Robert Plant

Posted by Lady Diva on October 12th, 2008

“Move with me gently - oh so slow
Hold me and maybe we’ll never let go…never let go”

Everyone who knows me knows that I’m in love with Robert Plant. Well I’m STILL in love with Robert Plant after all these years.

When I say the world love, let me explain that a little. I don’t mean love as in being with Robert for all of eternity (However, I am open to that idea.) But my husband is the one I plan on spending eternity with, or at least the rest of this lifetime. I mean love as in his voice, his music, it all really speaks to me.  Continue reading Robert Plant

Metal Lives

Posted by Lady Diva on February 3rd, 2008

I’m pleased to announce that metal is not dead! A kid and his dad were in the store today. The kid was twelve. I know this because they were looking at a sticker that had a skull with a 13 in it. The kid said he should get it because that’s what he was going to be. His dad laughed and said you’re not thirteen yet.

Anyway that’s not what this is all about. This is what it’s about - here we have a twelve year old, about to turn thirteen and become a teenager, wandering around the store with his dad. Metallica’s “Some Kind of Monster” is playing, and the kid is singing along. Then he tells his dad that’s his favorite song. Right on. Then I notice that the kid is wearing a Led Zepplin t-shirt. And it looks like a good fit, a youth size perhaps. Cool. Dad is also wearing a cool t-shirt by the way, two skeleton girls sitting back to back. They look sorta like the mud flap girls. Then Dad and Son were laughing together while they perused the rude t-shirts.

There is hope for the future after all.

Bemidji Skate Park?

Posted by blukattt on October 2nd, 2007

The other day we got a good flyer in at the shop, so I’m going to pass the message along, and get the word out.

Support Bemidji’s Skate Park

We are on a mission to build a free public skate/bike/in-line park in Bemidji, MN. The City of Bemidji has one-time money to spend, but wants proof that it will be used.

If you would like to support our effort for a free skatepark, you can go to our website and answer a few questions. The more people we get to fill out this survey, the better our new park.


Bemidji Skate Park!

Please pass this link on to as many people as you can.

I’ve been waiting for someone to step up and get a skatepark idea moving for several years now, in fact ever since we started carrying skate stuff. I applaud these people’s actions, and encourage everyone that reads this, even if you don’t skate, to go to this link and voice your support.

Ew

Posted by Lady Diva on August 26th, 2007

I was having a conversation the other day, with my Mom of all people, about what it would be like if we lived in a clothing optional society. Sounds kinda cool at first. Like, ladies, if you got too hot, you could just remove your shirt, or pants, if the case may be. No problem. The guys wouldn’t mind I’m sure. Or, if you spilled spaghetti sauce for instance, on your crisp white skirt you could just take it off and run it to the cleaners on your lunch break, and no one would bat an eye. Nice.

And guys, imagine all the beautiful naked women strolling along the sidewalks. Of course there might be a few more fender benders going on. That’s not so great.

Ethan Haas is…

Posted by blukattt on August 11th, 2007

I don’t know, I went here and got stuck on the home page. I mean, if you’ve ever seen a site that interactive, please share it! Not only is it a chat window, but then it’s a 2-d world as well. lol

I found a site that has some phrases to type into the chat to turn your character into other things like horses, a mutant camel, a felon, etc.

UPDATE:

I found a couple more sites that pertain to the enigma that is Ethan Haas:

Ethan Haas Was Right - A flash site that has you figuring out 5 different puzzles.

Jayisgames - A site that has some hints to the Ethan Haas Was Right alternative reality game.

No escape from stupidity

Posted by blukattt on August 9th, 2007

I hate people; specifically idiots that find vandalism “Huh huh…cool…”

Last night I was so proud of myself. I had gotten done playing WoW and made it to bed before 3am (A personal record for me). Around 4:30, one of the girls woke me up telling me to go check outside because she heard glass breaking outside.

And the award for best role model goes to…

Posted by blukattt on August 1st, 2007

…not Britney Spears.

I never write 2 posts in one day, but it seems the headlines are teeming with people that need a large opera singer dropped on them.

It seems that Ms. Spears has once again assaulted a photographer, this time her rabid pitbull of a bodyguard stepped in. Read more here

If you want more reasons to hate Britney:
Allegedly tried to have son’s teeth whitened
Fires Assistant as a scapegoat
OK! magazine shoot not OK
Can someone put a cork in her already?
Does anyone really believe the “method-acting” excuse?
Tribute to dead aunt, or just mad as a March hare?

This concludes my rant on Britney; let’s hope Lohan or Hilton do something else stupid so I can continue to have something to poke fun at. Or better yet, perhaps this current Blonde Brigade can recruit new members, maybe Hillary Duff, or Britney’s sister Jamie-Lynn.

Nicole Richie announces her pregnancy

Posted by blukattt on August 1st, 2007

OMG

Okay, enough with the signs of the Apocalypse already, we get it! It’s bad enough we have been plagued with these blonde, anorexic, crackhead, partying, I-come-from -a-rich-family-so-I-don’t-know-what-responsibility-is types, but now Tuesday Nicole Richie confirmed in an interview that she is in fact pregnant.
Another shocker? She also said she was 4 months in already. What?! Don’t you think that being that far along, and given that she weighs in at like 15 pounds, you’d notice it? (I’m envisioning a toothpick skewering an olive)

Well, at any rate the spawn is on it’s way, so make sure you get those emergency bunkers dug, and pick up a fresh batch of cyanide pills.

Lionel Richie must be proud…or disgraced; I forget which means which.
