Where the self-obsessed get serious about silly
I'm too wacky to be hip.

      • ------------------------------------- How this blog got its name

      ------------------------------------ There was a large painting of Evel Knievel shaking hands with Richard Nixon. It hung in the Mayors office. Late one evening after everyone went home. I took it down to the lab. I zoomed in on Evel’s left eye a 100x and enhanced it. It was an address. I went to the address. It was a modest, 1970’s style, split level ranch home in the suburbs.

      ----------------------------------- Inside I found a dead parrot lying on a waterbed. I revived the parrot with some saltines and adrenaline. We became good friends. The parrots name was Randy. One night a few years later while Randy and me played Gin Rummy, he sang me a song about a fire. The title of this blog was never mentioned but I sensed it, and Randy confirmed it by giving me ‘THE LOOK’.

            thedailynoose: “Controversial ad campaigns is just what the Beef Council wants,” argues Dr. Lee Renaldo of Columbia University. A point that BEEF Council Spokesman M.W. Shirley does not argue with. “Studies have shown that high volume beef consumers (50+ lbs yearly) enjoy the carnivorous and predatory nature of eating beef and as opposed to the other meats,” states Shirley. As a result the Beef Council, under the advisement of the advertising giant King International, opted for a more primal feel to this years print campaign. And preliminary numbers show they just may have caught the bull by the horns. Beef sales are up 13 percent from last quarter. Though it should be noted the new print ads are only being tested in the fall issues of Sports Illustrated and The New Republic where the readership is predominantly older, male, and Caucasian.
