Mike Watt -- 'Ballhog or Tugboat'

Ahhh, what a great fucking record.

Funny and creepy at the same time. "I took this boy to the brick oven."

1998 Nike Advert

The joke at the time was they wanted to include Maradona (nice Cantona cameo, btw) but he could never make it through Customs. Ha!

Eazy E Recording from 'Straight Outta Compton'

Watched this again the other day, holds up well. Deftly avoids falling into cheesy melodrama on the one hand or overwrought hero worship on the either. Keeps it real and the gritty is what makes the movie work. This was one of my favorite scenes of that whole year.

I never get tired of Ricky Jay.

The History of Asia

Ollie Bye is my latest addiction.

Les Liaisons Dangereuses (full film)

Coming soon on Criterion, I believe, but you can still catch it for free on You Tube. This is still my favorite version of this tale.

Akira the Don -- 'Clockwork Elves'

Not what I thought it would be but still fun. (Never noticed how much Terence McKenna sounds like George HW Bush)

Chuck Palahniuk with Joe Rogan

Some are funny, some are horrifying, all of them are intriguing.

Time-Lapse Map of Nuclear Explosions

1945-1998

Sterling Hayden on The Killing

God damn, what a weird fucking dude, huh?

Shandling v. Gervais

Yeesh! This is as cringeworthy as anything I've ever seen.
