack Black.  Stay strong Buckos!

FRIDAY'S BABE, BEER, AND A TUNE.

Heading into a 3 day weekend Buckos.  Yup.  And what better way to kick the shit off...
-

This young woman is Kelly Brook.  She used to be the girlfriend of asshat Billy Zane.  But, being the tenderfooted fancy boy that he is, he f*ed it up - and now she's single!  ThankyouJesus ThankyouJesus.  She's English too, so I know she'll dig my powerful American charms.  Slap a little hair gel in the old mullet, spritz some Dakar Noir, and bonk her in the kisser with a cheeseburger and this bitch will be like putty ... like putty I tell ya'!
-


The brew is Saranac Black Forest.  The verdict is .... good, not great.  It's a dark beer but isn't heavy.  The name made me think of a sweet, desert-ey beer before I'd tasted it.  It didn't taste like a dark beer at all however.  It tasted more like a medieval forest, with spells and ogres.  Plus, it made my nuts feel funny... and not a good funny either.  Beer Advocate rated it a B "good" based on 331 reviews.
-

These degenerates are Trust Company.  They have a pretty good category of swell tunes... despite looking like the dudes who stole your car radio.  And tonight's tune is their cover of "Rock The Casbah."  No idea what a "casbah" is but the fucking rock it.  


Here's a bonus picture of Kelly Brook.  Hey, way to go Billy Zane!  Ya' dope!

FREE STUFF DAILY & A FEW GUYS WHO DON'T NEED IT.

The value of the dollar is heading south these days.  I personally think we should scrap the dollar and just switch to using Euros.  The hell with it.  Until then, here are a few sites where you can get good deals or downright free stuff:


1.  Absurdly Cool - offers free stuff DAILY.  Set up a fake email account and check it out.

2.  The Coupon Clippers - grocery coupons for products you pick, sent to your door.  Sweetness.

3.  Travel Zoo - discounts on airfare, hotels, rental cars, or anything else you need to travel.  

Another dandy little item I found today was a clip of the oil company executives sitting before congress reporting on how much their personal incomes were last year.  In the end it really doesn't matter - it's just political theater - because these horseshit hearings never result in any changes in gas prices.  But it is fun to watch them squirm... I mean, shucks, I had to dress up like a Asian prostitute to buy some gas last week so I'll take whatever I can get (don't ask... long story).




I don't know why I posted a picture of the Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders with this post except that they make me feel potent.  I can feel my basket oysters a' tossin' in their shells Buckos!

TOP 5 HOT ALICE IN WONDERLANDS.

Whoa.  Apologies Buckos.  I wasn't able to update the site yesterday due to some craziness that involved Ben Gay and a weird looking hemorrhoid.  There's a big fat moral coming out of yesterday but I'm going to wait until I can walk right before I try and figure it out.
-
Today we're back to the hotness.  And since yesterday was a trip down the rabbit hole, I'm featuring Alice in Wonderland.  Let's follow the rabbit you spiffy bastards...

Yeah, I know it's Paris Hilton.  But who's better to lead you through an acid trip with talking animals and playing cards?

Once again, the power of the thigh-high stockings... I know why that stupid cat was smiling.

I'd follow her down the rabbit hole.

Tea and scrumpets?  Hmm... don't mind if I do.

"Off with her dress... er... head.  Uh... just take the top off and rub the bunny on your boobies."

2.  Never make your first meal of the day spicy sausage with blueberry donuts.

Eat smart ya fantastic bastards!

THE ZEN INVESTING OF WARREN BUFFETT & 1 STOCK TO BUY.



For anyone who read yesterday's post you've learned a valuable lesson about blogging while intoxicated: don't drink a six pack and attempt to summarize international investment strategy.  I don't know what had me more hung over... drinking all night or trying to understand Warren "The Buffer" Buffett.  Fucked my shit up.  So tonight I'll try to boil Mr. Buffett down to his basics, make it coherent,  and offer 1 solid stock that he LOVES - for good reason.

-
So, his basic approach to investment is as follows:
-
1.  Buy what you understand.  If you don't know what the product is or how the business is run, don't get it.

2. Buy stock in companies that have simple products that you know what it will look like in 10, 20, .. 80 years.  Wrigley's chewing gum is going to look and function the same in 2108 as it does in 2008.

3.  The best way to pick a stock is to sit in a room and think.  If you don't have a good idea of what to do after thinking privately about it, advice from others isn't going to help.

4.  Buy one GOOD stock per year and ride it to it's potential (ie., hold it for the long term).  Brokers get paid per trade (ie., activity).  You make more money for in-activity (ie., holding stocks for long periods of time).

And Buffett's favorite stock pick?  Coca Cola.  It meets all the above criteria and - most importantly - Coke has no fucking taste memory!  What does that mean?  It means you never get sick of drinking it.  So if you have 5 Coke's today you'll probably have 5 tomorrow and 5 the day after that.  That's fucking ingenious!  Multiply that by the people in China who drink the shit like it's Jesus Juice and you've got a winning business strategy.  I'm throwing some Coke into my portfolio tomorrow.  So, until then, have a Coke and a smile Buckos!

THE ZEN INVESTING OF WARREN BUFFETT

Warren Buffett is unquestionable the greatest investor of our time.  Shares of his holding company sell for approximately $150000/share and are by far the highest priced shares (ie., most valuable) shares on the stock exchange.  Dude is an interestng mix of conserative investing philosophy and extreme intelligence.  Usually smart guys get cocky and tend to bet the farm.  But not good old Warren.  Anyway, he recently gave a talk to a bunch of MBA's and here are the highlights:

  • The chains of habit are too light to be felt until they're too heavy to be broken.
  • You [ordinary people] do the same things as I do, but I travel a little differently.
  • Do what you love NOW... otherwise it's like saving sex for old age.
  • Take a job as if you're independently wealthy.
  • The best company to invest in = a pretty castle with a wide moat  and honest, able kings (i.e, a sound company with substantial advantage over competitors and honest CEO's)
  • When looking at a company to ivest in, find simple products that you know, and how they will be 10 years from now.  For example, chewing gun companies will be doing the same thing in the same way 10, 20, 100 years from now.
  • Value "share of mind" - a product brand name that illicits an emotional trigger/response.  Example, guys will buy Hershey's chocolate on Valentines Day instead of the generic, cheaper brand because the mark-up in price is not a barrier to purcharse.

This stuff is a little hard to follow if you've already got a 6 pack of brewskis on board.  It's probably better for all if I just studied these nifty little ideas when I'm a little more sober.  I'll finish up the summaries tomorrow.  Dang this crapola is complicated.
-
Peace and chicken grease until tomorrow .
