Artist Corner: Greg Hollimon Interview

In case you are wondering who the immutable Greg Hollimon is, you may remember him from a great show on Comedy Central circa late 90's early 2000's, called Strangers With Candy.  An excellent show, and an odd show which many believed to be short-lived. Greg Hollimon played Principal Blackman, a quick witted and quick tempered black man...who just happened to be a principal.  Thanks to the power of Facebook and a stalker's determination, I decided to track down Hollimon and proceed to catch lightening in a bottle...I tried to interview him. 

The interview runs long, hey it's my first time...I was excited.  Unfortunately, I scared off Mr. Hollimon who clearly had to fly off and tend to the needs of the many. "Probably the jazziest choice", but you will notice that Hollimon has led quite the interesting life. From his 'first time' to who he hated most on Strangers with Candy, Hollimon spills the bean. Now if only I could have paid the man.

*I would like to thank Greg Hollimon.  He really is an inpiration...that and I totally did not think he would do this little interview!

Enjoy

SNL: Palin Rap

Saturday Night Live - Update: Palin Rap

I know you want to look away, but you can't.  Props to Amy Poelher who's like 13 months preggers delivering both rhymes and bucks.  I have no idea what this weekend has done for Palin and the rest of the GOP's campaign, but I'm guessing it couldn't have hurt all that much. [shrugs]

EnglishRussia - Soviet Trade System

Hmm...how odd.

It really is amazing isn't it?  Well...this photo probably doesn't do it much justice.  Click the linky and be amazed by the photos of a time that should never be forgotten.

Silly Video "Tekken 6: Bloodline Rebellion"

Coming from someone who use to play fighters competitively and now 'semi-religiously' it is really intriguing and sad to see the route the new Tekken has taken. If all anyone within this specified niche sect can say, 'Well...at least it looks better than Tekken 4' then got big problem.

It seems like Namco never quite recovered from losing its Tekken fans since four [which was 6 years ago mind you].  Look at this trailer! Almost everything in this "Speed Racer-esque' colorful explosion-fest looks a bit gimmicky.  The backgrounds look great, but Xiaoyu with a magic wand? And one of the most rediculous last name to grace a fighter...Alexanderson.

I actually am psyched to play this game,

Video Game Reviews - Soulja Boy Tells Them?

Here we have Soulja Boy explaining what could only be loosely described as a video game review.  As a preface, I know Soulja Boy is still a teenager and has a lot of money and is an avid gamer...I know these things, but do you have to record yourself every time you feel your brain has 'yet again' spun pure gold?

This is what blogs are for people.

EnglishRussia.com - Cucumber Pickers Of Belarus

Thanks to the lovely crew over at EnglishRussia I have now been further cultured. I guess this is still an existing job in which there are a couple tractors per farm and people get paid below a decent wage to pick cucumbers for a living.

After the jump...more shots of our cucumber picking friends...
