Where's my Red Bull?
I need to clear the layer of dust off this blog. The lack of posts resulted from me taking on two freelance projects, doing an internship, trying to launch a start up, making a short-film, managing senior year in high school, and writing college applications. Sometimes I mix it up by adding in some sleep. I should have time to blog again in the next few weeks, so stay tuned and thanks for checking out what I have to say.

The Newest Thing I Know
If you’re somewhat Internet savvy or just converse with other people chances are you have heard Louis C.K.’s rant on how everything is amazing but nobody is happy. There is one point in the video where he discusses the newest thing that he knows (in his case wifi on an airplane.) This brings me to my main discussion point. One of the human race’s biggest accomplishments was the successful landing of a human being on the moon. Let me restate this because I made it sound rather mundane and run of the mill; there was a guy dancing around on another fucking planet forty years ago. It seems like launching a low orbit Space Shuttle is the maximum exposure we get to genuine space travel in 2009. Of course there are numerous reasons for this halt in progress, mostly monetary, but landing a man on the moon is still the newest thing I know despite happening forty years ago.

What HOUSE's Success Says About Us.
HOUSE recently became the most popular television show with 81.8 million viewers in 66 countries, this might seem trivial information but it speaks leaps and bounds about us. [source] The show follows an intellectual doctor who has a short temper and the kindness of a teenage girl after you shred her Jonas Brothers albums. The character limps around in a triumphed fashion and always solves the “unexplainable” disease before the episode’s completion. The success may be attributed to this program for the reason that all people think they are smarter than the pack. Wallow in a cinema and the phrases of defaming others’ intelligence will bounce around. HOUSE is a rather technical show with medical terms in abundance, despite the lack of proper understanding, the audience is not talked down to and the show does not explain every term. People feel smart. A simple example comes to mind, glasses do not increase one’s IQ score, however a person wearing them is considered smarter. [source] HOUSE is the glasses of 81.8 million watchers.

Spencer Pratt is a Genius
You’re not hallucinating, that’s actually the title. You think he’s the biggest asshole on the planet? Pratt would agree with you for the very fact that he is playing that character. Much like Mickey Rourke in the Wrestler, it is easy for him to portray this character as it is in his DNA. This situation closely resembles the scene in 1984 where O’Brien admits he is working for Oceania knowing full well their morbid and delusional concepts. On the show I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! he went awol after his teammates went through his stuff. He lashed out, much for the camera’s galore. “How dare you touch my wife’s hair product, I designed the label myself,” he exclaimed, plugging Heidi’s hair product at least twenty times in two minutes. The comments after the show discussed this incident, it was picked up on blogs, and talked about on television. He won free marketing. How many 25 year olds do you know that get paid $100,000 to show up, yes show up, at a night club? Not many. Next time you bad mouth him, know that you are falling in line to his successful plan.

Whale Wars focuses on the Sea Shepherd crew who try to prevent illegal killing of whales in Antarctica. This is a noble cause, however they think it’s a good idea to throw acid grenades on Japanese shipping vessels. Then, they’re shocked that the Japanese throw harmless warning flash grenades back. Did I mention their captain fakes being shot? Wait, it gets better (or worse) two of the Sea Shepherd crew decide to board the fishing vessel hence trespassing into Japan. What’s ironic about the whole mission is that they inadvertently damage the environment and the whales by throwing acid bombs into the ocean and wasting an exorbitant amount of fuel for acting like sophomoric violent hippies.

The Russians built some mind-blowing pieces of equipment in the Cold War. The economic boom the Soviets experienced for a short while let them invest in ridiculous things like this jet train… yeah a f***ing jet train. I bet this would’ve beat EuRail & Amtrak.

I remember seeing these cars all the time back in Hungary. They’re still popular today, as they’re built by Germans meaning they’ll easily survive a few dents or a nuclear fallout.
