Today was an interesting day.  Today we get a new Tasha Clip posted on her personal account - on heep.  I can just listen to her sing all day long.  And, she plays the guitar far better than I ever could.  On top of this we got another message from her explaining, I believe, is going to be part 5 of their vacation clip.  Once I get her permission, I will post it here. - Like I did with the Batman Clip.

Then, we got a blog post from Tasha on her myspace.  She hasn't posted on there in a while and it was great to glimpse what she is thinking and going through.  I just wish she was having a more enjoyable and stress free time.  It seems from her blog post that she is under a huge amount of stress and I think that she is going to be entering a new phase in her life soon.  Tasha did say that Dishka is going somewhere in September.  So, are we about to enter a new phase?  Is the Tasha and Dishka partnership going to end or at the very least diminish?  These next two months are going to be very stressful for Tasha.  I hope that she is able to take some time to regroup, reflect and relax and then she can think about what her next steps will be.  I wish her the very best!

Batman video explained - BY Tasha

First here is the link to the video that is being explained by Tasha.

thanks for the blog it's cool the ideas you told people to write! wish we had more time and freedom to actually to something of our own.
the batman video we filmed before the trip. i know nobody understood it- soory... i'll try to explain:
it's a metaylost TV channel scheduler:
we laugh at israeli shows. batman is the movie - batman begins- in hebrew the word begins also means- hitting on girls
and we also havea reality show: dancing with famous stars - instead dishka is dancing with a vacuum cleaner
the show where we're being cruel to one another is a show in israel where people are loosing weight- and in hebrew it also means get down on someone. it's hard to explain cause in english it wouldn't make sense.
the last show name is - a blast of a house- in hebrew again- where people fix houses and making them look better. so we just took shots of blowing houses up,
in the last frame we wrote- this channel is canceled- metaylot only in heep. by the way metaylot means- travelers =)
hope i helped ))

____

It sure did help.   Thank you Tasha for the explanation! We really appreciated it.

Man, Ace is on FIRE today!  This post is just freaking cool.  Now, granted this is a response to Beckham playing for some Soccer team in LA.  This is a reader's response to the Paper announcing Beckhammania ranking equal to Beatlemania!

A Reader Rebuts The Seattle P-I's Claim of Beckhamania

But, but, dude! It was in the newspaper!

Trimegitus just doesn't seem to be jumping on the Becks Bandwagon like I have:

As to "Beckhamania" -- that'll have to wait until Americans can give a crap about soccer. Which will be approximately 45 years after the heat death of the Universe. Americans don't like soccer because soccer is a pathetic excuse for a sport.

First of all, it's too low-scoring. Who the hell wants to go to a game where half the games are 1-0 or 2-1 at the end? Americans, who can count in double digits even when drunk, prefer games which challenge their numerical powers. We like football, which typically has scores in the teens and twenties, or basketball, with scores in the same range as the Federal deficit. Even baseball can generally crack the 5-point barrier.

Second, it's, how shall I put it, a game for pussies. Maybe that's why women's soccer is better regarded here. Looking at soccer uniforms it's obvious that this is a game in which injury is not even a theoretical possibility. The only protective gear is shin guards, and occasionally knee pads. Those are used to keep from getting chafed when you fall to the ground and roll around in agony pretending to be hurt until the ref awards a penalty. At which point you bounce right up and resume play. Even basketball players are more physically aggressive than soccer players.

Third, it is a game for children. That's what it was invented for: to give English schoolboys something to do between being flogged and sodomized at boarding school. That's why it's played in short pants.

That's why children in America take to soccer, and look adorable out on the field in their little shorts, running from end to end, kicking futilely at the ball, and pretending to be hurt. But American kids grow older, enter puberty, and put away childish things. They take up grown-up sports like football, baseball, beach volleyball, or (if lesbian) field hockey.

Fourth, it is generally played by foreign people. In this country we prefer games invented here. Also, foreigners turn every god-damned sporting event into some kind of geopolitical shadow play like the Olympics.

Fifth, it is impossible to start a new professional sports league in America because all the good names are either taken already or declared off-limits by liberal morons. We already have expansion teams in baseball and football with erection-shrivellingly generic names and logos (Heat? Panthers?). The days when sports teams had locally-significant names and beloved nicknames is already fading, and soccer teams get saddled with names so boring they can't even be insulted. This is because the owners know the team won't attract a following and will be moved to some other city of suckers, so they don't dare tie themselves to a particular place.

Sixth, as I believe I mentioned, it is played by foreign people.

Seventh, it is a staggeringly unsexy game. Baseball and football players wear tight uniforms (for the ladies) and have cheerleaders. Basketball uniforms reveal lots of skin. Take your girl to the game and even if she's bored all those muscles and tight buns on the field will make for a fun post-game wrapup if you know what I mean. Soccer players wear baggy shirts and baggy shorts, and tend to have hairy, skinny legs. Women soccer players have better legs, but it's notable that Brandy Chastain had to tear off her shirt to get anyone to give a damn about her team winning a game.

Therefore, soccer is an inferior sport, unsuited to American tastes and talents, and will never become a major subject of interest here. Which means that unless he can talk his wife into trying out that diamond dildo and then "accidentally" posts it on YouTube, nobody's going to know or care who David Beckham is.

I know many foreign people will now complain that I don't understand how great their sport is. They are wrong, and moreover they are foreign people.

