"Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die."

"Bad taste is simply saying the truth before it should be said"

"I have always been a huge admirer of my own work. I'm one of the funniest and most entertaining writers I know."

Do the Jellyfish!

You're missing out on a real swell happening if you haven't seen the Sting of Death. I've owned this flick for years and might have forced some of you against your will to watch it, but you're better for it. It's Florida's everglades 1965, and a half-man half-jellyfish goes after some swingin' kids that just want to dance and have a ball.

The real kicker is that Neil Sedaka wrote the theme song. Dig It!

"It isn't funky or anything that's junky. It's something swella! The jilla-jalla-jellyfish!"

Good Clean Fun.

Exotica, the Power of Tiki compels you!

The first time I remember hearing any form of Exotica was around 1995 when Combustible Edison did the soundtrack to Four Rooms. In a very backwards manor, I later got turned on to the original gods like Denny, Les Baxter and Arthur Lyman. Dig it!

It was one heavy duty scene...

Pass the bee, brah...

Tuesday Weld

I watched Lord Love A Duck for the first time in years. Rock, Rock, Rock is another favorite and Wild In The Country(1961) is when Elvis plugged his 26 into her 18. There's something to be said for natural beauty, especially nowadays when it's become somewhat of an endangered species. Here's to a refreshing break from the desperate, self-obsessed mutants that pass themselves off as a suitable girl today.

Go Kart World

The slick track at Go Kart World was drunk tits. It's located in the heart of Niggsville, just across from Beanersberg but it's all good when errrbody out on da track. You can't help but laugh your ass off in a Go Kart. Somehow after my second or third round my shit digital camera broke in my pocket, clearly caused my how much ass I was hauling.

The Wedge...

...was going off! Some dude got smashed into the rocks and died. Bummer.

Old Days

You're fucking out!

I'm fucking in!

Shoe Fence

A few years back the legendary Shoe Tree on Hwy 62/Rice Road was burned down and buried under a mound of dirt. In response, the undying spirit of the River Rat has sprung the Shoe Fence. 

Only the best.

Where the Sun shines.

Toobin'

For 32 years diehard River Rats have gathered on the Parker Strip to kick off the summer with the tube float of all tube floats, the Great Western Tube Float. No boats allowed, just tubes, or floats built on top of tubes. Each year has its own theme and this year we're going Hawaiian Style. I'm going for a trophy this year.
