Skateboarding cannot be corrupted by socialism. This is a good thing.
It's true. All skateboarders work hard to land tricks. Harder tricks needs to be tried over and over before success. Attempting very difficult tricks is also extremely risky. If a skateboarder is...
Conservatives and Liberals who try to shut down points of view they disagree with are pricks.
Obviously this piece was sparked by the Rush Limbaugh controversy where he called Sandra Fluke (pronounced Fluk) a slut. Liberals immediately called for an apology because they were so outraged that an...
The Blood Bowl just completed it's remodeling. It is twice the size with a vert wall, over-vert pocket, big volcano and new hips. In my opinion it is the best indoor bowl in Minnesota.
Everything is all better now. The unemployment rate is decreasing and Obama's approval rating is back to a manageable level. Obama and his progressive posse should be thanking Republicans.
Obama promised the unemployment rate would not surpass 8% if the stimulus was passed. In 2010 the unemployment rate skyrocketed to over 10%. When...
Minneapolis, Minnesota. 3rd Lair Skate Park. 1st HD film. Robert Bogema and The Rad Conservative.
Making a connection between the Zodiac killer and Mitt Romney may seem a little silly.
At first.
Mitt Romney was born Willard Mitt Romney in Detroit Michigan on March 12th, 1947. His middle name Mitt allegedly comes from his father's cousin who played pro-football...
The Wall Street Journal did a piece on another uncomfortable reality for the Progressive movement. The "Self Esteem Movement" isn't working.
The government screws everything up. When it comes to skate parks, this is especially true.
Politicians get contributions from local business' like contractors in exchange for their support; the politicians give those companies preference when it comes to public building projects. Most of these companies have no business building skate parks and no brains for designing them. This is the worst kind of crony capitalism because it endangers the public...
As previously mentioned, , The Dark Arts Blood Bowl in Minneapolis, Minnesota is under major construction. The new additions will double the bowl's size.
Because the owners of the Blood Bowl are fine, upstanding members of society, they...
As previously demonstrated, the internet is full of half-truths and flat out lies. It’s a good thing to carefully research the facts given to you by political pundits to seperate fact from fiction. Websites like Snopes.com meticulously go through political discourse objectively to separate fact from fiction. Or is that last sentence just a load of lemur crap?
There’s been a lot of Romney hating going on when it is clear. Romney is going to be the Republican nominee. I am perplexed to see tweets from my conservative friends starting to say things like, "We need to stop Mitt Romney." This kind of thinking is...
Usually I find PETA to be disgusting. Throwing blood on old ladies is the only reason I need to think you're a nut-pie. That being said, I love animals. I often comment to friends on how bizarrely sensitive I am to the suffering of animals. I've been and continue to be the proud friend of many wonderful furry characters. I miss you Bootsie.
I was looking through the liberal sites trying to get some outrage flowing when I came across...
The 5 on Fox News at 5pm Eastern has all but taken Greg Gutfeld away from Red Eye. Maybe it's because he was on vacation this week but it is starting to seem like Andy Levy has taken over the hosting job.
There are definite differences between the styles of the two hosts. Gutfeld is like William F. Buckley Junior on acid.
Sometimes I come across information on the internet that blows my mind. Ray Kurzweil and his theories regarding the limitless possibility of computers was one. I went nearly insane from elaborate conspiracy theories, complete with video, about reptilian aliens...
If the Occupy protests had a message, it was that millionaires should pay more taxes. Most millionaires in this country are successful because of hard work. Most of them own businesses that they started without any inheritance. This fact escapes the leftist echo chamber. To the left, most millionaires sit in penthouses while doing cocaine and collecting dividends from "old money."
"The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets Of America"s Wealth"...
I understand cause and effect. Countries like England went down the road of spending as a means of economic stimulus. What they ended up with, was massive debt.
"Topping the European debt league is Greece with 142.8% government debt to GDP ratio, followed by
I had a strange encounter with Media Matters, "Senior Fellow", Eric Boehlert. He was lamenting the delusion that the mainstream media is only jumping on shifts in Obama's approval rating when they trend downward. Bohlert, a consistent partisan Obama zombie, was cheerleading Obama's "strong" approval rating of 47%.
This impressed "The Propaganda Czar" enough to tweet thus:
"rember, when Obama's Gallup numbers dipped below 40% it was BREAKING NEWS. today he's 47% w/ Gallup; pundits (and Fox!) yawn; #cantwin" (Boehlert December 26th, 2011 12:16pm)
Boehlert, in his infinite incompetence, could not wait to champion the rise in Obama's approval rating. He was happy. At last, the brilliant action of Barack Obama was about to pay off.
On December 30th, Gallup made an update:
An analysis of the definition, diagnosis and drugs in ADD/ADHD reveals one scary fact: there are thousands of children being exposed to dangerous brain altering chemicals based on arbitrary and subjective criteria.
According to the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual...
Corporations cannot force you to use their product or service. If you don't want to watch Fox News you can always change the channel to MSNBC. We only have one government. We are forced to be the consumers of its laws.
We can't decrease the power of the corporation by increasing the power of the government. Campaign contributions are given to congressmen by lobbyists who represent corporations to influence lawmaking. This is a fact. There is no getting around this.
The best way to reduce the power these corporations have over the legislative process is to...
Warrior, directed by Gavin O'Connor, is a great story about two fighters' rise to success. Like The Fighter (with Mark Wahlberg and Christian Bale), Warrior is a based on a true story about two brothers (played by Tom Hardy and Joel Edgerton) and fighting. Unlike The Fighter, Warrior is about MMA (mixed martial arts) and the brothers are both going for the title.
The story was good. It kept me interested throughout. It's hard to comment further without ruining the movie. Let me just say that the
Kim Jong Il is Dead... Tired of people saying he's dead. He's alive people, I had breakfast with him this morning at Denny's.
Let's get to the political news that really matters. Jesus Christ. Did you see what Barney Frank is sporting? Straight up man boobs. Clearly he has begun some sort of gender reassessment regimen. He recently announced that he will not be seeking reelection. It was speculated that this was because of the steep decline in support of Democrats. Now it is clear; Barney...
I rented Cowboys & Aliens on iTunes. I do not go to the movie theatre anymore because I hate dealing with behavior of other people. Don't get me started.
Cowboys & Aliens takes the classic Western story and turns upside down. The movie starts out as a normal western with a tired plot. Then the Aliens arrive. The prototypical western film protagonist and antagonist are forced to team up against a larger foe.
For what this movie sets out to accomplish, it achieves. It's a movie about cowboys and aliens. Don't expect Shakespeare. Having said that, I think the plot was well crafted and I was kept interested throughout.
The Blood Bowl is under major construction and is going to double in size and triple in gnar quotient. This is the best place to skate in Minneapolis. Beers, buds and skateboarding, what more could a guy want?
This was a great session. I usually skate on Wednesday nights and there is quite a large crowd. This was Friday night and it was just Cesar, Schmitty and I. It was a good night to go for an invert on the high wall with hand...