2 No I didnt write it.  I got it from my Absolute favorite blog Ace of Spades. I even included the link at the very top of the post.   That blog is a must visit.  The comments make the original post that much more enjoyable.  GREAT STUFF.  If you LOVE South Park you will love Ace of Spades.  They even have an Ace of Spades Life Style centered around Thai Tranny hookers and Valu-Rite Vodka! ROFL!

Well it's HAPPY FRIDAY...yesterday was payday.  Today my boss is out on her way to San Diego and we are only half staff here...and I am so freaking bored! LOL  I had to get in early today because someone has to give out paychecks to our field crews - so I was here @ 6am its now 9am.  I did just about everything I needed to do today (enter bills, reconcile our fuel database, give raises to employees, I even went to starbucks on a breakfast run for some of the office crews).  Now its almost 9:30 and I find out we might be getting some payments in, but already got that nailed down...and I am just so bored now.  I check to see if there are any new clips - nothing..so I watch some of the older Tasha clips - chatting with Chris on Yahoo.  Well at least the back up stream works!   Such is my day so far LOL!

WHOO!!!! Man!  I know I have talked about my upcoming vacation to Israel before...but today I just took a major leap forward.  I just got confirmation of teaching three classes and that equals the cost of the tickets!   So!  Now, I can start nailing down dates and such!  My anniversary date at work just happens to be my Birth Day, so my vacation must occur after May.   Wow!  I really expected some of the classes to be dropped but to my pleasant surprise none of them were!  So, while I have 9 fairly stressful weeks ahead in teaching, it will all be worth it in the end!  Not only that but I will have enough extra funds to do some minor tweaks on the house (Must get ceiling fans) and I would like to get a nice security door that will allow me to have the front door open yet not let my cats to try to escape.  (Cornelius wouldn't, but Curio would - he almost did once - long story).   Now, I have to get my sister to start hunting for inexpensive flights and start working on my passport, and other essentials.  Also, I have another class scheduled in September so that begins the saving for my spending monies!   Right now the only things I have from Israel are souvenirs from my grandfather's trip back in the 1960s.    Man I am excited!!!!

Hehehe - the worst kept secret!

Ahmad Jibril: When Abu Mazen came to Damascus with his team, I asked them: "What happened to the investigation into the death of Abu Ammar [Arafat]? The Israelis killed him. He was my colleague ever since 1965 and used to sleep at my home. He and I followed the same path." Is it conceivable that when Rafiq Al-Hariri was killed, all hell broke loose, even though he was just a merchant in Saudi Arabia, who later entered politics, whereas the death of Yasser Arafat, who for 40 years had been carrying his gun from one place to another, is not investigate? Is this conceivable? They were silent, and then one of them said to me: "To be honest, the French gave us the medical report, that stated that the cause of Abu Ammar's death was AIDS." I am not saying this, they did. Now they pretend that they miss Yasser Arafat, and complain that [Hamas] entered his house in [Gaza] and so on... I say to every honorable member of the Fatah movement that he should be happy that we got rid of the plague, which had been imposed upon them and upon the Palestinian people. The Fatah movement now has an opportunity to renew itself.

Thanks to IsraelyCool!!!

So long and thanks for all the Arafish!

Some moron humor

This is the sort of humor I like - Moron humor the kind that Ace of Spades Life Style seems to excel with.  It just cracks me up so much and puts me in a very good mood.

Well, I am so glad this thread was not put up before I knew of the girl's vacation - it would have been in bad taste.  But now that they are home and this is a new thread I don't have that concern (now when I go on my vacation that will change!)

Anyway this thread was from WickedPinto's blog and the subject is "A Long list of things I never want to hear my pilot say..."

Here are some of my favorites:

Allah Akbar!
Okay, who brought the Valu-Rite? (This is a reference to Valu-Rite VODKA)
Shit, that was the last beer.
Weeeeeeeeeee!!!
Sure hope this thing can float.
“have we secured large collection of poisonous snakes? Good, lets take off.”


Some others I can think of
Did you have the Fish or the Chicken?

Captain Oveur: Joey, do you like movies about gladiators?

Captain Oveur: You ever been in a cockpit before?
Joey: No sir, I've never been up in a plane before.
Captain Oveur: You ever seen a grown man naked?

Ummm....Now I am wondering what complications this will bring if there is an upcoming war.  Ynet News is reporting that this.  Even hopefully soon to be Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu is supporting the involvement of Jordan (and he even wants Egypt) in solidifying Fatah's hold in the West Bank.   Now, this just sounds a bit scary given the distinct possibility of a 4 front war in the summer.  I hope this stabilizes the West Bank but it would just be better if Jordan just re-annexed the West Bank.  I know I shouldn't even ask, but damn how much worse can this situation get?

White Town - Your Woman

This is a very interesting song...a man singing to I guess a guy that he can never be his woman.  It's a cool song! 

2nu - This is Ponderous

Now, if you like surrealistic songs - this is the one for you.  I loved listening to this song in the early 1990's.  It's very visual.

Enjoy!

A few days ago I posted a clip of wishlists of Tasha's clips.  Today's discussion (and I hope we get more than last time LOL) we should discuss what makes Tasha's clips distinctive in a style all her own.

Many directors have their own distinctive styles - Quinten Tartinto (sp.) and his jump around unorganized style, Peter Jackson and his cinematic style - what kind of stylistic queues do you think Tasha tends to use to in a repeated affect?
