Bernice was fired for an inappropriate sexual relationship with Ronald McDonald. This was a subtle satire on the Clinton impeachment.
In a later advertisement, the vulture demanded Ronald pay back the feather. Because he was no bird, he couldn't. The vulture instead pecked out a pound of fat. This was a subtle jab at the critics telling them to cut fat from their fries, which was a subject of controversy at the time.
It was subtly revealed towards the end of the Uncle O'Grimacy campaign that Uncle O'Grimacy had a severe dependence on shamrock shakes. Critics claimed that although Uncle O'Grimacy was portraying an alcoholic, and that the Irish stereotypes were being taken too far. Also, it was revealed that the reason Grimace originally had 4 arms but went down to two because of a violent altercation with his uncle after drinking too many shakes. This also was seen as portraying an unsavory stereotype.

Who is Yaje Popson?!
Randomly searching through youtube today I found this clip of some kid skating a bunch of spots at venice beach/ santa monica beach:
I thought it was pretty cool, so I decided to do a search on this kid.
It came up with this:
Wow. I didn't know little kids could skate like that. I always figured they just jumped on handrails and down stairs. This kid is amazing. I can only imagine what will come from him in the future.

adendum to the last post.
Early today when I was out doing errands I saw a dude get hit by a car. Then later I was driving and a bike collided with my car and took the kid riding it out. Oddly prophetic for a random allusion to an old skateboard video.

Break your leg. I hope God makes you break your leg.
Right now! Go ahead. Get run over, you son of a bitch.
A couple new clips.
My old roommate Jeff just put some cool videos up on youtube:
This video hyped me up so much. Just a couple of guys going out and skating SF like the unlimited playground that it is. Some really good skating in there too.
Here's another cool one. More skating in SF. Some cool hill stuff and more. Dylan has a clip in there bombing a hill, which is a rarity. The guy skates hill in the most natural way ever, until a camera is pointed his way, at which point he usually falls. I'm in there too somewhere.
Older footage filmed by Mike, editted and shared with the world by Jeff. Some footage from a trip to LA from when I lived in SF. Good memories.

BCCC3
Chapter 3 of Bonesaw's chillin' christmas classic. All filmed on a cell phone around SF. It's all about skating and getting grimy on the streets. Which, from what I know, is what makes life worth living. Check it:

Fred Gall
The first time I saw anything of Fred Gall I was about 13. I think at the time, he was about 16 or so, and was blowing up. I saw the interview from the Thrasher pictured above. In it, he was an essentially unknown kid from the east coast turning SF into his playground. The switch 5-0 on hubba on the cover was just the beginning of what he did on that ledge, and around SF. At the time, doing anything switch on Hubba was insane, and he did a handful of things on it. For video evidence of all of this, check out his part in The Alien Workshop video Time Code (1996).
Here is a visual of the part, even though the audio got cut out by the lovely people at Warner Music Group. I highly suggest finding a copy of the original and checking it out. The part ain't the same without the black sabbath part:
Without the song, the train at the beginning makes no sense
Years have gone by since that part and Thrasher video, and people and times have changed. You will no longer see Fred Gall going to the hottest spots and one upping (or ten upping) the last person to skate it. Fred has grown from there. While the physical part of his growth may have to do with his apparent love of beer, his skills have grown due to a certain eye that only comes from a true love of skateboarding and a curiousity about how he can use his surroundings. The dude still lives in New Jersey, far from the media and industry epicenter of skateboarding in California. He's still putting out video parts and skating, and from the looks of this clip of him checking out the most recent issue of Thrasher, he still loves his job. And that is what makes him so awesome
Fred Gall, scummy Jersey dirt and legendary skateboarder lets us know what is up with skating.
If Warner hadn't censored the music, you'd be able to see a lot more clearly how this recent video part pays tribute to his 10+ year old part in Time Code.

Skeletor on youtube.
When I was a kid, He-man and the Masters of the Universe was my favorite show. Since it had been about 24 years since I had seen an episode of the show, I had long since forgotten why it is so awesome. Then I saw a video, and it occurred to me that Skeletor is the best villain ever. Let's appreciate his amazingness for a moment:
Weird drug survey.
I somehow managed to end up taking a survey about how being jewish affected my drug use. As I took it it got really odd. It started to feel like that survey Mitch Hedburg talked about with questions like "In the last six months have you used PCP or sugar?" Basically, in terms of drug use, you could choose in terms of how often you did it were "Always," "often," or "never." After not being sure whether I wanted to feel like a drug addict who is often apparently under the influence of most drugs, or I wanted to feel like a liar who has tried all sorts of drugs that he claims to have never done. I put down that I was always under the influence of every drug. Then the question asked whether my faith affected whether I used drugs or not. My answer? Yes.
Here are some sample responses I also put for this study:
*19.

Have you or anyone you know ever experienced a life threating

situation while being under the influence ? If yes, please briefly describe ?
Yes. Coke dealers were trying to come and kill me after I found
their stash in some stereo speakers and sold most of it off for far
under market value and couldn't reimburse them for it. The rest
of the coke I used, and was in top form, not sleeping and thinking
sharply for three straight days straight until it all "blew" over. I still
have no idea how they knew it was me.

