Jose Canseco is "Vindicated"

Seriously folks, who would've thought after all the backlash and shit that Jose Canseco's first book Juiced that'd he'd write another one. This one will apparently focus on A-Rod's alleged (performance enhancing) drug use, and Mark McGwire's deal for immunity before he took the stand against Congress. Sadly, I'll read this.

No Country For Old Men

Before I even say anything about this movie, let me just say that I read the book No Country For Old Men by Cormac McCarthy before I even decided to watch the flick. Therefore, I had to watch it with a somewhat unopened mind. However,

I dug the fucking flick.

It was a Coen Brothers' flick. What's not to like? Javier Bardem was fantastic, Tommy Lee Jones was Tommy Lee Jones, and Josh Brolin was surprisingly great.

It wasn't the same exact thing as the book was, that's fine, but there wasn't a bad thing about the movie.

Therefore, it's my number two of the JD's Top Five Flicks of the Year.

The List:

1. Gone Baby Gone
2. No Country For Old Men
3. The Kingdom
4. To Be Determined
5. To Be Determined

Leyritz charged with DUI/Manslaughter.

Jim Leyritz former New York Yankee (and World Series Champ) has been charged with a DUI...and manslaughter to boot. He was involved in an accident while drunk that killed a 30-year old woman. Not...good. The woman's name was Fredia Ann Veitch, and she was a mother of two. Jesus fuck.


Here's the article from ESPN.com.

Misha Barton arrested for DUI and weed smokin'


Well well well. Yet another female badass who gets into trouble with the law, and yet another fucking mug shot. Once again, I will use the word I seldom use, and call her a cunt. Mainly because she fucking is.


Viral marketing for Cloverfield?

Uh...

Okay. I understand the usage of viral marketing. Cartoon Network did it for their big show Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theatres (!) with their mooninites all over Boston. But I don't understand this one. I do not understand why they're doing this marketing in San Fransisco and not New York City where the trailer for the movie takes place.

Stupppppidity.

Joe Strummer & the Mescaleros

Awesome song everyone should listen to is "Minstrel Boy" it's long, but it's so fucking good, it makes your ears want to weep.
