What a difference a week makes around here. Last week it was +12deg c and now its -25 deg c. Sure is nice bein in a place where things go from one extreme to the next. Todya for example its currently 12:04am on november 27th. The temperature right now with the windchill is a brisk -23 deg c ( -9 deg F) and the temperatures for the next week will be between -5 and -12 deg c or to my american friends 10 and 23 deg f. Taking the bus up to work today I saw this oriental lady who looked like she was ready for sibera. she had *inhales * mucklucks ( heavy winder boots), snow pants, long snow parka (covers down to the knees) , heavy gloves, long scarf, snow goggles, touque ( kintted hat) and she had her hood up. *exhales* on, and heres me in work boots, dress pants undershirt, long sleeve work shirt, fall jacket, tougue and gloves on. Was I warm, of course, was she, ohh brobably boiling but with weather extremes here, its hard to decide what to wear.

GOD I LOVE THIS COUNTRY !!!!!!!!

D I M E B A G ! ! ! !

Its been almost 3 years since we lost Dimebag Darrell and we still remember to this day we remember him. Several bands have dedicated albums to this fallen guitar god. I remember when I heard he was taken from us. I was workin at the Battleforeds and District Co-op and and my heart just broke. On that day metal died and a new era began. Some call it the post dime era. His influences can be found everywhere from songs by such badns like Machine Head, Trivium, but most of all it one person very hard. Zakk Wylde, Zakk and Dime were like brothers. Zakk dedicated the song "In This River" to Dimebag, "I was looking at the lyrics, and I just said, 'Man, this has gotta be Dime's tune,' so we just made it Dime's song" says Zakk. The song gained a new importance and was improved from its original version during the live performances also with the addition of more solos, with Zakk playing with the Dean Razorback guitar Dime had given him. He dedicates each live performance of the song to Dimebag and, several times, nearly cried on stage when playing the song. He has also stated it will be played at every Black Label Society concert as long as he is touring, and I can say that it is true, as zakk said

" this song will never leave the black label set"

The vid for the song features the childhood versions of Zakk and Dime riding bicycles together and diving in to a river. At the end of the video, the grown up version of Wylde emerges, and Dimebag's doesn't appear as child or man, symbolizing Darrell's death. "The river is a metaphor for life in general, all the bullshit that you deal with from being a kid growing up. The whole thing's just about life and death." says Zakk.

On May 17, 2007 Dimebag Darrell was posthumously inducted into Hollywood's RockWalk, the only sidewalk gallery dedicated to honoring those artists who have made a significant impact and lasting contribution to the growth and evolution of rock 'n' roll.

Heres to ya dime. gone but NEVER forgotten !!!!!!!

Some People Just Need To Be Killed

Some people just need to be killed, I mean come on people. For example the lazy jackass who parks in the handicaped space because its close to the door, meanwhile the entire parking lot is empty. Just because you drive a $100,000 2008 Cadillac Escalade and think your gods gift to reality just doesn't make ya special. Then this idiot goes and buys groceries at 10:45pm at night expecting everything to be there for you only to find that its not there and then go bitch about the fact that you have to come back for it orrr even better yes, go and ask for a raincheck . Goddamnit people you only work 8-9 hours a day what do you do with the rest of it. Sit at home, watch jerry springer, soap operas of download porn !!!!

Then theres the very stupid lazy dolt who goes around and steals money from a memorial fund for veterans in front of a recording video camera. I mean come on, for jesus sake get off your pogey collecting ass and goto work, theres plenty of jobs out there. Sure ya wont find that monday to friday 8am to 5pm $75,000 a year job of your dreams, but damnit ya gotta start off small and get experence or else you wont ever find that cushy dream job.

If we could just hand these free bitch-slap coupons to stupid people, the world would be a better place to be living in !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