I would have a drugs block party. I'd get them drugs that are
in as clean of a state as possible and have them experiment
with them in a safe place. After this they would know what
the good stuff felt like, and how tampered drugs were different
. Also, they would know which drugs they thought were ok to do,
and which ones they did not think were ok to do. Also, we
could have a bbq and a clown for the children.

An ode to crazy old people.
As children, people are generally comfortable in their skin. The world is new and different and the need to fit in doesn't matter. Soon a desire to conform or get along with people becomes more and more important. We fold to social customs and act in certain ways in order to fit into the general social order of our surroundings.
Then, at a certain age, some point in the 60's, all of that goes out the window. Suddenly, they don't give a FUCK about what you think. They have seniority over the whole world, and those who they don't have seniority over can go to hell anyway. I've been in the car with older people driving, swirving all over the road and talking about how dangerously all those assholes are that they keep nearly hitting. You tell them that they are driving a bit erratically and what do you get in return? "Fuck you! I've been driving twice as long as you've been alive." They don't give a fuck. I've had an old man come at me with his cane because he didn't want me skating in front of his building. Considering the fact that he needed a cane to walk, you gotta give him credit for the effort.
A lot of this bitterness has to do with the fact that at a certain point life becomes relfective. People stop moving forward, and take a step back and think about what they have done or haven't done, reminiscing and nostalgically recreating glorious years of the past. Most things that haven't been accomplished either won't be, or don't matter at this point. Not all people do this though. Some people are still living it up, and creating new adventures and memories. This post is dedicated to them.
First we have Rip Torn:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100130/ap_on_en_mo/us_people_rip_torn_arrested_1
Text: "SALISBURY, Conn. – Actor Elmore "Rip" Torn has been charged with breaking into a Connecticut bank and carrying a loaded handgun while intoxicated.
State police say the 78-year-old Salisbury resident was arrested Friday night after police found him inside the Litchfield Bancorp with a loaded revolver.
The "Men in Black" actor has been taken into custody and booked on charges including burglary and possession of firearm without a permit. He is being held on $100,000 bond and is scheduled for a Monday appearance in Bantam Superior Court.
Last year, Torn was given probation in a Connecticut drunken driving case and granted permission to enter an alcohol education program. He also has two previous drunken driving arrests in New York.
A spokesman for Torn did not immediately return phone calls Saturday."
Looks like old age can't stop ol' Rip from roarin! Rip Torn was arrested yesterday for apparently breaking into a bank wasted while armed with a gun, and he's 78. 3 out of my 4 grandparents didn't even make it to 78. This dude is out there drunkenly figuring out how to break into a fucking BANK. I'll admit that I have broken into places, most of them being my own residencies when I have locked myself out, and know that breaking into buildings in general is pretty tough, but a bank?Are you kidding me? Those places are as secure as it gets. This dude got in while wasted, and he was born while Hoover was President. God only knows why he thought he needed a gun to do this, but it certainly adds to the overall awesomeness of the stituation. The way I see it, this man shouldn't be arrested, he should get a medal from the AARP for showing that old people can be raging drunk assholes just as well as any young whippersnappers out there.
The article points out that he has had 3 DUI arrests, and was ordered to go to some sort of substance abuse program. Fuck that though. Somebody probably should take his driver's license away, by why make him stop boozing? Is it going to effect the job he is retired from? Is it going to make him lose new friends that he doesn't care about making? Is he going to die prematurely from it? No. Fuck that. At a certain age you should be able to get as wasted as you want on whatever you want. Rip has made it clear that not only is it alright for older people to get drunk, but it is far better. If some 20-something movie star got arrested after breaking into a bank wasted while brandishing a gun, I wouldn't care.
Other videos of crazy old men:
Basically, Buzz had no choice but to sock the dude.
People who try to commit suicide and fail can't do anything right.

Sometimes people just kill it in life. An example is the following. A skinny pale dude dressed up like King Hippo from Mike Tyson's punch out. For reference, a picture of King Hippo is posted below him.
The Boondocks.
Amazing satire on the Iraq War. Wish I could use it to teach satire, unfortunately too many n-bombs get dropped, and a subplot about prison rape might not go over well with parents or administrators.
old blog
just looked at my last attempt to blog, and despite some cheesiness, it had some cool stories of the good old skate days. I had a lot more stories to tell of my time in SF, but google bought out blogger or something and I couldn't get into my account anymore, and it died.
It's got a lot more words, and a lot less pictures:

Dogs.
My last post was actually my first post on this, and was pretty much a bummer. To make up for this, and to set a better tone for the future, I present sweet pictures of dogs being ridiculous:
What a shitty week.
First Howard Zinn, then J.D. Salinger. This week two voices that have greatly influenced me have passed away. I am scared that soon Mark Twain will rise from the dead and let everybody know that he is back, only to die and disappoint me further.
Take a minute to remember each:
Zinn:

Salinger:
